they are all Hudlers. Doan isnt an oompa loompa

It's not funny. he almost killed Sedin. Look how he clutches his heart on the ice to make sure he was still alive, scary stuff.

Did he adjust the penalty calls for the Canucks gooning it up in games 4 and 5 when they were getting blown out?

Does it have a spell check for Fedorov too? (sorry had to)

are you high on PCP?

I think it more likely that he's simply unaware of the cap rules.

"Mine."

There were a bit of glaring "missed" calls against the Hawks that I saw in Game 6, more than I felt were against Vancouver. The penalty shot was legit. Lets face it, Canucks blew a 3-0 series lead and reffing could have played a minor role in 1 game. 1 game out of the last 3. I can't give Canucks fans a shoulder to cry on. They outplayed the Hawks in Game 6 but weren't good enough to finish. Thats who wins Cups, teams who can finish. Bet you guys wish you played Dallas.

Visnovski was tenth among the defensemen on team in short handed time on ice per game (26 sec/game). And he was first on among his team's D in turnovers with 45. That's actually a pretty respectable number. Chara had 62 turnovers this season (16th highest among defensemen in the league) while Weber had 51 (tied for 42nd). Nick only had 33 give-aways (tied for 110th). As far as short-handed time on ice per game goes... Nick had 2:40/game, Chara had 2:48/game and Weber had 2:06/game. The Norris is specifically worded such that voters are told to pick the "defense player who demonstrates throughout the season the greatest all-round ability in the position". Given that Visnovski was his team's last choice for PK duty in a given game (10th among Ducks defensemen, only 26 seconds a game) I don't think he can rightly be given the trophy. It's the same situation as Mike Green's earlier nominations aside from the fact that Green's defensive play at that time was much worse than Vis' was this year. Duncan Keith and Drew Doughty would disagree.

Miller>Draper. Miller has been great in the first round, he shouldn't sit.

He was really good in Prince of Persia too!

Don't have the particular statistic, but there is also one showing that of the 3, Nick is on the ice against much more quality competition as well. At 40, he is still the standard for the position. +/- is such a buzz statistic but really we have to weigh other stats as well. Would Weber have that many more assists just because he is on the Wings? I mean, we are talking about Nick Lidstrom here. Let's take it easy, I think people are warranted to have a little bit of homer goggles on.

I don't understand what is photoshopped? Isn't this how the poster looked originally? Hank was awesome in that movie, but I'm always surprised they allowed him to wear the championship rings

Those were the top three vote getters huh. Nick HAS to be the winner then. I honestly though Yandle or Vishy would win it...but them not being in the top three vote getters has to mean Nick got the most votes.

This should be Nick's. I can't imagine Chara getting this award in the same year he has all this controversy around him. Weber was great this year, but Nick had more points and is more well known and liked in the hockey world, which means he probably got the most votes from the writers.

Not a "fear" type guy. No teams scare me really.

bahahaha roberto bernstein is soooo jokes

I am for sure going to hell for it, but it seemed too perfect lol

Roberto Bernstein has troubles seeing the puck lately...

My housemate made me a red and white beaded necklace before the season started. It has a 13 entwined in it as well. I put it on the first day of the season, and it has stayed on since. Before a game, I'll give the 13 a kiss for luck. So far, not bad. The string broke once - and it was the day he got hurt. It's a constant with me until the end of the season, and then I'll take it off and hang it up til September and camp.
