All-purpose hockey thread...

Re: New NHL vs. the old NHL

Mr. Miler
Wow. That stings.

I bet that author hopes another ship explodes in Halifax harbour.

BTW, what's this nonsense in the review about "investigative journalism"?

Sid the Kid's favourite meal? His favourite teen actress?

 

Re: New NHL vs. the old NHL

if any ships explode, i hope they dont destroy the bars.

 

Re: New NHL vs. the old NHL

Sirs, Madames,

The author has suggested to me that he plans on using the HDN review in the afterword for the paperback edition--that and Steve Simmons's suggestion that Phil Kessel will be a better NHLer. Sidney fatigue.

Bonus points if anyone knows who Stephen Clare is. (Supposedly HDN account manager, which sort of makes sense.) And a cash reward if someone has his home address.

YHS, etc

 

Re: New NHL vs. the old NHL

If I was an 18-year-old millionaire -- hell, if I was a millionaire at any age -- my favourite teen actress would be my favourite meal. ;D

 

Re: New NHL vs. the old NHL

Phil Kessel is the new JR: an American hot dog.

Sid the Kid is in Toronto tonight. It's something else. Apparently the whole Penguins PR department flew down.

It's 1-0 for the Pens after one.

The Baby Jesus had one of those "how did he see that guy?" behind the back assists.

 

Re: New NHL vs. the old NHL

As an aside, does anyone care what Simmons thinks?

God, is that guy annoying or what?

Between him and Strachan they may be the two most incompetent hockey columnists around

 

Re: New NHL vs. the old NHL

I assume Kessel scored a pretty goal at the WJC, and stopped to pose afterwards?

 

Re: New NHL vs. the old NHL

Well, that was bizarre.

Pens tied it up 2-2 at about 15:00 of the third.

In OT, Wellwood's shot was headed about 10 feet wide, hit McCabe in the chest and went in.

Leafs won.

Thibault was brilliant for the Pens.

Crosby, other than his great assist, was more or less invisible.

Leafs have a six game winning streak but are headed out west this week to face Calgary, Edmonton, Vancouver, Phoenix.

Now, this'll be a test.

 

Re: New NHL vs. the old NHL

tie domi had nine more seconds of ice time than sidney crosby -- which makes both coaches insane.

 

Re: New NHL vs. the old NHL

Are you serious? That is freaking nuts.

 

Re: New NHL vs. the old NHL

That was probably the most bizarre part of your statement

 

Re: New NHL vs. the old NHL

I'm beginning to wonder if Shane Endicott has some pictures of Michel Therrien with a goat or something. Whatever this idiot is doing to get so much damn playing time is beyond me. All he does is take up space and take bad penalties.

And by the way. Shane Endicott's minutes last night-17:37
Sidney Crosby-17:08.
