Natasha has slowly been getting better.

But I concur on Kate Beirness.
 
The most important storyline for the Winter classic is will Claude Giroux score enough points to prevent Daniel from also passing him tomorrow.
 
Got bored, so I decided to make a quick update to the OP image.

I like them both, with Kate getting the edge. They both mesh pretty well with the other Sportscentre people, especially Jay and Dan.

Natasha seems to know what she's talking about, but I figured it's more of how she delivers her lines or how she sounds like that seems off.
 
Man, I'm at work today ... I can't even watch the winter classic in HD ... Tis' a crime.

Btw Happy New Year NHL-Gaf

Didn't Dupuis and Asham get hurt in the Devils game?
Click to expand...

Yeah, I heard Asham will be out 4-6 weeks with a broken foot. No word on Dupers. Jeffrey, Park, and Bortuzzo are still injured, in addition to Letang and Crosby. If Park and Dupers aren't back by Friday, I don't even want to look at our bottom six.

And new yorkers still couldn't care less about hockey. Too busy pinning their hopes to a shitty basketball team and an NFL team that'll get bounced second round of playoffs

To be fair, the Rangers haven't exactly given them much reason to get excited for a while. NYC will rally around the Rangers if they don't blow it.

GO FLYERS! Lundqvist will fold in the cold! His shins will explode like those trees in cold weather!

You're mostly right, but it's not like the other sports teams have been too exciting either. Hockey's just on the back burner for most people. I think unless the rangers make it all the way to the ecf people won't care.

Staal looks like he's going to be playing by the way. Woo

The problem for me is that I work the night shift, so I never get to watch the games on TV. Hockey is the type of sport where you pretty much have to be watching the game to get any enjoyment out of it. At least with baseball and football you can watch a box score and see the balls and strikes and men on base or field position. Even if I had the time to watch the games all the hockey teams in NY are played on the MSG channels. The HD versions of those channels were Cablevision exclusives up until a couple weeks ago. I really want to follow the NY hockey scene, but they definitely don't make it easy.

Habs are going to pay Gorges almost 4 million a season? Hrm. Is this a good deal, Habs fans?

Interesting read on Puck Daddy about the signing:
http://ca.sports.yahoo.com/nhl/blog...adiens-sign?urn=nhl-wp21323#remaining-content

Kevin Epp, Josh Gorges agent: "Habs would not have had to pay that much if something had been done in the summer".

Another timely move by Master GM Gauthier.
Click to expand...

He had already signed one seriously injured D last summer. Criticism would have been even worse. I also can't see Gorges making less than 3.5.

We just signed the league-leading shot blocker long term, so yeah, that's a great signing.

How does OLN still exist as a separate channel? I thought it was gone when the channel became Versus.
Click to expand...

I wasn't aware it still existed.

Re-branding the network again as the NBC Sports Network is still not going to do much. Bettman still fucked up and we're still on some lousy cable network that nobody gives a fuck about.

I just looked it up and it is a separate channel. It is a Canadian channel called OLN. I think it was an offshoot of the American one it just never changed the name.

Leaf fans: have any of you noticed that no one on the Leafs fights or blocks shots anymore?

So are you for or against Colton Orr and Jay Rosehill in the lineup?

Dupuis on waivers... yup, that'll fix things. Hey, how's Zigomanis doing? Still with the Marlies? Give Wilson another extension.

Dupuis waived...

If I recall correctly, didn't a brawl in practice break out with PK Subban and another teammate earlier this season? Or was that last year, can't remember.

It's not the first time the two of them have altercations, they're the two biggest competitors emotionally and physically on the team, and shits obviously frustrating to them, I'm glad to see this kind of stuff it shows they care. They're professionals they'll get through it.
