2008/09 NHL Thread

Well at least the Flames aren't given a world of trouble by the Blues.

 

That's one of the very few games that the Sharks have lost a game at home.
Edit: That's only the SECOND game.

 

GOAL OF THE SEASON

Richard Zednik. More of a video game move than a real life hockey move.

Unreal.

 

Yeah, that's a pretty fantastic goal.

 

By the guy who almost died on the ice last year.

 

TSN reporting Rangers may take Avery back.

Reports are coming from Larry Brooks who apparently is pretty close with Avery

Have they shared?

 

Larry Brooks as sloppy seconds is something I don't want to think about.

 

That Zednick play is too good to be wasted on a Panthers game.

 

I agree with your sentiment, but it's questionable whether he would have been able to pull it off against a better team.

If the defenceman could have broken up the play by sliding, that's fine, but defencemen are really supposed to take the man whenever possible. That's what that defenceman should have done with Zednik.

 

Except who says that against a better team another defenceman wouldn't have done the same thing?

The play is, well, as the old cliche goes, what it is--a great move that only a handful of players could pull off
