"One of the series most memorable is when the gang celebrates Festivus. Festivus, for our uncultured readers who might not know, is the Costanza family's fake (but it's real to us) holiday on December 23rd. It includes decorating a pole and performing feats of strength. Another Festivus tradition is the airing of the grievances when you sit at the table and tell everyone how they've disappointed you the past year."
"We're not thrilled with the drama that has surrounded building the rink for the Milan Cortino games. Construction delays meant the rink might just be ready in time, without the chance to have a test run of hosting another event. Then we heard the ice might be a few feet short? Doesn't "regulation" mean anything to the workers in Milan? They probably just looked at each other and said "mi sembra buono", which is Italian for "looks good to me" and called it a day."
"First Aleksander Barkov gets a freak knee injury on the first day of training camp that requires surgery and is, more or less, season ending. Then perpetually injured Devils superstar Jack Hughes suffers a "freak hand accident" at a Chicago steakhouse during a team dinner that requires surgery and sidelined him 18 games. Fellow Panther Eetu Luostarinen was out week to week in No"
Seinfeld ranks among the greatest sitcoms and memorable episodes include 'The Face Painter' and the Festivus celebration. Festivus traditions include decorating a pole, performing feats of strength, and airing grievances where family members list annual disappointments. NHL fans adapt Festivus to air hockey grievances, mixing fandom with humor and team pride, notably for the New Jersey Devils. Olympic hockey in Milan-Cortina encountered rink construction delays, risked lacking test events, and faced reports of ice being a few feet short. Several NHL players suffered freak injuries this year, including Aleksander Barkov's season-ending knee surgery and Jack Hughes' steakhouse hand accident sidelining him 18 games.
