NHL March 2013 |OT| Black History Forever

Dryden, Fuhr, Billy Smith?

Mike Vernon?

These are a bit of stretch, but still..

I dont think Fuhr is a stretch at all. There should definitely be some old time goalies, from the no mask days on a list of best goalies. BJ's list reads like a list of recent goalies.

Edit: Dammit Kave!

@TSNBobMcKenzie BTW, if COL didn't match and CGY got ROR, CGY would've been obligated to put him on waivers. No provision for paying him not to play.

OK, turns out Feaster just avoided pulling the dumbest GM move ever.

Galchenyuk only plays about 10-12 minutes a game and missed all of last season, too. The fact that he's third in rookie scoring as essentially a 17 year old is amazing. Conacher and Huberdeau will of course have a much better shot at the Calder, but I feel like long term Gally will be the best of them.

Huberdeau also scored 6 goals in February. Galchenyuk has 3 goals all season.

JH: 13 points
AG: 12 points

Goals, assists, it's all gravy.

Its over for Alex Kovalev and the Panthers. Team wants him to retired, but he still wants to be paid.

Glenn Hall, Tony Esposito

This has no effect on rookie of the month considerations.

Of course not, nor should it. Was just bringing it up to show it's pretty great that he's even in the conversation.

Like I said, I see one of Huberdeau, Conacher or even Tarasenko winning the Calder, but I think Galchenyuk probably has the highest ceiling of them all.

Just turned it 2 weeks ago. He started the season at 18. 18 - 1 missed year = 17 development-wise. Hence "essentially".

Get it?

Oh shit you could do that?

So Zibenejad missed 3 months this year plus 6 months last year in development, basically 9 months of hockey which is an NHL season, which means hes actually an 18 year old playing in the league. HOLY SHIT WOW.

Sure, whatever you want to do.

Gally missed a critical year of junior development and then jumped straight to the NHL after half of this junior season. That's a year lost, homie.

Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
Top 3 goalies to ever play in the NHL

Roy
Brodeur
Hasek


Anyone else in that conversation?

You do know there was hockey before 1985, right?

How about Terry Sawchuk? Glenn Hall, who played 501 CONSECUTIVE GAMES? Jacques Plante?

Do years not spent in the north american leagues count half too? What about people born as minorities, they've probably had to spend at least 1.5 years of effort for every normal year?

SOMEONE CALCULATE OFFICIAL "Red Age" FOR EVERYONE!


Edit: Camilla Luddington appreciation? I'd be down.

Of course, comments like this aren't helping your case:

I'd still drag my stick through broken glass to raid her tomb.

But I sure as hell enjoyed your contribution to the thread.

Never underestimate the ability of Gaf to get pissy and outrage over nothing.

Mark Stone is going to play tonight in Bingo and could be called up to play tomorrow against Philly. Fuck yeah!

To be fair, "drag my dick through broken glass" is more of a meme than a unique statement by now. Not that the mods would know or care, since... You know, humour and all. Soc would know how that feels.

That soon ?

Still awesome if true, you mean our roster could potentially be better over the next few days ?

When is Michalek coming back ? These injuries are beyond ridiculous.

The solution to all our problems: push-ups.

LOL. Didn't the Lightning do a strip shootout some time ago. If you miss in the shootout you make a piece of equipment off. I think St. Louis finally scored with almost nothing on(including no skates).

LOL Flames!

Also, unconfirmed reports that the Avs haven't filed the paperwork for matching the offer sheet yet....

PS: Also a fail for the Avs management. If they had done their research, they could've warned other teams not to offer sheet because of this.

So, this pic was posted under "We have an announcement to make this morning", I take it this means Sunday's game will be the retro jersey game? Awesome, if so.
