would have preferred if he said "... is an abject moron" instead of "... hasn't watched the games" but I guess q is more professional than I am.

was goaltending the reasont he canucks beat dallas? their goalie played great.

that's quite the ... interesting ... look korpisalo has going on there. my word.

the same reason it's a sin to hope the team loses one in boston so they can win the cup on home ice. hoping for losses is for losers, regardless of circumstance. it is, however, perfectly reasonable to view an improved draft position as a silver lining, secondary to the main goal (winning hockey games). edit: hoping for losses while also hoping the players improve and play better as a team is also kind of absurd. the one kind of eliminates the other.

maybe gambling isn't for you. know your limit, stay within it.

they tried to sign gretzky 3 years before he retired (not his prime by a long shot).

maybe you should be a little more flexible? things change, and it was never like tocchet said it definitely wouldn't happen or anything.

he always had a soft spot for gilleum breezbwah.

just terrible. gonna be out of the league in 2 years.

he didn't intimidate, but he was tough like the sedins, taking punishment to make plays and draw penalties. the guy made his career standing in the crease, you don't do that without being tough. he was also willing to dish out his fair share and got a hell of a lot of glove shoved in his mush over his career. it was often on him, to borrow a travis greenism, to drag the team into the fight. it also takes mental toughness not to wilt in big games, high pressure situations. burr was as clutch as they come.

there is no amount of money I wouldn't gamble. they don't look even remotely similar.

it was very clearly not him. any resemblance is due to face blindness.

I'd be interested to see how much overlap there is between the fans that demand the team replace the seats with blue or green ones and the fans that demand the team switch back to the skate full-time.

I'm not sure his 76 game nhl resume qualifies him for a "been there, done that" player perspective since he really never went anywhere or did anything.

they're still dumb as rocks.

move the team to whitehorse.

they're hockey players, not collectors' items. if you can't take off the bubble wrap and let them play, you're never going to win with them.

I sleep a little easier knowing these guys and steamer are still big parts of the organization.

he's feeling unstoppable right now, you can tell. that defensive play late where he stripped duchene? he's on another level.

if he can get his face-off percentage over 50, and ideally over 55, he should be a 100+ point selke favourite every year.

"the kentucky derby is decadent and depraved" is one of my favourite things I've ever read.

I know @stawns has me on ignore, so someone tell him to read "fear and loathing on the campaign trail '72", "rum diary", "hells Angels" and "the great shark hunt". hunter thompson has a cult following for all the gonzo drug nonsense, but he was one of the most genius, insightful minds in history and his journalism is unparalleled.

first round exit for sure.

I must have misread the post I quoted multiple times. even went back to see if it was edited. could swear I read "top 10" in the post I quoted.
