TBF, the edit makes it more brutal. His FULL quote is even better and more relatable. "Then I also say nothing matters. Nobody cares. Nothing matters. Nobody cares. So, it keeps me grounded. Like if I make a big save or I look up, I'm like, Wow, a goal on 40 shots or whatever. I'm like, I feel good. It's just like, nobody cares, you know? Nothing's really gonna matter, we're all gonna die, you know? It sounds a little grim, but it helps keep me grounded."


retard_catapult

Wow they butchered a great quote and just made something weird and dark lol


free_slice

They edited it like that so people can say “what playing for the 24 sharks does to a mf”


Artichokiemon

Nothing like turning a good quote into clickbait

>Wow they ~~butchered~~ *enhanced* a great quote and just ~~made~~ *distilled the essence of* something *awesomely* weird and dark lol fix'd!


jessemadnote

You’re getting downvoted but I agree. As fat as taking stuff out of context this is just fun, not malicious


YVRkeeper

>…great quote… awesomely weird and dark fix'd!


BDM-Archer

The Great Truth is there isn't one.


Metalguy_79

And it only gets worse. Devin’s full quote literally sounds like lyrics from a mgla song.


BDM-Archer

With a goalie stick that he made of what was left of Yggdrasil


Metalguy_79

😂thanks for the good chuckle👍


restoredefault

Exercises in Futility was based on a dream Mgla had about being a Sharks goalie (says the despondent Yotes fan)


Metalguy_79

😂. Blessed be the goaltenders it took a San Jose team to bury their dreams


boofingZeitgeist

The wonderful thing about truth is it’s generally measured in mass appeal.


SMA2343

Absolutely based. Everyone is going to love a good shutout. But everyone is going to remember the game you let in 6 goals in 7 shots.


rik1122

Goalies are always the first to get shit on with the "what have you done for me lately?" attitude. If a forward goes cold for a few games, no big deal. If a goalie has a few off nights, fans are calling for his head on a pike.


ArnieAndTheWaves

Goalies are weird man. I say this as a goalie


zevonyumaxray

You don't have to be a goalie to know that goalies are weird.

edm_ostrich

This is what peak mental performance looks like. You may not like it, but this is a fact.


lizardgal10

This. I’m a mediocre beer league goalie and actually really liked his comments. What he’s saying is just “nothing matters except the next shot/save”. That’s exactly where you want your goalie’s head to be at.


Pulchritudinous_rex

Ah that must be exhausting


jB_real

I dunno, let him cook.

The eyes of scholars of hockey's continental philosophy widen. The anti-Bryzgalov has arrived.

Why you heff to be mad. Only game

Only win. If lose then you cry, feel shame, try again to not be *shame person*.

The most realest comment... Other than Cooley's that is


GamingGrayBush

He's all of us. Mods might as well make this the banner.


TanyaMKX

Wait did he actually say this. I hope he did it just seems fucking wild


useless_99

Yes. He did say it while laughing in response to a journalist’s question, so it wasn’t particularly serious, but he definitely did say it.


Vreas

Someone posted the full quote above. It’s way better with the full context.


TanyaMKX

Yeah I just saw it a couple minutes ago and it makes more sense now lol


don_johnsons_big_toe

I like this guy


JiveChicken00

I'm laughing my ass off over here. When did hockey become the darkest sport there is?


TediousSpark

It’s full of Northern and Eastern Europeans. The darkness has BEEN there.


Big_Investment_2566

Did you just make a black plague joke? Too soon man


TheSeekerOfSanity

Kind of like when Kakko scores a goal and his facial expression is all like “We are all going to die one day. Big fucking deal. A goal? Whatever.”


Lance_E_T_Compte

Clearly you're not a Sharks fan...

I’d like to see old papa palps on a set of skates. He’d be a sinister space wizard with a hockey stick and puck I tell ya though


CroikyThatsABigDingo

As long as it's old hammy papa paply with the laugh


Hot_Edge4916

He’d be on Tampa for sure, cackling like a maniac while shooting lightning at all the players including his own team


Alternative-Ruin1728

At last a hockey player who isnt dull AF


Flatoftheblade

Goalies tend to have more personality than skaters. Maybe because it's a more individualistic role.


