Defending the Title starts tonight! WOOOO!

Droford 10-06-2011 07:21 PM

The capitals will have like, 110 points and lose in the first round like they always do.

Arashi Kage 10-06-2011 07:54 PM

:D

People on ESPN's board for the game were complaining and trolling how long the ceremony lasted while forgetting it was due to the NHL wanting the whole ceremony shown nationally and not just on the local NESN channel.


Bruins still seem to have a problem with closing out periods but it is too early to see if its due to new season rust or a season-long problem.

El Fangel 10-06-2011 09:51 PM

Fuck.

Corndad 10-06-2011 10:26 PM

James Freakin Neal.

El Fangel 10-07-2011 12:33 AM

6 weeks Gertie, you pick the avatar.

Champion of Europa 10-07-2011 01:37 AM

Malkin's patience on that shootout goal was sick. Loved that. Fleury made some great saves, but also gave up that terrible goal.

Also, Optimus Reim. What up.

Voukun not starting tonight. Yeesh.

Gertner 10-07-2011 01:16 PM

OPTIMUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS REIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

FA, throw an Optimus Reim avatar on there. It's a picture of Reimer's mask with Optimus Reim under it. Shouldn't be hard to find.

Champion of Europa 10-07-2011 03:47 PM

Buffalo played expectedly well against a seemingly sluggish Anaheim. Vanek is going to have a big year, I can feel it. He's got the right pieces around him.

Richards was great in his debut with the Kings.

Hanso Amore 10-07-2011 04:19 PM

Tyler Ennis - 20 Goal Scorer coming off a great rookie year - expected to score 25-30 this year

Ville Leino - coming off a 53 point season

Brad Boyes - Scored 40 goals several times

That is the Sabres 3rd line....FUCKING 3rd line should push 60 goals and 150 total points.

weather vane 10-07-2011 06:14 PM

Yeah Buffalo looks nasty...

Mike the Metal Ed 10-07-2011 07:56 PM

Sens losing. Picking up where they left off then.

Gertner 10-07-2011 08:07 PM

They have some nice young players, but Anderson is gonna have to stand on his head this year.

RP 10-07-2011 08:37 PM

Let's go Hawks!

RP 10-07-2011 08:38 PM

Interested in seeing Saad tonight.

I meant today. Voukun was confirmed to not be starting in net.

Champion of Europa 10-08-2011 11:28 AM

Also, Predators FTW.

Gertner 10-08-2011 12:41 PM

No Carcillo for Chicago. That's disappointing.

Gertner 10-08-2011 03:40 PM

Nevermind. Forgot that he's suspended.

Hanso Amore 10-08-2011 07:26 PM

Luke Adam looking like a boss on the top line.

Champion of Europa 10-08-2011 10:50 PM

Predators 2-0! Boom.

Legwand, Wilson, and Smith played out of their minds when the Preds were lacking energy. I'm glad that line stepped up with Erat out, because without him the Preds need all the offense they can get.

Emperor Smeat 10-08-2011 11:11 PM

:D Bruins played much better today against the Lightning for the win while the experts weren't joking in saying Tampa was going to rest Roloson a lot this season with his 1st game off being today.

Seguin has been amazing so far with 3 assists in 2 games.

:eek: Leafs almost blew the game in the 3rd after leading 4-0 earlier against the Sens.

Champion of Europa 10-09-2011 01:16 AM

Every aspect of the Sharks game is fantastic right now, except for their penalty kill. It's like they go retarded for two minutes at a time.

Londoner 10-09-2011 04:28 AM

Love watching streams of hockey games and the fact they seem to be on every fucking day, can watch Boston/Anaheim and Kings(decided on following all of them, couldn't pick one but then i don't live in the US or canada) when i wish now, wish i could've done this last season. Going to be a fun season for me. :y:

El Fangel 10-09-2011 04:36 AM

Holy fucking Jeff Skinner.

Missed this. Its up now, so 6 weeks from now.

Hanso Amore 10-09-2011 09:31 AM

I hate the leafs, but that would make a killer shirt. Fucking AWESOME.

Gertner 10-09-2011 05:26 PM

Phill the Thrill KESSSSSSSSSSEL!

Londoner 10-10-2011 03:21 PM

Did not expect Bruins to get beat by Colorado. At home.

Congrats on having a shootout with the worst team in the league.
