He should retire after the game. Pull that scene from Half Baked where he just walks around saying, "f*** you, f*** you, f*** you, you're cool, f*** you, I'm out!"

We're about to find out!

"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten......ten goals for St. Louis. Ah ah ah ah ah!"

Isn't the area in front of the other team's goal painted a lovely shade of blue?

"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine......nine goals for St. Louis. Ah ah ah ah ah!"

Come on St. Louis, don't tell me you shot your wad already. GIVE ME DOUBLE-DIGITS.

As a springboard into what? More mediocrity?

Go drenk you're malk.

Have you any idea how difficult it is to work "enriched plutonium" into a conversation about hockey? Gosh.

20 more minutes, and I demand double-digits. Come on St. Louis, give us all you got.

Are you that dense? Like enriched plutonium?

The Wings will be ready for the playoffs?

Do I file this under "Hope Springs Eternal" or "I'm Really ******* High Right Now"?

LOL. Touche.

Well the team just took a s*** on the ice, so fair is fair.

Maybe you don't know this about LGW, but we're grammar pedants around here.

"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight......eight goals for St. Louis. Ah ah ah ah ah!"

You mean this game will finally clue them in? As opposed all the other turds we've played this season? Surely you jest.

St. Louis just scored 7 goals. ST. LOUIS IS ******* AWESOME!

We scored? Who gives a f***. We could score 20 goals tonight and still be one of the worst teams in the league.

No, no I'm not. What gave it away?

We suck. We motherf***ing, ass-licking, dog-barfing suck. Pathetic, embarrassing, disgraceful, putrid. f*** them, and f*** us for letting them think they can get away with this garbage. Start demanding your money back folks, we deserve better than this godforsaken s***.

Figured as much. I think his reputation got him thrown out of the game, but hearing people talk about the play (I couldn't watch the game), it sounded like it was borderline or not even an elbow at all, so this was the right decision.

Do I need to post this in every single thread on this issue that pops up? "Never attribute to malice that which can be explained by incompetence." In other words, there is no conspiracy, just facked up refs who need to be retrained/taken to Dr. Rahmani. The reffing in the NHL has been horrible for years, and it's been horrible for all teams, not just us. However, since most of us I would assume do not ardently follow/watch other games like we do our own team's, we tend not to notice that. In baseball, if the umps make enough mistakes that the league brass catches wind of it, they're sent to Umpire College or whatever it's called, where they are re-taught the rules and how to interpret them correctly. This doesn't necessarily go for ball/strike calls, since each ump has their own strike zone, but if the ump is egregious about calling pitches, that'll get them flagged too. Also, managers can contest a call, and there's an umpire in a press box with a TV that allows him to see several different angles of the play, to determine if the call on the field was the right one or the wrong one. Why the NHL doesn't have a similar policy in place is beyond me. When Bud Selig makes you look dumb, that's bad. If re-training all the refs is too time-consuming/expensive, put more on the ice. In a sport where little things can make a difference, more eyes watching the action is a good thing, not a bad thing.

I'm damn shocked we won this game. Talk about vulturing a win.
