Or the NYRs of the West.

Yeah, after reading all the hateful comments about our 23 years of awesomeness!!!!!! from all the butthurt Leafs fan on tsn and Facebook, I'm going to have to reform my opinion of their miserable fanbase a bit and say that I hope they continue to suck for all eternity.

Not to derail this thread, but anyone bashing Mule's play hasn't been watching him. Yes he's snake-bitten but he's had a ton of chances and he's playing well, driving the net, going to the tough areas, etc.

Exactly. What we saw from Goose wasn't typical production IMO. He was on pace for over 40 goals and I think he's closer to a 30 goal guy. So, it's not like something's wrong with his play now, in fact it's more normal than it was when he was on his rampage.

One last bump for now: Because they do.

That’s because Jurco’s awesome. That was my point. Right now, I think he could play on any four lines and make them all better. He as all of Abby’s tools ( a little less physical) + hands.

Come on man, it's hockey: 110%

Seniority? I dunno. Seemed to work. I think Jurco may have had two tonight (I’m convinced he tipped Sheahan’s shot on the tying goal). I love that kid. He can play on any of the four lines and make them all better. And he’s only 21. Total success story. 100% good vibes.

As long as it's not Blashill, I don't really care.

One of the best in the game IMO. If I'm the Leafs, Canucks, or Oilers, I'm looking hard at this guy.

That's legit. The Penguins are a much dirtier team than the Bs. I guarantee one serious, dirty-play-related injury to a Red Wings if we have a long series vs the Pens.

Columbus would play them "harder" but I think the Pens would be more worried about losing to Detroit.

Oh look. Their 2010 poverty pick nets the winner. Yay.

So, basically I love Babcock. Without him, we would be screwed this season. BUT he’s absolutely brutal sometimes with line combos.

Buffalo appear to be a bunch off****** c***suckers

That’s what you get for not playing with more jam in the first.

Wings had the edge in the first. BUT they seem a little dopey out there and Hackett looks pretty sharp. Need to ratchet up the jam here in the second and crash the net as if the season depended on it.

All I know is that if we play Pittsburgh and beat them, everyone in the hockey world will know the name Luke Glendenning.

I happen to think Comerica has a beautiful exterior. I'm hoping for something equally as impressive with the new arena.

See, I’ve always thought Backes played over the edge a little bit too much. I think he tries to hurt guys and I’m not a fan of that. But what happened with Mackinnon there was not huge deal. No punches, just some wrestling. Also, HNIC were implying that this was in retaliation for a Bordeleau hit on Shattenkirk earlier in the game. Also, IMO Mackinnon does not get a free pass just because he’s a kid. He’s one of their best players and he deserves the same treatment from Backes as say Crosby or Kane. Even though I like him waaaaay more than those two guys. But Jackman is, without a doubt, a p.o.s. Always has been.

Yes, because Vancouver would love to take on 14+M in contracts.

Quite the uhhhhh third line we have here.

A good start for next year would be to get rid of that ******* stupid number and pick something else. 90. Barf.

Any bozo that punches Lidstrom in the face, gets what they deserve for all eternity. f*** Iginla.

Uhhhhhh? Rest of "regular season" you mean. That's quite a bit different than "rest of year". Speaking of rest...........that's pretty much all this is. So, Wingitis if you mean the 2002 or 2008 Wings maybe.