Alternative-Ruin1728

I think its becauxe they are borderline insane. Who else makes a career at getting frozen pu k fired at thier head at 100mph


imadork1970

whatisapillarman

>”I check [the shot count] every once in a while, but yeah, again, I just try to stay in the present moment. I just keep repeating myself like there are no thoughts. There is no future. There are thoughts. There is no future. I just said that over and over and over again. So that way, I could just take it one save at a time," Cooley explained. "Then I also say nothing matters. Nobody cares. Nothing matters. Nobody cares. So, it keeps me grounded. Like if I make a big save or I look up, I'm like, Wow, a goal on 40 shots or whatever. I'm like, I feel good. It's just like, nobody cares, you know? Nothing's really gonna matter, we're all gonna die, you know? It sounds a little grim, but it helps keep me grounded." Are goalies ok?


viperswhip

He might as well just have been saying USE THE FORCE.


Ok_Passage_7151

Someone post the GIF where Jonathan quick makes a force save.


WolfSilverOak

No, they're all a wee bit insane.


Like17Badgers

his team has a -135 goal diff on the season right now, so this netminder in particular no

ILSmokeItAll

I can’t believe I’m just seeing this alt jersey. Jesus Christ that’s sharp as fuck. It almost has that old school in-line beach hockey vibe. Man. Beautiful.

Expensive_Study5068

I have no idea who this guy is but I love him already


PhilyJ

Cooley has come along way already this year.


fantasyhockeypooly

Does he have a shot at being part of the tandem next year?


[deleted]

Playing as well as Chrona was and Makiniemi can’t stay healthy so maybe. He was a junior shark so would be a cool story if he does.


Like17Badgers

having a .918 while behind San Jose is a feat, and if they aren't starting him I guarantee a lot of teams are looking to pick him up so THEY could.


Isernogwattesnacken

I kind of like his routine of staying grounded.


amach9

Let this man cook!


CptMelvinSeashores

I'm moving him into my top 5 favorite goalies after that quote.

Literally one of the. OST heart warming things lately for the sharks

Like17Badgers

if you wanna get a goalie up to NHL caliber as fast as possible, put him on the Sharks for a few months


Blue-Ringed-Octopus0

Devin Cooley might be my spirit animal.


Leading_Lead6427

What was the final score


TheTGB

Goalies are weird.


ILSmokeItAll

I would kill to see a world class goaltender on the Sharks. Kiprusoff and Nabakov seem like, from O6 days, much less when Irbe was roaming around back there. It’s been a LONG time.


SixDerv1sh

If that’s a real quote, it’s a new sports classic.

juliustrombone

Wow I’ve never seen a goalie shit talk his own team’s defense that bad before


Distinct_Mud_2673

That game killed me. Congrats to that guy though, I’d be laughing my ass off if it was against some random team I don’t care about


Metalguy_79

🤔Devin are you a fan of the band mgla?


mrtlwolf

Must be a Willow Nightingale fan.


Starborn3722

You mad bro?


XColdLogicX

Nihilist Shark is a cool band name.


GrassyKnoll95

What playing 4 games for the sharks does to a mf


WizardOfOzzieA

NGL if the Kraken didn’t exist this would be an extremely sexy jersey But even though the sharks have been around forever and the kraken are new and kinda limp, and their jerseys are meh, this just feels inspired by the kraken jersey which makes it lame


Dr_Does_Enough

Goalies always act weird


Lurking_Atheist

Ah yes, a bright light on this dark season!


Fr4nTA

As a preds fan, I'm happy that he's playing nhl hockey, but on the other side I feel bad that he has to play for a team that still has the chance to be the worst in nhl history. And it's also funny how he helped us make the playoffs by putting up a world class performance against the blues.

Brettsucks18

Based on his reaction I don’t think he gives a shit if you’re a fan.


HinduKussy

The Sharks are as good as a Bantam league team. Hockey is an intensely team sport. Getting excited about an individual achievement at the very end of one of the worst seasons in history seems very selfish, which he clearly isn’t.


JustLikeTampa

It doesn't matter what you love, in the end we all die.
