Hey any rumors about off season signings. I know the Sharks are still looking for D. Are the Wings bringing back Modano? I remember how big it was to he signed with the Wings over the Sharks.



Dude WTF they got Sturm and Wayne. Wrong Wayne though. As a whole he has not been a saviour, but to say any and every other team wouldnt take that trade every day of the week is laughable.

Mike, that's fine if that's what you want to read into it. I guess I take issue because I don't see Wing's players taking cheapshots, yet over and over it keeps happening to them. I'm not claiming they're perfect, but far from bush-league.

Apparently I didn't give the Sharks credi? :rolleyes:

Apparently I didn't say they played better for longer in the series (better in 4 of the 7 games)? :rolleyes:

And, apparently I can't call out a player for taking cheapshots without getting called a homer and a whiner. I didn't say anything about calls. I simply said Thornton is a douche and I gave examples as to why. I remember you calling out Matt Cooke; rightly so. I take issue with guys taking cheapshots too; especially in the playoffs.

If the Bruins play physical which is their game,get a lead and not pack it in they will win it in the third?
The way to beat Tampa is up the middle,get some body's in front of the net like Chara and shoot the puck the point guys dilly dally to much.

The Bruins can't worry about the 1-3-1,just play the game that got them where they are.

Bostons a very good road team, don't be fooled by their size, they skate and open it up when they have to.

Oh and we have Timmy,he has to have his head in the game the first few minutes that's been a sore spot.
I like the B's in SIX :banger

Hawks locked up Crawford for 3 years. :tu

CHICAGO -- The Chicago Blackhawks and goaltender Corey Crawford agreed to a three-year contract Thursday.

The deal is worth about $8 million, according to a source familiar with the situation. Crawford gets $3.25 million in the first year, $2.25 million in the second and $2.5 million in the final year, a source told ESPN.com's Pierre LeBrun.

Bruins outplayed the Bolts the first 35 minutes, then Thomas outplayed them the last 25. All that scoring talent, so little finish. As good as St. Louis looked in the first 2 rounds, he has looked that mediocre this series.

It was a great legal hit by Bergeron (TB) though.

Now Let's Go Sharks!!

Had no problem with that hit. I would have loved to hear the ref's explanation to the Tampa coach.

That was a legal hit, at first it looked like an Elbow and that was the call they stuck with.
They gave one back a minute later when Roloson played the puck out of the trapezoid.
Good game by the Bruins, Tampa won't lay down the B's are in for a fight.

Let's go Bruins. :tu

Legal hit for sure. Bruins got thrown a bone on that, but they still have a tough time scoring on power plays. That was a wallop of a hit though!

If the Bruins can make it to the Stanley Cup, that is like a dream! :banger

Playoff Hockey, a hot Goalie is all you need.

Hopefully soon the B's will be drinking out of the cup, unfortunately no conscious memory of the last Cup, it was the year I was born.

I already addressed the Sedin penalty call and why it was made. It was a makeup. I dont know how else to explain it. The Refs give makeups sometimes when they decide they missed something. Clearly a hockey fan should know that.

You seem to be wetting yourself over the Marleau fight. Please watch the game just prior to the fight. Your tough guy was crosschecking and sticking him. Why doesnt that tough guy do it to Clowe or Eager. He turned down those invites. Yup he goated a former bing winner into a fight. Hes a badass.

Now the Sharks are whiny bit&hes? Dude I am not going down this path with you. Post what you like. Talk all your trash and have fun playing with yourself.

We'll have to agree to disagree, but yes they are acting like whiny bit&hes based on the fact that between Games 1 & 2 they did nothing but whine about how those dirty nasty Canucks are a bunch of embellishing divers. More of the same in post game interviews after Game 2 except this time is was Sharks calling out Canucks for being cowards (because of course Bieska didn't also hand Eager his arse the last time they fought in the in 2009 playoffs :rolleyes: ).

I get it, I really do... the Sharks are frustrated and embarrassed by their performance in the first two games and they're lashing out. It'd be funny it if wasn't just so pathetic. I really hope they (the Sharks) decide to bring their game tonight and make a series out of it.

As for Eager trying to dance with Bieska, unless tonight ends up in another blowout it'll be intriguing to see if Eager is really that dumb after his performance on Wed... because Bieska certainly won't be dumb enough to sit in the box for 5 with Eager in a tight game. Loosing 5 min of Eager's services vs 5 min of Bieska's would be a trade off San Jose would love to get, that's pretty lopsided in terms of talent removed from the game. If it does end up in a blow out I think you're right that there's a very good chance of Eager trying to go after Bieska, but McLellan better be careful about playing Eager in that scenario as the league would probably take a pretty dim view of intentionally creating that situation in light of the last game.

Eager is quite possibly one of the Canucks best weapons for the rest of the series, just goad him into becoming the same player he was on Wednesday (shouldn't be too hard with his history) and then capitalize on the resulting powerplays. Maybe we should get that girl to fly down to San Jose and sit next to the Sharks sinbin as an incentive to encourage his attendance :=:

Frankly I think you'll see the series cool down a bit in terms of the extra-curricular stuff tonight. Both the Sharks and the Canucks are far too dangerous on the powerplay for either team to take needless penalties.

Not sure what I expected to hear, but sure didn't want to hear this.

http://kstp.com/news/stories/S2121106.shtml?cat=1

According to the Hennepin County Medical Examiner former Minnesota Wild enforcer Derek Boogaard died from an accidental drug overdose.

The cause of death is a mix of alcohol and oxycodone. The medical examiner classifies the death as an accident.

28-year-old Boogard was found dead Friday, May 13th in his Minneapolis apartment.

