The Everything NHL Thread

I officially hate my life as a Buffalo sports fan.

funny, I hate your life for that very same reason!

Naw, Buffalo isn't terrible. Anyways, the flames had a decent showing against detroit. They put together a reasonable game, just got bested by one of the leagues juggernauts. If they play like that, they'll win alot more than they are...
 
I'm conflicted with dropping Voros because he can get PIMs and has shown ability to score. On the other hand, Brunnstrom (when not on the 4th line) can actually do stuff (and if Dallas continues its losing ways, coaching change?). There isn't much else to grab in players, so live dangerously?

I want Toskala mainly because I feel Ward/Miller isn't really too reliable at this moment in time and I should take a risk hoping that he bounces back. I can also use him for trade bait for teams with shitty goalies.
 
No The Vancouver Canucks bested The Red Wings, didn't get to see the game but from what I heard the Red Wings were the better team in the first 40 minutes, but the Canucks have heart this year and never stopped battling.

I'd go with Voros, THere's not much patience in Dallas anymore and if he doesn't produce in his first game or two (heck it could be a matter of periods) than he's going to have new linemates and he hasn't been able to produce without them as said before.
Voros can probabley pot a couple in New York, they seem to get more lucky bounces anyways.
 
I fell asleep during the third but earlier poor Hudler made the really costly and simple mistake of bringing the puck back toward the middle of the ice in front of your own net. Bad things happen when you don't have the space or time to do that and sure enough.. turnover, goal. It sucks because he's been playing really great hockey for the most part. I think that shifted the game a little bit and ended up being an even more crucial play considering how long the game stayed tied after and the Wings inability to score on the back to back power play chances following the tying 1-1 goal.
 
dm I'm gonna fuck you with a rake

I actually went to the game tonight. Positives:

- guy dressed up in banana suit in our section
- booing the Pens fans
- chanting "PRINCESS CROSBY" whenever he was on the ice
- bottle of vodka I found next to my car when I was leaving
- the first two periods

- oh, I forgot, the cheer for Doug Weight. Went kind of like the soccer chant "OLE OLE OLE OLE" except "DOUG WEIGHT DOUG WEIGHT DOUG WEIGHT DOUG WEIGHT" instead.

negatives:
- last period
- Sabourin was one of my goalies tonight, he's gonna fuck up my GAA
- bottle of vodka I found next to my car when I was leaving

The funny this is they could be 4-5th if they could play a complete game and stop collapsing in the 3rd
 
so Claude Lemieux is coming back to win a 5th cup with a 4th different team right????? =D

I looove Claude, but you don't unretire at 43.

:(
 
I do hope for Claude that he will make it, but it would be such a shame for him if he returned now and got stuck at the AHL team.

Would be great for him if he added another cup with another team. But I'm not sure about the contribution he would be able to give on the ice besides giving out his experience to the youngsters of the team.
 
fuck claude lemieux

i hope he makes the worcester sharks in time for them to play the grand rapids griffins so mccarty can beat his ass one last time
 
The oil simply looked "too cute" for most of the game and didn't develop a sense of urgency until it was too late. They weren't agressive enough against the young L.A. defence and they were out muscled for most of the game.

Oh yeah, the kid line was shit.

How is the bottle of vodka both good and bad? Was it empty? That would be bad.
