How commendable, you are on a forum that makes up words like pwnd, lulz, and other such nonsense preaching proper English. While at the same time teaching interpretation skills to people who have a hard time deciphering their own opinion. Is this your internship? By forum I mean the internet not "Discussion Forum".
-
OK then respond to the part where I my interpretation of Hossa's situation does fit the poem. Or continue to point out that I am overreacting, thus allowing you to continue to avoid the fact you assumed something about me that was totally false.
-
Do you also run around here correcting everyone's sentence and paragraph structure? Maybe you can give us some homework to practice on, I have many books of poetry so feel free to throw some Robert Frost readings at me, give me a worksheet finding the direct and indirect objects and after you approve my homework I will come back and start posting. Wait is it a pass or fail class or is a grade?
-
Actually I know very well what the poem means and the name of it, but thanks @ssf@c3 for assuming I know nothing. My opinion is that: If the Pens still have Hossa they are a much different team and in his mind at the time he could have been looking at the two as the same option. So it is very possible that when looking at the team he could have seen it as both teams being in the finals and I can learn more from Det, or it is a system I fit better, however you are assuming that he saw Det as the far and away better option. Like he thought it was no competition. Sh!t a guy takes Freshman English and wants to blast me about what a F*cking Robert Frost poem is. Hey professor, it was a joke!

I think if they win the cup this year both Maltby and Draper walk. I think their bodies are both beat from a long season. However if they both walked into Traverse City I would not be in the least bit surprised!
-
So a group of people who don't follow the rules they write expect the refs to follow rules that they write? If I were the refs I would purposely call the game the same and then just say, hey just rescind the penalties after the game. You already do that anyways!

TWO roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth; Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was grassy and wanted wear; Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same, And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back. I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— I took the one to Detroit and a Cup, And that has made all the difference.

Maybe BewareThePenguin is really Jamele Hill she likes those references! Titanium I am sure his Girlfriend helps him feel like a real man too, have you seen her! No Emma, but damn close!

Draper helm Cleary sounds badass to me, that line will forecheck the s*** out of the Pit D. That line can score 0 goals and they will all deserve assists on the goals the Wings score in the 3rd period. This line is not being put together for offense, trust me. This should be known as Depth Checker. As they will test the depth of you D corps! And those of you that want Leino with Drapes, why? To mess up the chemistry that 4th line has going? Especially when you can have a shut down 3rd line like what the Wings are throwing out there. As it is lines 1-3 can defend Crosby and Malkin, the only potential problem is line 4 and that is why Maltby is there. Babs is lining up his Team D for not having the last change. Plus he will mix up the lines during the game, I would love to see a Helm Hossa Mule line out there too, with Flip Z Holmer!
-
Good he can come to Det to be babs asst!!!! The league hates the Wings anyways, right. Wait do they love the Wings now, or is that after they go back to back? I can never remember how these conspiracy things work!
-
Come on Doggy, you skipped right over Kyle Calder, with no hesitation, right past him, and that is not even mentioning J.Willy!
-
Depending on who that NHL player is, Chris Simon yes life time ban, Pronger lets say 8 games would be enough!
-
I have no proof and no insider info just a hunch but I think Bylsma realizes that Crosby needs to be a hockey player not the face of the league. Regardless if Sid wants to admit it or not, being labeled the saving grace of hockey has got to come with a lot of pressure, not to mention being looked at by the fan base as Mario Jr (as in team savior) he is under a lot of pressure, and I think Bylsma realizes guys like Guerin, Gonchar, Kunitz who have all been here before can be in front of the Mic and give Sid some time to just be a hockey player and not a "hockey god". Overall, this guy will change the attitude in Pit, Like I said in another post, attitude reflects leadership. (Yeah I stole it from remember the titans)
-
He and Dan Bylsma both would be guys I would not mind seeing hoist the cup, of course as long as it isn't against the Wings. Guerin is one of the guys that when he was a Bruin I loved watching and always wished the best for, he plays the game right. Gonchar too, he to me always seemed like a good respectable guy. I think with Bylsma there long term you will see a change in attitude there, more of a professional attitude, remember Attitude reflects leadership!

Another whining about whining thread! I have an idea if your thread is going to start with: "The Pen fans need to " You should stop, unplug your keyboard (if using a laptop this may involve taking the machine apart, please unplug all cords and remove all batteries first), then smash your head off of a brick wall. Because that is about as effective as these whiny threads about how ridiculous the Pens fans are. Ever been around here after a loss, or even a close game. Seriously man, every one of your threads is about the pens fans, start a thread about the Wings, you know the players, coaches, team you root for, supposedly.
-
No but as a consolation the Wings last overall picks in the draft will continue to perform like 1st picks though? That is a good consolation!
-
UMM, dude, are you seriously asking this board as a whole to start having rational thoughts?
-
Good try bad execution, Stuart put it in! Is thread is whining about whining, and soon there will be a whining about whining about whining which will then lead to a whining about whining about whining about whining while winning! Say that 5 times fast! (That that that that that hah beat you to it I am the bestest internet user ever!)

100% I understand the Wings (the we you referred to) have superstar players, and you know what if Dats is two strides early of the bench for a line change and gets a penalty, I don't blame the refs. If Lids is holding with the free hand, I want it called, and then I will ***** at lids (through the TV) for doing it. Rules are rules, my team, your team, his team, our team, their team. Call the rules, that is all I ask, call them, otherwise get rid of them. My feelings on last night, Z and Malkin gone for game 3 (strap tie down rule) and Malkin gone for game 4 instigation in the last 5 (47.22). Sorry those are the rules, I don't run around holding up banks and expect the local police to let me off because some one knows my Aunt's hairdresser whose husband used to be a cop. If I break a rule (speeding for example) I know what the risk reward is in that situation, reward I get where I am going quicker, risk $$$$$$ in speeding tickets. If I get a ticket going 75 in a 65 and the Troopers son doesn't, I will be pissed, just like if Abdelkader or Big E go after a Pen player in the final 5 and get the suspension I will be pissed.
-
Because he is a blatant and obvious troll!
-
And if you are not going to enforce the rule get rid of it! I am waiting for the day when a ref has to stop and look at the name on the jersey before putting his arm up!

Your s***ty goaltending is a by product of your scouts, coach, gm, and lastly your Goaltender himself, not luck on the Wings part. Please acknowledge that both of the goals Pit has scored this series were lucky and I will concede that the Wings have been luckier. Until then, in my book you have a s***ty goaltender when it comes to SCF, his ass has scored more goals in the SCF than most of the Pit team! Unfortunately his ass has scored for our team!
