All-Purpose Hockey Thread II

I have heard from a guy I know at TSN that Domi was pushed on the hockey guys by some executive type that knows Domi. Sounds like typical Tie....

 

The one guy who's made the jump from player to credible journalist is Nick Kypreos.

 

Not sure what's tougher to believe here: Kypreos as a player or credible journalist.

He's no John Davidson that's for sure...

 

Well, he's a better journalist than player. I mean, the guy has scooped TSN regularly on trade deadline stuff. He's a little rough around the edges and given time, he'll get even better.

Still, nothing was better than a Kypreos/Watters pissing match on sportsnet.

 

Let's give Domi and Campbell the benefit of the doubt and hope they get better. Maybe they should have started out in Moose Jaw, but they have "name" recognition and there's a curiousity factor in which people turn in to see how they do. The early answer is: Not very good. But it's still early.
On the other hand, I like new CBC colour guy Drew Remenda, who they brought in from San Jose. He's solid and knows the game.

 

Haven't since this posted here yet. Colby Armstrong hit on Trevor Letowski...

 

Kings STILL can't solve the Red Wings.

 

Ol' Trevor will skate with his head up from now on, eh?

 

As Terrance and Phillip said in reference to their friend Ugly Bob, his face looks like somebody tried to put out a forest fire with a screwdriver.

 

I guess the Blackhawks' move to Colorado isn't working out, huh?

Well, two teams in Denver would explain why both are having attendance issues.

Can ESPN be even more of a joke?

 

Nice job by the Flyers tonight. They've held the Sabres to six ... in the second period.
