God I wish I had time to make a sig of a moose wearing an executioners mask on a hang mans platform and lined up are the eliminated playoff teams logo with stick man arms and legs.
Oilers 2012-2013: No Winnin' for MacKinnon!
So, Preds/Yotes gonna be a bunch of 1-0, triple OT games?
Bit late to the party cuz I was driving to airport during the Ranger game, and thus heard the whole game on 1050 ESPN NY radio. Just wanted to say that in terms of saying bad things about the refs, Dave Maloney either has immunity to fines or you can just say whatever you want on the radio. I say this because he spent the better part of the first and second periods slamming the refs for bad calls. And I mean he was really lacing into them, to the point I thought he was gonna start dropping F-bombs lol
Perhaps the same rules don't apply on the radio as TV or something. Who knows...
radio and tv people aren't employed by the league or the NHLPA so they can pretty much say what they want unless their employer has an issue with it.
Anyone not on NBC can more or less say what they want, but NHL and NBC are pretty tightly entwined at this point, and every game that isn't one of the few CBC restreams put on NHLN are done by people under the employ of NBC, so you probably won't see a lot of ref criticism.
JR said they blew the Rangers/Ottawa kick-in call on the postgame shit today.
So apparently, the Blues, Kings, Preds and Coyotes being in the 2nd round of the playoffs is the worse thing in the world for the NHL....
Lolz.
Need Boston & NYR to get eliminated so we can see the complete failure of the NHL. Also opens the door for the Flyers to make it to finals with ease. Lol. Guess it proves parity does work.
BC Native Kyle Turris & Vancouver Giant Gilbert Brulet lighting it up in the playoffs. Yay!
As far as US television ratings, yeah pretty much the worst possible outcome. If Florida and Ottawa win it will be similarly bad. However, as a hockey fan I don't give a shit and just want entertaining games, which is usually pretty likely in the playoffs no matter what people say about teams trapping or whatnot.
My BGBucket is full of fucking pictures of spreadsheets
