2011-2012 NHL Playoff Thread: MOOSE NOOSE ON THE LOOSE

[Elona]

Sweden out also. Finland - Russia and Czech - Slovakia on saturday. Yeah Russia is scary with all that talent, as a Finn I hope Ovechkin fails like in last years tournament.

That trio thrives on open ice.

If the NHL got serious about stopping blocked shots and hits to the head, they'd change the dimensions of the rinks. Tough to pack it in and goon it up when there's that much open space.

[Sepukku]

I hate international ice, I loved that the Olympics let Vancouver stick with the NHL size. Also, less seats and the expense of arena reconfigurations = owners will never approve of it.

Tom Renney just got fired

That's what now 3-4 available jobs

Washington
Montreal
Edmonton
and um
Calgary?

Yeah, shit sucks. International ice looks so HUMANGOOS BIG but something in between IIHF and NHL would be fine with me.

With so many available coaching vacancies, someone's gonna take a chance on Craig MacTarded... and my pre-condolences to them

[bluefan]

Fucking hell. So hot today.

Ladies are all out in their tramp clothes though, so it's all good.

Why would Washington need a new coach?

Ironically enough, plenty of people around here want Toronto's old coach.

I will lol uncontrollably if Rotten Ronnie gets hired on as head coach.

The bit about Hartley is interesting. I wouldn't totally hate that move. Although it's funny, he never really had success in Atlanta but kept Kovalchuk happy, but I think Washington has way more talent than those Thrasher teams.

Also the bit about Carlson winning a Norris makes me happy in the pants.

BizNasty in the line up. Guess it means Phoenix doesn't want to win and just want to keep gooning it up.

[Eckskalibur]

I know it's not a big roster move, but Brule out tonight for Bissonnette. The only thing I can say is, why? If he's injured, then I guess that's one thing, but if it's a healthy scratch that is kind of retarded. Bissonnette is about as useful as John Scott and Brule was one of the only guys I noticed skating last game for the Yotes.

Again, not that it matters. He's still a third/fourth liner, but yeah. Incoming Kings 5-0 with Carter pretending like he can play hockey again.

I believe your response should have been, "Biznasty in the line up tonight, cue the yotes comeback."

Biz gonna be the first player to ever record 3 Gordie's in one game. PHX wins 6-0 tonight.

a step forward.

[Deader2818]

Phoenix has come to play tonight.

[Eckskalibur]

Phoenix is looking really strong in the first. Glad they decided to play at least one period this series.

[Deader2818]

Well, Kings started to look better 2nd part of that period. Hopefully they can regroup and keep it going.
