retrospectacle Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 Rangers played a solid all-around game tonight. Hank is pretty amazing between the pipes. Did anyone get to watch it? What was your take on the game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snaggle Von Swift Posted December 24, 2011 Author Share Posted December 24, 2011 The way they collapse the D in their own zone and put all bodies in front of Henrik is smart, makes it pretty difficult to even get a puck on him. Flyers will win the Winter Classic though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcm1610 Posted December 25, 2011 Share Posted December 25, 2011 Re: Boston - they get a bit of a bad rap because Campbell's kid is on the team so some people think they get preferential treatment, and they're full of scumbags like Lucic and Chara. No one outside of Boston likes them. I do like Tim Thomas though. It's such a feel-good story for how hard he had to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weinerdog Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 The Sabres were incredibly impressive against the Leafs, what happened?? So long as the Leafs keep losing I'm happy. Does anyone care about the Leafs in the US? It's insanity up here. Surely you jest There are thousands of Leaf fans at every road game they play, and they're not all Canadians on vacation. I'm Minnesotan, so I root for the Wild unless they're playing the Leafs. But I do get why they're hated(overexposure in part). I guess you wouldn't have cared for my old Leafs room: http://www.brianandtrish.com/chexx.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your naming Bruins scumbags you left out Marchand. They are sort of the perfect team for that town though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shenanigans Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Anybody watch the WC alumni game yesterday? Seein Parent decked out in his gear was great. He fell and made it look like a great save - said in an interview he didn't think he was gonna get back up. First goal was LeClair from Lindros and Recchi. I was a bit surprised at the cheer that Lindros got, but I guess he was wearing orange again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snaggle Von Swift Posted January 2, 2012 Author Share Posted January 2, 2012 I was at the Alumni game, it was definitely great to see all of them on the ice one more time. Will be at the Winter Classic tomorrow as well. Super excited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcm1610 Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 Bruins are ridiculous... they're just too good. Lindy Ruff needs to get out of Buffalo. Fourteen years is an eternity in the pro coaching world, and for some reason he doesn't have to perform. Something like 6 coaches have both won the cup AND been fired since he started his tenure here, yet he gets to coast on because he took a team (that he inherited from Ted Nolan and rode on the back of Hasek) to the Finals and had two Conference Finals appearances. I hate when the trade deadline is approaching. I work at an ice rink so I'm around hockey every day (and love that part) but the conversations get tired and repetitive, and it's just funny/sad/annoying when people pass off internet trade rumors as legitimate things. "I heard Miller, some shitty prospect, and all of our trash that no one wants are being traded for this teams' superstar!" Yea? Why would they take our trash and give us a legitimate performer, and who's going to play goalie, smart guy? You're going to ride Enroth, backed up by McIntyre, to the cup?

retrospectacle Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 Anybody else as anxious as me to see the first Rangers/Bruins matchup of the year? Rangers D is friggin' awesome right now. And combine that with Hank's goaltending they become a legitimate contender. Rangers are also leading the league in hits. You think they're big enough to stymie the Bruins' offense. First meeting is in Boston, though, so hometown crowd will be a factor. Who do you think will take the season series? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retrospectacle Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 The NHL called off plans Friday to realign and adopt a modified playoff format next season after the players' association refused to agree to the changes. I hate unions. Are these reasonable concerns? I think they refuse everything just to prove they call the shots. From ESPN: Two substantial player concerns emerged: whether the new structure would result in increased and more onerous travel; and the disparity in chances of making the playoffs between the smaller and larger divisions. "In order to evaluate the effect on travel of the proposed new structure, we requested a draft or sample 2012-13 schedule, showing travel per team. We were advised it was not possible for the league to do that. We also suggested reaching an agreement on scheduling conditions to somewhat alleviate player travel concerns ... but the league did not want to enter into such a dialogue."

mcm1610 Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 Waaaah... I make eleventy-billion dollars a year but I have to TRAVEL! waaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh! The disparity between the divisions is valid, in my opinion, but fix that by cutting out two teams, like... Columbus and Florida or something.

kevin848 Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 All this talk about the Bruins, then Marchand goes and get's suspended. I'm not saying I think the B's are overly dirty or anything, but Marchand looks like dirty guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcm1610 Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Yea, 5 games for Braddy... good! Fucker. Can't believe they rescinded Lucic's misconduct for leaving the bench and fighting. Ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
