Ongoing NHL thread - Part III

[tducey]

Some talk about Lucic possibly signing with Edmonton. That could be a very interesting signing for the Oilers.

Would the Oil send Taylor Hall to the Isles for Travis Hamonic if they sign Lucic? Tavares and Hall together could be a dynamite combo and the Isles are going to lose Okposo in free agency.

I can't imagine the Isles parting with Hamonic with the way things went down last year. Unless things have changed....as in the health of the loved one back home.

That being said, if they do part with Hamonic for Hall, it'll be a lot of fun to watch JT and Hall together.

If Wang wants to prove his worth as minority owner, he should buck up and buy the Hamonic family a brownstone in Brooklyn.

I feel bad for whatever fan base sees their team plunk down years and millions for Kyle Okposo. Then again, as an Islanders and Mets fan, I can see him becoming our Daniel Murphy. But, then again, Murphy actually performed well in post-season play...

They are no Stephen Baldwin. That's for sure.

In case anyone was concerned otherwise, Sean Avery: still an asshole.

There are few people on earth that I would be fine with getting hit by a bus. Avery is among them.

So he just stands in front of them and annoys and taunts them. Soo... his Snapchat account is basically the same as his NHL career.



Never change, Avery. Never change.

I remember back at the swamp there were a few posters that would always come to Avery's defense with the classic "Oh you'd love him if he were on your team" line. Umm, no, he's one of the few players who would make me cheer for another team. Gutless punk.

 

[elocomotive]

Also found out from that article that Sean Avery got married...

...to a woman.

Who saw that coming? Not me.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

It won't last - Then his former wife will hook up with someone new and Avery can roll out his "sloppy seconds" line again, that is if anyone really cares.

So instead of a stick, he was waving a bottle in a brown bag in front of them?

He was actually running up to car windows and blocking the homeless from getting donations.

He claims it's for roadway safety, but I have my doubts.

It sounds like he's dangerously close to literally "playing in traffic". Anyone got any ideas as to how we can just nudge him into playing a full soccer game on the Autobahn?

His former teammate notes that Avery keeps finding “people to f - - k over,” but he’s also clever, even with his March 2012 NHL retirement announcement on Bravo’s “Watch What Happens Live,” when he declared that he “threw [his] skates in the Hudson.”

“He had to get ahead of the story. If he could have managed his work ethic and kept a lid on his antics, he still would have been playing. It’s not retirement if nobody wants to sign you to a contract. That’s called not having a job.

“Just look at his wedding list. None of his so-called best friends for the last 15 years were even at his wedding,” notes the former teammate.

“He was kicked off of every team he’s ever been on: Detroit, Los Angeles, the Rangers and then Dallas. He couldn’t sustain a relationship with a team.”

Adds the former friend: “Now he has imposed that bulldog toxic mentality in his relationship with Hilary.”

Curious about which former teammate is the source.

Ya know, he kinda sounds like a sociopath...charming, volatile, rage filled. Doesn't care about others, etc.

 

[Comeds]

He's messed up.

Shame he didn't score 100 points and get a Hart trophy.
