ok, hockey takes a next to godlike effort

Kopecky did actually score a nice goal in international play once, he jsut seems to suck in the NHL thoguh

Never said you dont know as much about hockey as me, but if you havent experienced playing it at a high enough level how can you say that, due to financial reasons i was a hockey fan for 16 years of my life and never played, i played other sports such as football, basketball, and baseball, the latter 2 couldn't bear to play because the lack of contact and the first was a game that i pretty much dominated until i got bored. Finally i got to play hockey, and nest year I am going to try to play Junior A here in WI, it has taken me 3 years of hockey 24/7 365 and i still have to gain another 20 lbs if i am going to make it. and a ton more skill but i work out at a place called puckmasters here and the teacher i have knows more about hockey than all of us here.

Without understanding where i've come from its hard make that judgment in my case, in any case hockey is far harder than any other sport and to make it into the NHL is nearly impossibel unless you have an insane work ethic

his only upside is that he draws occasional penalties and injures other teams players, hes not even as gifted offensively as kopecky, plus anyone remember when he basically just handed Franzen the puck last game?

never said he wasn't a cheapshot artist, but he is by far in a much higher class than Tootoo

i get you;re point, but hockey is pretty much impossible to play, to regard it on the level i do, you have to play it, i understand you hold it high, theres no doubting that but once you've played, you know

Hockey is the greatest sport, every other sport sucks, you'll know once you've played it and not watch it like most people do.

Clowe did the same thing after getting jumped:

After a nice dive no-less

i would not want Tootoo on this team and i will make a comparison to Pronger and Chelios, they are both guys Wings fans hate and used to hate, but in reality they are good players and Pronger is not as bad as everyone thinks, sure he has the stomping incident and a few elbows but he dosen't run around purposefully boarding, charging, and kneeing anything in sight and he actually has a ton of hockey skills unlike Tootoo. Regardless, Tootoo missed his check big time hahaahah.

you mean these:

Go become a predators fan then...

It should have been played at soldier field or a college football stadium like northwestern nearby but im not sure how big that one is.

It's a hockey game, dosen't need to be trashed by low class sports

original:

Do it all the time, ive followed the Bruins alot this year, no where near what the Wings org is.

Glad im watching the bruings/thrashers- hawks/wild games

Maybe Leino or helm for kopecky, or a goalie for ozzie, otherwise let injuries decide whether to use Griffins

if im not mistaken, the WJC's run alongside the NHL season, so does the mem. cup, but i would be more apt to watch the memorial during the NHL season

lol nice dive

MUUUUUUUUUULE

lol @ the wings fans there

yeah, thanks, a melting of the avs would sufficiently mend it heh
