Hockey Trash Talk & BS thread

Some things never change. When the Oilers were a toilet team....they struggled against toilet teams. Now that they seem to be above the toilet level....they still struggle against toilet teams.

 

Go Leafs Go. The setup at outside looks great but I wish they had the weather of the last one. That snow storm made things nuts lol.

 

BIGGEST BULLSHIT CALL ALL YEAR 100%. Fucking call that a goal to keep this game going, what a fucking joke

 

These outdoor games are such a fucking gimmick now, I cant believe after all the goals called back they didnt call that one back, thats fucked

 

This league makes its own story lines now, literally.

 

I actually cant believe they called that a goal, what a gong show

 

I'm guessing that was a league call. OT on a nationally televised is good for Bettmans NHL wet dreams.

 

Outdoor games all suck

 

Outdoor games are over-saturated at this point. I went to the Winter Classic in '11 and honestly didn't even want the tickets for our stadium series game this year.

Anyways, I didn't get to see yesterday's game as I was working on my house. Highlights looked like the end was exciting at least. Matthews is a monster.

BTW Bibaeu's mask >

I had a Potvin replica mask a few years back also, as he was my favorite goalie back in the day.

 

I know it was what i loved growing up

 

Don't look now but Matthews is outscoring Laine. Where's our resident Jets fan? Have the NHL goalies figured out his shot a bit?

 

Montreal Canadiens re-sign Al Montoya to two-year deal

No goal

 

FU Colorado

 

I'm not sure that Laine has been figured out, but it isn't good for him if Matthews is leading or even close to him in scoring. At the end of the day, Matthews is a far superior, overall player. Laine is a good offensive force, but if Matthews can pace him in scoring, then Matthews should get Calder (or Murray)

Good move. He's solid, especially for that money.

 

Habs needed a goalie under contract to expose in the expansion draft

 

Oh ya, I keep forgetting about that.

 

Ding ding ding.

 

Well even if Montoya doesn't get taken, he is the perfect back-up. Fairly cheap and very solid, for a back-up. Most teams either have an unproven guy or someone sitting on the bench who is soaking up too much cap hit.
