one thing that's improved this year is active sticks, i love how the Flames steal the puck.

TSN had the wrong game go 2.5 hours on their double header.

Oh.

I think that's all he'll ever be.

Doesn't have the wheels, jam or motivation to be an effective three zone player.

Him and Hudler for example, are worlds apart in terms of their commitment to all three zones.

I'm sure part of that is a learning curve/language barrier/blood clot/a hundred different reasons, but he hasn't exactly been wawaweeewa in terms of his offense. Pretty ho-hum, frankly.

This team is such a slutty tease. I'll be honest, I was secretly hoping for a loss tonight in the hopes that it might finally force management/ownership to pull their heads out of their arses and make the necessary changes this franchise needs...and then out of the blue they pull off a convincing win against a superior team and I start to believe in them again. This team is so Jeckyl & Hyde, it's infuriating. Feaster probably thinks we'll win the Cup after tonight.

Combining +\- now TSN??? They need to stick to telling us who our best players are and what team they would like them to play for. That is what I want to hear more of.

5-2 lead, less then 10 minutes left in the third. Not like it was a 3-3 triple OT game.

You don't really contribute to the thread and aren't really a part of any conversations. We all have different opinions and because we don't agree with eachother doesn't mean either of us are wrong. Calm down and enjoy the thread.
I never said suck it Poe... Are you a hater???

Actually no. To have a signature move you actually have to have good enough hands to be picked for the shoot out in Div 3 beer league..... which I do not.

Kent Nilsson is the pioneer of it IIRC, but Forsberg perfected it.

NSFW!


And the others who think like me don't really consider ourselves "haters", we just want what we think is best for the team.
