2007/2008 Hockey Thread

[Gabriel]

I added you on MSN basha, so we'll work out details. I'd love to take part in a discussion about hockey. Probably the trade deadline, the playoffs and if I can sneak it in there, how much I hate how many teams are legitimately worried about getting Stamkos.

[Plubby]

I don't hate you Basha. Why must you hate me so?

[Gabriel]

So I figured out my microphone issues, and once everything gets set, I'd love to take part in a roundtable discussion.

[Toe]

Pfft. Everyone would just laugh at me as I verbally felate Mats Sundin.

Pfft. Everyone would just laugh at me as I verbally felate Mats Sundin.

If you did that, I'd have to verbally felate Iginla. You know, Iggy for MVP and all that stuff.

That said, if there's no verbal fellation, I think I can keep my Iggy love in check.

Brad Richards plays his first game in Dallas and gets 5 points. Purely awesome. He pretty much GAVE Nik Hagman a hat-trick.

[The Sultan of Swank]

So is Myself, SDM, Hyperchicken and Gabe the group we wanna go with? If so, let me know the best times on Sat or Sunday for you. I'll see if hopefully it all can coincide.

[Gabriel]

Any time between 12 PM and 12 AM Eastern time works for me on the weekend. Except Sunday night, as after 9 PM Eastern, I'll be watching the fights from the night previous.

[Toe]

I hate the stupid Senators. They could be helping us out by WINNING GAMES against people like the Flyers. But no, they have decided to limp there way into the playoffs. What a bunch of gay wads.

[Clawson]

So apparently the top two on the MLSE wishlist are Brian Burke and...

...Bob Gainey.

[SeanDMan]

I'll be waking up at around 6 pm PST and leaving for work at 10 PM PST on saturday. Sunday is all kinds of uncertain, but anyway.

[Guest Mr. T]

...Bob Gainey.

Montreal leads 5-1 after 2. Buffalo's only goal was a big flukey one, puck hits the crossbar, goes off the glass, comes back, hits Price in the back of the helmet and in... looking back, it's pretty hilarious... I say that only because we've fucking raped Buffalo thus far. Oh also, Latendresse fucked up some poor Sabre. He didn't beat him badly or anything, just a straight shot to the nose and he went down.

[Toe]

Thanks to the Canadiens, we move a point closer to Buffalo and are still 6 away from that 8th spot.

I don't even know why I cheer for them to make it, because I know they probably won't and it will cost them a chance at the best players in the upcoming draft.

[Plubby]

FUCK YOU BASHA

[The Sultan of Swank]

Wow, Montreal totally dominated the Sabres last night. Hopefully that sort of game will come out from the Habs when they play the #1 Devils tonight. A 1-2 showdown at the Bell Center against a team we've only beaten twice in the last 6 years... :S Maybe we're just not meant for #1.

There were thousands of Habs fans at the HSBC arena the other night. What I don't understand is that announcers... especially on TSN seem to think the Ole chants that we love are to sorta serenade the opposing team like those goodbye chants. I say nay nay, they're just a bunch of really excited Habs fans and we seem to think we're at a footie match. It was hilarious to watch on tv last night hearing the Ole chants and Go Habs Go chants, The Sabres fans fought back on them in the first and second, but by the third it was just about the Habs arena. Although I really do think there must have been many quizical looks on the faces of Sabres fans when the 'We Want Free Wings' chants started (For those not in the know, in Montreal whenever the Habs score 5 goals or more in a game, the franchised sports bar La Cage Aux Sports gives out 8 free wings to everyone in the bar and if you go the next night they'll give you them then also).

Onwards against New Jersey.

[Clawson]

So I think we should trade Raycroft for Price....any bets on how long it takes for a Leafs fan to seriously offer that trade?

Anyway, Mats is a God. A flat out God.

[The Sultan of Swank]

#1 in the East... how long it'll last is highly suspect haha, but at least we're there right now. That was a seriously improbable win, but Montreal played a pretty good game against the Devils and just took what chances they were afforded.

The Devils only goal, that was a cocksucking goal.

[Ruki]

It's great seeing the Leafs win....but seriously....I want that number 1 draft pick. Don't get my hopes up that you'll make the playoffs!
