Let's do this Isles!

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

This is what I was leaning towards. I figured a face shield would fog up, requiring me to wipe it up every few minutes. But I'm a bit concerned about visibility with a cage. Probably minor issues on both

Cheaper visors/masks also warp the periphery vision which I hated, scratches are also an issue. Mind you I haven't been shopping for headgear in a while. Cages are great because it is nearly zero maintainace and you get great protection. Just make sure to try it on to get the curve of the cage that doesn't block your periphery.

Anders Lee not on the roster? Wasn't he doing pretty well at the end of last season?

 

[User 479360]

Nope. Just part of the cross check line.

It's really nice

This one is okay, but isn't nearly as nice.

 

[TUSR]

those are ugly af

 

[bonesmccoy]

Grabovski on the wing?

 

[User 479360]

Let's do this Isles!

I hope they'll win tonight. The Isles are an easy team to like.

Those would look better without the blue.

 

[User 479360]

Most definitely

 

[Acid08]

Yup.

 

[Kuro Madoushi]

Sometimes GM's are in love with their picks and give them chance after chance to succeed.

It was like that with McPhee when it comes to the centre of the ice and defense.

Dude offered Chara a contract but wouldn't match Boston's offer and instead signed Brian Pothier.

Could have traded for Pronger but wouldn't give up Alzner+Varlamov+1st

In love with their own picks. Just like McPhee was in love with Forsberg...

I HAD TO DO IT, FORZA!

 

[shadowkat]

The Leaf one is ugly.

 

[TheKaeptain]

The ducks one is nice too.

The sharks one would be better without the teal trim.

The one time he trades a highly valued prospect he trades him for Marty Fucking Erat.

I wonder how those defence pairings looked before Leddy and Boychuk.

 

[Cake Boss]

God the Clutterbuck for El Nino trade was dumb back then and it still is now.

I really like this Habs hoodie.

[A Serious Man]

I was going to ask what the Hurricanes lines were but then I remembered that I don't care.

 

[User 479360]

I dig the Ducks crosscheck. Flyers one is okay.

I don't hate any of them.

 

[lamaroo]

No thanks. Reminds me of those ugly black jerseys they have, they gave one to Will Smith smh.

 

[TheKaeptain]

The cross check t-shirts fit a lot better than most of the other Reebox shirts. I usually find their shirts to fit tight around the chest and shoulders. The Kopitar CC t-shirt I bought feels looser.

Grabovski on the wing? Not playing with Kulemin? What?

 

[TheKaeptain]

There's only one game today?

 

[Osorio]

Isles bottom six is pretty damn good.

 

[jello44]

At least the Coburn injury might not be as bad as originally thought.

Will be re-evaled Monday and he might suit up next Saturday.

 

[User 479360]

I wish I could relax and watch hockey, but I've got two reviews to work on (play/write).

 

[MetatronM]

There's only one game today?

Yup. And all 30 teams play tomorrow.

 

[TheKaeptain]

sweet gives me time to work on homework and not do shit tomorrow.


If I get my javascript homework and my visual art video done I am going to the game on Sunday.

 

[Calamari41]

Goldobin's first Finnish Elite League goal.

His lack of celebration is downright Canadian, God love 'em. Hoping this year in a European mens league gets him ready for next season just like what happened with Hertl.

I swear to god every time you guys talk about Goldobin I picture some general in Sauron's army.

I want this

I actually hate those for every team but LA. Must be because you guys already have pretty much that color scheme going on to begin with.

 

[Entropia]

Watching Sportscentre... why are they opening up with a bunch of interviews about Phaneuf playing the opposite side? Holy shit, if you're an NHL defense man there should be 0 'issues' with that. Fucking Toronto media :lol

I think the Ducks one works really well. It's one of the few where the colored trim adds to the look rather than takes it away.

Yeah its better than the rest but still not better than a lot of the standard gear.

I admit, they are just fishing for stories; HOWEVER, if you've looked at interviews around the league, a lot of players are more comfortable or play better on certain sides.

Lupul prefers playing on the left wing and you can't simply toss him on the right wing and expect the same results. Just like JVR can't be tossed into centre and be effective.

Playing on the left side where Phaneuf naturally shoots allows him to protect the puck along the boards and take passes (supposedly, in his case) crisper since he isn't receiving on his backhand and then switching over. It also allows him to look to the right side of the ice and more naturally see and pass on his strong side without worrying too much about what's on the boards. For me, I'd sure as fuck would prefer passing on the forehand rather than the backhand.

Garbage. All of it.

 

[Coldnoodle]

Was watching some of the Flyers-Capitals series from 2008.

Game 7 tied at two and he decides to pass in the slot.

 

[Kuro Madoushi]

Also should mention that I did call into Rogers and they gave me my code to get Game Centre.

Had to get routed around a bit, but it got resolved in a day and they were pretty friendly all things considered.

For all the shit Rogers gets (deservedly so), I haven't had a problem with their customer support thus far.

 

[Heretic]

Lol!


He just wasn't the same after the injury. Has that changed?

 

[Heretic]

Marvbae has spoken.

Grabovski on the wing? Not playing with Kulemin? What?

I know, it's weird. If they slump out the gate expect that to change.

 

[Coldnoodle]

Grabovski on the wing? Not playing with Kulemin? What?

They want Brock Nelson to be the team's second line centre and Grabovski ain't gonna play third line minutes.

 

[SmackCrackleNPop]

It's so weird that The Kaeptain likes some Ducks players and likes that cross check Jersey.

I dont like the jersey. I love our GIFs

I'm a fan of Hockey. Can't hate on someone like Getzlaf he's good. Only dude that can get fucked is Crosby... and sometimes Kane.

 

[T.M. MacReady]

They want Brock Nelson to be the team's second line centre and Grabovski ain't gonna play third line minutes.

Nelson can play the wing though, and our center depth is great with Nielsen as the 3rd. Odd choice. I would have gone

KO - JT - Strome
Kule - Grabo - Nelson
Conacher - Frans - Bailey
Clut - Ciz - Martin

We'll see how it goes I guess. I don't know if Capuano is the right coach for this team. God willing, these guys will show us something though.


Needless to say:

I AM EXCITE

 

[zroid]

OK Isles, show me yo moves

 

[Coldnoodle]

Go Semin go.

Halak has a Tugnutt mask.

 

[zroid]

Wait Carolina resigned Gleason? hahahaha....

So not only does the PS4 GCL app have a worse interface than the X1 version but it streams at a worse bitrate. #wut
