Equally Obnoxious Hockey Trash Talk Thread, eh?

[jtkratzer]

I think Semin will be the first to go..

Surprisingly, he seems to be the most consistent and put in a lot of offseason work this summer. An Ovechkin trade would be a tough sale, but he seems to be the one with the attitude problem this year and showing up to camp out of shape last year doesn't help his case.

Semin has not been too consistent this year.. He has played well for Hunter, but had a rough start.. 11 points and 36 pims is not where he should be..

Ovi is still almost untouchable down here.. The headlines aren't asking why is Ovi in a slump? They are pointing at Hunter, and before him Boudreau, asking how is he going to get Ovechkin to perform..

DC sports fans will let a superstar suck for a long time before we turn on them...

It's Ovi's woman, I tell ya. He was good when it was just him and his folks. Now he's got some ******** around, it's all falling apart. I bet if he went gay he'd score 130 points.

Isn't that always the case?

Look what it did for Crosby before his head got banged into the bedpost too often.

Pisser controversy in Winnipeg...

Jets' fans lobby for return of urinal trough at MTS Centre

So, I'm enroute on my trip to The Canada, Montreal specifically, for the Flyers game tonight. Look for four obnoxious guys in The Orange & Black.

Suggestions for beers to try from the local area?

 

[Barnzy02]

Anyone else catch 24/7 last night ? Granted I'm a Flyers fan, but I thought it was freaking amazing.

Bryzgalov is hilarious.

Avery laughing at Anisimov after his 'snipe' celly, and the following apology were great too.

Can't wait for next week.

It depends if you want to be close to the bell center or if you are ready to take a walk or the metro.

Les trois brasseur - real close, 7/10 (google says 14min walk)

L'amer a boire - 8.5/10 (35min walk, 15metro, don't take a cab after the game for this distance...)

Dieu du Ciel - awesome beer 9.5/10 , (23min in metro, an hour walk) it's my favorite micro-brewery in Montréal, lot of choice, usually every single beer is good! it would be my choice if I was going to the Bell Center with you!

Give 'em hell. Not familiar with beer in Montreal, but I am familiar with the ******* Habs fans that pollute our sport. Bring your A game please. Piss 'em off royally. Throw all hockey knowledge and logic out the window, you need to get down to Hab-fan level to compete with them. They are blind to how ****ty their team actually is, and how much they rely on goaltending to drag their undeserving asses to the playoffs every year. Yes, I'm bitter.

Rando-thoughts:

Opening sequence gave me shivers. I had to watch it 3 times.
Took me 2 hours to watch the whole thing because I kept rewinding things to see them again.
Bryz is hilarious - his universe talk is awesome.
Henrik is such hunk, I had no idea.
Avery is much more subdued that you'd think.
Laviolette is fatter than I thought. He swears a TON too. It's like Boudreau part 2.
Callahan playing in front of his family in Buffalo and scoring a goal was super cool. Old grandma crying - touching.
...and the best for me: How they showed that HUGE hit from Phaneuf just sucked the life out of the Rags. Go Leafs Go!!

Yeah - if I ever jerk off to anything other than porn, this would probably be it.

I'm staying until Saturday, so maybe Friday will work out.

Awesome, the four of us should be good, a pair of Marines and two completely obnoxious lacrosse players.

Was watching 24/7 last night and one part really stood out to me. The flyers game winning celebration. One guy comes in and cues the music while the rest of the team comes dancing into the locker room like a bunch of marys. Ugh.. And they call Avery a homo.........

Other than that the show was awesome. Really shows the intensity.

 

[emjay]

Dieu du Ciel is definitely a must.

Have some Pêche Mortel and Aphrodisiaque in my fridge from my last visit.

 

[Riopel]

It is funny to see how everyone, especialy other canadian team fan, seems to care about the habs,

We are an average team rushing to make the playoff like I don't know, Nashville, But there so much attention on us, I don't know what the NHl would do without the habs, it would be la baseball without Yankees (ho but wait Yankees still are a wining club!) Damn the salary cap

The Toronto Maple Leafs and Montreal Canadiens are the most important teams in hockey. Nothing new here. Nashville? They can suck a nut.

You mean you didn't know? Every team does this.

Perhaps they feel they can "dance like marys" because they know in a couple hours they'll be at some club with the hottest women in the city swooning over them.

Important to who?

Anyone that matters

 

[arturo7]

Jeez, what's up with this place? Defending mary-dancing? Fawning over players like teenage girls? I assume the discussion to ban fighting will start soon...

Well, it does have no place in the game. Same with hitting. I want to watch men's beer league hockey.

 

[arturo7]

I think broomball will be the next big thing.

They say that in Toronto, in Phily they say it's the Flyers and the Habs, Detroit : the wings and the habs... In Montreal they say it's the habs and the Nordics...

 

[MeatyPortion]

Blackhawks are doing pretty well. I am happy.

3 game winning streak and 2nd in the league.

 

[ytsejam]

Was a pretty good game last night.

No fan of the shootout but it was fun watching Kane make Backstrom look silly.

Kane was as slow as Brunette with John Scott riding on his shoulders.

[Riopel]

It's a nice one, I've got him in my pool, too bad he didn't make any other points in this game, Toews 2pts at least that is good for me!

Does Canada still have hockey teams? Last I looked its been quite a while (the 93 season) since one of them have won the Stanley Cup. For Toronto, since 1967!

Just wait until the Toronto Bills win the Superbowl, than we'll see who's laughing!



Although, I totally agree...The Leafs suck!

Ahh, the old butthurt 1967 talk. Took long enough, but it does show how Toronto is the NHL's most important team. After all, why would everyone give a such a **** about them?

Did you know the LA Kings and St. Louis Blues also have the exact same drought? They've never won a cup since they came in to the league in 1967. I guess they suck too.

Buffalo and Vancouver are pretty **** too then I suppose. They've both never won the big trophy, and have been trying to since 1970.

Ottawa - how do we even count them? They haven't won since 1927, and weren't even important enough to have an NHL team from 1934-1992. We'll just pretend they don't exist, it's better for everyone that way.

77% of NHL franchises are located in the USA. I'd take those odds any day. I don't understand how a game in which the majority of players come from Canada is considered to be dominated by a different country. Do you chant "USA, USA" at hockey games vs. Canadian-based franchises?

And don't worry - a Canadian team will win it soon. We're currently on a mission to tip the scales back in favour of the Great White North, by moving some franchises back up where they belong.
