Title: Other games around the league 17-18
Post by: alta on Thursday December 21, 2017, 01:52:47 PM Eastern
surprised this hasn't been started yet, and this is about the time of year I start playing attention to other games rather than just the standings

I know Columpus has been faltering lately but I was really hoping they would've beat the Hens on the 21st

What with the silly scheduling this year and all, I got around to a bit of browsing.  I took in the Blues/Knights game last night.  What a great game!  Not much scrapping, but a really good hockey game.  Fun to watch.  A pretty good advert for hockey.


Finals of the U's tonight.  Canada vs Sweden.  Good game so far.

Hi all.  Haven't been around much but I've been watching the games.  Anyhoo, was checking out a bit of the hens/Bs game.  Anyone watching?  Thought I'd start a thread for other games, so voila.

Bs/hens - NBC must be in eternal orgasm mode.  I'd like to see them break each other...

Lady & I are watchin the Wings/Hawks game.


I’ll say it again, Mike Green is playing the best hockey of his career this year.  He’s been shutting Kane down and came up with a nice, easy goal.


Great for him, . . . but probably not for us.


His contracts up this year, and the Wings are in rebuild mode, so he’ll more than likely be moved by the Trade Deadline.


It is unlikely for Holland to trade in the division unless the deal is two good to pass up. . . But, within Headman our, Holland and The Captain could come up with a mutual “A Plan” discount.


Right now, if he plays like he has been (and not like he did here) The Caps could definitely use him.  But, I think of an A Plan trade that would benefit both teams 😆

That was a sweet goal by Green.  I was somewhat sad to see him leave the Caps.  I liked him myself, but he did make some stupid mistakes.  Kind of the way I feel about Carlson.  I don't want to get rid of him either, but I wish he would clean up his game and be there 100%.  Green has one hell of a shot.  On that last goal you could see he knew it was coming well before the pass came to him.

That would be cool if we found a way to get him back, but he's just too expensive.

Tyler Bertuzzi (Todd Bertuzzis nephew) gets his first NHL goal.


That kid looks more like Dino’s nephew than Big Bertz 😁🤗


This is the best I’ve seen the Wings play in a LONG time.  Minimal mistakes (if any), everyone playing their asses off, and without Abby and Helm. . .


(And we’re goin in Feb and March 😈😈)

Green has improved his overall game but I wouldn't want him back unless we got a discount. When Green was here I'm sure he didnt play within the system. He was all over the ice. In fact the commentators used to call him a rover. He was very good on the pp though.

Oh believe me, I couldn’t STAND that shit, or BB not benchin his ass for it


Which is also why I say he’s playing the best hockey I’ve ever seen him play


I can guaren-god damn-tee
 that shit won’t fly with Holland, Brash, or Hank . . . which certainly is part of his turnaround

So if it’s him being forced to play the right way, or if it’s that AND him finally growing the fuck up and realizing how to, and how not to play.


But if it’s the later, and the result is a Dman that shut Kane down and scrape up a goal like it’s no big deal. . , then HELL YA!!


On the other hand, if he came back in old form,   we have far to much of that as it is

Agree wholeheartedly. . .  but, that fact that he knows he is a weasel, owns it, and gives little to no excuses, apologies, or asks for special treatment . . .   


I at least respect him as much as I can respect a weasel 🤣🤣

My timings seem to be way out.
I tried to tune in to watch the Hawks/Wings game, but it was already over.  I got the Canes game - an hour earlier than advertised....
I was hoping to catch the Hens/Rags game, supposedly at 7.30 your time, according to the NHL (which is where I got the other timings from). soooo...?  Anybody know if that's still on?

Watching the Islanders @ Canadiens game tonight was a dramatic illustration of the inconsistencies and insanities of the NHL's Refereeing and replay challenges.

In the second frame the Canadiens were down 4-2 and scored a PP goal just as the PP was ending.  The Islanders challenged for offsides on the goal.  The entry was 53 seconds prior to the goal and the Hab that entered the zone with the puck was deemed to have been offsides. It was so close and it came down whether his skate was one inch off the ice as he received the puck and entered the zone. The challenge overturned the goal. Since it happened so long before the goal the Habs got the clock reset and had another 55 seconds of PP.

This was bad.  We've discussed the insanity of challenging offsides after a team has been in the zone for so long.

Then within a minute a penalty was called for interference against Montreal as they were on a breakaway chance. Within moments the replay showed that the Islander player lost an edge and fell into the Montreal player. So Montreal goes from a scoring chance to a PK on a bad call and even though the Refs could clearly see the replay withing seconds they did not/could not change the call.

They spent 3-4 minutes making sure they got the ridiculous offsides call right, which shouldn't matter anyway, but there was no way to act on what should have been an instant reversal of the totally wrong interference penalty.

 :clown: "Absolute Stupidity", that should be on all NHL business cards.  :poop:


I believe this cost Montreal the game.  They lost in OT.

