I cant wait to be back in a timezone where I can actually watch hockey.

GOGOGO IMMIGRATION OFFICERS BE NICE TO ME IN LIKE 15H

 

[Calamari41]

Yeah, walks are the worst.

Onto tomorrow and beyond.

We're surprisingly not salty at all.

I'm salty as shit, I'm just holding it in and pushing it down.

I still think we can take this series so long as Quick stops popping senzu beans in between periods.

Brb, sending them copies of your GAF posts.

 

[SmackCrackleNPop]

We deserve the Quick from the Sharks series with the 7.5 GAA in the first two three games. That's the one people want to see.

 

[Calamari41]

It's the one the people deserve

 

[wsoxfan1214]

No offense to Ducks GAF, but if we get past Minny, I'd rather face the queens again.

Nope you'll Godlike Quick and you'll like it.

LOL Perry filling Carters glove with water

GOOD GUY PERRY
WHAT A GOOD GUY

I was just catching up on the pages I missed while at the game.

Welp. This does it. I will be sporting a Perry jersey next season, officially retiring my Selanne jersey with autographs from the entire 1997 Ducks lineup.

He is my hero and I am not even joking right now.

 

[Unhandled Exception]

It's not even that the Ducks losing disturbs me all that much. It's that if they lose I have to suffer through more Kings hockey this season and fuck that. Get your shit together birds.

At least you don't have to actually live in the Los Angeles area and deal with their fans in person, too. The only positive for us is that we only have to deal with them one month out of the year.

[Dastardly Jerks]

Just finished Hitman: Absolution. What a fantastic game. I got Titanfall on order, so that'll be my next 360 slogfest (for two weeks until I get sick of it like everyone else has).

Still playing Elder Scrolls Online, and it's fantastic, but some of the bugs really kill your momentum with it.

No offense to Ducks GAF, but if we get past Minny, I'd rather face the queens again.

No semblence of an insult in there at all. Not wanting to face us is a compliment.

Please?

Sorry Ducks fans (all 3 of you), there was no way Martinez wasn't going to get the game winner on Cinco de Mayo. It was foretold.

So he was drunk the whole time. Now I get it!

That almost makes me not mad.

See, this is what we need. More Perry support. Because god knows we won't get it from the rest of the league and he's A REALLY GOOD PLAYER. So let's do it. Let's ALL get Perry jerseys. I have NONE yet. I have (Scott) Neidermayer, Getzlaf, Selanne, Hiller (shirt) and Kariya (shirt) but ZERO Perry. My next one will be a Perry!

Perry will always make me laugh and smile.

... Until he does something to injure someone. Which I can't even recall if he has or not. Sure he probably has, I just can't remember it.

We deserve the Quick from the Sharks series with the 7.5 GAA in the first two three games. That's the one people want to see.

We need NET CRASHERS TO BLOCK QUICK. Because right now Bruce is doing the whole "shoot from the blue line" thing and it's the EXACT same problem the Caps had when they were facing Halak in 2010. STOP DOING THAT.

I'm salty as shit, I'm just holding it in and pushing it down.

I still think we can take this series so long as Quick stops popping senzu beans in between periods.

It's OK, I think I was salty enough before for all of us.

5 points for a DBZ reference that isn't cringeworthy.

Yeah, walks are the worst.

Onto tomorrow and beyond.

Unless they're Walks of Shame. Am I right fellas? *hands up to hi-5, gets left hanging for the rest of eternity*

Alrighty, I'm off to Montreal for fortune and glory and hopefully a Habs win tonight. See my NHL GAF bros in about 30 hours.

If you see a real life enactment of my GIF on CBC tonight, it's just me wearing my rat suit and fapping vigorously.

 

[Smiley90]

I nnever noticed the Avs player also getting hit in the head with a stick during the Wild celebrating advancing, poor guy lol.

 

[Unhandled Exception]

I love how the ref comes over to push him away.

Well, at least you said "if" rather than "when".

what a depressing series so far.

 

[Futureman]

I'm going to Pens/Rags on Friday!

weeeeeeeeeeeee!

 

[Giggzy]

I'm not salty because I've already accepted defeat. It's already a challenge to get by the kings wall of defense. Throw an in form quick behind them and it's nearly impossible.

How are our draft picks this year? Is Ottawa's #1 this year or next?

 

[Red_Man]

I'm feeling pretty good about tonight, I'm expecting the Habs to play their best game so far and Prust being out is a huge plus. Just gotta worry about how much Murray plays.

