the NHL Thread

[Irishman]

This is a weird game.

 

[silverwheels]

This...was not how I had envisioned this series going. Woodcroft adjusting from game to game better than Sutter? Maybe I'm too pessimistic.

 

[silverwheels]

Also didn't see Markstrom shitting the bed like this. Maybe he'll rebound but woof

 

[Rutgers Mike]

Flyers interviewed Tortorella for the HC job? FML

can we just dig up Mike Keenan’s corpse while we’re at it?

They gonna suck for a long time.

The franchise doesn’t have the word rebuild in their vocabulary. They would rather churn out seasons being the wildcard than blowing everything up and trying to build something.

Definitely. It would be okay if Hart had shown more already or they had a franchise star but their best players aren’t close to that

"I do think there are people in the Philadelphia organization, and I would not be surprised if Bob Clarke was one of them, who are big on the John Tortorella train. I still do think they're a potential for [Barry] Trotz, and I still think Rick Tocchet's getting an interview there. “ - Elliott Friedman

The Flyers Godfather wants Torts. Fuck.

Ed Snider be rolling in his grave with this shit show.

 

[silverwheels]

Dave Tippett is available.

Ed Snider be rolling in his grave with this shit show.

Nah. He let a lot of these chucklefucks in the front office fall upwards. Looking at you Mr. Holmgren.

 

[Rutgers Mike]

Kill me Pete DeBoer

 

[silverwheels]

Colorado looks like they're on a mission tonight.

 

[silverwheels]

Avs-Lightning is going to be FUN

 

[Irishman]

Really starting to slip away from Edmonton next week.

 

[silverwheels]

Pucker time in MENVER

 

[silverwheels]

Sweet, the possibility of Binnington's girlfriend pissing in the Cup again is still on the table.

 

[goblue96]

Pucker time in MENVER

Relax time in MENVER

 

[Irishman]

That was unbelievable!

 

[silverwheels]

MacKinnon

 

[silverwheels]

I thought he actually did go between his legs, but still, holy shit.

 

[digs]

 

[silverwheels]

FUN

 

[silverwheels]

I SAID HEY!

 

[Irishman]

 

[Irishman]

Pucker.

 

[silverwheels]

What a choke. St. Louis is going to be rabid Friday.

 

[CJ_24]

What a choke. St. Louis is going to be rabid Friday.

Would you say that Colorado is . . . feelin' the blues?

 

[silverwheels]

Bozak looks like he should be a state trooper from one of the New England states.

 

[silverwheels]

Calgary is going to come out swinging and probably win, but damn it would be sweet for Edmonton to eliminate them on their own ice.

 

[Irishman]

I don't think Calgary wins tonight. They've looked awful in every game. They just got bailed out by Mike Smith in game one.

 

[silverwheels]

They have, particularly in their own zone, but they also have the talent to at least push the Oilers, and it's at home. And Smith could always revert to being hisself at any given time (he came close on that 3rd goal in Game 4). Then again, Edmonton's top line has been absolutely insane and they're getting good contributions from guys like Hyman and RNH. I still can't believe the LEAVES just let Hyman walk like that. Cap issues, I know, but the guy can play.

 

[Irishman]

Toronto is fucked for years paying those top three players. /gun2head.jpg

 

[Irishman]

Set Jarvis, who is fresh off a cup check a few weeks ago, just took a follow-through stick to the face. He's going to be spitting Chiclets.

 

[silverwheels]

Can't look like a reel hockey player if you have all ur teeth!

 

[silverwheels]

Pretty much the perfect start for Calgary.

 

[silverwheels]

"That's all we got? One goddamned hit faceoff?"

 

[Irishman]

This game is something.

 

[silverwheels]

Woof. Just not Edmonton's night. They better fucking bring it on Saturday.

 

[Irishman]

Calgary has melted down plenty this series. Don't quit yet.

 

[silverwheels]

Yeah. Not sure Edmonton putting its two biggest goons/schlubs on a line together makes a whole lot of sense, though.

[goblue96]

Avs gonna sweep THE Battle of Alberta winner

 

[silverwheels]

 

[silverwheels]

I love how it sounds like there are nearly as many Oilers fans there as Flames fans.

 

[silverwheels]

These cowboy towns putting a bunch of cleavage behind the benches is much appreciated.

 

[goblue96]

How is Mike Smith is bad?
