Every time one of you guys say "Messier", my urge to kill goes through the fucking roof.

I guess you can say....he makes things Messier.

Who pays for the damage?

I know that one, fans.

 

[Wendel Clark]

Guess I'll be devil's advocate and say I always found Sundin terribly overrated. Sure he's got great stats, but just being surrounded by mediocre players, and with little success, he never felt like any sort of MVP player that carried the team to elite status.

Laughable. What player won the Stanley Cup alone? I wonder how Sundin would be viewed if Quebec traded Forsberg instead of him. Nobody discounts other stars for playing on stacked teams (Sakic, Forsberg, Yzerman, etc.), but they do it to Sundin who was on average teams. He made everyone he played with better.

Bobby Holik played against Sundin his whole life: http://holikonhockey.com/bobby-blog/honoring-mats-sundin/

I'm glad we traded you for Sundin

This is great.

 

[G17]

Really happy that Sundin is in the HHOF.. can't believe some people on other sites are actually saying he doesn't deserve to be in.

Approaching 337 million...insane.

Frankie Corrado's paired with Dougie Hamilton on the top pairing for the Subways Super Series tonight.

Dat 5th round pick.

 

[yankeehater]

Who pays for the damage? Are you shitting me?

Wow so the players really do want to get paid for a full season? Cant wait to see Mike and Bruce spin this into the owners being totally unreasonable.

 

[Smiley90]

Hahahahaha no.

We probably won't understand though, since we're not as elevated as Something Awful.

 

[KernelPanic]

Well the owners locked them out, they were willing to strike .... er play

Idiots could have started negotiating earlier.

 

[Dastardly Jerks]

So with the HHOF inductions today, who is your favourite player out of the bunch?

I'm a bit bias as Adam Oates was one of my favourite players growing up, so if I had to choose one, he gets my vote. Big influence on how I played hockey, and just admired his ability to be a hell of a playmaker and to seemingly be able to pass the puck to anyone on the ice to set up so many goals.

Adam Oates. I'm a bit biased as well because of the 03 SCF. He was fantastic.

Corrado looks like such a steal at this point in his development. Still a long way to go, though.

Bure, both because I'm biased and because he did things at top speed that most guys couldn't do at half speed. That's what made him so damn impressive...Not his speed alone, but his control at his ridiculous speed.

Listen you uncultured swine. Everyone knows the players are 100000% in the right.

 

[Sanjuro]

Oates is still one of my favorite Bruins. Anyone who tells Jeremy Jacobs to go fuck himself is a legend.

 

[Socreges]

Highlights of Bure's first NHL game

No goals, but it's just cool to watch and imagine what it must've been like to see him skate for the first time. You had to immediately know he was one of a kind.

I actually remember when I was a kid that I was rarely able to watch the games (many weren't televised, if I was even allowed/home/awake to watch them), so I'd always check the newspaper the next morning and just look to see how many times Bure's name would appear on the score sheet. That's probably when I first went from hockey fan to hockey geek.

Pavel Bure AINEC, his skill and speed were off the charts even to this day.

Dat full-speed heel kick.

 

[Cake Boss]

DAT HIT ON YAKUPOV.

I could see the Lucic comparison with Wilson.

 

[Dastardly Jerks]

Bure unlocked this achievement 5 minutes after being drafted:

 

[Acid08]

Don't have a problem with any of those HHOF inductees. Some real ass dudes.

*sigh* one day I hope Thornton can win a Cup and there will be no questions whether he should be in the Hall of Fame one day. Jumbo ;_;

UFA in 2014. Could still happen.

 

[Dastardly Jerks]

UFA in 2014. Could still happen.

Him, Getzlaf and Perry will get together and join the Wild so they can Miami Heat this bitch up.

And then I'll fucking take a loaded rifle to my brain.

 

[Acid08]

whatever

I wouldn't even care if it was with another team....even the Canucks I love him as a player but, yes, even more as a member of the Sharks.

That's okay.

WEIRD TWITTER.

 

[Dastardly Jerks]

Hahah, Mats rules.

Yes, that's Bettman he's staring daggers at.

[Revenant]

A deal will get done this month...I have foreseen it in a prophecy.

 

[Coldnoodle]

Picture of Burnaby Joe on the TSN main page.

Somebody fucked up the lighting :lol

 

[Dastardly Jerks]

Doing blackface at a HHOF induction? Classless.

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

Can't wait for the Stars to land MacKinnon in the Lockout Draft.

 

[Pochacco]

Doing blackface at a HHOF induction? Classless.

:lol

 

[Quick]

Holy shit, it's Trevor Kidd on the HHOF game on TSN. His pads = blast from the fucking past.

 

[Dastardly Jerks]

Wait, what? Pascal Leclaire announces retirement.

When did that happen?

 

[Red_Man]

And no fucks where given, 8th overall :lol :lol poor Columbus

 

[KernelPanic]

Wait, what? Pascal Leclaire announces retirement.

When did that happen?

Apparently it was today.

He was giving Rick DiPietro competition at one point in games missed due to injury.

 

[Quick]

Kind of feel bad for the guy, he's probably better off now.

I remember when he got injured just by standing still. Puck flew and smacked him in the face, ended up with a broken jaw, I think.

 

[Dastardly Jerks]

HOLY SHIT YOU GUYS

[Dastardly Jerks]

Off the record.... Kyle Quincey of the Red Wings is confirmed as tour leader and captain.. shhhhh

Well, that's a good start.

Sorry guys, I'm heaps excited about this. You're gonna hear a lot about it from me.

 

[Smiley90]

It's okay, it's not like us, the Something Awful Rep and Fehr have anything else important to talk about.

 

[Dastardly Jerks]

I did that once. Ultimately wasn't comfortable with the idea of having less than 4 weeks of annual leave each year.

I'LL PAY $150 TO SEE KYLE QUINCEY INSTEAD

 

[Red_Man]

Better then Based Huberdeau, have at it

Corrado scored the game winner for Team OHL.
