TheOldRoman Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 I look at it much more black and white. 9-9-2 is a 9-11 record to me, but then again, that's because I have had the longest detest for the current three point system.Shootouts should never be subject to three point decisions. I prefer either a tie after the OT period, or shootouts being double or nothing.I have nothing to add except yesterday on TV they showed a graphic of the Hawks' record against the Sharks last season, along with goals per game, etc. The Sharks were 3-1-0 against the Hawks, while the Hawks were 1-2-1 against the Sharks. I understand how those records can be inverse, but that was weird to look at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBubba Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Eight Canadian NHL teams?WTF? Markham? I went to elementary school for a bit there. The hockey fans there go to Leafs games. If you want a Southern Ontario team, don't put one in the GTA. And if you really want to, go with Vaughan. It has a higher population and is the fastest growing municipality in the country. Nobody cares about your humungous-big signature.Β PotD: 29/1/12 Β Β Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has a higher population and is the fastest growing municipality in the country.Do people read the articles they post? This is the very first line. It needs to be said up front, and quite emphatically, that the NHL has no plans to put a second franchise in southern Ontario. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you don't build a 20 000 seat stadium for nothing, and I'm opposing the potential building of the stadium. I never said "Oh, so they're getting a team?".The second line:But if the league's view on that should ever change, there is a potential 19,500-seat arena project in Markham, Ont., that could one day turn out to be a viable option.I'm expressing how I don't think it's a viable option.

Punch Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Since Niklas Backstrom is out for personal reasons, the Wild have signed 51 year-old goalie Paul Deutsch to be their temporary backup until Matt Hackett makes his way to the arena from the airport. For those of you who have given up on your hockey career because of age, this proves it is never too late to fulfill your dream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEW.ERA Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Selfish penalties cost the Flames tonight. Easily the most inconsistent team in the NHL. Fire Sutter, Feaster and Ken King. Β JETS|PACK|JAYS|NUFC|BAMA|BOMBERS|RAPS|ORANJE| Β Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zpqmaowl Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Mike Richards nets his eighth goal in eight games. Also, as I was writing this, Kevin Westgarth scored.It looks like there's more fans in Dallas than there were when the Kings played there during the World Series, not a lot more but some. the worst helmets design to me is the Jacksonville jaguars hamlets from 1995 to 2012 because you can't see the logo vary wall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lights Out Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 I hate the shootout. As someone who doesn't closely follow hockey, agreed. The shootout is such a lame, minor-leaguish gimmick. It'd be like deciding a football game based on a punt, pass and kick contest. POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brass Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Ten in a row for the Bruins after a pretty horrendous start. Benoit Pouliot, he was benched the other night and has been a source of criticism by many, was given the chance to win the game and he delivered. Bravo, boys.EDIT. My 10,000th post. Cool.

Like getting Colorados first rd pick for Varlamov.But Chimmer is quality this year. Last year he wasnt terrible but the goal scoring wasnt there. He's simplified his game and really started using his speed to his advantage.

crashcarson15 Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 I'm not sure what's more annoying, arrogant fans of successful teams or fans of crap teams who thinks it's blasphemy anytime someone complains about their own teams struggles. Do you want everyones sympathy Crash? Honestly no fan should be completely satisfied unless their team wins a championship.That's not at all what I'm saying. He said that the Lightning SUCKED and I refuted that point with an example of a team that's record truly sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
