He's got a broken heart.

Fixed it for you.


#2170156 Is the Sharks diving.....

Either that or a sniper's in the building.

One with a gun, I mean.  Not a hockey stick.


When Thorton went down all I could think was Jesus Christ they have a grassy knoll in the Tank.

   WOOOOOOOOO!!!



#2158277 new to the forum, some one guide me to the rules?

Posted by softshoes on 26 April 2011 - 02:38 PM

To my knowledge the only rule is to flame Crosby whenever possible. :hehe:

edit: though you won't find it in writing.

#2151075 WCQF Game 2 GDT: Coyotes 3 at Red Wings 4

Posted by softshoes on 16 April 2011 - 03:01 PM

Thank God I only had half a bottle of Crown left today. That last period could have drove me to overindulge if I'd of had the materials.


#2149794 Throwing an octopus at the Joe no longer allowed

Posted by softshoes on 15 April 2011 - 04:47 PM

actually, it was getting sort of ridiculous anyway.  do we really need 7 thrown every game?

a bit excessive.


This

It doesn't seem so much about tradition anymore as about ending up on Sports Center or getting hits on YouTube. Peoples tendency to take things to far is as much to blame as Bettman, an opinion that probably won't get me many friends around here.

The thing is if your going to cite people for this you better start citing people for chucking a hat on the ice. IMO that could be considered discriminating by singling out one group.


#2146962 Lidström interview

Posted by softshoes on 12 April 2011 - 03:27 PM

Q . When you look back, is there one moment or game that gnaws at you, any major regret?

A  . Yeah, that Game 7 at home against  Pittsburgh (in 2009), losing in the  Finals after we were up 3-2 in the  series. Even though we won the Cup  the year before, it still bugs me.

Nice to know we share the same regret. I'll never get over that one. :ranting:


#2119909 Bettman threatens Edmonton.

The world needs more Bill Davidsons. Detroit can't or won't do what's needed for the Pistons so he just says "f*** it, I'll build my own arena in Auburn Hills." No taxpayers money, no bonds, just his cash. Opened in 88' and is still a great place to watch an event.


#2075088 Retire Osgood's #30?

Posted by softshoes on 10 December 2010 - 09:05 AM

I'd say it's up to Hall of Fame voters.

I'm not a hater but IMO no HHoF no 30 in the rafters.


#2065823 Pat Burns has died

Posted by softshoes on 20 November 2010 - 08:58 AM

Condolences to the Burns family. Hockey lost a great one.

I can only hope the HHoF feels shame for not giving Pat Burns his due before he hit the dirt. Shame on them.


#2063434 Banging on the glass at the Joe illegal?

Posted by softshoes on 15 November 2010 - 04:10 PM

Here is a little tid bit if you break the glass you buy the glass, example if kids hockey has a game there and the glass breaks during play not a problem but if your kid hits the glass with his or her stick and it breaks and it is not an accident there parents just bought that broken pile of glass


That's not a pile of broken glass. That's E-Bay souvenirs material. Turn those lemons into lemonade.


#2053245 New Jersey's situation about to explode

Posted by softshoes on 27 October 2010 - 08:10 AM

Maybe he hooked up with "Snookie" from Jersey Shore.

:hehe:


Hooking up with her would not be a healthy scratch. :scared:


#2050738 5 reasons to Love/Hate the Red Wings

Posted by softshoes on 22 October 2010 - 12:08 PM

The tears of the haters sustain me. Their anguish is like a cool drink on a sweltering day. They are the Charlie Brown to our Lucy, we'll always keep pulling the football away while they continue thinking the next time will be different.


#2016301 Hawkeytown? ...barf.

Posted by softshoes on 17 July 2010 - 03:11 PM

In listing the ways Chicago has blatantly ripped off the Wings, you all forgot to mention their style of play.  They draft Kane and Toews (Datsyuk and Zetterberg, anyone?), then add Hossa.  They change to a puck possession style of play and mimick virtually everything the Wings did for years.

They really are like a jealous little brother, only no one ever calls them out on it except for Wings fans.  Bums.


For the last 15yrs or so, probably longer, the Wings have been the cream of the NHL. What stuns me is why someone hasn't tried to play the way we do sooner.

I find Hawkeytown  a pretty clever play on words. Of course their blowing up due to the cap has made my summer.
