The Sedins have proven once again that they can put up points in the regular season but don't have a pair between them once the real season starts. Glad that the Nucks are saddled with them.

re: Penguins-Islanders

Strait deserved a holding penalty, but Crosby still went down on his own. The long-standing question remains what do you do in that situation?


Matching. If you're gonna call that weak **** in OT, you have to match them up.

Re: NHL Playoffs 2013 - Walruses, Trolls and other assorted creatures.

I've never had a problem with the Montreals before, being that I'm a fan of a team out west, there has never been a chance to build up any hatred. But ****, after seeing parts of that game yesterday, what a bunch of cocksucksers.

Also, LOL Vancouver. :D

Whomever wins the Habs-Sens series will be the ones who lose the most teeth.
 
Re: NHL Playoffs 2013 - Walruses, Trolls and other assorted creatures.

Just a guess here. I see Ottawa winning game four versus Montreal to take a comfortable 3-1 lead in the series. Game five will be played in Montreal and Eric Gryba--whose two game suspension ended at the conclusion of game three--will be a "healthy scratch" for that game. Paul MacLean will make sure his player doesn't have to return to "the scene of the crime." If there is a game six--back in Ottawa--Gryba will return to the lineup. ;)
 
Re: NHL Playoffs 2013 - Walruses, Trolls and other assorted creatures.

when you play for the most boring team in the league not many people watch the games..

Yes he should have won the Calder

Gryba can take it ;)

arrogant, hypocritical, smug, cry baby, speaks french (most important factor for a coach for those people--tells you all you need to know)

he fits all the criteria to be coach of the habs--a perfect fit. even his broken english is perfect.

from all i saw last night, the one thing that should certainly result in a suspension, it was bourque's vicious elbow on conacher.

Just contributing some addenda which may have been overlooked by the post's author. ;)
 
Re: NHL Playoffs 2013 - Walruses, Trolls and other assorted creatures.

Who likes hockey and is a bit inebriated right now????


THIS GUY!

That was a good first playoff game in any pro sport for me to attend. :)

I was lifting my beer to my mouth as Couture entered the zone and thought I should maybe pause and see what he might do, but I figured it would jinx to not continue as I was doing, so I continued and he scored the third goal that started the rout. So you're welcome.
 
Re: NHL Playoffs 2013 - Walruses, Trolls and other assorted creatures.

Yet another that hasn't seen the Wild play for at least two years.
Yep. Jacques The Destroyer of Offense has been gone for a while. The Wild have tons of potential offensive talent, it is just still pretty green at this point. Give them 2 years, when Granlund, Coyle, Zucker, Brodin and Dumba have a few years under their belts.
 
Re: NHL Playoffs 2013 - Walruses, Trolls and other assorted creatures.

And Fontaine :D

Schneider or Roberta Lu? Schneider or Roberta Lu? Alain Vigneault should get a good night's sleep while having to ponder that decision.;)
