Ongoing NHL thread - Part III

I'm a little disappointed - I purchased tickets to the Senators/Ducks matinee hoping to see Mark Borowiecki and now he may not play now if the DOPS has its way.

I hear you. Superstars getting suspended only hurts the fans

You'll just have to bask in the glory that is Jared Boll.

The family and I drove up from SD today for the game. Was my first time at the Honda Center....it's a pretty damn nice venue. We were on about the blue line, up high a bit, but the sightlines were great. Will definitely do it again.


and was kinda cool seeing the Angels stadium basically across the street too. look forward to taking in a game or two there this coming summer as well.

I'd love to get to a baseball game 1 day, really prefer baseball to hockey. Going away for the holidays and hoping to get to a hockey game.

At least he skated in warm ups.

Kid is a goal scoring machine. Pounces on that rebound, even in his own zone and against his own netminder.

It's a bold strategy, Cotton. Let's see if it pays off for 'em.

The bizarre thing about that is that he wasn't even on a weird angle where a misfire would bounce it off the boards in an effective way. He literally just looks like he's sniping his own goalie. Incredible!

Maybe they should enlist the help of Miracle Max?

Antii Raanta the Rangers' backup is making headlines lately while King Henrik is on the bench. Could be interesting as if he keeps this up Vegas may go for him (Raanta) as their #1 goalie in next year's expansion draft.

I was pretty surprised when he re-signed there. Thought he could get a starting job somewhere.

I'm pretty sure he didn't mean to score there based on how he reacted afterward, but it's hard to say just what he was trying to accomplish.

I know you all were concerned when the Penguins had four goals, and none of them had been scored by Crosby. Fear not, he scored the fifth.

Based on his one interview prior to the draft, he might have been too baked to not realize it wasn't practice.

You could see him waiting for it to drop below the crossbar, just to make sure it's a good goal.

Also, you're not penalized for high sticking if its on the follow-through of a legal shot.... I would have decapitated the goalie to add injury to insult. Sid is just too nice, I guess.

The reaction afterward may have been the realisation that he was trying to score on his own net.

Regardless, the kid is gonna be haunted by this clip for the rest of his career. This shit's gonna be on SC top ten's and goof lists for eternity. That kinda sucks.

I've honestly seen like 4 links in my feed today alone about Florida's "unconventional" front office and their financial and military backgrounds and their educations and it's going to be so fucking funny when this team winds up on the market for half of what these idiots paid for them and they move their shit to Seattle.

That clip is just asking for an Oilers "this guy scored" picture.

Even though he's a stupid dingleberry, Steve Dangle had Doug Cifu on his podcast and it was a really awesome, blunt and transparent outlook on what the Panthers are doing. I thought the Panthers were idiots with the move, but I respect that Cifu went on a relatively popular podcast and just put it all out there.
