Yes! I'm so glad I drafted Kessel in fantasy! I'm also looking for big games out of Enstrom and Suter tonight, if anyone cares about the fortunes of the Warren Rebels lol

Even though 2 years of oustings by the SJS have just passed I still hate the Ducks more. It's a powerful dislike.

It's not the fact that they beat the Wings 2 years in a row (well, it is a little) it's the diving that really pissed me off.

Yeah, I feel the same way. At least the Ducks are just flat-out jerks, instead of a bunch of little floppers, cheap-shotters, and whiners. I can soooorrrt of allllmost respect a guy like Getzlaf who makes life difficult for the other team with his tough style of play, rather than with his high diving marks or ability to suck up to the refs. Heck, even Perry's learned to shut his trap and just play some hockey. Pair that with Pronger and Niedermayer being gone, and I can't say I really hate them with a burning passion like I did just a couple of years ago. Of course, the Sharks did lose a touch of classlessness now that Setoguchi and Heatley are gone, but still, nobody on the Ducks currently irritates me quite like Joe Thornton does. That's saying a lot because Perry can still be a turd when he wants to be, and even though it irks me to think he's got a Cup ring, the Hart trophy, and the Rocket Richard trophy, it irks me even more that Thornton doesn't have squat to back up all those theatrics, and yet he just keeps doing it.

edit: had "even more than Thornton" - oops

There aren't many that irritate me more than Joe Thornton. I hope he never gets his name on the Cup. Even though many don't like Corey Perry, I'd be happy to have in Detroit. He doesn't run his mouth as much as he used to, but he's still an agitating player.
