Equally Obnoxious Hockey Trash Talk Thread, eh?

[MeatyPortion]

Worked for Kurt Warner. ****, there I go, talkin' football again...

 

[MeatyPortion]

Oh yeah: the Penguins suck.

 

[chapa]

GO BLUES!!! We may not take it this year, but our team is finally coming together! We may have had a chance if half of our star players didn't get injured after the first 5 games! Either way, I love hockey, and can't wait until playoffs!!

 

[Revvy]

Wings, Wings, Wings...

Just remember those three words come spring.

 

[Revvy]

Chris Osgood, one of only 9 goalies to rack up 400 career wins.

Nuff said.

 

[MeatyPortion]

I guess I would pick the Wings to win the cup this year, if they didn't keep getting injured. I mean, Michael Keaton doesn't even play for them anymore.

 

[arturo7]

Wasgood will not lead you to the Cup.

 

[Revvy]

Wasgood will not lead you to the Cup.

No, he won't, Howard will.

But Ozzie still had done more than most of your goalies could only dream of doing....

 

[MeatyPortion]

Howard needs better than a 2.61 for the year.

 

[Homercidal]

Howard needs better than a 2.61 for the year.

It's not a very impressive stat, for sure. At least not compared to Boston's goalie. But then again, with that stat the Wings are still top of the league... Howard's had some bad games, but he's stood on his head quite often too.

 

[Homercidal]

Oh, I just checked the standings and DEVILS SUCK!! LOL! Dang, how can ANY team be that sucky??

 

[rjwhite41]

Not if they meet the Sharks early in the semi-finals again.

Sharks = Red Wings' Kryptonite


:cross:


Whoops. http://www.usatoday.com/sports/hockey/nhl/2010-12-27-3999425504_x.htm

Also Datsyuk and Modano are out with injuries.

Modano hasn't done anything all season anyway, so I'm not too worried about him. Losing Datsyuk for a month is huge and Cleary has been a monster this season, so that's a big loss too. Better now than in April.

I'm becoming more of a hockey fan. Been going to the local CHL games. Wish NHL games were more easily followed on basic cable. I get to goto the Coyotes/Sabres game next week in Phx, whose gonna win?

That's awesome.

I'd pick the Coyotes for that one; Buffalo has not looked good this season.

That's what I wanted to hear :rockin:

I might be at that game as well, I have to see if mama got tickets to that game through her work. might just have to meet up after the game for a few beers!

 

[arturo7]

Conlkin is in net tonight, trying to avenge his earlier shellacking in Chicago.

Ya gotta love the coach who gives this to the backup in a critical divisional game.

Hopefully, it won't backfire.

 

[KayaBrew]

NFL? You must enjoy inane babble and commercials.

Don't forget dog fighting, concussions, names like "Ocho Cinco" and long stints in prison.

 

[arturo7]

Plenty of, too many, concussions in hockey.

 

[MeatyPortion]

I wonder which sport has more roids?

 

[DirtyPolock]

Best sports headline ever:

"Penguins summon Satan"

Must have worked, they won the Cup that year.

I don't remember reading this during their run, this is HILARIOUS!

Oh yeah: the Penguins suck.

It sounds like someone is just jealous that you don't have one of the best players on your team. Sidney Crosby is awesome. Oh yeah we also have a great russian player in Malkin as well. I guess that any old team can make it to the stanley cup finals two years in a row.....i know they only won the second one, but the main players are fairly young and it takes experience to win it all. If I hadn't read the thread form the beginning I would have thought that you were a Flyers fan.

Yeah, Crosby's great for the tissue industry, he's singlehandedly kept Wausau Paper in business due to his constant need to keep his face tear-free, and he also provides hours of entertainment on youtube with his many dives; I hear he's hired Greg Louganis as a training coach.

In all seriousness, yes, Crosby is an extremely talented player and the Penguins desperately needed him. Malkin's good but I'd take Ovechkin over him. I've never been much of a fan of the Penguins aside from Lemieux who was always outstanding to watch.

 

[sensortech]

Let's go Bruins!!!!!

 

[MeatyPortion]

You know, it's bad enough that I don't get any NHL games here but to add insult to injury I'd have to pay $20 a month to watch NHL Live on the web. Does anybody pay for this? Do you like it?

I know that you are having fun but this diving stuff is annoying. He dives no more than any other great player who knows how to work the system. You don't get to be the youngest NHL captain to win the Stanley Cup just by diving. We thankfully loaded up with great players after many, many, early draft picks. I just wouldn't trust sidney crosby with thy keys to my car

As for the blackhawks Hossa had his moment in glory, deservedly so, and it will never come back. He turned down a great deal to go to detroit who in his words "had the best chance at winning the cup." He comes up against the pens and looses. It is good that he did win it with the blackhawks as he deserves it.

And just to help entrench my dislike for all things Philadelphia (except cheese steaks), especially the Flyers here is a lovely picture that was taken in a bar in Philly in 2005:

Please update the numbers as you see fit.

No sure how much this will be liked in the forum but try veetle, you may get lucky and get a stream of a hockey game before the copyright police stop the stream. I've used it for a game on the NFL network since I don't have it on Time Warner.

 

[MeatyPortion]

Thanks for the heads up. Just for that I'll never give you crap about Crosby and diving again.

 

[Ashz]

Crosby is what he is. He's a great player. He's just simply a baby. He will be a baby his entire career. That does not discount the fact that he is a hell of a player. I just don't like him. Never will. It might have something to do with my affiliation, but whatever.

Once he is done with hockey he should have a great career as a professional diver. Or maybe a clown.

Turco had a great game tonight. Too bad his teammates were outplayed.

Damn. Toews is out for a bit too.
