2011-2012 NHL Season Thread: FUCK COREY PERRY

[Bregor]

i'm confused that there will apparently be games on CNBC. how is that a thing?

As long as Maria Bartiromo and Courtney Reagan are involved, I'm all for it.

Edit: Oh and Becky Quick too, I'd like to see her Squawk Box.

Fuck yes. CBC gets Boston/Washington. That means I get to hear Don Cherry break down why Ovechkin is a terrible person at least 4 times.

6. New York Rangers (1) vs. Ottawa Senators (8)

Star Power - 7
Secondary Plotlines - 6
Hate Factor - 3
Controversy Quotient - 5
Arena Atmosphere - 8
Game 7 Probability - 5
Beard-o-sity - 4

FINAL SCORE: 38

This unexpected series doesn't exactly have it in the hate department, but that could easily change with a few contentious early games at the Garden. What it does have is some solid star-power on both sides of the ice — Erik Karlsson on the big stage could be one of the first round's most intriguing performers — and some secondary drama: Can the Rangers avoid the first-round upset in what's been built up as a Cup year? Is this Daniel Alfredsson's last ride? Will any player, official, coach or water bottle be spared John Tortorella's wrath?

Beard-o-sity is set at four, mainly because we're genuinely afraid to see what Karlsson and Carl Hagelin attempt to grow.

LMFAO

Any network that is part of NBC will be airing games now, as part of the new tv deal the NHL did last year, basically we get more games on tv than we would if it was just NBC and Versus, so I'm ok with that as long as the Hawks games get recast on CSN and we get our home announcers in market while the rest of the country gets the NBC guys.

Or him say that as hard as Zdeno Chara shoots, Orr could've done it with a backhand.
Bobby Orr baby! Never let 1375 die, Don!
