Series Thread: Stanley Cup Finals: Washington Capitals vs. Las Vegas Golden Knights

[elocomotive]

I love Wilson for this reason alone. Who was the last real villain the Caps had? Chris Simon?

When we also last made the Stanley Cup Finals. To my earlier point, NHL teaching us bad lessons.

You could be right. Wilson seems to be the odds-on favorite, but could be Reaves to be used as the example.

Wilson when he gets busted. hahaha

And then we're all like...

Are you saying Carlson dove?

Or rolling your eyes at how dumb that quote from Kevin Weekes is?

Weekes.



And Rupper while we're at it. Both were pushing the "pushing off/Carlson tried to draw a penalty" crap. they also both said the Wilson hit was totally fine. They were wrong on both counts.

Geesh. I don't get the NHL network.

I just wish NBC could clone Keith Jones so he'd have someone intelligent to chat with in the studio.

The NHL Network is hockey's version of Fox News. Toeing the company line to a fault.

I counted five different people use the exact phrase "three wins away" at different points when talking about the kuh-niggits.

The only useful thing they do besides show games is the TSN 1090 guys for an hour every day. And even then, it's usually Doug MacLean.

Haha. Yikes.

I've looked at their on-air talent page before. They clearly had the gang all come in to get their official network picture at some point with that grey background. Tell me if you can find the one that wasn't taken in their studios...

Could not agree more. Eddie O is the closest they have.

Have fun!

I've had so much fun in that crowd in playoff games against the Pens. Can't imagine a final.

He is the same asshole who screwed NBC’s Olympic coverage so fuck him.

 

[elocomotive]

Excited for tonight’s game! Strap in at about 915 when all the pregame hype is finally done.

He is the same asshole who screwed NBC’s Olympic coverage so fuck him.

Roughly 60% of questions to Bettman start off with “wait a sec, aren’t you the asshole that...”. And that’s just at home.

 

[esls79]

How many burner twitter accounts do you think Bettman has? I'd say at least 3

Jesus... enough...
