I just report his posts that repeat.

I'm never sure what DOOM is actually trying to do or accomplish when he posts here, but one thing is for sure: he disrupts the board.

Anyone that continuously does this should probably be banned. Just saying.

Every game is key. You can't expect Hiller to play every single one. We need the solid play of both goaltenders if we have any chance of making the playoffs.

In fairness to Brodie, Bergeron has schooled a lot of opposition players over the course of his career.

I prefer Hiller to Ramo. I would've probably started Hiller, because I thougt Ramo was OK but not great against Vancouver. And yes, you often start a starter after a backup win.

That said, I was not surprised at Ramo being started again, that's Hartley's pattern, and as it turns out, he's not made any mistakes and thrown one huge save out there. The score thus far is not on him. Hung out to dry on both goals (in two different ways).

Hmmm, I'm not sure that's a suspension worthy hit. I think he missed a hipcheck.

EDT: ooh, not sure I want those guys agreeing with me.

He hit him in the knee. It was way too low. Definitely a bad hit.

Thing is that the Flames don't have a clear starter/backup, you go with the guy that wins.

Surprise surprise, Edmonton's Yakupovs and Landers go on a hot streak in February when all the pressure is off.

When will that org ever learn.

I am terrified for the Eastern road trip. They are going to have to be Herculean to stay in a playoff position at this point. Minnesota has gone 8-0-2 in the last 10 and does not look like slowing down. We could easily find ourselves in 10th or 11th by the end of next week, if we don't figure out how to deal with the Eastern teams.

Yeah, but accidentally IMO. Suspensions are typically for attempts to injure. thats why they always point out the time and options in the video review.

I just hope they play themselves out of the McDavid sweepstakes.

Feels like our typical game against a good Eastern team where their elite player (Rask, Tavares, Crosby, etc.) takes over.

I think if you look at the games played, the stats and Hartley's starts, it's pretty clear who he thinks is the starter and who is the backup.

If we can't score 3 or 4 goals to win a game, that is a bigger issue.

So what are you going to do about it? Adjust your style and continue to post here or continue as is and get perma-banned. Possibly as early as tonight.

Up to you. It really is.
