Very proud to be Canadian tonight! 14 Gold medals is impressive and obviously winning mens hockey was a relief! USA did a lot better than I think anyone expected and had me sweating bullets for the whole 3rd period and OT. s***ty that Crosby scored but glad to have it regardless. Congratulations to USA representing their country so greatly. Top of the medal count is definitely something to be proud of! Canada will hopefully be their one day. Best Olympics I can remember in a long time though. The 2 week break from the NHL has been great but definitely excited to get back into it now Bring on the Avs!!!

http://www.nj.com/olympics/index.ssf/2010/...es_eurotra.html How's this for some good ol' NBC late night drama haha. Will be interesting to see how this plays out. And JR's reaction!!! :D :thumbup:

hahahaha to those who also wanna see this:

From my understanding Eurotrash is kind of the opposite of Whitetrash, being wealthy Euro-Americans opposed to poor Caucasian Americans. Nonetheless, it is definitely a derogatory term and shouldn't be used by national media.

I know how he meant it. But suppose Canada played horrible hockey tonight, is it ok for a European commentator to say they played White trash hockey??

Definitely agree the Russians played horrible tonight but to use the term "Eurotrash" to describe their play.. that's crossing some lines I'd like to think.

In full support of this thread. The stats are there. 2008: 184 GA 2009: 244 GA This year the Wings are getting some of the best goaltending they've had in years and they're still on pace for 220+ GA Babs will stay, people are crazy to think otherwise. But McCrimmon 100% don't let the door hit you on the way out buddy.

great plays by the zetterberg line so far

curly fries in windsor??

C - Zetterberg A- Datsyuk, Franzen + Filpula in rotation On a side note though, if Z does become the captain will he be the first player drafted in the 7th round to earn captaincy??

http://www.nhltorrents.co.uk/ check out that site.. you'll have to join probably and if youve never used torrents read up. not sure if the games up or when it will be up. ive downloaded from there in the past but not in a long time. good luck ps: 9-1 :D !!! hahah go wings!!

Great thread. If Detroit would have won, Hossa would have probably went to a team where he would have the potential of being a captain. In my personal opinion, if I had the skillset Hossa did, after winning a cup my next goal would be to lead a club to winning the greatest trophy in pro sports. With that being said, LA would have been the team for sure.

someone has inside sources

LETS GO RED WINGS!!!!

Another great interview by Cabbie. Enjoy.

Yeah the touching looked pretty awkward but everyone knows Cabbie and the kinda stuff he does. His interviews with Osgood are always classic.

If Detroit beat a Pittsburgh team without Malkin, media and Pens fans would blame it on that. If Pittsburgh beat a Detroit team without Datsyuk, Pittsburgh is the best team in the world. Point and case, the media runs everything and Buttman holds Sids jock strap.

I love Panger.. and NBC has better picture, sound, and presentation. Plus, I can pick up the HD signal. I hate the greedy bastards that run NBC but I gotta admit.. they do a damn good job.

I MIGHT be going to the game but for those of you who are, give Pav nice a chant when he gets on the ice. Everyone is glad hes back in the lineup (i hope), get him off to a great start with some "Pavel, Pavel, Pavel," etc. chants. Who's down to start it up??!

DET/PIT: 4-1

I believe it's on the player level concourse where only media and press are allowed. I could be completely wrong though.

DET/CHI 4-1 PIT/CAR 4-3

Not sure but it was a lot better than the song/video they showed before the WSH/PIT game