 

[Zaraki_Kenpachi]

Does anyone have recommendations on good starting gear to play hockey? Not sure how much I should spend on stuff to start out.

 

[lamaroo]

Ugh I completely forgot he was playing. Maybe when the pucks hit him they'll drop to the ice instead of deflecting past Price though.

 

[Red_Man]

Lineups could still change as Therrien said he's not confirming anything until today, but I don't see him having him play in practice to not play him.

 

[FUBAR McDangles]

Nevermind. Bad video.

Anyway, go Wild.

I've already started to accept defeat after tonight and have already had a good look at the positives that happened this year. Even gone as far as to see when the Kings will start to fail more than we potentially will.

We have Ottawas this year - and it's come in at #10. I've already evaluated what our potential picks may be based off the central scouting reports.

Interested?

Definitely not.

In hindsight, he helped this franchise by asking for a trade.

We love our defenseman. Is that what we're going for again? Hopefully we can get a future 2C to replace koivu as I assume he is done after this year

[Dastardly Jerks]

Yep, Koivu is definitely done after this season.

Out of the first 20 there are a lottt of wingers. If we literally followed it to the 10th, which knowing Bob Murray we won't, then we'd land Jakub Vrana; a Czech 183cm winger who's been killing it in the Czech league. or Jared Mccann

Jared McCann is a speedy center who plays for the Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds in the OHL. While he hasn't produced as many points as most top prospects he has the ability to be a solid offensive contributor due to his high hockey IQ, speed and passing, while also playing a responsible defensive game. Furthermore, he has shown the desire to battle for his team and go to the dirty areas to get things done.

PERFECT 2C/3C.

I personally feel we might land, and the name itself is kind of ironic... Nick Schmaltz who is an exceptional American centre.

Nick has elite skill. His skating is excellent and it appears as if he's gliding past opponents. Exceptional agility and he's capable of beating opponents quickly in tight areas. Excellent puck skills and he can make plays that create outstanding offensive opportunities. Good shot and combined with his playmaking, keeps defenders off balance. Very smart and poised and can hold puck to allow plays to develop. Top line type.

But the one guy that TSN has ranked at #9 and who I personally want as a prospect... Even though he's a winger is Kasperi Kapanen.

Kasperi Kapanen, son of former NHLer Sami Kapanen, is an offensively gifted sniper who is currently ranked the best European prospect by Central Scouting. Kapanen boasts a quick and accurate shot, is a versatile skater, and possesses not only the awareness to identify scoring chances, but the puck-handling skills to exploit them as well. He has also demonstrated a highly competitive attitude that has been praised by many of his peers.

Let's be honest, the Finns are killing it this generation and Kaperi seems to be no different.

Nice to know I won't be in SportsNet hell all year. Although hopefully they'll be better with those personnel changes like Strombo.

Thank god, now TSN won't struggle to air an NHL playoff game just because nascar/midget playoffs are on.

Hahaha. They lose their biggest product by far, and then more than double their national reach. They are so fucked next year, and after their embarrassing performance these playoffs I can't say I feel bad for them. I guess they can air a live Raptors game on TSN1, then time shift the game on the other 4 channels? ;P

 

[Red_Man]

52 Sens games.

Not sure why they're bothering showing so many games of a non playoff team.

Yeah I'm not sure why the need three more channels considering they just lost the NHL. I guess now they can show 5 curling matches at a time

Spoiler

and I"ll watch.

But seriously you guys are lucky they did those rights before they realized they could simply make you pay $10 a month for your team specific specialty channel.

 

[Dastardly Jerks]

Because next year they're gonna be back. WITH BABBY AND CO IN TOW.

Caek bizz, is their 1 year rebuild done yet? Avalanche style, not Islanders or Leafs style.

 

[Cake Boss]

Dastords, I dunno mang, no one knows.

 

[Dastardly Jerks]

What hard hitting journalists have covered the Sens recent murmurings? Ottawa Sun doesn't count.

Sportsnet certainly does not struggle to fill its multiple networks with content, so I'm interested to see what TSN does moving forward especially without a big hockey package in the fall/winter. Big news in any case. I've been spoiled with my condo providing me a full HD tv package.

Could we borrow Bobby for some playoff games?

 

[MetatronM]

Chris Kreider has been taking slap shots and seems to be closer than expected to returning.

If ever there was a time to get an actual quality playoff performer back, now would be a good one.
