I'm gonna need some of that scotch if the Oilers win another draft lottery...

I'm gonna need plastic explosives.

(I kid. Please don't blacklist me, feds)

fify

I think you meant the Big Rig himself, Jonathan Ericcson...

 

[esls79]

So Radko Gudas, who probably should be suspended right meow but isn't just got a match penalty.

Good job dept of player safety

 

[jstewismybastardson]

Finally a suspension

 

[Nasty_Magician]

Flyers doing nothing to dispel the notion that they're a trash bag team tonight. Cheapshots all over the place, let's see how many guys are actually healthy for the Devils after this one.

I was shaking my head when I saw on another board that a Flames fan would like to have Gudas on the Flames.

Finally a suspension

That hit isn't awful, Farnham sold it a bit as he's wont to, but so far from play, guy engaged, the lengthy history...this is why you suspend guys and don't pretend their lack of suspensions mean something. "No history, all good!" You can't take that into account when the only reason the history isn't lengthy is because you SAID THE SAME THING LAST TIME.

Bad slash, worse dive...

Even Derek Roy is saying "turn it down a notch, dude"

 

[elocomotive]

Sweet game winner by Kuzy with two minutes left...

The kids got their points and the Oilers lose again.

Sunrise is not small. Sunrise is old. In fact pretty much anywhere south of Daytona (along the coast) there are a lot of people.

And, apparently, none of them like hockey.




And now for something completely different. Kopi misses Richards. Tries to drag him back to Kings bench.

Maybe, but they are still wildly out of place being anywhere near Miami. Not that that will change at any point in the next decade but...
