sabremike Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Heeeeeeeeeeeeey Josh Bailey, Oooooooooh, Ahhhhhhhhhhh, I wanna knooooooooooow, If you'll punch Larkin right in the face??? And besides that Kromwell was doublely stupid with that hit because it turned what was going to be an easy win into a loss. Until that play the Isles were totally checked out but that motivated the hell out of them. One thing I will mention is that the Detroit announcers were more knowledgeable and clued in about the Isles situation than just about any opposing announce crew I can recall. Also the Boychuck-Abdelkator thing went back to last season. In hindsight Abdelkator probably should've forgotten about it because he got killed. He did give a thumbs up to Boychuck afterwards so fair play to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jiji Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Don't worry, some random shithouse team finishing 8th from the bottom will win the lottery. (hopefully Vancouver to keep the brotherly love thing going) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping our expansion siblings finally get lucky this season, you guys deserve it after all these years you've gotten screwed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine if NBC found a way to monetize Toronto. Every outdoor game would be Leafs vs Hawks (with a doubleheader of Pittsburgh vs Rangers). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piranesi Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 The Blues just took a penalty in 3-3 overtime for "Illegal equipment" and then SCORED A SHORT HANDED GOAL FOR THE WIN!!!!!! BABA O'REILLY!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piranesi Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 So the penalty is this: Colton Parayko loses his stick but it's not broken. And the stick is nowhere near the goal in 3 on 3 play this is a problem, the Avs are pressuing so Vlady Tarasenko gives defender Parayko his stick. Then when he gets a chance Tarasenko picks up Parayko's stick. Whistle...apparently this is illegal. I've never heard of this in my life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone on Blues HF said it was because Parayko has a waiver to use a longer stick and when Tarasenko picked it up it was an illegal stick. Others are saying the ref thought it was a broken stick, made the call and refused to reverse it even though they were obviously wrong because NHL officials totally suck.

Death From Above Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 I actually feel bad for Flyers fans right now. Already fired the GM (and the scout, because he's totally the problem here). Lose in Calgary when they were up by 2 with like no time left, lost in a very sleepy effort to Edmonton, now honestly have been blown right off the ice in the first 11 minutes in Vancouver. This is just not fun to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabremike Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 If the whole situation with Berglund leads to his contract being voided that would be an amazing early Christmas present. That would basically mean Skinner definitely gets re-signed because we get handed $4 million back in cap space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piranesi Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 Am now hoping the pre-game for the next Blues game goes something like the first half hour of RAW just went with maybe Jay Bouwmester in the role of Baron Corbin and the surviving members of the 1980-81 team in all the other roles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say Bob Gassoff could join in but he's dead. Clark Gillies at a Q&A told me he was the most filthy and deranged player he ever played against, and think of some of the guys from that era. When asked the same question Bossy replied Tiger Williams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabremike Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 Also good on Tom Dundon (Canes owner) for doing both a jersey auction and signed Whalers ornament sale at the Whaler Night game this Saturday with the proceeds going to youth hockey initiatives in Hartford.

sabremike Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 We won tonight and I don't even care. All I've been doing for the past 2 hours is refreshing HF Boards and my Twitter feed hoping to hear RJ is okay. He IS the Buffalo Sabres and I'm very emotional right now at the thought of him not making it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sabremike Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 Guys, if I were a GM I would probably be targeting both Jamie Benn and Tyler Seguin in a trade after the rampage their lunatic CEO went on. Come on Botts, offer them Sam straight up for Seguin! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
