Ongoing NHL thread - Part III

[Bloody Brian Burke]

One thing I really miss about the TSN Wednesday Night broadcasts is that it was almost always a double-header. I don't think SN has shown two games on Wednesday save the opening week. Why didn't us eastern folks get to watch Van-AZ last night?

Oh well, gave me a chance to watch the Raptors lose to the fucking Timberwolves.

I think Dion read that piece and '210' was born.

Bahahahhahaha

Dear canucks

Please sit the kids

TANKOUVER

You've been saying Tankouver for a while, and yet it only just now hit me why you have a tank in your avatar. I had been trying to figure out exactly what you were trying to convey since I first saw it, and it finally clicked.

I'm sure that name will catch on with the fans who fill 3/4's of the bowl every game (if last night was any indication).

Canucks are only two points out of a wildcard spot, the Central Division (aside from Chicago, Dallas, and St. Loo) have come back to the pack.

And I get shit because I want the Leafs, who are awful and have been awful forever, to get a half-decent draft spot lol

Well, if I can be so bold, you're going to draw a good amount of grief just for being a Leafs fan

the thing is, i, as a canucks fan, dont ask to tank every year

Looks like the 2017 draft will find a gear that no other draft can reach...

You, as a Canuck fan, saw your team in the playoffs last year and in 6 of the past 7 years.

I, as a Leaf fan, have seen my team in the playoffs once since George W. Bush's first term and have watched my team try to avoid a rebuild as if going through one would turn everybody in the front office into sea urchins.

Just the slightest difference in situations, wouldn't you agree?

Wasn't 2017 supposed to be the year the Leafs got everything on account of their centennial? WC's in STL, draft's in Chicago, ASG is in LA...

Not that I would ever attend any of those events (I don't mind the WC, but no WC will ever compare to the Big House), but what gives lol

I thought that as well - Hey, at least you guys have a spanky new logo.

doesnt make the leafs more deserving of the top pick imho lol

Who said anything about the top pick? You know the Oilers still exist, right?

Im praying to Oprah that her son McJesus conjures up some sort of miracle

Matthews, like McJesus should have done, needs to pull a Lindros when EDM wins the lottery this year.

Eh. Oilers, Jackets, Jets...

It's all grey to me. The Leafs will in all likelihood finish in the bottom 3 and wind up picking 4th because this is the first season the top 3 picks are up for grabs via lottery and we're talking about the Leafs. I'm pinning my hopes on Tkachuk's kid and praying he can re-produce his London form with Marner on the big club.
