I don't care what he does as long s he stops pucks.
But it was reported he did not show his face in the visitors locker room this morning at the Bruins practice. I would say that was kind of chicken ****. |

Not a good first period for the Hawks...talk about turnovers!
|
Re: NHL '11 - '12 Thread
Christ, how about getting some pucks on Backstrom....
Go Avs! |
Re: NHL '11 - '12 Thread
Second period was more controlled but not much on the chances front. Need a big third!
|
Re: NHL '11 - '12 Thread
Big third for effort, too little too late.
The Hawks all looked like they were already on break with the exception of Hossa and Andrew Shaw. If we had 18 Shaws out there tonight, we would have won in a rout. :2 |

I think 4 teams will make the playoffs from the Central, Matt, there order is my only question.
Shaw had more legs than a Chernobyl centipede tonight....Love the kid! :tu |

BTW, Wings are first in the NHL with 67 points and 33 wins. Overall I think they're doing rather well. Ian White was a good pickup with the retirement of Rafalski. Not an easy guy to replace. They need to tighten up on the defensive turnovers, especially in their own zone. Also, while White is playing pretty well, I still see some plays that shows me he's not quite 100% comfortable in the offense or with the players around him. Half way through his first season here I kind of expect that. Hopefully that won't be an issue come playoff time. Go Wings! |
Re: NHL '11 - '12 Thread
Stupid mistakes and a loss, not a great way to send me into the break....
Go Avs! |

Going into the break with 2 straight wins is a great thing, considering the slide the Wild have been in. It'll be nice if we can get a couple guys back after the break, too. Not sure if anyone is that close to getting back on the ice. Go WILD! :) |

Wings are killing it for sure. Sure the Sharks are kicking themselves over White. I liked him last year and was suprised they didnt try to keep him. |
Re: NHL '11 - '12 Thread
I am so glad the All Star break is here. The B's are playing like crap.
Let's hope the break helps. |

Re: NHL '11 - '12 Thread
That was exactly my point Mike. You took a statement in which he didnt say anything anti Obama and said it was "rather anti Obama". A statement where he blames both parties for his dislike of the current state of the government. He blames both parties and never says Obama. You didnt say it was your opinion it was rather anti Obama. You stated it as fact. For that I felt the need to draw your attention to what I believe was an inaccurate statement.
Personal politics aside this drives me crazy and is often the source of much of both sides tactics. Edit: Tom that will teach you to wear that jersey |

Talking politics in the NHL thread...at least you know Tom won't lock the thread! ;) :r
Actually wanted to share a cute story. My 5 yo is in Kindergarten and has library every week. This past week she decided to pick out a book for me. Thanks Erin! :D http://img2.imagesbn.com/images/1790000/1794293.gif You know it's an old book when they referred to Chelios as a "rising star"! :r |

Started watching the 2011 All Star Draft live, and saw Lidstrom at the beginning, and thought "Wings are playing tonight, WTF?". Then I remembered it was 2012. Wings started their All Star break a day early just like the Hawks. |

I know the all-star game is all pretty much bs, but tell me how Kovalchuk, Parise, or Elias don't make the cut???
I think the two rookies who made the squad from the Devils stepping down was not from injuries, but to make a statement. |

Re: NHL '11 - '12 Thread
Agreed, I think a good stay-at-home defenseman is Bowman's priority, though I guess he picked up Morrison as an insurance policy at center, at a relatively low cost. Be interesting to see who they bring into the fold, I was thinking Beauchemin before the Ducks signed him to that fat contract.
|
Re: NHL '11 - '12 Thread
I am hoping the Wings will make a significant add before the trade deadline. They have the cap space.
|
Re: NHL '11 - '12 Thread
The Hawks - Canucks games was quite entertaining game from a strictly hockey perspective. Even more impressive was it being the first game back after the break.
Definitely some world class goal tending from each side throughout the whole game and both teams had plenty of chances. I know the Hawks wanted the full two points but hopefully they can build on the good things as they move on to Edmonton and Calgary. |
Re: NHL '11 - '12 Thread
Awesome goaltending on both ends indeed, Matt. Sharp looked rusty, Toews didn't seem 100% yet, but besides Crawford, I thought Keith was superb. Stalberg looked really good until the giveaway. :hn
Did I mention I hate the Sedins? Hopefully 4 points in the rest of Alberta. :tu |
Re: NHL '11 - '12 Thread
The Sedins have that gift were one can get lost in Dzone coverage and the other gets him the puck at the perfect time...sucks to be the goaltender at that point.
Crazy twin powers :r |
Re: NHL '11 - '12 Thread
if anyone has GCL may want to watch the Sharks game. Sharks channeled the Bruins. 5 fights and 6 goals. You know its bad when Boyle fights.

Re: NHL '11 - '12 Thread
post game was classic.
Boyle mentioned Nash was pissed. He wanted to fight Boyle last game 2-1 Sharks. Boyle declined. Boyle mentioned I guess he still wants to fight. :r I guess he felt Brassard was diving and started yelling at him. There is some serious hate between these clubs. |
Re: NHL '11 - '12 Thread
What a game last night....
Pens were down 4-1 to the Leafs in the 3rd only to come storming back to tie it and force a shoot out and win 5-4. On a tear right now... |
Re: NHL '11 - '12 Thread
I keep trying to talk my kid into changing his number from 88 to 18 next year in honor of James Neal...he won't listen to me!

Re: NHL '11 - '12 Thread
Absolutely DISGUSTING last 10:00 of the 3rd for the Wild last night. Up 4-1 at that point, and LOSE 5-4 in REGULATION. I wanted to PUKE.:pu
3rd goal for the Preds seemed like Harding had the puck covered and in control, but they kept jamming at his glove and knocked it in. Still, NO EXCUSE for falling that flat that fast! If this one doesn't light a fire, consider the season OVER. :( |
Re: NHL '11 - '12 Thread
Nice Win last night by the B's :tu
Let's just hope they they can keep it up and not slide back into the habits they picked up in January |
Re: NHL '11 - '12 Thread
It's so nice to see the Avalanche pick up right where they left off before the All-Star break :td:td:td

Apparently the Oilers have the Hawks number when in "The City of Champions"...17 goals in the back of the Hawks net in two meetings.
Sam Ganger put himself into quite the company with 8 points, only one of 13 players to score 8 or more points in a game. |

I was going to say that was the most intense game of the night.
There were tons of questionable hits on both sides. Very nasty game. I was watching the replay thinking it would be a boring game. Hell no. |

CC vs DU tonight... Go Pioneers!
