I hope they chase him all the way out of Buff to long Island...gawd we need a goalie

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

It would be nice for him if he actually had a defense, hopefully he will go to Long Island....just keep him outta St Louis. ;)

We have a lot of up and coming D men that are projected to be quite good. one of our weaknesses may become one of our strengths.

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

That was a slam on Buffalo, not on the Islanders, My Brother :)

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

didn't take it as a slam just conversation... and oh but BTW our D has been Deplorable.

future watch: Brock Nelson. this kid is the real deal.

Love me some Travis Hammonic myself.

Kris Letang had a stroke? WTF? How did I miss that....?

Glad to hear it appears he is going to be fine and resume his career in 6(?) weeks....crazy.....

Also, I was up early to watch the US Women's hockey team take on Canada this morning. The US Women's team had some tough calls & no-calls today and that loss stung a bit, but they will see Canada again and I can't wait to watch again. (I still want to know what that ref saw on replay that told her the puck went over the line before the whistle on Canada's second goal)

Can't wait for the US Men's Hockey to hit the ice!

I'm sure other teams have these pages as well, but for Bruins' fans here is a tracker of who, what and when in the Olympics.

My Dad calls me today and asks if I am getting up at 6:30 AM to watch the USA game.


After I stopped laughing hysterically, I explained TiVo to him. :)

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Yeah, cant argue the Hammer... De Haan is looking pretty good this year too. and we supposedly have quite the D core coming in the next few years.

With Frans now out after that two handed slash vs. the Av's I think My Motto is "Be Bad For Ekblad." supposedly an elite D man. But I'll take any of the top 3 nicluding Griffin Reinharts baby brother.

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Local B&M owner opened the shop this morning at 430 this morning. He sent out emails to customers saying to come watch. Uhhhhhh I love hockey, but I need sleep. Sleep wins.

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Holy snikes, looks like Russia may be done, down 3-1 going into the 3rd.....

No idea how I am going to watch the USA game @ 10:00 AM, may try to stream it on the iPad at work or head to the gym and watch the last 2 periods on an elliptical(2 birds, 1 stone)....

All this Gold or bust pressure on the RUS hockey team looks to bee too much for that team to handle. Guess they still have 2/3rds a period to prove that wrong.

Thought Latvia was going to rock the world.

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Tomorrow : USA vs Canada - Women's Gold Medal Game - 10:00 MT

Friday : USA vs Canada - Men's Semifinal - 10:00 MT

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Cool as that would have been in one sense, it would have robbed us of US-Canada, and somehow if the US had ended up with the Gold, Canadians would have said it was tainted. :r

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Truth be told, I would have thought it was not as "fun." When watching the Olympics, I think you want to face and beat the best.... IMO, that includes facing Canada in the USA draw....

Re: NHL '13-'14 Season Thread
 

Absolutely. :tu

Dang, and we've roomed together! :lr

Looking forward to Friday, loyalties are skewed....From the US, but 3 of my favorite Hawks playing for Canada. Hoping for a great, close game.
