Support NeoGAF

[Montresor]

You guys are proving my point.

What point are you proving, exactly? I love my team just like any other fan but I don't look at them with rose-coloured glasses.

Gotta love that "classy" quip. You're no better trying to paint all of Leafs-GAF with the same brush.

 

[RC]

Didn't like Sin City?

He had nothing to do with Sin City.

 

[Cake Boss]

First contact is to the head so while the size difference isn't his fault, the fact that he contacted head first and Skinner is out (probable concussion) will play a part in punishment.

lol there will be no punishment.

If that hit deserves a suspension then so does all of Kronwalls hits.

 

[Solo]

Didn't like Sin City?

?

Snyder wasn't involved in Sin City.

 

[Smiley90]

That was an amazing too many men call on the Blues :lol 6 players on the far-side half of the ice, looking from the bench. Not bad.

 

[Kave_Man]

Fuck.

This game just wasn't meant to be it seems.

 

[sazabirules]

All I said was you guys can't admit a dirty hit by your team when it happens.

 

[TUSR]

?

Snyder wasn't involved in Sin City.

who the fuck am I thinking of then?

Edit: Frank Miller, how did I fuck that up?

it wasn't dirty jesus fuck

your shitty ass center should learn how to skate

 

[Kuro Madoushi]

yeeeeeap!

4-0

 

[SuperSonic1305]

That about wraps it up for this game. Enjoy it assholes.

 

[Samyy]

Im so flaccid right now

 

[MetatronM]

Shit, Boyle's still out? That's no good. He was just starting to play like he's supposed to.

Guess we're going to have to call somebody back up after this one.


EDIT: Fuck, he's done for the night.

 

[AngmarsKing701]

That's the "Jessica Alba Stripper" movie right?

Right. The one where she plays a stripper who doesn't strip.

 

[MutFox]

who the fuck am I thinking of then?

Edit: Frank Miller, how did I fuck that up?

Wasn't it Robert Rodriguez?

 

[sefskillz]

who the fuck am I thinking of then?

Edit: Frank Miller, how did I fuck that up?

Robert Rodriguez actually directed it, yo

 

[Red_Man]

Has anyone checked Ovechkin's stall for deer antler spray yet? What a monster.

Right. The one where she plays a stripper who doesn't strip.

Close enough.

 

[TUSR]

Wasn't it Robert Rodriguez?

Yeah he was the director, Miller wrote it

 

[Dastardly Jerks]

who the fuck am I thinking of then?

Edit: Frank Miller, how did I fuck that up?

Are you thinking of Watchmen?

Yeah he was the director, Miller wrote it

AND was Director as well. And Quentin Tarantino had a Guest Director spot. 3 way Directors Sex Party.

 

[Quick]

I walk out for a bit, and come back to 4-0 Caps. Oh well.

 

[MetatronM]

I really love Brassard, man.

ZUCC!

 

[Montresor]

Wow at the title change. Why is that making me so angry.

Thankfully I'm not watching the game, sounds like it's pretty bad for the Leafs. I'm out driving a client (currently waiting on the client), so I'm parked and listening to the radio.

 

[sazabirules]

Yeah he was the director, Miller wrote it

Is he directing the 2nd one?

 

[TUSR]

Is he directing the 2nd one?

Im the last one you want to ask.

 

[Acid08]

Fuck yes at the thread title, laughed hard.

Sin City was great the first time I saw it and I liked it less each time I saw it after.

 

[Jachaos]

Hoping the Islanders make the playoffs. Happy to see Nabokov's got a whopping four assists too.

 

[Solo]

Is he directing the 2nd one?

Yes, Rodriguez and Miller (who did direct parts of the first, along with Tarantino) again.

 

[cube444]

Has anyone checked Ovechkin's stall for deer antler spray yet? What a monster.

He seems to own the Leafs. His career stats versus them must be insane.

 

[Magni]

What an ugly last minute to an ugly first period. Wake up Canucks.

 

[Kave_Man]

Wow at the title change. Why is that making me so angry.

Breathe and relax.

It's nothing to be angry about. Just shows the Leafs have for the first time in close to a decade become a team good enough that the salt has come full force on us.

 

[MetatronM]

I appreciate Asham's enthusiasm there, but man he got his ass kicked.

 

[Red_Man]

He seems to own the Leafs. His career stats versus them must be insane.

Anyone specific reason he's been back to his old self, or is it just the ebb and flow of the season?

 

[Freyjadour]

That was an amazing too many men call on the Blues :lol 6 players on the far-side half of the ice, looking from the bench. Not bad.

What's even better is we're usually worse with a man advantage.

 

[sazabirules]

Anyone specific reason he's been back to his old self, or is it just the ebb and flow of the season?

It took him awhile to get used to playing on the right and playing to Oates' system. He also has a lot of confidence since Oates actually trusts him.

 

[Stet]

25 goals in 30 games according to TSN.

 

[Solo]

Anyone specific reason he's been back to his old self, or is it just the ebb and flow of the season?

He's not being asked to play defense anymore.

Dale Hunter? More like Fail Cunter amirite?!

 

[MetatronM]

Dammit Richards. The net. Hit the net.

 

[Kave_Man]

He's not being asked to play defense anymore.

Dale Hunter? More like Fail Cunter amirite?!

Laughed harder at this then I should have.

 

[equippedwithtowel]

9mm with the snipe!!!!!!!

Its good to be back

 

[ShaneB]

I walk out for a bit, and come back to 4-0 Caps. Oh well.

Wooo Caps!

 

[cube444]

Anyone specific reason he's been back to his old self, or is it just the ebb and flow of the season?

:lol

What Solo said. You gotta play to his strengths and Oates moving him to RW allows for more touches and makes him a lot less predictable.

 

[RC]

Wooo Caps!

Good things happen when NHL-GAF is united.

 

[Cake Boss]

MEEEELOOOOOOO

 

[Red_Man]

It took him awhile to get used to playing on the right and playing to Oates' system. He also has a lot of confidence since Oates actually trusts him.

Makes sense, I remember early in the season while playing the Caps Mike Johnson made mention of how much of an effort Oates was making to gain Ovechkin's trust and such. Seems to be paying off.

From EviLore's post:

We've taken steps to address Off-Topic's problems, but we still have a long way to go.

Thread shitting is endemic, despite recent improvements on that front. Members are afraid to tell interesting personal stories for fear of being derided for any number of reasons. They're afraid to post something they've seen elsewhere to the tune of a hundred "go back to Reddit" replies. They're afraid to post anything that could be posted in an existing megathread due to hostility from that megathread's subcommunity.

What *is* safe to post? Stories about deranged murderers eating people, it seems.

It's time to move on from this entire dynamic. We'll take more steps to move megathreads to OT Community and police thread whining, but in general the atmosphere needs to lighten up and there need to be more opportunities for fun and interesting discussions, and for daily news topics that gets away from murder.

Or from another megathread's community, it seems. -looks at NHL-GAF-

Ovechkin said the other coaches didn't trust him enough to put him on the ice at the end of the game when leading and Oates does.

 

[Buba Big Guns]

Ottawa was really missing Michalek.

Caps need to win tonight which looks likely. Jets need to win, and Rangers need to lose. Come on!

edit: where is this Evilore post from? Sounds like MMA-GAF, you guys talk about being insular here, but MMA-GAF is even smaller!

 

[Kave_Man]

Way to go guys.

First NBA-GAF gets us all relegated to this community hellhole now you guys are the reason we're going to be proper fucked.
