Hockey Trash Talk & BS thread

I'm excited for Ron. He's one of my best friends. Grew up together and were in each other weddings. He's been in the league over 15 years and played probably 800 games and this is will be his first sniff of the playoffs. We're all pumped for the chance to bring the cup home.

 

Oh ya? That is pretty sweet. I like the addition and I think he will like it here. Tell him I said welcome to Pittsburgh!

 

He seems to like it so far. Hopefully he can be some help there. It'll be good that he won't need to log 25-30 minutes a game there and kill every penalty in its entirety. He used to he one of the better PP point men back in his Columbus and Atlanta days but has really shifted to more of a defender.

 

People that never watch the west coast teams constantly underestimate how good a player Burrows is

 

Anyone else having issues with NHL.tv? All the buttons to watch/listen are grayed out and don't work for most of the games tonight.

 

Yep I had that issue earlier. I got one to work, then copied in the game ID of the game I actually wanted to watch into the url

 

Go kings go!

 

5 points in 2 games for the two newcomers with the Wild.

Oh and once again, fuck you Kuemper. First time all year the Wild have had to pull a goaltender

 

Go Oil!

 

Jannik Hansen a late scratch for the Canucks tonight , trade could be happening

Detroit sends Steve Ott to the Habs

 

Awesome. He has looked good so far. Last night played mostly with Dumo and they were solid. Once we are completely healthy, there will be guys to chew up minutes, so he should settle in nicely to the perfect role


As far as the Pens game, a bit of a disappointment. At times it looked like Dallas was never going to touch the puck, in the first 20mins. Definitely not enough rubber to the net within that time, however. In the 3rd, they came out hard. Got 2 semi-lucky goals and that 3rd goal that I'd like to see Big Murr stop. Oh well, back at it tonight. Should be a good one.

 

This looks like a carbon copy of the hit Bryan Campbell had on RJ Umberger in the 05-06 playoffs.

 

Looks clean to me.
