T'Official HNIC unintentional comedy thread

jesus, somebody save Friedman from these idiots.

He's talking about how the twins maybe they talk to Linden to see if they want to look elsewhere for a better chance to win for the next couple of years - saying they have playing really hard shift in shift out under difficult circumstances (through injuries, lost season, revolving linemates, etc)

Kypreos chimes in " derp derp, for $7mill per year I would hope they play hard"
which then careens off into a discussion of whether expensive athletes play hard.

The whole second intermission was awful.

Announced last night that the draft lottery won't take place until April 30th - I'm hoping they're taking the extra time to build an Oilers-proof lottery machine.

Can't change the way it works now sadly but maybe rig it to screw the oil would be great

I suppose this was done so Sportsnet can remind Canadians that there is hockey happening in late April.

On a related note, I saw the press release from the CRA where they said they were anticipating earlier-filed tax returns this April, and have enhanced their support systems to accommodate the early crush of filings.

wow. Lumby wins the Kraft Hockeyville thing.
It is as close to a one horse town as I can recall seeing
(a bit east of Vernon)







although, the arena could definitely use some upgrades

I thought i misheard awe shucks ronnie so i went back and still wasnt sure and then he says he thinks klingberg was top rookie a second time

 

[jstewismybastardson]

Theyre such pros

I don't think you want a goalie named Golf-if-son.

Who'd Don pick, Nick Ritchie?

The Connor of McDavid.

Minor Correction. He thought mcjesus should win it but larkin was a "lock" to win it

He would fit perfectly on the Leafs.

Wish I saw this thread 2 hours ago. That was one epic disaster of a CC. Maclean said Klingberg was a rookie so many times I had to look it up to see if I was mistaken.

To be fair to Grapes, I think he did say Panera was likely going to win it and I kinda got the feeling he was being sarcastic calling Larkin a lock (maybe he criticized the praise YOUNG CROSBY was getting earlier in the year at some point?). He definitely thought McD should win it though.

 

[jstewismybastardson]

Sounds like cherry and aweshucks ronnie have come to the conclusion that the pens shouldnt put malkin or fleury back in the lineup when healthy

And people are shocked that the 2 nba games got better tv ratings in canada than the playoff games last night
