In a League with No Injuries (Friendly Debate)

[Eddie_Shack]

Yes, but if he remains healthy in 06 and goes on a nice run with the Sens he would resign.

lol, Dammit! I hope that doesn't mean we're stuck with Manny Freaking Legace again!

 

[DChero]

I just want to say-in a league with no injuries, Orr sets records that would never get broken. Carry on

If we're talking about offensive d-men records, then sure.
Speaking of records, Lemieux may have erased Gretzky's name off of a few (in the 90's/2000's).

in a league with no injuries, tim tebow would win every championship in every sport from the dawn of time, including eating the lions in the roman coliseum.

Are you telling me that Jagr is gonna win the Cup this year?

He just might.

 

[DChero]

He just might.

If he finishes out the season. He's been know to have injuries in his no-no zone.

His ass?:wacko:

Dunno though. With all that hair, his ass might be a "Have at it" zone...

He only grew it long to cover up the tramp stamp.

Sens would have had one, Philly would have had one or two and Lindros would have won a few scoring titles. At least the battle with Jagr would have been a bit more exciting.

Cam Neeley would probably have a cup too, and could have probably had a 70+ goal season or two under his belt.

The only recent Finals series I could see ending differently is the Edmonton/Carolina series if Rollie the Goalie would have been healthy. I honestly think Edmonton would have won The Cup that year.

Canucks would have looked better in the Finals last year with a healthy team, but, no guarantee of anything there. Those two teams, if healthy, would still be a coinflip and a seven-game series.

 

[Automattic]

If we can count having Jiri Fischer and Vladdy, then Detroit would have 2-3 more, imo.

Hell, the Canes might never have even made it to the Finals if Buffalo was healthy that year. Then who knows how that series would have turned out.

Good point, Vladdy was a beast in his prime and the Wings could have possibly taken down Dallas in '99 and '00 to take those two Cups. Oh, can you imagine if Homer had been the one to put his foot in the crease instead of Hull?

Fischer was just coming into his own, I don't think he was ever going to win a Norris but he was strong, mean as hell, and a great skater with offensive upside.

Yeah, it really would have been "No Goal"...

I hope Big E can be that 3rd pairing gem that I thought Jiri was gonna be. Ironically, I used to hate Fischer at first too.

The Sharks would still have 0 cups.

 

[Automattic]

The Sharks would still have 0 cups.

In less than 5 years, imo. You'll see...

The truth has no statute of limitations.

Except when it comes to the wife. At that point amnesia kicks in.
