black-faced a habs fan's avatar, they were requesting a "habified" avatar for the next round.

This is why I take a step back when the Wings get eliminated and forget about hockey for a while and prevent myself from posting something stupid that will get me banned.

Typical Curtis Lazar story from practice today: after skate he carries a couple equipment bags to the bus, comes back for a couple more...a veteran EDM media guy quips "what, are you a rookie?". Lazar replies back "no, it's called 'a team'" and keeps going. #leadership

So he'll be the caddy for Ottawa when they miss/are eliminated in the playoffs since he is good at bag carrying. What a nice guy.

lol lucic is a poor loser

The stuff that has been said to me on the ice and various handshake lines over the years pales compared to this. "I'm gonna fucking kill you..." is pretty tame.

Lucic needs to grow up though and learn to lose with some class and dignity.

Handshake fights.... Those were the good old days.

I hope the conference finals and cup finals are all sweeps so we can get into the offseason properly ASAP.

A player started carrying bags to the bus, a media person asked him if he was a rookie, what this player said next will amaze you.

Fuck the Habs but congrats to Red and Solo since they deserve this and they're good people.

 

[Solo]

Kave <3

 

[ActStriker]

Lol
You're one of us now. Have a cold one and tell us how the Bruins change for next year.

Seidenberg will be healthy

 

[Solo]

Chara looks done to me. Over the hill, washed up, no longer a force.

However, Bruins have a wealth of good young d-men, so they'll be fine.

I know people have said that Marchand is the type of player you wouldn't mind on your team, but hate on others - I don't think thats true.

I would fucking hate it if this dude was on the Leafs, piece of shit.

Never saw that,I did see Pleks and him chatting. I guess that's what it was about.

Amazing how he waits for the ref to look away

Marchand is a masterful cunt

The poster I just bought is amazing.

Where can I buy this?

[Dubbedinenglish]

Thomas is a hack.Was there seriously no one else?

 

[Red_Man]

Nice that he's banned. He'd started posting a lot recently and it was weird navigating these threads with him on ignore. Made him even more apparent, though at least I didn't have to read his inanities.

Worst part about him posting more, is he started to do it after PMing me and called me out as just a troll, when I responded with how much more I add to discussion in these threads compared to him with his drive by bait posts, so I take full responsibility for this madness. I didn't realize Subban's powers extended this far.

Shit like this is why he deserves every call he gets, he's the biggest rat in the league. He deserves to get knocked out like Kane did to Cooke.

 

[zroid]

Matt Read has looked really good throughout the Worlds so far, and he's finally cashing in the points

 

[Silexx]

Chara looks done to me. Over the hill, washed up, no longer a force.

However, Bruins have a wealth of good young d-men, so they'll be fine.

REDDEN WAS THE RIGHT CHOICE!

Danes looking like they could've really used Eller

edit: This USA Latvia game is too much

Thomas is shit!

 

[zroid]

looool this game

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

Thomas is the worst.

 

[zroid]

I was hoping Gardiner would be the hero

He was looking very dangerous near the end there

 

[Coldnoodle]

Thomas :lol

Latvia beasting. Beating Finland and US in this tournament lol.

Dal Colle over Bennett????????
Hop we get a decent C at 8th... Draisaitl? Nylander? Who the hell is Fabbri?!?!

 

[Freyjadour]

Fabbri has really climbed up the rankings. I was hoping he might be available where we picked, but Schmaltz is our pick I think (afaik he's a C not RW).

 

[Samyy]

Just don't take Perlini and I'm happy.
Fabbri I'm wary on, hes been reallly really really good the past few months but it could just be a hot patch.

If we could somehow draft Draistl I would be really happy

 

[Freyjadour]

Also Ryan MacInnis would not be that highly valued if not for his last name.

 

[Acid08]

Milano or Ho-Sang plz

 

[Kuro Madoushi]

Might be another draft where a late pick might turn into a good defenseman. Only 4? In the top 30? And of those, I only recognize Fleury and Ekblad.

Weber and Subban were taken 2nd round. LOOOOOOL OUR SECOND ROUND PICKS!

 

[zroid]

Bergeron too ,_,

 

[Smiley90]

I hope we draft Nylander, purely because he's a Swede and can AFAIK also play wing.

 

[Razorskin]

Claude Julien in the off-season.

 

[Red_Man]

Claude Julien in the off-season.

 

[ZeroGravity]

Team USA has now lost to both of our goalie prospects lol

:lol :lol true

 

[Coldnoodle]

Fabbri plays a lot like Grabovski to me.

Dude has a motor on him.

 

[Kuro Madoushi]

Lol holy shit reddy. I'm glad I cracked up on the bus going home instead of in front of the entire company and CEO.

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

I hope we draft Nylander, purely because he's a Swede and can AFAIK also play wing.

Lot of centres available but I doubt any are potential 2C. A sniper would be good.

 

[Samyy]

Bergeron too ,_,

And Krecji I think

 

[yyzjohn]

Finally reading that Mirtle article, and it's a beast.



So apparently the point is Shanny and Noney think Carlyle is smart enough to adapt and improve. I hope they're right...

Finally got around to reading the Shanahan article. He mentions how the Wings were swept in the finals of 2005 and it was embarrassing yet they learned from it and turned around and won the Cup.

Fuck am I the only person who sees a problem with this analogy? He's talking about a Wings team THAT ALREADY GOT TO THE FINALS AND LOST. It's not exactly translatable to the current Leafs situation.

Fuck this team.

 

[Samyy]

Lot of centres available but I doubt any are potential 2C. A sniper would be good.

Nylander is a centre, outside of Reinhart/Bennet he probably has the most potential to play as a #1 centre if he realizes his insane potential.

Highest skilled player in the draft.

 

[Red_Man]

And Krecji I think

Plekanec was a 3rd round pick.

 

[Coldnoodle]

Stay away from Nylander.

He's ours.

 

[Acid08]

Pavelski was a 7th round pick.
