Good luck moving that contract, Pete. Maybe Edmonton? Does Suter have any trade clauses?

I'm not sure. They'd never trade him....he's "one of us". And you're right, nobody would want that contract for a player whose only talent is being on the ice for 30 minutes.

I stand corrected. Last night's Blues/Hawks game was another great game.

Pfffth Rask has that same limited talent and he's on the ice longer!!!!

Ducks in game 7's at home....

icehog3 · 04-28-2016, 12:13 AM

1st round in 2013. 2nd round in 2015. 3rd round in 2015. 1st round in 2016. Ducks are regressing. I think you can wave bye bye to Bruce B.

AdamJoshua · 04-30-2016, 07:25 PM

Leafs get first pick in the draft, J E T S Jets Jets Jets get 2nd pic,

nutcracker · 04-30-2016, 07:43 PM

Yep - and 1 vs 2 depends on whether you want a centre or a winger. Our last flying Fin (Selani) worked out alright.

Now we have to wait and see who Shanahan picks.

The Leafs will continue to suck regardless.

They, like the Raiders, have put a great many years into perfecting sucking.

You called that.

Great Pens/Caps game. Used to go to Caps games when I was a kid in the Bondra, Hunter, Kristich, Kolzig era. Nice to see them making some noise in the playoffs again. Holt by has been unreal tonight.

AdamJoshua · 05-01-2016, 03:39 PM

I wonder if the Leafs will trade the #1 pick for Rask, or like Rask and 50 American dollars?

Physics wouldn't allow for that - the team would suck so badly it would be like a black hole. Might cause the end of the universe as we know it.

No - he has to stay with the Bruins, to allow for "balance".

AdamJoshua · 05-01-2016, 04:06 PM

I can tell you are one of the people that thought turning on the Hadron Collider was going to cause a blackhole that would destroy the planet, no Neil this would be perfect safe, his 5 hole has been a blackhole for puck for several years now and it has done zero physical damage, psychological damage that's ...well neither here nor there.

AdamJoshua · 05-01-2016, 04:45 PM

Jamie "fifth round" Benn is quite impressive, you'd think you'd hear his name mentioned more with some of the big scorers today.

icehog3 · 05-07-2016, 07:22 PM

I'll be rooting for San Jose or Nashville over St Louis. And if they get to the Finals, I'll be rooting for whoever wins the East. **** the Blues!

icehog3 · 05-08-2016, 12:47 AM

I'm a hockey purist, love the game. Watch the playoffs through the end every year, even when the Hawks get knocked out early.

What's a "herf bet", Bob?

Back to game 7 of the Hawks/Blues - that double ricochet shot off the goal posts by the Hawks is something my buddies are still talking about. They have even snubbed watching the rest of the Cup playoffs. The Hawks are awesome so perhaps they turn another Cup next season?

However, I'd be willing to take a Herf bet on the Blues. I just can't seem to find a taker on that one....

Both my teams won last night. The childhood team took down the pens to stay alive and my CA playoff contest team took down the Preds. One more win for more cigars!!!!! Keep it going!

Hell of a game by both teams, my man Holtby coming up huge for about 20 solid minutes and then it was just the wrong kind of luck. Oh and as a Bruins' fan Phil Kessel can eat a dick.
