  1. I agree with getting Tommy some back up to slot in every once in a while....kings games etc. Weise is no deterrent and Kassian belongs on the ice.
  2. well i hope not. though i have questioned his suit choice too at times.
  3. not to be a craphead but local grassroots animal rescue facilities are better served with donations which i bet torts would agree with. the spca is the value village of animal welfare.
  4. never been so interested for a match against the Oil....well not since they were relevant.
  5. oh ya he was definitely ridiculous....the frothing at the mouth voice cracking snap mode....over talking weakes and friedman.
  6. Whatever. It was worth the "two minutes" as they say.
  7. not really true. he is an annoying mouthpiece, and an amateur panel guy but: he was a dynamic fighter that regularly fought out of his weight class and won a lot of his fights.....just sayin http://www.hockeyfights.com/players/97/fightcard/reg2003
  8. I see your points and yes im old enough to know the history.I didnt say BM wouldnt hit "anyone".I said he wouldnt hit a sedin. Would he?I just feel that at some point the distraction tactics need to end and this team needs to resume competing on the score board.And I think you would agree this team is losing its grip on that ability for which I mainly put on MG
  9. BM would not punch out a Sedin. A fwd line up of tommy and the twins would have sufficed. tommy vs BM cos they know the code, respect, and have fought each other. that would have been it. then kass with the sedins rest of the night as deterrent. score goals and win. we barely beat the flames anyway. it took a shootout. this team has real issues that involve the objective of the reason behind playing - winning games. i love fighting in hockey. but its not the canucks. we're not gonna fight our way to the cup.
  10. I know that you know that kessel is a stick swinging pansy and that John Scott Magtatten is not.So essentially comparinf either Sedin to Kessel from an on ice antics display is not credible.
  11. agree it was a tough spot to be in however as my post stated at some point the focus has to return to filling the net not the box. Eventually people will stop paying 200 $ for bush hockey. Aquilini knows you can pirate Slapshot for free.
  12. This.We allowed the flames to drag us down to their level in our rink.Embarrassing really.Then we barely beat them.None of this woukd be hapoening if we were scoring goals.A bit of a deflection tactic if you ask me. Divert the attention away from the real problem of winning games.Torts helping out MG big time.
  13. Do you really think BM would punch out Henrik Sedin?
  14. I saw bm and sestito drop the mitts as to be expected....imo the rest were pretty slow to throw if the plan was to only attack....westy didnt even throw a punch at bieksa....there have been far more aggressive line brawls than this one before. And yes im serious. You will never see BM punch a Sedin.
  15. True.And everyone knows this about BM including Torts which is why sending out our fourth line wasnt necessary.Mgratten would not have jumped a Sedin.
  16. I think we coulda sent out a skilled line. Magratten and sestito would happen anyway later. Magratten wouldn't jump a non fighter. And Lain shouldnt have had to fight Westy. He should have got the chance to play his first game. Its time to move on from LA and score some fn goals.
  17. Hockey isnt just entertaimnent to me.Its a great game.Ive played it my whole life.I have friendships as a result that span decades.The nhl is being tarnished, the game at the nhl level is losing its soul as its being managed and hnic is a sellout puppet show
  18. Seriously....is there nobody better than Stock? What a mouthpiece!!!
  19. Probably?How is he proving his worth backing into a slot only made available as a result of an injury to the team captain? More reliable proof would involve lighting up the AHL and earning a spot on any line then outperforming a rostered player.