Boogard played last season with the New York Rangers, but spent several years before as a member of the Minnesota Wild.

The 6-foot-7 Boogaard was a fan favorite in Minnesota and one of the game's most feared fighters.

Well just read some articles and Mclellan wants more Eager. He wants more physical out of everyone. He implied if they go down they will take their pound of flesh this time. Sounds like the Canucks should hide the Gingers in game 4 if the Sharks lose tonight. It appears there is enough hatred that if tjey dont beat them they will soften then up for the winner of the East.

I will take payment in form of cigars if Eager gets one of the Gingers or Bieksa who apparently turned down fight offers from more then just Eager.

mithrilG60 05-20-2011 04:38 PM

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 
The Sedin's aren't going to fight anyone, no need. Besides they're not called the Sisters for nothing. As for Eager and Bieska? Meh, if it happen Bieska will eat him. Say want you want about Bieska but Eager was the one refusing left right and centre last year. Hell he wouldn't even drop the gloves with Rick Rypien who he outweighs by a good 50lbs and has several inches on.

The Canucks gave also adjusted their lines in anticipation of the Shark's giving up on the season and turning into the goon squad. They're not exactly a small team either. Not particularly worried about the Sharks. Bigger question for me is do we get Boston or Tampa in the finals ;)

Ahbroody 05-20-2011 06:00 PM

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 
Geoff my post was directed to John. I honestly had promised myself I would ignore your posts to me because I just find them to be random and lacking. I never implied the Sedins would fight and I have no clue how you implied that from my post.

Since you baited the hook on Bieksa and Eager I think this might be why hes scared to fight him. Now this goes back more then a whole year so you may have forgot or blocked out this fight. I know Tom loves this one.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=59zrm...e_gdata_player

I think I have been respectful of the Canucks skill and abilities since preseason where I think I picked them here. I also picked them to win the series here.

That said is it the water? From booing the world jr team (kids) during the anthem, players that pull hair in a fight, chanting Yankees suck in the kings series last year, green guys in skin tight spandex body suits, chicks pulling up their tops to get on tv. Every year its something. Is this the post you want from me?

Is this something that is starting to evolve or has it been going on while?

Eager is a scratch for tonight just announced.
So looks like McClellan was blowing air for the past two days. :r. I thought he wouldnt play and looks like I was right. Given who Vigneaut put in his lineup this could be a great move or a catastrophy as Canucks may really come out and bang hard.

Nice try John im not biting. Maybe Tom will jump in on that.

mithrilG60 05-20-2011 07:45 PM

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 
Honestly I'm not looking for anything from you or anyone else. My initial post was specific response to the fact that the Sharks players were *****ing to the media about the Cancuks diving and the ref's basically favoring them. In the light of that the 2 min to Eager was an absolute gift and as a result any further whining would be even more of a joke than anything else. Period, that's it.

I'm not defending into a dicusson about nationality or national teams because that's not going to get anyone anywhere. There are enough slights on both sides that no one will be happy.

And if you think Eager won that fight we're obviously seeing a different clip. I saw a lot desperation wrestling on Eager's part and no control.

Good to see the Sharks are a completely different team so far tonight, should make the series a lot more exciting.

Ahbroody 05-20-2011 08:07 PM

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 
Said it before you keep going to the Eager hit where Sedin turned into the board as Eager was already coming. Funny the league has been trying to teach players not to do that. Again he got 2.

I forgot to mention Settos highstick which cutt him also which should have been another 4. So thats 8 min of missed PP. The Sharks are 5 for 6 on the PP. If you cant see why they were frustrated and gooned it up same as your team did in a game against the blackhawks in the first round then your foolish. The facts are with those 8 min of PP the score changes the Sharks dont get frustrated and melt down and maybe win game 2.

Again your narrow view of a single hit where Sedin stupidly turned into the boards with Eager coming at him shows a lot. To further shrug off 8 missing minutes of PP timw to a team thats now 5 for 6 shows me all I need to know.

mithrilG60 05-20-2011 08:33 PM

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 
As I said before, there's a BIG difference between the missed calls that have favored BOTH teams and a deliberate attempt to injure by a 4th line goon on a star player that will most likely be this years Hart winner. That's doubley true given that the hit was grossly under penalized. Sorry if that's a bit to hard to understand it is what it is.

Ahbroody 05-20-2011 08:51 PM

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 
Nope players stupidly turning into the boards with a large player coming at them is not hard for me to understand and it wasnt hard for the league to see either. 20 years ago nobody would do that because yhey knew what would happen.

I am now done breaking my promise to myself.

Ahbroody 05-20-2011 10:12 PM

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 
RyJ Belicoso.
Game three is pivotal as they say and the Sharks took it. The basically 2 minutes of 5 on 3 was the game. Didnt see Mcginns hit will have to watch the replay. With Rome likely out for game 4 and Eirhoff with a huge target on his shoulder if and when he plays again. I expect the Sharks to really go after him. Vancouver may be in D trouble if they do advance. Especially given that the Sharks have implied they will take as much out of Vancouver as they can. Would love the Sharks to take game 4. The longer this goes it appears it will not stop being extremely hard hitting.

I know Tom is happy right now

Alain just complained about the officiating. :r. He has also said may not see Eirhoff or Rome.


The hate is officially on and in a major way. May be good for the Sharks if they can control it enough.

OK I'll admit it, I don't understand how you can have a penality call (let's say BOARDING) and a diving call at the same time. If it's a penality (BOARDING for example) then there is no dive. If it's a dive that is the only penality.

I'm sure the Mike's will clear this up for me. :D
