Equally Obnoxious Hockey Trash Talk Thread, eh?

If the Devils get some NY bounces they win in 6. Devils/Kings play a similar game, would be a much more competitive series. I think Jersey has a better shot than NY.

 

[Bulls Beers]

Woot! 3-0 for the Kings

Man, they are rolling.....

Can't find the record for fewest games play to with the Cup. LA might set it at 17 if things keep going this way.

 

[Goofynewfie]

Before expansion detroit went 8-0 one year, not sure what current record is

I'm sure everyone knows this but that's why they throw octopus. Why not tarantulas?

Well, i don't know fewest games, but the best record to a cup was the one of Gretzky's Oilers teams at 16-2.

The only thing that irritates me if the kings win the Cup, is that Carter sulked his way to having his name on the cup.

I love Dustin Brown. Still a Richards fan. Quick is just .... yeah, ****ing insane.

Because the tradition was started by a fishmonger. Why the catfish in Nashville? Is it because a catfish has as many legs as they have Stanley Cups?

No game tonight, let's enlighten each other on how teams got their names. Here's the Devils for anyone that doesn't know.

Gotta say the NJ logo is one of my favorites in the league, great name and design.

I thought somebody's wife in ownership comment "look at those flyers go"? Thought I heard that on Daily News Live once.

 

[Goofynewfie]

Who is the greatest player ever and why? Im an oilers fan, I live in edmonton but I dont think its gretzky........ Start the arguments

 

[arturo7]

No puck tonight? What the snot?

East tomorrow at frickin 1pm and West Sunday at 3. Just what I wanted to do while it's in the mid 70's, sit inside and watch tv.

Its at 9am here. Every other game is at 3pm. That's why my comments are in the middle of the night for u guys. We record every game, then fast forward through commercials and Milbury.
I thing Gordie epitomized the best of the best for hockey players. The guy was a stand up gentleman off the ice, a leading scorer, passer, and fighter. That is BADASS!!!!

 

[Goofynewfie]

I go with bobby orr . He could do it all shoot,skate score,play defense and fight. Also if I had to draft an alltime in a fantasy league format I have no doubt that I would take him #1overall. You wouldnt score a many goals as if you took gretzky or howe first, but you wouldnt give up as many either.

 

[sivdrinks]

It would almost hafta be a power forward, someone that did everything. I can't relate to the old timers because I'm only 39. Tough question.

I still think Gretzky. You gotta hand it to him. All time leader in goals, but if he never scored a single goal, would still lead all time in points. That's just sick. Orr would be a close second. Lemieux 3rd. Guy was producing after cancer and being the owner and multiple retirements. Mike Bossy should be in the conversation too.

You know how many Gordie Howe hat tricks, Gordie Howe had? 2. We should call it the Stan Mikita hat trick.

 

[ColbyJack]

His presence was enough to scare people away.
Just like Brian Boyle!!!

Ahahahahaha. I crack myself up.

Honestly. Gretzky was named the great one for a reason.

 

[ColbyJack]

And he got that nickname at the old age of 13. The Great Gretzky already had 1000 goals.

 

[Goofynewfie]

Orr won the scoring title as a d-man. He beat out lafleur,esposito,clarke,hull,etc. He only ever.played.one season healthy, most of his career his knees were shot

 

[sivdrinks]

Try to imagine getting 212 points today. I mean 106 is frikin good.

 

[Goofynewfie]

Gretzkys point totals are unreal, but I do think that they were inflated by who his teammates were and the era he played in. there was an average of almost 8 goals a game compared to 4 to 5 all other eras

Also true, Sniders wife at the tine suggested Flyers apparently.

Philly is a stones throw away from Camden, just sayin.
