Unless its Crosby right? Then its a-ok 4 for 5.

I brought it up because you are quick to s*** on our guy who should fight when he does, and even quicker to defend your man crush for fighting when he shouldn't.

you americans and your dislike of sweeping generalizations..

I will take a guy standing up for a team mate over a ***** who just jumps people off of faceoffs any day.

Crosby didn't win that fight. He violently shook the other guy. Crosbys just a pansy.

they don't have to. his team is 0-4 when he fights. which tells you why he fights in the first place.

That was a classic Babcock stare.

Sometimes you have the most stupidist posts

Joey chips a nail, so Ozzie is put in as backup since you don't use your groin when charting face-offs. At the end of the first, the score is 0-0. JHo has faced no shots, so he goes out for a beer during intermission. Finding a nice microbrewery that produces a hearty, yet lilting ale, he loses track of time and fails to return to the game. With 15 seconds left in the second period, Horcroff rings one off the post, and everyone notices that the Wings have had an empty net for the entire period. Ozzie drops his chart, grabs his helmet, but due to the groin injury, he is too late to get to the net, the Oilers get the rebound, and score. Ozzie plays the third. Final score: Wings 3, Oilers 1. Ozzie with the hat trick. LGW complains that he should have had the "soft" goal, and that his scoring is "streaky".

No offense, but that's stupid. Relying far too much on goalie chemistry for that third line. I know Ozzie is tied for third all-time in goals by a goalie, but he can't carry a line by himself. Swap Stuart and Howie, and McCollum needs top-line minutes in GR to develop. Salei is a stud, no idea why you left him out. And why on earth would you have a dinosaur like Homer starting in goal when we have Miller? Do you not know who Miller's brother is?

I've got $5 in my wallet and some quarters in a jar on my dresser. I'll give it to the first person who tracks Crosby down and hits him in the face with a pie. Any pie will do, I'm not picky. The pie must have buckshot in it, though. Something to really give it some oomph when it smacks into his face. An extra quarter will be given to the person who in place of buckshot uses a live grenade. The quarter of course will be for the customary one phone call from jail.

This is exactly why fighting is useless in today's game.

I wish the Ref got popped a couple more

Not a bad period for Edmonton considering they didn't even know a game was happening tonight. Only down 1-0. I want Hudler to get one. This year.

How about no sweeping generalizations? kthxbye

I'm happy Apple Fritters has stuck =] Wish i was watching the game but I'm watching the original Tron with my uncle. Just sawwe scored so i figured i'd ask someone to brak down the play for me =]

Nice! Nick and Dr Rahmani!

I don't know, though, a lot of times they screw up the call even after sending it off to review.

No im saying stop riding hudlers balls for a second like you have the last 5 years. Bert and Franzen have chemistry, and theyve had it since last years playoffs... maybe if Hudler didnt screw off to MOscow Dynamo he could've been the one building chemistry with Franzen. How do you think Hudler would be the perfect for a role where youre getting pucks in the corners and down low when Hudler can't get within 10 feet of the corners without being on his ass? Just because you love small skilled players doesnt mean we should be changing the chemistry of the best line on our team the first several games to make him hopefully produce just because he needs to ride on the coattails of others. Logic Eva.

Fixed.

Melodramatic much? It's blindside and it's an elbow to the head. Plus Perron didn't have the puck. 3 strikes and you're out.

So other than the fact that Thornton plugs Perron with a blindside elbow to the jaw, and Pietrangelo doesn't toss his bucket, what exactly is in that clip? Certainly nothing about hitting no longer being in hockey.

I never really used it when it was here, but where's the minus button when you need it?

Do I think Hank and Pav "need" each other to be successful? No, but it damn sure helps... and our 2nd line has been strong all season, even in the games they haven't put up points. Granted, the third line has been atrocious at times, but I don't think the answer is messing with the top two lines, both of which have been great so far.
