I hate to be that guy, but SHOOT THE FUCKING PUCK. No team wastes more time on the PP standing around with the puck than Chicago.

@MacAttack:

You should start Turco and give Thomas some rest, what a save, just saw the video.

Sharp or Kruger! No idea who actually scored. :lol

Edit: Looks like Sharp's shot didn't go all the way in.

I gotta say, that was a pretty nice stop by Doughty

 

[Marvie_3]

Kane with the EA Sports faceoff deke. :lol

Doughty > Emery > Crawford

Fuck.

 

[t0mp]

Edit: wait a second...this team isn't orange

 

[Marvie_3]

Andrew "The Line Killer" Brunette as worthless as ever.

Hey Phil, are the Leafs going to make a legitimate playoff push this year?

Jamal Mayers centering the first power play unit. :lol

This gif sums up Chicago's season perfectly.

Nostradamus over here

 

[apocalidiot]

Yeah buddy! Just jam it in, I'll take it

 

[Revenant]

THE HAWKS WITH NET PRESENCE WHAT IS THIS

Mike Richards bitching and moaning... SHOCK

 

[Seda]

Ill take it

 

[Marvie_3]

Kaner!

Hoss is a fuckin beast.

 

[SuperSonic1305]

Today I learned that the Leafs drafted Tlusty instead of Giroux.

 

[Doctor West]

That second Hawks goal was complete shit. Hand pass and then no whistle as Quick was lying on top of it. Such fucking bullshit.

 

[Smiley90]

Today I learned that the Leafs drafted Tlusty instead of Giroux.

20 other teams drafted someone else before Giroux, so that doesn't mean much... If you take away all the "good" picks, you still have at least 9 other teams that made a worse pick, from looking at who was selected...

 

[Marvie_3]

'Hawks are finally starting to hit lately. Only took them 60+ games to figure out how to do it.

 

[Marvie_3]

HOLY SHIT! DUNCAN KEITH SHOT THE PUCK AND IT WENT ON NET INSTEAD OF INTO A DEFENDER'S SHINS OR 8 FEET WIDE!!

 

[apocalidiot]

Staldick strikes again

 

[Kave_Man]

Beat me to it.

I hate that stupid in hindsight bullshit. "We could have taken so and so instead of the scrub we selected"

 

[apocalidiot]

Damn that was close.

 

[Marvie_3]

This doesn't apply to NHL-GAF though, does it? Sounds like there just won't be any more sticky-topics, but since NHL already is one it can stay that way? Or am I misinterpreting this?

 

[Kave_Man]

From what the other threads have been speculating they're basically thinking of unstickying all the sports threads and moving them to communities.

 

[apocalidiot]

This is some NHL '12 shit

 

[Marvie_3]

Fuck you, Richards, you little bitch.

Makes sense I guess.

 

[Doctor West]

That game never should have gone to OT. At least the Kings were able to finally win a shootout.

 

[bonesmccoy]

Beat me to it.

It is a bit of a fun game to play though. For example, in 2007 there were 128 picks before Jamie Benn, and 193 before Carl Gunnarson!

 

[apocalidiot]

I hope they talk about extending OT at the next GM meeting. Shootouts are so fucking lame

3 vs 3 OT is all I ask for.

Same. Or instead of shoot outs, games are decided by a goalie fight

One of the few bright spots on the Leafs this season. Either JFJ's scouts were amazing judges of talent or they got really lucky. Outside of those who were picked in the first round, only two players drafted in 2007 have played more NHL games than Carl Gunnarsson.

http://video.nhl.com/videocenter/console?catid=35&id=163950

I missed that save live (it was a beauty) but I did see this goal. He gave Dupuis the entire side of the net and then flopped. Tough save to make with Dupuis flying in all alone but it didn't look good.

I agree the Bruins are going to need to give Thomas some rest and Turco might be the answer. I'd also like to see Khudobin get some starts when he gets healthy in case Rask isn't back for the playoffs.

I never said anything about Thomas,

I assumed you posted the stat you quoted since there was no linkback:

Since Tim Thomas skipped the White House visit the Bruins are 9-11-1, and his save percentage — which was .933 at the time — is .899.

ha

coupled with this a few posts before:

I am enjoying this.

And thats why I singled you out, if you were quoting someone else and I didn't realize it, then my bad. It does look like Ottawa and Boston have a good chance to meet in round one, see you in April. Ott/Bos on Apr. 5 could be a round one sneak preview and also determine home ice.

This is some how Mason Raymond's fault.

+1

3 on 3 would be better than shootouts even if it isn't a fair determination of who the better team is. I have to admit shootouts are a lot more fun when you have a goalie who is good at them and some talented forwards.

Or how about giving a regular time win 3 Points and if we get a tie the teams play a 5 minute overtime. If someone score they get 2 points. If no one scores they walk away with 1 point each. Simple.

Because "a tie is like kissing your sister".
