Leave it to Carman to interject Crosby into something that is TOTALLY NOT ABOUT HIM AT ALL.

Not to mention Hank has some more ownage to unleash when they play again.

If he is forced to retire by his family that would be great, I hate that f*****.

Zetterberg is just playing awful lately.

all our lines are soft

Let me see what I've got on me. *checking my wallet.* Wait, does that share of the Leafs include waffles?

Is everyone's audio piss poor, or is it just DirecTV? I'm getting DD5.1 from FSDHD but it sounds like the boombox I bought when I was 13.

I had to +1 you.

Franzen should watch some game tape on Helm. Skate hard. Go to the net. Shoot the puck.

How does 7:53 left in the 1st sound?

s***. I can only cover 1 billion of that. Can someone spot me 300 mil?

OP updated.

How is it absurd to hope when the outcome is unknown? He could very well ask for less than you think he deserves 'just because'. The only thing bordering absurd is your willingness to squash hope. You hope squasher. Don't you have enough power on this board? Now you wanna police hope too?

As far as the best player in the league being out is concerned, I'm pretty sure Pavel came back a while ago. In a way this kind of makes me sad because the Lions were showing some good potential at the end of last season so I was thinking this could have been a good year for them.

Jezz man just marry the guy already. Your the biggest Crosby fan boy I know and my best friend growing up is a penguins fan.

Isn't the TV contract set to expire after this season? Or did they re-up with Versus/NBC/Comcast/etc? I would love to see the NHL return to ESPN, which would likely mean a return of NHL 2Night program as well. Wouldn't mind hearing this again (see attached).

Do we have the Crosby family's address to send thank you cards?

I have. He told me that Bettman makes sure nothing happens to him and that there is a massive conspiracy against the Wings now that he is in the league. Then he ate a kitten and kicked me in the shins. What a jerk.

It's easy to say it was clean when we have the capability to view it and review it and slow it down and pause it, etc. When you're the ref on the ice, seeing the game going by in one speed, a hit like that from his angle probably looked bad enough to call. Was it the wrong call to make? Yeah, probably. Does that mean that this hit is now indicative of a league wide policy/conspiracy to end hitting? Hardly.

"Here lies Pavel Dats.....damn, he deked me again, sorry. He's in that grave over there. "

lidstrom: "here lies... wait. no. he's still out there. perfect humans don't die."

Pavel Datsyuk. Then yes, probably Helm.

I just blew out my shoulder pretty badly doing dips.
