Quick Strikes: Do you want to see Jon Cooper floss?

I’ll get to Jon Cooper flossing in a moment (and the reason why Baby Shark is permanently stuck in my head), but first, let me discuss how the NHL All-Star Game made history last night. Here’s the story.

Nathan MacKinnon hurt his foot, so although he came to San Jose to hang out and enjoy the All-Star Game, he couldn’t compete in the Skills Competition. Instead, he invited someone to take his place: Kendall Coyne Schofield, a player for the USWNT and the Minnesota Whitecaps. She agreed to take his place, and became the very first woman to compete at the NHL All-Star Game.
