I thought I saw that!

GORGEOUS PLAY HOSSA!!

Yay Ozzie makin' saves on.... Pasha x_x And dammit! More Pizza for me...

Well I'm bout outta my slice Fin so I might pop back up in a few. Wish Kronner would quit taking penalties though ~_~

Don't feel bad babe - I went upstairs for a slice of pizza at the start of the PP and missed it too x_x

Ah.. well my best friend has a season ticket holder connection. Maybe $250 was as cheap as they'd sell to us

MULE!!!

Grr.. =/ let's shovel another before the end of the period to shut down their offense.

Eh, Blades didn't fold due to attendance. The entire IHL (of that time) folded into the AHL in '01 and only 6 teams made the cut to merge into the other league. Granted, the attendance didn't help persuade anyone to keep them through to the AHL - but competing against KC Chiefs tailgating, the monstrosity that is Kemper Arena, and the crappy public relations department... Yeah. Good luck with that. Granted, I don't think an NHL team would really survive past a season or two (and then living purely off the novelty of a pro team, because the hockey folk in this town aren't enough to keep it afloat) but it gives me hope to dream At least we'll get CHL hockey next season.. we're hoping. Ground got broken for a smaller venue in Independence that the CHL fully intends to expand into. If we can get that off to a good start - maybe it could breed the interest/desire for an NHL team. But.. no promises of course.

Great save by Conkers. I'm REAL happy with his work so far. In pre-season I was a little iffy.. but MAN does he look great now!

Maybe they forgot about the 'no-tv-timeout-during-an-icing' rule?

Let's get a goal off this icing boys - I wanna score early

Conkers!! <3

I've got no luck on an FSN-D feed, since I live in KC x_x I'm just hoping that the game gets so good I have to mute it

My best friend lives in Chicago and heard that nosebleeds at Wrigley were going for $250+ each. Granted, I don't know what his source was.. it could have been a local thing from the radio/news, he works for a paper, so he may have gotten an ear from someone on the "inside". I dunno what, but I know he'd never pass up the opportunity for us to go. The price was just too steep x_x

Awesome for Norris Nick baggin' another one! I'm kind of wanting to see Iggy or Malkin win the MVP award. Nothin' against Ovie or anything but... nah.

Aww this is making me teary-eyed..

GORDIE!!! Oh this is pwnful.

Agreed. Kane played very well this year and was incredibly solid in his rookie year. Kudos to him! .... Except when he plays the Wings

Pwnful. A little disappointed Babs didn't win, but he didn't exactly have to bring a team out of the cellar like he did. Or Carbonneau. Ohhhh burn on Avery!

Yay Pasha!! Too bad he looked like the kid in grade school without the answer.. "Please don't pick me!"

Am I just imagining things? Or does he sound like he's trying very hard to word this without saying the current NHL is too pansy and lacks player/player respect? Might just be me..

"I wanted speech longer.. but my English short.." I freakin' love that guy!

Seeing as nobody cool comes from Kansas City... xD my only 'Cup Encounter' was when the NHL had it on parade during the lockout in an effort to raise money for Hockey Fights Cancer. So I have pictures of myself with it, terrified of touching it. I didn't want to jinx the team.

LMFAO Wow... Lebda... fantastic. I'm totally gonna party with you some day
