NHL 2006-2007 Season Thread
 

Here it is boys. This season is going to be amazing. Talk about anything and everything hockey in here.

You're a couple weeks early.

Nah not really. Pre season starts on Monday.

LEAFS ARE TAKING IT.

I found myself becoming a bit of Blue Jackets fan last year since their's were the only games I could watch because I don't get OLN. Perhaps I should jump on the bandwagon while there's still front row seats available.

Leafs will be terrible as usual.

Columbus signs Anson Carter :n:

Also, fuck you Stickman.

Anson Carter is an idiot for leaving Vancouver. He will not have the same season as he did last year.

Also, Fuck all leaf fans.

The joke that is the New York Islanders continues with the 15 year 67.5 million dollar a year contract handed out to Rick Dipietro.

Pretty sure I'm going to TD Banknorth Garden today to meet Patrice Bergeron, Brad Boyes, Marco Sturm, Zdeno Chara, PJ Axelsson, and others and getting their autographs. :cool:

Belak for hart!

It should be interesting to see how the Canucks do this year. They were a solid team for the past 3-5 years and now have done a 180 turn with personnel. Also, Fuck you Bob Clarke.

SHUT UP!

Yeah the Yashin deal worked out so well for the Islanders, they figured they could do 15 with a mediocre goalie

Here's a question, I drafted Yanic Perreault for my fantasy team, but have heard nothing on the guy at all. He was in Nashville last year but ended the year injured. Did he retire? Where in the world is Yanic Perreault??

I think Perreault is still unsigned.

the canucks are in serious trouble this year

Theyr'e a team that is completely unknown of how they'll do this year. You can't even make a relevent prediction. They could suck because their D and RW is lacking, they could be great because they're unknowns like Buffalo and Carolina were last year. A hard working team infront of Luongo could do some damage. The salary cap really really really hurt this team. They were onto something good before the lockout.

Anson Carter signed for more money than he could have ever got out of Vancouver, even before the Kesler events. So he's not an idiot. As a Canuck fan, I hope he does shitty in Columbus, but he'll be playing with Nash and Fedorov (reports say) so I think he'll most likely do better or as good as he did last season.

I want to be on you. Biggest Bruins fan on here for sure.

Columbus comes out of the east so I take back my Carter remark.

lol

It also helps that I go to college 30 min from Boston.

As long as the Penguins aint last in the league this year i'll be happy :(

they still have no defence and an inconsistant goalie, so it may be another long season for the pens

They got Recchi back, but he is too old to keep up with the fast teams. He's still good for scoring though.

i'm totally not questioning their offence. It'll be solid with Cros, Armstrong, Ouelett, Recchi, Malkin, LEclair etc.... it's their defence that scares me. They've shown no effort to address it what so ever be it through the draft or free agency

I will come back to this thread when the Bruins are good again which isn't any time soon....

I hope you don't mean Eastern conference cause the Jackets are in the West

They did add Eaton and Ekman is a solid defensive forward, they've upgdraed their 3rd and 4th lines, they won't make the playoffs but they shouldn't be worst in the East either.

STICKY THIS

Avs will probably suck this year

Colorado teams suck at everything.

btw I see Jake Plumber is back in usual shitty form.

Buffalo better take the division this year. New uniforms better not be gay either. At least they'll have the classic blue and gold for home.

Alright I'll give you the Rockies and the Nuggets but the Broncos are usually good and the Avalanche havent missed the playoffs

Yeah the Nuggets have sucked their way to the playoffs 3 years in a row

New Buffalo unis

Toronto's got Buffalo tomorrow for their pre-season opener.

Goin' down, Fig.

Sabres new unis are terrible

Goes to show I don't know my geography. Since they're in the west, they won't go all the way. They'll make the playoffs.
