I told a Kings fan that they were eliminated from playoff contention. He didn't know who the Kings were.

I hope Kapanen plays more games with the Leafs. He is FAST: https://streamable.com/xmypl
Needs some finish though.

So the Leafs have 87 points. That's the most points they've had in a decade when they had 91 points in 06-07.

They're nice enough to leave one. You only need one.
Now I know why Ducks games have such low ratings
People in Orange County are too busy doing... other things

That parade is on my way to work. Orange County is quite conservative. On the other hand, majority of the votes went to Clinton this past election. Hasn't been blue in my lifetime.

Polak's been great lately...
Rielly is getting awesome chances to score but goddamn he's worse than Phaneuf! Can't hit the freaking net!
Look, it was cold in there.

You're just now learning that Orange County, the home of Nixon, is Republican?
It's actually too big now if you're sitting in the Club section, which I assume everybody does.
Good on Markov for becoming #2 in all-time Habs defenseman scoring. Sure, he's 300 points behind Robinson, but so what? It's crazy to think, but Markov is and has been dor his whole career probably one of the most underrated defenseman in the league. 572 points in 985 games, and he missed almost 3 years from 2010-2013 (I believe he played 22 games in this span) with back to back major knee injuries. And he's 38 and still has another few good years in him.
He's a hall of famer.

Montoya is Day to Day. I guess Fucale will have to stay a little longer.
Markov doesn't get his number retired either unless he wins a Cup. That's the golden standard in Montreal. Habs have retired 18 numbers (well, technically 15, since #5, #12, and #16 have been retired for 2 players each). And what do all 18 of these players have in common? All 18 won Stanley Cups in Montreal, and all 18 were inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame. Markov will be inducted into the HOF without a doubt, but his number won't be raised to the rafters unless the Habs win a Cup in the next 3 playoff runs.
The only player I see the Habs making an exception for, and that's only if he sticks around for his whole career, is Carey Price. And even then, I kinda hope they don't, as the Cup/HOF double requirement makes getting your jersey retired in Montreal hard as fuck and therefore elite and special as fuck.
Finally, the true #11 for the Habs is Kirk Muller.

The numbers are tainted though... The Bob Gainey GM years were so stupid, I still can't believe he retired his own number
Habs retired 10 numbers during Gainey's tenure.....and I believe they're all deserving (even though I do agree it was soooo dumb to retire 3 numbers a second time).
Like, 5 should have just been Geoffrion, 12 should have just been Cournoyer, and 16 should have just been Richard.

If "veteran free agents" mean over the hill guys looking for big money and not producing anymore, good, stay away.

Good lord.
And why is Chelios blaming Babcock when he hasn't coached there for two years? He's talking like he only just left yesterday and now everything will be ok:

It's nice when they run videos though. I'm usually outside when they run video though, beating up on haters.

So for the 1st time in my life, I joined a political party.
Fuck Kevin O'Leary. And this Kellie Leitch critter too.
Markov has been pretty good for a long time. And in the NHL, pretty good usually means a HOF nod.

Yes I do believe that a defenseman who retires with 1000+ games and 600+ points will be a hall of famer. Shocking stuff, I know. He Markov (572/985 - 0.58 ppg) has way more points than Wedden (457/1023 - 0.45 ppg) or Boumeester (390/1064 - 0.37 ppg) in fewer games played, so better luck next time, Cuck.

We've got to keep these beaches clean from Pikma and the like, thanks for doing your part.
Disgusting.
Lol never won anything, no Norris, no gold medal at Olympics and no Stanley Cup.
Kaberle is a Hall of famer too based on points too dude, oh shit wait Kaberle actually lifted the cup and won some hardware.
Get the fuck out of here with that shit, hens fans drinking that bullshit koolaid again.
Dat high standard!
Sure thing dawg, I'll be cheering for Brain Campbell and Keith Yandle to get in too.
