Maz Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Sat in front of two of the most obnoxious, ignorant, drunken people I've ever sat in front of at a hockey game last night. Complete with thick Pittsburgh accents and cries of "TRADE MALKIN". I should have turned around and asked him to read me the last names on the scoring title and MVP banners. By the end of the game they were hardly coherent and extremely vulgar. If this is what other cities see, then I know why people hate us.Also, the Rangers are really becoming a Tortarella team, and I don't mean that in a kind way. Wasn't sure if I was watching the Rangers or Flyers out there half the time.I understand the frustration with Malkin, though. He has to be the most bi-polar player in the league. When he's on, he's unstoppable (last season), but when he's hurt, he's essentially useless (this year).

They just show up when the Yankees or Red Sox are in town. They know nothing about the game or current players and they spout off nonsense.I'm sure it's the same in every city.

Sodboy13 Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 "Hi, everybody!" "Hi, Doctor Randy!"“Everyone sweats a lot more,” he told Sportsnet's Michael Grange later. “The brain swells. The brain is closer to the skull. Think about it. Does it make sense? Common sense? Heat expands and cold contracts. The brain is like a muscle, it’s pumping, it swells, it’s a lot closer to the outside of the skull.”Between this and cutting the ice time of some truly electric young skill players to make sure McLaren and Orr get their punchy, derpy minutes, I think we can determine that Randy Carlyle is not fully evolved as a human being. I hope the Leafs miss the playoffs as long as he stays behind that bench. He's a detriment to the sport.

dbadefense1990 Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Today's the last matchup of the year between the Kings and Oilers. And the last chance to get revenge for this:I'm still haunted by this. Instead of two precious points, boom, we get "nailed" to be forced overtime, then lose the son of a b#### game in the OT. Knowing how close the Kings are in the West, this epic ice slide still haunts their playoff chances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a life-long Kings fan and a life-long hockey fan (28 years), I didn't find this haunting, or have a problem with it. Actually, I loved it. A player showing emotion. Yeah, it sucked he tied the game against the Kings, but oh well. If you are haunted by this, you need to grow up and realize it's what is good about hockey, someone who gets excited about the game and scoring an important goal. Heck, it was his first NHL goal. Again if you're haunted by this, get over it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

habsfan1 Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 I watched last night's Blue Jackets loss to the Blues.As much as I want to support them, it's clear that they don't have a team. Brob...I mean Bobrovski might be a brick wall, but his lack of protection from the pouncing will likely make this brick wall collapse, unless he's made of some kind of irresistable element, lol. Anyway, during the final minute, if you exclude Gaborik, the team barely fought to score the tie-er. I don't what it is, but the lack of energy (or whatever it is) makes you scratch your head alot. It seems like every line is either a 4th line...or minor league line. At the last play of the game, that defenceman couldn't even handle a light pass in his direction, and the puck floated past the blue line until the buzzer.When I think about all this, there's only one question that constantly goes through my mind: Whoever their GM is, does he even care about hockey? They finished last so often, and this is the best team they could assemble? I feel bad for the fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sodboy13 Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 The GM, Scott Howson, got fired midseason and was replaced with Jarmo Kekalainen, who is fairly well-regarded by all accounts. They made some non-toxic deadline moves, and have three first-round picks next season. Welcome to the league's other 23 teams.

The_Admiral Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 They just brought in a competent general manager and the one thing no one can take away from the Jackets is that they don't give up like they used to. You're mistaking a paucity of talent for a paucity of effort. Or I don't know, maybe they finally got exhausted.Oh there was a Hawks game and I was out all day running errands thinking "hey I'll get dinner to eat during the Hawks game." I missed it. When has Nashville ever had a day game on a Saturday? Oh well. It was 1-0 and the only goal was from Bickell. Maybe I didn't miss a Hawks game. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fouhy12 Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 I'm starting to wonder if the Bruins know they're in a division game against Montreal. They look slow and uninspired.EDIT: Bruins score a fluke goal off of a tipped shot to close the game to 2-1 Montreal. fouhy12's NFL Concepts 2020 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
