I need to check this thread more frequently when there's a Leafs/Nucks/Habs game on. Also Pokemon.

Come back to like 10 pages of shit and wanna reply to things 5 pages back, but feel bad =/

Anyway, I watched the Jackets game last night and it was pretty much the most fun I've had watching hockey this season. I know they're not a powerhouse but they're a .500 team that can score goals and they really just seem to work hard and care. It was FUN hockey. They were all over the fucking place. Are they normally like that? Was great to see all my former boys get points up too. I never wanted any of them gone.

That was the worst game I have seen a dman play the game in a long time, Philips was on another level of suckiness last night, and of course our dumbass coach awards his shittyness by playing him and playing him, even on the last seconds when down a goal.

Neil takes 50 dumbass penalties a game, gets suckered into taking one by a rookie, lets give him the most ice time in the 3rd and put him on the ice in the last seconds when we need some offence.

Good Job Good Effort you fuckwad coach.

Cant wait for Kernal to come in and tell me why everything is alright and that a Jack Adams coach knows what hes doing and blah blah blah.
 
I don't under stand how a team that is mostly improved from last year (minus buttfuck Ranger) can give half the effort that they used to. They must still have nightmares about game 7.

It's the face-offs. 60-70% of the time, the Leafs are starting play without control of the puck. I don't know what Carlyle/Nonis can to do address this, considering they hedged their bets on the Plug.

Its this combined with our inability to efficiently clear our own zone. We cough up the puck so much just trying to get it close to our blue line. I guess our D just can't handle the pressure, not sure.

Eh, I get where he's coming from. Cardinals are and always will be #1 in STL, so it gets pretty annoying.

Football is indeed super boring.

It plays second fiddle to Hockey without a doubt, but it's far and away more entertaining than Basketball or Baseball.

At least you live in a sports city.

All Tulsa has is the Shock and Sunflower's apartment building.

Cam Talbot gets the start tonight against the Red Wings. Hank is taking the night off again to make sure he's ready for the home opener against the Habs on Monday.

Mats Zuccarello back in the lineup, Mashinter out.


Also, AV hasn't even asked about Nash's condition for several days. The only reason that would be the case is if he knows it's not even worth asking at this point. Nash may be out a REALLY long time.

Going to the Riders vs. Stamps CFL game tonight (I know, :lol CFL, whatever, I love it). Games are always fun. Also, fun fact: The Riders sell the 3rd most merchandise in Canada, only behind the Habs and Leafs.

edit: NBA is the worst.

Riders nation is indeed pretty insane.

It is all we got. Funny, Getzlaf probably makes 100x more than his brother Chris who plays for the Riders.

Oh I know, CFL is huge out for west for sure. I'd be into it more if I could accept the massive field :(

There is a player on the Argos with the same name as my brother. I find that funny.

I always think that the small field is weird in the NFL, also the smaller ball. Too bad a city as huge as TO couldn't support the Argos better.

Heh, fair enough on your enjoyment of the bigger field and ball. I'm glad it's at least got some differences to stand apart. And Toronto would drop the Argos at the drop of a hat if there was ANY rumblings of an NFL team coming here, but I definitely think they should be playing at somewhere other than the Rogers Centre.

Yeah, place is way to big.

Go Stamps! Sure I'll see lots of rider jerseys around, especially at the malls, they all come to do their shopping while taking in some civilization on their trip to Alberta. ;)

Best atmosphere at Stamps vs Riders games here. Except for the really obnoxious drunk Rider fans. :/

I actually really like Saskatoon, Regina not so much and I am kidding. ;)

Its really sad at the pathetic support in TO. The western teams are the bread and butter of the CFL, Although with Ottawa coming back with a new stadium and Hamilton building a new stadium it may help.
