Ongoing NHL Thread - Part Brock and Roll Four Lines

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Leafs are playing Knies in this tournament for some insane reason.

I have no reason to continue watching this regardless with the Leafs down 2-0 but the arena is broken and the players have left the ice so..

Maybe they should switch to 3 on 3 small area games at the other end.

I am in an online training and most of today has been review for me. This game getting shitcanned is hurting me.

Thinking about firing up the xbox to play video games while this dude yammers on.

So Biosteel is getting bankruptcy protection? Does everything this league touches or associates with turn to shit?

/at least one if their major corporate sponsors is a third rate credit card company that isn’t going anywhere

//should have went with Brawndo instead

This clip single-handedly explains PJ's copious terrible takes on HNIC.

I think Habs Bunny was the better goalie, but Leafs Bunny has the better look...

I like the Habs one on both fronts. Both masks are great, IMO, but I like the Habs one better. And I was a Leafs fan until 1994.

Good for the kid for seeking help and kudos to the NHL for having the help available when needed. It doesn't have to mean substance abuse, which I guess everyone just sort of assumes.

They helped Alexandre Texier a bunch when several members of his family died suddenly.

Those pictures don’t represent the actual divisions though. I think???

Adams (agree, a slight edge)
Norris
Patrick, then a BIG drop to
Smythe

I looked on hockeydb to refresh my memory. The names Adams, Norris etc were not used after 92-93, and there was a slight realignment starting in 93-94. The uni groups in the pics are correct for 93-94, but technically the names of the divisions are not.

He also played with Morris Lukowich (not sure about Lucien DeBlois).

We've discussed this previously and I like both rule changes - Just play 3-on-3 until somebody scores and take away icing when killing a penalty (If you can't ice the puck at even strength, you shouldn't be allowed to ice the puck when shorthanded).

A real captain would challenge his insane goalie to a fight first day of practice to keep him in line.

@esls79 will get this one is the best hint I can give...

Well, I didnt go far enough in the Way-Back Machine.

Kind of surprised, I dont really think of him as that prolific. Je m'excuse.
