Hawks look like they might join the 'Canes in a club they don't wanna join.

Well Tom I would take that over the Sharks being the Blues of years past. Make it to party but never bags the prize

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

I hear you, Mike, nice to have one in the bank....but I never would have even thought we would be this inconsistent even with the changes....

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

I saw some stat about your pk going from top 5 to one of the worst in the league. There were some other not so flattering stats also.

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

Yup...might have been offset to some degree by the fact they were #1 in the PP a week and a half ago, but that has gone belly-up too.

Logan has set the record for a rookie scoring game winning goals on the road with 8 surpassing larmers 1982 record of 7. He has 24 goals on the season. Seems a lock for rookie of the year if he keeps going.

Today on the post game players discussed how during the 6 game losing streak they got lazy and selfish. Sharks move into fourth and are red hot nipping at the Stars heels with a chance to take over the pacific tomorrow.

Niemi with back to back shutouts. :r :wo

Steve Larmer is my favorite player....F**k Logan Couture.

Looks like it may have been ballard not Bieksa they were discussing in trade for Seto. Tonight on NHL network they discussed the Canucks were in possible trade talks on Ballard just prior to his injury monday.

As you are a Pens fan I was wondering about your view on Cooke. Honestly Avery is a dirty POS but I think Cooke is the biggest POS in the league. Cooke runs around the ice hurting people. On Saturday Cooke stuck the Leg out on Ovi. Tonight he drills Tyutin from behind. Possibly ended Savards carrer now. This video by Grapes shows Cookes history. The guy is Dirty then Avery and I think the league will be a better safer place when hes gone. He is one of the reasons the headshot rule was changed. Yeah he is a huge POSHHHHHHHHH!T As much as I dont like Avery I think I would take him over Cooke.

This was last year and he has had some questionable hits since then and some attempts to injure.

I Haven't heard that name in ages. :tu WTH was with that 3rd period collapse by the Lightning last night? F' Drew Stafford too.

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

I got no problem calling out Matt Cooke for his dirty hits. Those last 2 you mentioned were weak though by comparison to some of Cookes previous infractions. He now has a rep, just like Avery where he can be baited into a call. Ovechkin had his knee out just as much as Cooke, (don't wanna get started on how dirty Ovechkin is) and Tyutin actually saw Cooke coming and turned his back.

A 'dirty' player gets what's coming to him. Cooke gets his azz handed to him time and time again for what he does, Avery cries and runs to the bench. That was the point I was making about Avery, what a coward he was.

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

I thought the definition of "Blues of years past" was face the Wings in the post season, get :sl, repeat next year.


;s

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

I know tyutin knew he was comming, but all Cooke saw was numbers and if you watch the hit he could have glided in and tied him up. He instead goes in full speed, leaves his feet and launches him into the wall. Its just typical of him and why he is so hated. Given he has injured a lot of players with knee on knee hits many of them stars he clearly has no conscience to continue to try.

While I agree Avery is dirty and runs and hides Cooke is so much worse because he is out their trying to end peoples carrers. He has destroyed a lot of players knees. Constantly dlgoes after peoples heads and appears to now have ended a carrer prematurely and been one of the primary reasons a rule was created to protect players from his tactics. Avery is not as dangerous and in my opinion evil as Cooke. Avery pulls bitc& moves and punks guys.
Case in point who in the hell would deliberately kick at a players neck? This guy needs to go and is in my opinion more of a detriment to the league then Avery.

WOW Mike. That is nuts. Intentional blindside headshots and knee to knee hits are terrible. Trying to kick a guy in the throat with the blade of your skate is friggen psychotic.

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

Dont hate the playa. My wife thinks he looks like a rat. Kids got skills though and could be a star.

Pops is an Old Fart! His favorite players started playing before many of us were born.

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
 

I know it has been posted before, but since that prick Cooke is being talked about again for doing something dirty, I thought everyone should see this knockout by Evander Kane again.
