Other than the horrible officiating, which I think is getting worse and worse, Sean Avery is the single worst thing that the NHL has going against it.

He is a cheap dirty player, not in the good way like Tie Domi was.

He is a coward, I can't tell how many times he makes someone *think* they are going to fight and he tries to skate away like he did nothing wrong.

Watch how he handles himself in this video, cheap shots to start a fight, then he just turtles and pretends he isn't fighting until he thinks he has an advantage and then actually pulls a take-down on the ice. No one does that. Except him. The day he retires will be one of the best days the NHL has seen in years.

Yea, I hate dirty cowards. And he is the worst.

Mike, I may be overreacting but I really think it was a poor call on the Bolland disallowed goal....I might cut the linesman slack on the Erhoff goal as it would be real tough to see in real time, but I am not convinced that the Broweur contact with Miss Lou meets the standards of the rule. I thought two of the penalty calls were jokes too...but you are right, bottom line is they had their chances, Miss Lou played well and it's all in the rearview now.

Avery is a punk, afraid to straight-up square off with anyone anymore...he won't fight unless he can start the fight with a decided advantage. Bush league.

Ahbroody · 02-05-2011, 11:31 PM

I hear you Tom.
I think they did a piss poor job as a whole and I think the 5-3 was their way of trying to even up the Eirhoff mistake. I just found myself yelling at the computer a little when the Hawks were on the PP all night. The PP reminded me of the Sharks PP at times this year, frustrating. Loads of talent but no finish.

Wings dropped another tonight. Rutroh is the age of the D core catching up with them over the long season? Kidding, looks like they are hitting their ruff patch for the season. They just cant score at times. Hoping the pack tightens up will make it a very exciting end to the season

icehog3 · 02-05-2011, 11:34 PM

Watching Flames V Kings.....if they go to OT, the Hawks drop to 11th.

chand · 02-06-2011, 01:51 PM

Forsberg is back in the League. What is the over/under on the number of games he plays before he suffers another injury?

Ahbroody · 02-06-2011, 02:00 PM

Ill go under 20

Watchin the Blues game, really glad they're playing Conklin in net, I don't think Halak is cut out for the NHL.

icehog3 · 02-06-2011, 02:52 PM

Halak isn't having as good a year as he did last year with the Habs, but "not cut out for the NHL"? Gimmie a break. He is a good goalie having an average year, and his stats are much better than Conklin's.

Halak GAA 2.62 Save Pct .907
Conklin GAA 3.30 Save Pct .876

I'm not arguing stats, because those are in ink, but I think he's going through a real slump and is having some confidence issues. I think Conklin has gained some confidence as of late and its giving the Blues a chance to win. And who knows, maybe it has been the move to St. Louis that has put him in what I see as a rut, but I will say, all of St. Louis is pulling for the guy!

icehog3 · 02-06-2011, 05:07 PM

Well, I wish Conklin and Halak well...except when they play the Hawks.

I remember when Shanahan stepped into Roy. Of course Roy skated clear across the rink so he could be the third man into a fight; so Shanahan was just keeping it fair. Those were epic games and fights.

I know! I am so stoked for the kid. He got so much grief his rookie year. Roberts and St. Louis deserve tons of credit.

Stamkos is a beast!! I really enjoyed watching him vs. the Blues the other night.

icehog3 · 02-07-2011, 03:19 PM

Agreed, I really like Stamkos as well, hopefully he stays healthy and is around a long time.

kugie · 02-08-2011, 08:24 AM

Savard, is done for the year.
I Hope he can get his head fixed, or just the rest will do him a hell of a lot of good.

Use his money to rent a player for the rest of the year.
