All right, everybody, let's bring it back to hockey, please. It's a game day thread, not the water cooler. GO WINGS!!
-
The original play happened off screen. Once they showed the tape, it was pretty nasty. He seemed to be out cold for a few minutes, then he tried to get up and couldn't. Really glad he didn't shatter his jaw or anything. CBC was muttering about how they needed to get fighting out of the game because of things like this. If that's their logic, heck, they should take the ice out of the game. That's the really dangerous part.

I generally root for the Leafs as well, which still confuses my brain. Subban and Pacioretty are on my fantasy team though. Can I root for the Leafs to win but those two guys to do well? Your plan sounds like an excellent one.

Habs up 2-1 on a straightforward goal by Gallager. Leafs claiming offside, refs not buying it. To add insult to injury, Habs on the PP on a pathetically weak call of holding now.
-
Habs tie it 1-1 with 10 min left in the first. Playing 4 on 4 right now. Phaneuf penalized, don't know why, don't know why Toronto was on a 5 on 3, either. Sorry. (I'm a veritable fount of information, aren't I?)

I'm all for some good trash talk, but *yawn*. They're rarely clever or entertaining anymore. This one continues to disappoint.

So about ESPN and their hockey "knowledge"....
vladdy16 replied to unsaddleddonald's topic in General
But... but... algorithms don't lie! I was interested to read the entire article, but not interested enough to sign up for ESPN to have access to it. We all agree ESPN sucks; why do we continue to beat our heads against this particular wall? I certainly don't need any further proof. When I start caring about World Poker Championships, then I'll tune into ESPN. Until then, I have FSD and TSN. -

That's just weird. But then again, considering the source...... -

I don't care if the Wings trade TooToo. I have no desire to see Titanic, Avatar, Silver Linings Playbook, The Notebook, There's Something About Mary, or Borat. I hate the Wizard of Oz movie. Vince Vaughn is beyond irritating. I'm with Jedi - I HATE cilantro, I don't care for salsa, nor will I eat buffalo wings. I LOVE tomato juice, especially V8. With lots of pepper. Like need to put it in a blender lots. I believe it is never too early to drink. -
Setting aside what I consider to be the lunacy (and irony) of getting an unsportsmanlike penalty for removing your helmet before a fight when I consider it the gentlemanly thing to do, NJ and New York have figured out a way around it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CONJgZjVOh8

Please let's not turn this into any kind of political discussion whatsoever.

The worst kept secret since the 2013 Winter Classic "announcement." Fans knew months before the official announcement it was going to be Detroit/Toronto. They act like it's the Red Wedding when in reality it's more like WikiLeaks. Still, yay for The Perfect Human!
-
This is an aberration IME; Bruins fans are usually pretty cool and discerning. In all fairness, this was a beatdown for them, preseason or no. Emotions are running high.
-
Yeah, everyone can come in off the ledge now.
-
Campbell in the sin bin for boarding (?). Not a good hit. Wings PP. Nyquist hits the post. 2:23 left in game, 20 seconds on PP. No score on the PP. 1:30 left. Wings are just toying with them now. Bruins giving up and Wings skating circles around them, playing keepaway with the puck.
-
I think they have a cardboard cutout in the Boston net.
-
Good grief. Why is Subban still in the game? 8-2. No chance - it was Pavel taking it in alone.
-
Liking it, not loving it. It's a hybrid "solution". Still a lot of chance for injury, which is what they were trying to avoid. Anderson makes it 7-2. Poor Subban.
-
6-2 Wings - looked like Kronwall (?) shot deflected in.
-
Beauty of a goal. Bastards.
-
No apology necessary. It's all good. Is Boston fairly lackadaisical about this game or is it just me?
-
Cleary's been reading LGW. Figured he'd better do something to placate the masses.
-
Uh, no, hence the "we had luck last year?" Even bad luck assumes some level of luck period.
-
Fraser was challenging him for no apparent reason; took a lot of convincing, but Jakob finally went for it. Not sure a punch was even actually thrown though.
