How can you hate Gallagher?

I should have said "lines" instead of "lineup". I do like 5-6 of our players, but those lines are putrid.

Super 16: Canada could miss Stanley Cup Playoffs

The rapid decline of the Montreal Canadiens has put Canada in jeopardy of being shut out of the Stanley Cup Playoffs for the first time since the NHL-WHA merger in 1979 gave the NHL six Canadian teams.

Of the seven Canadian teams, only the Vancouver Canucks are in a playoff spot entering Friday, and they just moved into it Thursday with a 4-2 win against the Boston Bruins. The Canucks have 16 regulation/overtime wins, which makes them prone to losing in a potential tiebreaker scenario.

It all means that it's entirely possible all seven Canadian teams will miss the playoffs for the first time since 1970, when it was just the Canadiens and Toronto Maple Leafs.

Woof. First the looney and now this. Tough year for our Leaved brethren.

Woof. First the looney and now this. Tough year for our Leaved brethren.

it's a good thing though, since the looney is in the shitter, teams lose a LOT of money by not making the playoffs, so they'll have to push extra hard to make sure they're in next year

theoretically

Don't blame the lolilers and loleafs

Both of us were suppose to be shitty this year. lol

That can backfire though, because it can create a situation where the teams are content with just getting a playoff spot, but won't make any moves that would push them to contender status because that would cost more.

Ian deserves plenty of credit for actually trying to bring respectability to Ottawa sports media. His 'Advance Chats' show on Sundays is pretty good too.

Agreed, listen to it every Sunday. More informative than anything on our shitty radio stations.

Lonnie is in recovery mode right now. Gained 3 cents in last 2 days.

Oh, and Canucks will make playoffs.

Good, because Lonnie owes me $5. That guy. Don't trust him. Certainly don't sell a car to him.

Oh, and Canucks will make playoffs.

k. Someone tell the Vancouver riot squad to get geared up.

That's pretty much already the case with most canadian teams so

I'm sure I can blame this on Harper somehow

Verizon Center crew no longer setting up for #CapsDucks. No word on the state of tonight's game.

[Red_Man]

Therrien breaks up Patches-AGally-Garbage winger after 3 games because they don't score, keeps AGally-DD-Weise together after 4 games of being the worst line of the season because he's fucking insane. A long term injury to DD would be the best possible outcome for this team right now.

 

[zroid]

Nylander is taking part in non-contact practice now

SOON

(hopefully Connor Brown will be back soon too)

WAHHH THERE'S A LITTLE BIT OF SNOW WAAAAHHH WE DON'T WANNA PLAY

disgusting, move the caps to Quebec city

You can do that too if you want.

 

[Calamari41]

Capitals (more like Crapitals though, right guys?) running scared from the Pacific Powerhouse Anaheim Ducks.

 

[lamaroo]

So they're trying to piss them off even more?

Unless I'm wrong, I don't think that second tweet is from the Cap's official account.

So is the team grounded or going straight to Detroit right now?

 

[Line_HTX]

I hope the Kings and Ducks finish 1 and 2 respectively.

 

[Smiley90]

Houston drivers are already atrocious as it is on a perfectly normal day. They see one snowflake and they freak out, haha

 

[Unhandled Exception]

It's no better here these days with all of these fucking assholes moving here. People don't know how to drive in snow. Accidents everywhere. Grocery stores packed.

 

[Foggy]

Torts injured his back(not hip) and won't travel with team to Boston. Could go on his own, but considering the snowstorm, I doubt it.

Also Bob is back on IR. Indefinite. Korps and Forsberg are the two goaltenders again.

Though to be fair, they don't have to deal with snow often.

Still, LOL

I also like this rendition:

:lol

To be fair, most people in Minnesota cant figure out how to drive in snow despite living there their entire life.

 

[Gunstar Ikari]

Just gonna leave this here.

It snows like one day a year down here, we don't have the shit we need to deal with it.

 

[MultiJhonny]

Houston drivers are already atrocious as it is on a perfectly normal day. They see one snowflake and they freak out, haha

Yup. Truth right here.

But we don't get any snow here so it's not a big deal.


Edit: Also I just got back from Jinya. It was pretty good. not the greatest thing in the world but solid. This is aimed at the pho/ramen conversation we all had last night

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

Just gonna leave this here.

It's 3:30 and I am stuck in crippling traffic and we haven't seen a single damn flake. It's brutal.

How dare the back away from THE Jonathan "Jonathan Drouin" Drouin

 

[Pikma]

It has never snowed in San Diego so it's impossible for me to understand what you unfortunate losers have to go through.

 

[iLLmAtlc]

How awesome would it be if Yzerman plays hard ball and Drouin stays home for the rest of this year.
