    Ericsson's Number Next Year

    Actually, it depends on where you look. The places that have him listed at 6'5" may have padded his height. It's been known to happen. Or the 6'4" ones may be older, in which case, he has grown an inch. Or it could be the rounding factor when converting from inches to Kelvin.

    WCF GAME 3 GDT: Red Wings 3 at Blackhawks 4 (OT)

    Oh, I get it- You're a Hawks fan. Sorry. I was trying to make sense of your post. Hawks 5 Wings 2 is a bold prediction. They have talent, but I don't think the Wings will let them score that much. I won't say the Wings are invincible (close, though) but I don't think Chicago will beat them by 3.

    And Datsyuk. He wasn't supposed to re-sign according to rumour because he hated Babs.

    Status quo if it is working, risktaking if it is not. (if the next person is a guy) Small real boobs, or large fake one? (if the next person is a girl) Ericsson or Lilja?

    Ericsson's Number Next Year

    I was being sarcastic. He could become 65 so people remember he has grown an inch and stop putting his height at 6'4".

    WCF GAME 3 GDT: Red Wings 3 at Blackhawks 4 (OT)

    Ran into my friend the Blackhawks fan today. He didn't even know they were in the playoffs. What does that tell you? Wings win this one. Dats/Leino with a goal in the first. Kane ties it in the second; Hank, Hossa, Hudler, Franzen, and Flip score in the second. Sammy gets 2 in the third. Half of LGW complains about the lack of Arby's; the other half complains that Sammy should save those goals for close games.

    The Most Ridiculous Osgood Rumor Ever....

    You mean you haven't heard!?!?! It's....... not true. The person who asked me did so privately, and out of concern for Ozzie. I've been to sites where trolls come on and start crap. If you listen to them, one of the Wings is *** and his family is a cover (kids aren't his), another beats his wife, another was fathered by someone his mother would never have met... It goes on. Stupid people say stupid things and stupid people believe them. I'm not saying anyone who thinks that it is possible that Ozzie may get divorced or have a problem with booze is stupid. Those things can happen to anyone (generally speaking). Hockey players are far from immune. I'm just saying that people need to get their facts straight before putting their fingers to the keys, especially when it is something that could hurt someone. Can you even imagine if every post on the internet was subject to slander/libel laws?

    I love pizza, and I love mac'n'cheese, but that just doesn't sound appealing. The person below me posts in the "X posts for a Game X win" threads.

    Ericsson's Number Next Year

    He's the Second Coming of Probert. Of course if Cheli doesn't retire, he may have to be 24a for a decade or so.

  18. And now a word from our legal department: The photo on the right is not an actual photo of Chris Chelios. It is an approximation of his age at the time in question and is used for comparative purposes only. Do not send it to him to be autographed. Age is approximate based on full-term pregnancy, and may vary from actual length of gestation.

    Ericsson's Number Next Year

    That belonged to Luuuuuuuuc. Personally, I think Rig should just keep 52 unless he has another number with strong personal meaning.

    The Most Ridiculous Osgood Rumor Ever....

    I heard both the divorce and booze rules about a week after he had his time off. Someone asked me if I had heard anything legit, and I said no and did some searching. The person who asked me heard it on a puck bunny site, so there goes any shot at it being true right there. If it was true (outside chance), I would still be a big fan, and I would wish him well in the future.

    Sammy is clutch

    I usually keep my devotion to Sammy to the Hottest Wings thread, but come the playoffs, I get to share the Sammy love with the rest of you. Sammy

    Lilja on life as a fan

    No one would believe them. Lilja: Hi. I'm andreas lilja LGW member: bulls***! Lilja: no, really. LGW member: ok, tell us what Draper's injury was Lilja: can't- it's a secret LGW member: you shower with the guys- who's the biggest? Lilja: can't tell you- that's private LGW member: what can you tell us? Lilja: oh, lots of stuff (fill in trivial example) LGW member: you read that online somewhere. I'm done with you, imposter. Lilja: no, really, I'm lilja.... JK Rowling (author of the Harry Potter series) once went onto a Harry Potter fansite incognito and tried to discuss potential plots and she had people tell her she didn't know what she was talking about. She finally left. I can't imagine it would be any different around here unless they went to Matt and he verified their identity. In that case, they'd be inundated with PMs.
