Shaking Crosby's jaw?
I like to think I know the game well enough to get by on the basic levels, but then I think about all the depth I miss out on and realize maybe I don't know things all that well
Economy-wise

There couldn't have been a more embarrassing way to drop out of the playoffs than last night's game. Good luck to the Rangers. Brassard is a great player.
Embarrassing.
Well.......

We won't see you in the playoffs ever again!!
Since you guys will never win another Stanley Cup!!
I don't live or work in Detroit, so everything is fine on my end. My work is West of Detroit in the nicer smaller cities that surround that flaming pile of mess called a city.
I thought you meant Howard leaving practice early..

Nope. They at least put up a fight at some point in the game.

All I saw was Toronto blew it. Didn't catch any of it. No reason to jab at Toronto anyways. In a better off position in the future than us.

Well for all the years that Washington were criticized for not having a goalie, I think you guys have a gem in Holtby.
At least you guys still have that Forsberg kid
But Washington were division champs!!!!!!!! Southeast!!!!!!!!

That's not until after Sochi.
Meaning he probably won't come over until the start of the season after the upcoming one.

As long as GMGM is the guy building the roster we are screwed. No matter how well Ovi is playing.
This is true, he's had an unbelievably long leash, somethings got to give at some point soon.

I'd say we'd trade you Homer for him... but no.

Everyone should back the Sharks. They haven't tasted success before.

How old is Vokoun and why has a good goalie like him been a backup lately?

Because Fleury is just that good.

John Tortorella today on Ovie's saltines:
On Ovechkin’s comments about refereeing, (Tortorella laughing) “I’m not gonna get into a back and forth with Alex. One of the best lessons that we learned, especially for the young guys, is that you can’t get into the minutiae of it all, the complaining about this and that. If you pick away at it and are always complaining you forget what you are supposed to be doing. I saw McDonagh get run over and almost break his neck early in the game and there was no call, but Mac got stitched up, got up and played. A very important part of the playoffs is not to complain, not to go to the supervisors to just play the damn game. Take a hit to make a play and keep your focus. I thought it was a turning point in game six with all the complaining and we stayed within ourselves."
And moving on...
On the Bruins, “We are two similar teams. It will be along the boards. It will be about battles. They win a hell of a game last night. They are deep, they are balanced. Both teams play a similar game. I feel good about it. All the teams that are playing now are good teams. It’s not who you are playing but how you feel about the team. I feel really good. We don’t get too involved in big adjustments, there are small things, but we aren’t changing. We wanna go straight ahead and they wanna go straight ahead. The neutral zone will be important.”

Haha Bieksa should take this so heart.

Cannot wait for his bitching after he loses next round about the refereeing.
I'm positive that these comments won't seem even more ironic in the near future.
:lol exactly, he'd be complaining to the moon and back about the non call on McDonagh had they lost the game.

I'd get in on that, but I never moved past Civ IV.

I'd be shocked if we could get online at the same time frequently enough. I can't be on Steam at night with any sort of reliability. PBEM would be too tedious, I guess?
You can be my vassal state and pay me tribute for protection.
Sign me up. But yeah, my issue with Civ V multiplayer is that the games take so damn long, and I'm not to adhere so much to game schedules, lol. It would be fun though
