Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
I'm not blaming anyone but the Canucks for letting Chicago come back to within a hair of taking that series. Nor am I saying that the Canucks did anything other than meltdown in Games 4 and 5. ...

Bah, officiating comes and goes in waves. Sometimes it's in your favour like it was for the Canucks last night, other times it's against you like it was for the Canucks in Game 2 and for much of the...

I get the mentality, I just don't subscribe to it. The best analogy I could use would be if all of a sudden most MLB teams were in Canada and therefore the World Series was usually won by a Canadian...

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
There's been A LOT of questionable officiating this year, but Gillis' rant aside it hasn't really benefitted any one team over the other. My issue is lack of consistency and the fact that whistles...

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
The mood I'm seeing is resigned. There's a lot of hope that the Canucks will pull it out, but the Canucks have also let this city down so many times in the past (not just against Chicago) that there...

Re: iphone 4 just announced.
Does the iPad 1 not support tethering over Bluetooth like the iPad2? If so then you aren't stuck waiting on a jailbreak to get MiWi back.
1. Turn on Bluetooth on both your iPad and iPhone.

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
As understandable as Keith's emotions are, that is not the way to help the Hawks out! Wait until it doesn't matter then take your shot at Torres.

And the NHL's Spinning Roulette Wheel of Justice (tm) strike again, no suspension for Torres. Christ, Charlie Sheen is less erratic than the NHL's disciplinary committee :confused: :mad:

I agree that it looks like Chicago's done at this stage, I still don't expect Vancouver to sweep them. Frankly I hope they don't for various reasons, not the least of which being I think the Canucks...

Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
It'll be interesting to see if Torres gets the book thrown at him again. Not a good hit at all, can't decide if Seabrook owns a certain amount of fault though. It used to be that players knew they...

That's ridiculously weak given the 4 games that Torres got. I don't have a problem with Torres suspension, head shots and dangerous hits need to be eliminated from the game. What I have a problem...
