You'll Never Guess How Many Pull Ups A Top NHL Prospect Did At The Combine....Hint - Zero.
The Score – The NHL Scouting Combine is in full swing this weekend in Toronto, but the top-ranked prospect’s inability to do the same has stolen the headlines. Kingston Frontenacs forward Sam Bennett – Central Scouting’s top-ranked skater – was unable to complete a single pull-up during his athletic showcase, per the Canadian Press. Likely more embarrassing than detrimental, the 17-year-old was discouraged, yet well-coached following his workout. “I was definitely disappointed with myself,” Bennett said. “I was wanting to do the best I can in every test. But, I guess, ultimately games aren’t won or lost if you can do a pull-up in the gym. “I think (what sets me apart) really just a combination of my hockey sense along with my compete level … I think I compete as hard, if not harder, than anyone else.”
PUSSSSSSSSSYYYYYYYYY. Listen I’m a fat out of shape blogger who hasn’t lifted a weight in 20 years, but I guarantee you I can stroll to a local park and rip 8 pullups right in this kids face. In my prime I could probably do 50. Actually fuck it. Let’s do it live!

I don’t want to make excuses but if there weren’t a ton of MILF’s with kids in strollers like fingering themselves watching me workout I easily would have done 8. It was just really awkward.
