OK, if he already had his line out, and saw who the Bruins had out with their home ice "last change", I can see that now.

Goons have their place, but most of the can actually play the game, he's one of the few that are only there to throw down. Even marty mcsorley had a 40 point season once, and he was only around to protect Wayne for a lot of those years.

I love hockey, I love the action, the speed, yes the fights, but even I have a hard time with the fact a team would carry a guy JUST to fight these days, and no it's not because I'm a Bruins fan, I'd rather see a Looch or a Neely out there scoring goals and throwing down.

How quickly we forget.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZqLP...e_gdata_player.

Scott was brought in for a purpose and last night he performed his job perfectly.
Lets not forget that was lucic fight but his a$$ aint going to answer the bell unless he intends on getting a worse beating then thorton did.
https://thehockeywriters.com/props-t...-lucics-fight/
All the respect in the world for thorton for doing what he did.

One things for sure Boston will not be punking miller or the sabres this year as they have already seen their fighter take a severe beating and concussed and nobody did a damn thing about it. If im scott I grab lucic in the corner next time and beat that A$$. I mean ragdoll him. Then watch how no one steps up. Scott will be a hero in Buffalo and it will be advantage sabres.

Yup homer there I go.
Isnt it about time for you to say they need to fire the coach and trade a bunch of players like you did the year they won the cup? Seasons only a few weeks old so I guess you need a few more weeks. Talk about pot calling the kettle black.

Adam thats deep. Trully enlightened point.

I like how even lucic said if it was their goalie somone would have paid. Apparently its only okay if its your guy. Man I hope Scott beats that A$$ now. Lol

Of course you would, but it is what it is.

Another valuable point...and the best news was that Crawford was good once again.

Agreed....shot selection (or accuracy) was awful all around.

Hossa scores with 3.1 seconds left to send the Hawks to O.T., and then the shootout, where the Hawks win. Emery stole the game for the Hawks with 45 saves in a 3-2 win.

Sharks and Hawks still undefeated in regulation. Sharks fell in a shootout, but still look like the Best of the West. Hoping for a great game, Hawks V. Sharks, on Tuesday.

I watched the end of Hawks game at work on phone. Crazy thought they wouldn't survive the OT.
Had to listen to the Sharks game on radio blacked out on GC. Thought it was going to play out the same.

View from the luxury box my kid got to sit in for free


Should have called in sick

Alright all you Eastern Conference guys. I need you to tell me what you think of my Wild trading for Mike Rupp from the Rangers. I'm not a fan of it as we gave away Darrel Powe (don't care) and a big, young talented scorer, Nick Palmieri, who was up and down with us last year. Rupp is just a goon from what I can tell. Any thoughts? Seems like all we're going after lately is brawn and not talent. (After the Parise/Suter signing of course)

Rupp was a decent player for a goon, and a good leader, but his tank is just about empty. Maybe the Wild feels they need his leadership in the locker room?

I agree that it doesn't make a lot of sense. It appears that Powe/Rupp have a similar role: to provide hits. Rupp hasn't been a real goon throughout his career, with only 3 seasons above 100 PIM. Powe had slowed down this season, in the hits dept.

As for Palmieri, I agree that he's still somewhat young (for a power forward anyway), but in 3 pro careers, hasn't shown he could be more than a journeyman, with 87 games played. He hasn't been a talented scorer at previous levels of his career (OHL, AHL) either and didn't crack the lineup as a 23 year-old. He cleared the waivers after training camp, so nobody else wanted him.

That's what I'd say too. Perhaps they even think he can still contribute on the ice.
