Jiri Hudler.

Time to set the alarm clock for 17 minutes, and change the channel. This is a Wings game, but of course VS. is contractually obligated to show an update on Sidney Crosby during every game. Even if it's not a Pens game...

SHUTOUT

Damn, dude...I told you not to smoke all that crack at once. Now look what you've done to yourself.

There is a huge difference between Pasha and that other little douchebag. You'll not see Pasha being a media hog, and he puts team first. During the interview after the game the other night, he said, "We won the game, that's more important." You sure as hell won't hear that other media hog say something like that. While every sports writer in humanity is kissing up to Crosby's little ass, Pasha goes out and quietly does his job, night after night. And we who really know the way it is appreciate him for it.

Yep, EVERY SINGLE GAME I get too. This is the most frustrating game I have ever seen.

Under what rule was Ryan playing with an illegal stick? He picked up a legal stick off the ice during play, and no other player was without a stick.

I give it two waffles

Well, I splurged on this one. Got seats on the glass in the section next to the Kings bench. I've only been in the lower bowl once, so I am beyond pumped! LGW!

The Wings themselves can't even talk about Pav without mentioning what's his name. It's like a virus. EDIT: And yeah I know he's a fricking tear right now and bla bla bla.

Isn't that the same as Patty Eaves?

Heh. Hudler doesn't seem to care at all that he's not producing.

They're gonna win because it's my BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pens and somebody. I mean, would anyone really be surprised?

Disrespect my ass. NHL players aren't senior citizens who you should open the door for and give the best seats on buses and adress "Mister" or "Sir". And I really fail to see how it's in any way disrespectful. Is it less disrespectful of Datsyuk to make oppposing players like like complete fools night in and night out? That shootout move he did on Niemi last year, SURELY that was disrespectful? No? Was it maybe because...he's not a rookie? And as soon as a rookie does anything other than act like a media-trained robot who rambles cliches about "learning", "taking one game at a time", "looking up to the guys in the lockerroom" etc, people get all upset and call him disrespectful? Personally saw a rookie who should have been playing in the NHL for months, probably should have already been in his 2nd NHL season, who finally got his chance to show his stuff and did the most of the opportunity. Besides, the shootout is a joke anyway. It's a skills-competition, there only to please the crowd. Omark brought entertainment, he got people talking. Mission accomplished. He showed who he is and I bet you that the Oilers management will have a hard time justifying sending him to the AHL again. Which they probably will anyway just because they're morons.

that wasn't that impressive

The allstar game is a ******* JOKE...fitting that the fan vote is worse...f*** the allstar game...hard.

IMO, no we don't. All-Star voting is flawed anyway. You can vote over and over and over again if you want. Secondly, it's a popularity contest anyway. I don't even pay attention to the All-Star game. I like the skills competition, but other than that, I'd be happy if NO Redwings even played in the All-Star game. Take the time off. This is a cup run year anyway.

Definitely a popularity contest. Would explain why certain players get ridiculous amounts of votes. (Vote for BizNasty. )

It's a media-driven event and hasn't featured the best players in a long time... who watches this anyway? Too many blatant snubs and bias for me - the numbers don't lie, and players who should absolutely be there based on their performances are passed over for political and commercial reasons. Not watching. Don't care.
