Added for toughness.

I'll take it.

Nice knuckler Val!

Sorry man - the game is started and a goal is on the board so we gotta DQ this pick.

Ivanans is no pushover either - 6'4 240 - and he seemed to get a few good ones in too before eating those rights.

I figured it wouldn't kick in until week 3 because everyone would have a score of 0 until then if you dropped week one and two. It would be pointless to do it before then. With so many people already with their picks in there won't be much separation in points for a while as it is. In the best case scenario we could somehow show people's week by week scores (maybe screenshot of a spreadsheet or something) and how their drop two works, but with so many people playing that is a lot to ask. Just tallying will be a pain in the butt.

Bettman actually had a funny line while sitting in with the VS crew. He said that while he walked out on the ice with Mario Lemieux for the pregame inaugural ceremony at Pittsburgh's arena he asked Mario "why are they booing you?". It seems he may have a sense of humor after all.

Friday, October 8 Minnesota at Carolina San Jose at Columbus Dallas at New Jersey Anaheim at Detroit [X2] Buffalo at Ottawa Washington at Atlanta Saturday, October 9 Phoenix at Boston Columbus at San Jose NY Rangers at Buffalo Dallas at NY Islanders Montreal at Pittsburgh Ottawa at Toronto New Jersey at Washington Atlanta at Tampa Bay Philadelphia at St. Louis Anaheim at Nashville Detroit at Chicago Los Angeles at Vancouver Sunday, October 10 Boston at Phoenix Los Angeles at Calgary Florida at Edmonton

Oh yea - the double up game. Everyone will mark one pick as "X2" and it will count double. Thanks!

In order to finance the purchase of the Pistons, Mr. Ilitch has unveiled new third jerseys for the upcoming season:

Apples and oranges. Lombardi's in the city, Grimaldi's in Brooklyn/Hoboken, Paulus Hook Brick Oven in JC, Graziella's, Il Porto are all great neapolitan NY pizzas but they aren't NY pizza in the colloquial sense(simple flour dough, plain tomato sauce and cheap cheese). There's nothing like a good Lou's or original Uno's or Due pizza though too. Given the choice however, I will take a Round Table Pizza. Best. Sauce. Ever. I have no problem with ads on practice or preseason jerseys. Why not?

I agree. Over and over people complain about the lack of respect in the league, and then they ***** about a guy standing up for his own knees. Let the players determine for themselves what is a clean or dirty hit and answer for it. It is their bodies after all. More guys will end up hurt by leaving it solely in the hands of the officials.

I didnt see the game, and that wasnt in the above clip. Anyone have this part?

cant get this out of my head

I haven't played for about 5 years or so, and I am absolutely clueless about what kind of stick I would use if I started again (which I would like to do someday, after surgery). I was loyal to Montreal 88's for so long and was very fickle about it.

Unfortunately I don't. I keep forgetting he is 35.
