Equally Obnoxious Hockey Trash Talk Thread, eh?

[ArcticBear]

yessir, he's now big enough that his neck isn't going to triple in size over night, the oak barrel collar will be on order in the next week or so

 

[HawksBrewer]

Those were the days, before kids, when you could pick up and leave on a weekday afternoon to go to a game that cost hundreds of dollars.

This. Except my tickets were always free. All it cost me was a couple rounds of beer...

which at some arenas, and depending on who you go with, can be more than what the ticket costs

i'm going to try and make it to one of the next round game's if possible. if it's early enough in the series it might be doable for a half decent price

Ain't that the truth. $100 worth of Bud products.

 

[ICWiener]

I remember reading a comment on the internet when Westy 12 was released and everyone was bitching about the cost...one voice of reason pointed out that you'll pay the same dollar amount for six beers at Yankee Stadium. Except that it'll be Bud Light.

Some arenas are getting better. Not with pricing, but quality. I was at Sharks/Kings game 6, and we had Lagunitas IPA on tap at the vendor right outside of our section. Line was ridiculous, but I guess that's gonna happen.

Yeah, on level 3 the Hawks have a nice beer bar w/ *decent* beers, don't remember exactly what. No way in hell I'm paying $10/beer though, bud select for $6 or whatever it is, is bad enough.

So I heard the bruins got a new master of custodial arts. His name is Owen and he's great with a broom

yeah i was a little brick ****faced when i wrote that last night... i just don't like getting hyped and thinking its over before its over... i wont do any **** talking prior to or during a game... another one of those little superstitions

WTF is the point of talking trash AFTER the fact? Have some balls, man.

As these teams progress through their Stanley Cup mission, I would like to say that I approve of and further encourage the increasing levels of smug arrogance you are all exhibiting. Keep up the good work!

It's just a shame that it took so long to finally show up.

I know. I was just giving HawksBrewer some sh!t. To be honest I was glad to see Wirtz kick the bucket and the Hawks rise to relevance (and now dominance) again. It doesn't do the league any good to have an Original Six franchise eating sh!t every year.

But Jonathan Toews is still overrated.

True 'dat. I met a bunch of friends for a Ducks/Sharks playoff game down in Anahiem in 2009. You could still get tickets at the door. Unreal.

Man... what sucks about being a Leafs fan the most (even moreso than being a fan of a team that is terrible, especially now that they don't totally suck) is the utter ridiculousness of tickets, in terms of both price AND availability.

How much were the tickets? Here in Edmonton for a regular season game you'll pay about $100 for a cheap seat, and you will not be able to walk up and buy them on game today

Pffft, Edmonton (as far as I can tell) has the LOWEST average ticket price among Canadian teams, and even a handful of American teams.

was looking into tickets for tonights Bruins game, was going to try and make the trek up from CT (it's only a trek because of the GF's work and having the pup to look after)

after seeing they were $300 a seat for nosebleeds i figured i'd rather watch it next to my kegerator on my big 240hz samsung tv and celebrate the way i want.

the year they won the cup i was at 3-4vs philly and game 7 vs tampa bay ($540/seat) but that's when i had some extra money and i wasnt trying to buy a house...

not to mention im not 100% they are going to close tonight, i'm hopeful, but sweeping the penguins just sounds surreal.

This is my buddy Bauer, and at 10 months, he's smart enough to know he's a Bruins fan. (My girl has pics somewhere him sitting infront of me next to the couch deadlocked on the game... )

My buddy had tickets for the bruins tonight for $245. I went to the rangers series and paid $160... On game is enough especially when I lost in credit card roulette!!

Are those prices supposed to be high for the playoffs? Man, I would pay that in a heartbeat.

At the Boston garden at section 321 I had laguintas IPA, dales pale ale and whales tale pale ale all on tap...right spot for sure

The seats were nosebleeds...I say they are high but its a playoff game so you pay a premium...

Go to a playoff game at the ACC, I think they have the highest prices in the league. Tickets, beer and food can easily be a few grand for cheap seats

They have what, one team in town? And have made the playoffs once the last 10 yrs....it's a lot different in Boston then Toronto. And whoever pays that much to yell, scream, wait in line to pee is nuts. Haha. I know hockey is huge up in Canada....but still

No, they have MLB, NBA, CFL and NFL (bills play some home games) in toronto.... Even won a few world series.
There are also many minor teams in multiple sports leagues

WOW!

BRUINS IN FOUR!

Cheers! :rockin::rockin::rockin::rockin:

 

[Bulls Beers]

Yeah baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Can you say sweep!!!WOW!!!!!

 

[j1laskey]

IGGY!!! You suck!

 

[46andbrew]

Crosby who

 

[emjay]

Wow, that game was unreal. And holding the highest-scoring team to just 2 goals in a sweep is unbelievable...

 

[emjay]

Crosby who

I think the more appropriate thing to say in this instance would be...

Tim, who?

 

[Bulls Beers]

Really unbelievable. Nobody would've thought this would happen.

 

[Bulls Beers]

I think the more appropriate thing to say in this instance would be...

Tim, who?

+1......No shi t huh...Again, who would've thought...

 

[MeatyPortion]

Iginla is going to hang himself.

I hear ya but Crosby is held at the standard Labron is u know. Too go to beat but screw him and them

 

[day_trippr]

Iginla is going to hang himself.

There is no doubt in my mind that Iginla thing was an extra motivator for the Bs.

The defensive stats for this series are just insane. And against Pen? Unfrickenbelievable.

I'd love to see LA step their game up a notch and string Chicago out an extra game or two, but it looks like an Original Six Cup!

Cheers!
