He hit Buttercup, not just any guy. That will lessen his suspension by at least three games...

Good thing it wasn't Gonchar that made the hit, otherwise Clutterbuck would probably be the one getting suspended...

That wasn't a questionable hit, that was a friggin braid dead move by a guy coming off a much talked about 9 game suspension. It was news worthy. Would it have been Ok if a Sharks fan started that thread? Are they off limits? Just curious.

I don't know how many times Hartnell has been suspended, I'll guess two, but he's been involved in a lot of knee on knee hits and questionable boarding calls. If I had my way Cooke wouldn't even be in the league anymore. He's dirt.

If a Pittsburgh fan wants to defend Cooke and then run around ripping on every dirty hit they see, yeah that's hypocritical. But they didn't sign Cooke, Pens management did. I don't agree with everything my team does, I really don't like Franzen and Zetterberg's 83 year contracts, but the fact that they exist doesn't preclude me from ripping on Kovalchuk or Hossa's deals.

I'm not going to argue your opinion, so i'm not going to waste your time, and its my opinion that Penguins fans shouldnt be pointing fingers. Under the same instance when the Flyers had 5 players suspended for dirty hits in 07 it was my opinion that Flyers fans should keep their mouth shut when it came to other players dishing out hits.

He had A thread A while back on nicknames and how he hated being called chief at work so everyone naturally started calling him chief

Jeff went on a big rant about how he hates it when people call him chief... of course, we all saw it for the sarcasm that it was and now we know he likes it when we call him chief.

He got pissed off some people at work kept calling him chief, so we never let him forget it.

I think that'll clear up any confusion

Sounds like something a Rangers fan would do.

We had a guy at work that got pissed every time we called him chief too...I wonder if he was a Rangers fan!

I bet after calling him chief so much he went nuts and became a Bruins fan...

Jeff's a Bruins fan...





...for now.

That's cool. You have your opinion, I have mine.

I would think that it would turn him into a Blackhawks fan.

I just think that's a bit extreme. If you didn't like your players doing it, you have the right to not like other players doing it. Like I said before, you're not paying their salaries, so there's no hypocrisy there.

I live in an area full of rangers fans as much as i would hate to anger them I can test this theory out

by the end of the week they'll all be Bruins fans

 

[Darkstone42]

Jeff needs to get in here and see how much we've been ragging on him. I'll bet that hybrid Boston and New York temper will be fun to watch. =P

Call me naive, but I don't see a lot of NHLers employing the use of steroids... now, a half wit knucklehead like Gillies....

NAIVE!!!!

Andrew Peters tested positive. So did Sean Hill.

From what I've heard, I'm pretty confident that Barnaby did it.

Ray Emery almost certainly took steroids. Avascular necrosis is a VERY common consequence of anabolic steroid use/abuse.

I personally think that a very small percentage of NHL players take steroids but at the fringes and among the goons, I think that percentage skyrockets. JMO.

 

[Winged_Wheel88]

Jeff doesn't always watch Football...



...but when he does, he roots for Kansas City.

I could say by going to games we as fans pay the players salaries but as A devils fan that would make me wonder who's paying kovalchuk

lol... right, I knew about Peters and Hill, Barnaby was a fucking nut case but he seemed more like a cocaine type of guy. Emery, yeah. But as far as widespread use like baseball? I doubt it. Not making excuses for the guys, but Peters had no skill, he didn't even know there was a puck until his third year in the league. If he wasn't strong enough to knock a guy out, he wasn't in the league. Hill I believe was fighting chronic groin problems, I'm guessing he realized he was older than dirt and needed a little something extra to rehabilitate. Barnaby would probably snort wood chips if you told him it gave him energy, that dude was nuts.

But as far as NHL regulars, guys who aren't worried about their jobs... it would really surprise me if even semi stars like Mike Fisher or Nick Kronwall would touch the shit with a ten foot pole.

But on that outer fringe? It wouldn't surprise me.

Hahaha, well I can't answer about Kovalchuk, but I'm giving my money to the ticket handlers, not to Matt Cooke. Who that money goes to after my purchase is none of my concern.

Besides, I don't go to games anyway.

I'm poor.

So let me get this straight... before the Pens signed Matt Cooke, I was allowed to discuss dirty hits. But now I'm not. But if the Pens traded Matt Cooke, I would be allowed to again.

What I'm allowed to discuss, on a message board, is determined by things I have absolutely zero control over.

Yeah... that makes a whole ton of sense.

I'm sorry, did Shero trade Fleury at the deadline? En français, s'il vous plaît.
