NHL February 2014 |OT| The A on Dustin Brown's jersey stands for Asshole
- Thread starter Quick
- Start date
Because every stop I make, I make a new friend. Can't stay for long, just turn around and I'm gone again...
We had a Littlest Hobo appreciation thread years and years back when OT was created. Like I said then, growing up in the middle of nowhere with 2 TV channels in the 70's meant that I literally believed that one day I would be walking around and meet London the dog and we would stop a robbery or save an old lady from a brush fire.

I can't remember the last time I had cash on me for anything other than road tolls.

American dollar bills are annoying as fuck to carry around whenever I go over there.

The NHL needs to fire everyone in their player safety department.

PSA: Jazzpunk is really great. Check it out.
I want to play this but my PC suuuuuuuuuuuuuucks.
Do it man, Pavs is raw as hell. He's going to take it to these fucking commies.
People just have to make sure not to make any edits to their posts after Tuesday in that case, even non-roster edits.
Have you thought about upping the amount of players involved, or adding goalies now that we're allowed choosing anyone, overlap included?
I wonder if there will be a lot of overlap with only 6 forwards and 3 defencemen. I'm fine with whatever amount.

I changed it. Didn't know they could overlap
I have an almost six year old laptop with Vista on it that's almost totally fried. It can't even run HL2.

It's not like our roster was that deep in the first place. Two best players gone (aside from goalies)... Filppula having injury in second last game.. fuck this luck. Also according the media Bergenheim is not coming to fill either one as it seems he got little offended that he didn't got chosen in the first place... Well I guess anything can still happen as it's tournament where it's always sudden death in the games that matter...
Edit. Long time lurker lol.
I think there would be overlap, no matter the roster size. There's going to be so many players with 4-5 points, I think limiting our roster size so that the you HAVE to pick the players that get 7+ points instead of 4-5 is the key to winning.
I'll update the OP in the thread with the team entries that I will input into the site, so that edits after Tuesday won't affect things.

Well yeah. It's not like we ever have anywhere near the best roster in olympics and yet we have gotten most medals since NHL players have participated. Our strongest weapons are always great teamplay and everyone giving 110% on the ice. Of course then sometimes like in semifinal in Vancouver when the other team has better material and plays also very well we have hard time (dat first period against US...never again). Still bitter about Turin argh. We were the best team! Gold was so close.....
Yeah, I think the small roster is alright after making up my team. I think Team Canada's depth helps with the rosters. You could load up with any of of their four lines and still do well depending on how the matchups work.
Anyone watch the opening ceremony today? I've been busy and didn't watch it but I want to know if it's worth checking out later.
Teams that have to depend on their system more then their players tend to be scarier. Look at how Russia got tossed around in Vancouver, even with all that star power they had too many guys playing their own game.
I thought it was pretty decent, not the best but worth watching. Spoiler, they don't touch on Stalin or the war at all, :lol

Well yeah. You never know what you get when you go against Russia lol. Most entertaining team to watch as the difference between good and bad day is so huge.

Bergenheim turned down the offer to use the break for rehab. 16 months and 4 abdominal surgeries, I think it's the right choice for him .
