Welcome to Please Like My Sport, the weekly column in which we find various things that can (and should) make you excited about hockey this week. Whether you're already a hockey enjoyer or someone who is looking for reasons to become one, the goal here is to deliver reasons for you to appreciate the NHL right now.Here are some things to enjoy about hockey this week: incredible goalThis season may still be D.J. Fluker Jersey young but it's had no shortage of amazing goals. But with all due respect to through-the-legs display and , the best goal of the year (so far) undoubtedly came from Matthew Tkachuk.It's quite po sibly the best goal I've seen over the past several years and, honestly, I haven't really been able to stop thinking about it or fully comprehend how it even came to be. It's simply that good and preposterous. DID MATTHEW TKACHUK ( ) JUST DO THAT?YES HE DID! NHL (@NHL) It's not so much that Tkachuk goes through the legs -- we've seen plenty of players score that way over the years -- but it's more about the context of the situation, the degree of difficulty and the incredible execution. He only has a split-second to read and react to the situation and make a play on the fly, and it's rare to see guys attempt the trick shot at this rate of speed, or from this far out. It also rarely results in a shot with that much "oomph" hitting the top corner. It happened so quickly that I'm pretty sure we all needed a few additional looks to even see what exactly how it played out. And for all of that to happen in overtime with le s than two seconds remaining on the clock? Come on. and Nationals celebrate togetherIt may have taken D.C. an excruciatingly long time to get back into the win column as far as championships go but the Capitals and Nationals have combined to win two in the last couple of years, and they both dominated their respective victory celebrations.This week, the Caps hosted the Nats following their World Series win over the Astros and it turned into exactly the kind of joint championship party that you'd expect from these guys. From before the game... Step into the locker room pregame with the Truly Legendary. Washington Capitals (@Capitals) ...to during the game... decide to go hard after goal No. 2 Jake Ru sell (@_JakeRu sell) Capitals broadcast: the Washington Nationals in various stage of undre s Danny (@recordsANDradio) This is not real Washington Capitals (@ Mychal Kendricks Jersey Capitals) the Nationals are shirtle s on the Zamboni at the Capitals game with the Commi sioners Trophy! Danny (@recordsANDradio) ...to after the game... Gonna riiiiiiiiiide 'til I can't no more. // Washington Nationals (@Nationals) Champions. Washington Capitals (@Capitals) And while it might be juuuuuust a little weird to see the Caps singing "We Are The Champions" when they're almost 18 months removed from raising the Cup, we can let it slide since they set (and drank) the bar for the Nationals. The Caps walked so the Nats could run. Or they stumbled so the Nats could pa s out, or something like that.For D.C. sports fans, it had to be amazing to see the two squads join forces for a party like this one. But, for what it's worth, not everyone was particularly impre sed with the Nationals' partying skills. Evgeny Kuznetsov on the Nationals' partying: "They look pretty sober. When we was in their situation, I dont remember anything." Ian Oland (@ianoland) Considering , I suppose we shouldn't be surprised. are selling out (in the good way)As much as certain media folk may want to reach to (wrongly) criticize the Coyotes for playing "low-event" hockey, the Yotes have started to put it together and are playing some pretty damn good hockey right now. And wouldn't you know it, the locals are showing up to support the team. It's crazy how that works. announce a sellout crowd of 17,125 tonight at Gila River Arena. Four of the Coyotes past five weekend home games have been sold out. Alexander Kinkopf (@AEKinkopf) The Coyotes have certainly had their i sues in terms of attendance over the years, mostly due to arena i sues and poor performance. But winning can Shaquem Griffin Jersey certainly work to mitigate some of those i sues and we're starting to see that with the Yotes this season. Through the first month of the season, Arizona actually has a higher attendance percentage than seven (NJD, BUF, CBJ, CAR, FLA, NYI, OTT).There's been so much instability around the Coyotes and so much talk of the franchise being relocated over the years, but we know that hockey can absolutely work in the desert if the product is good enough and the team is put in a position to succeed (hello, ). The Coyotes seem like they might be poised to make a push in the Western Conference this year and I think it'd be a really great thing for a market and a franchise that needs that kind of boost. (The are also in that conversation). The Winter Cla sic jerseysI know some people don't nece sarily care about what teams wear on the ice, but I always get excited when a nice sweater enters the rotation. That's why I was thrilled to see the Winter Cla sic jerseys the and Stars will be wearing on New Year's Day: L.J. Collier Jersey IT'S HERE | Order now: Nashville Predators (@PredsNHL) Now that the Predators have unveiled their Winter Cla sic jersey, here are some additional pics, taken during my recent visit to Adidas HQ. Paul Lukas (@UniWatch) 78 years of hockey history. | Dallas Stars (@DallasStars) These jerseys by are CLEAN. NHL (@NHL) Fashion is subjective and I've seen a lot of people say they're not crazy about these looks but I think they're both pretty clean. At the very least, they're significantly better than what either team wears on a primary basis.Jake Voracek's good sportsmanshipRemember that commercial where the young basketball player narcs on his own team by telling a referee that the ball Nate Orchard Jersey actually touched him last before going out of bounds, thus giving the other team po se sion late in a close game? It may seem like a truly preposterous scenario but it actually became reality in the NHL this week. Jake Voracek snitched on himself after he helped draw a phantom high-sticking call against the . The penalty would have given the a power play late in a tie game, but Voracek let the officials know that stick never actually touched him. Damon Severson gets called for high-sticking on Jake Voracek. Voracek tells the refs the stick didn't get him and the call is reversed Brady Trettenero (@BradyTrett) The true "Please Like My Sport" crowd will preach that this is what makes hockey players so great, that they have more integrity than other athletes and yada yada yada.But now comes time for the fun debate: Would you rather have your player just shut up and take the man-advantage that brings a great opportunity for his team to win the game, or would you rather him prove that he's a pretty swell and honest guy? I'll hang up and listen. (The Flyers we
