Ongoing NHL thread - Part III

Remember when they were teammates? Good times.

Amazing what happens when you part with dead wood, eh 43?

No penalty called on this hit by Ehlers...

Blake Comeau would be the worst player in the NHL if not for Jared Boll.

<<AHEM>>

Some shocking news...

An electrical current is pumping into T.J. Oshie when he is working out, when he is warming up before games, when he is recovering after them and when he is sleeping, roughly 12 hours a day in all.

The Washington Capitals forward is one of roughly 75 NHL players who make the Accelerated Recovery Performance (ARP) machine part of their daily routine. Electrodes are attached to him as often as shoes are.

In large part because of player testimonials — proponents include Chicago’s Jonathan Toews and Duncan Keith and Minnesota’s Zach Parise — the ARP has become a more common sight in NHL locker rooms, though teams don’t endorse the machine. It is approved by the Food and Drug Administration, but a neurologist and a physical therapist interviewed for this story said that while the ARP doesn’t do any harm, the evidence for it being a benefit is empirical and anecdotal.

‘Shock value’: Electrical current machine helps T.J. Oshie stay in top shape

Noticed that Wiercioch got the only goal against the Flames last night. It was his only point in the last 10 games.

It was also the first time in the last 10 that he wasn't either a scratch, or a minus player.

What were you saying earlier @jstewismybastardson about me being wrong regarding the giraffe on skates?

@KennyBanyeah , I don't know what's going on with that Flames PP over the last 6 weeks, but it's clipping along at a 35% clip. Did Dave Cameron find some magic?

Even a blind squirrel finds an acorn from time to time.

But I think it has more to do with some of the Flames' talent just waking up. Kudos to Cameron on not getting fired yet. I took the under on that one.

I kid, I kid.

The guy just sucks though. He was a project for Ottawa and he's gotten significantly worse the last two years. He'll be a good fit in the German league next year.

still think if he finds the right defensive oriented team he can be sheltered and learn something lol

 

[jstewismybastardson]

i heard DCMP used the "back check ... fore check ... pay cheque" line from Letterkenny last night on Baes goal

Id say to his face that hes an embarrassment but he might hit me with a pool cue

All of a sudden, this is a pretty important back-to-back series between the Canucks and Flames this weekend.

/Millsy upping that trade value with a shutout last night, he wan't even surly in the post-game interview with Murph last night.

maybe a strong performance and a 2 game sweep v Flames will get Canucks Kylington for Miltsy :

better solution than Elliott

/alternatively ... Ill take a new 2 game losing streak for the canucks

Now now, Elliott is on a five game winning streak (still looks kinda shaky back there at times, but the team is winning).

/Bruins put Khudobin on waivrs, Canucks should claim him and trade Millsy to Tampa for Cirelli
//Can't go wrong with those Italians.
