NHL 2009/20020 Season - Drunken Trash talk Allowed
|
|
Ok, a bit early but Pre-season is under way.
Damn, they start when it is still almost 30c and end when it is almost 30c. I should move somewhere colder so it feels like hockey season is almost under way.
Well, at least where it gets colder sooner. We don't really get fall here in Kelowna. We're near Canada's only dry land desert (yes, we have a desert in Canada, eh!) so the temps will go from really f'ing hot to cold to hot to cold to winter and snowmobile season almost faster than you can put the boat and water toys away.

This is what happens when an unstoppable force meets a highly movable object.

I expect the Blues to have a decent season. With Erik Johnson and Kariya back from injury, we're basically adding two elite players to a roster that kicked ass in the second half.
Keep an eye on Backes, Oshie, and Peron. We might even make it to the second round of the playoffs.
OK, that was the level-headed assessment. Now for the trash talk...

Denny, I have lost all faith in you as a hockey fan.
Scooter, I think your projected #15 would have something to say about that.

The Wings are looking pretty good so far. Lost a couple of players, but have a few good looking young guys coming up.
Not even looking forward to the Avs this season. Been there, done that.
Chicago looks to have added a couple of good players. We'll see if they can manage to contain all of that potential.
Other than that, I haven't really watched what other teams have done in the off season.

And why is that?
ANyway.. I'm wondering what the hell is going on with Sundin. Is he staying for a reduced rate (then why is he not working his ass off and playing pre-season) or are they going to pick up another player.
And for the record, I think we need a new coach. I never really like Vigneault as coach.

I think Crawford needs a job...

Craaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawford?
While a nice enough guy I wasn't a fan of his browbeating coaching style either.
My favorite Canuck coach was Pat Quinn.

Quinn has a face that make you want to punch it.
However, he is a good hockey man...
