Check out the caption Gooch1034 put in IPW's caption this thread. It's hilarious.

Just turned off the Hawks-Wings game, turned on the Flyers-Hawks.

GO FLYERS GO! Flyers SCOOOORE!

And how the hell did that goal happen? What's SNES doing poking around like that? Give someone a cross check to the chest and clear that fucking crease out, if there was ever a time for a penalty that was it.

I have alcohol here......

There is always whiskey in my house....


I may be outta bread- and eating ramen noodles, but damn't I'll have crown....


And alcohol sales are banned until noon on Sundays... From 2am to noon anyway... kinda silly

Here in Mass we can buy from noon til 6pm. Better than not at all I guess.

Yup, you know Pronger would have cleaned house down at the other end of the ice...

If Jody Shelly is a "solid two way forward", then Colton Orr is a grinding playmaker.

I would have liked to see that on the other end with Pronger on the ice. Minimum of four cross checks delivered...

They would still be picking teeth out of the dashers.

That's one thing that's insanely frustrating for me to watch, at any level of hockey, for any team. Guys like Thornton and Bouwmeester that have the tools to get it done, but seem to get a little timid during crunch time are hard for me to watch. It's like a Corvette with a six cylinder, or soft core ****.

Pronger is still a buffoon, but when he figured out that he can't go around cross checking, slashing, and punching ALL the time, that he had to be sneaky about it or do it when it HAD to be done... that's when he went from a very very good defenseman to a great one.

It's not just about violence or penalties, it's just that little edge that guys like Crosby and Yzerman have/had to their game. That instinct when it really comes down to it even if they are clean and nice 99% if the time, if they really really have to they will hack and whack and do the dirty things necessary to get the job done.