The guy is a dick.
Don't get me wrong, he knows about (old school) hockey, but he is incredibly biased towards and against certain teams and certain players and certain countries.  He is a bigot and proud of it.
Occasionally he comes out with stuff that makes sense, but it's usually wrapped around loads of egotistical, self-important, arrogant diatribe.  He may have been relevant once upon a time, but now he's just an embarrassment and a clown.  :clown:
Luckily I don't have to see him very often any more, but every time I do he still comes out with, " When I was with the Bruins"............

Nice jersey but I'm not a fan of Vegas. I admit I'm a bit pissed about Vegas being able to load up their team with a lot if talent as an expansion team. They did a good job I guess but the rules made it easy for them. They may not have a ton of superstars but there was so much talent available it gave them a ton if depth. They might have the most depth in the league.

   To be honest I only have 6 jerseys. 5 Caps jerseys and  a San Fransisco Spiders jersey. I would like to add some others. I'd like to add, Dallas, Nashville and Anaheim for sure. Maybe The Flyers, Jets or Avalanche.
    I would really like to add some jersey from teams that no longer exist. Hartford Whalers would be first on my list. I'd like a Cleveland Barons, Kansas City Scouts and Colorado Rockies jerseys as well. Those will be harder to find. I guess I should include the California Golden Seals to my list. The jerseys were ugly but my cousin played for them.
   I wonder if the old WHA jerseys are available. I really liked the Cincinnati Stingers jerseys.

Pens aren't just losing, their getting their asses handed to them.   8-3 as of now.   Oleksiak called Chara out for a fight.  He held his own, but Chara, at 40, still got the better of him.   6'9" vs 6'7" - big boys to say the least.

Happy to see the Flyers lose, Caps and Flyers have now played same number of games and Caps have 1 point lead.  If Murray is out for any length of time Pittsburgh has goalie problems as evident from tonight’s game.  Caps have tough stretch coming so we need all the help we can get.

   To be honest I only have 6 jerseys. 5 Caps jerseys and  a San Fransisco Spiders jersey. I would like to add some others. I'd like to add, Dallas, Nashville and Anaheim for sure. Maybe The Flyers, Jets or Avalanche.
    I would really like to add some jersey from teams that no longer exist. Hartford Whalers would be first on my list. I'd like a Cleveland Barons, Kansas City Scouts and Colorado Rockies jerseys as well. Those will be harder to find. I guess I should include the California Golden Seals to my list. The jerseys were ugly but my cousin played for them.
   I wonder if the old WHA jerseys are available. I really liked the Cincinnati Stingers jerseys.
HA!!!  I found/got a KC Scouts Jersey for my sisters ex a few years ago,   Heh now I almost wish I kept it  >:(

Most of these will be replicas or reasonable facsimiles, but every now and then some one cleans out their attrack and you can find one that was at least made when they existed.

I was thinking the same so came on here to see if anyone else thought so.
I also can't stand how Fucking excited the play by play guy gets for Shittsburg goals. You'd think they were the shittsburgh hometown announcers.
HATE HATE HATE NBC and Pittsburrgh. Penishead came all over himself when Cindy tipped that one in...like no other player in the league has ever done that.


And then Malkin diving in a counter hit by a Flyer and collapsing like he was mugged. Gomfucking play soccer you diving pukes.
So sickening. I hope Philly beats the shit out of hem the rest of the playoffs.

One of the many reasons I wanna beat the retard and estrogen out of that woman James Hackett.

  As a Ford stockholder with direct financial incentive. . . I say fuck crossovers, I’ll eat the $ .05 cents a share that he  says he’s “protecting” to keep the Richard Petty of drag racing under the Blue Oval.

 
“Win on Sunday, Sell On Monday” . . . I’ll take any stock hit for the wins.  In fact I’ll buy more  just to beat General Refurbs and Mopark every week on every track

Did you have fun? Did you enjoy the tear gas in the pits?? Going to the drags I got some of the worst sunburns I've ever had, I'm not much of a hat person,

When the pro stock bikes came along, I got to meet Angelle and Stephanie, oh and Karen Stoffer.
and I always liked Ashley over Courtney.


and one weekend down there at Dinwiddie I had an extensive conversation with Dave Schultz. I was this close (holding finger and thumb together) to quitting my job here and joining the pro stock bike circuit. That would've been late '90s

Oh hell ya it was fun, even if it was 130 degrees on the track


But you’re damn right, I don’t see how anyone could not like John.  Just an all out hell of a cool man.  He still rides his bike along the side or the track while the rest rode back in their vans etc.   The NHRA events probably run so long do to him signing autographs and hoodies n around with fans. 


For Ford to pullout of NHRA while dominating it, and having the most fan friendly and accessible family in sports under contract because they wanna push minivans and crossovers is simply pathetic
