NHL Season 08-09

[Brill Weave]

Agreed. Montreal does seem to kind of get a free pass just based on their team name. Now one of the genius sportswriters here in Pittsburgh is clamoring for us to make a play for Kovalev. Just what we need another aging winger who is past him prime, hai2u gary roberts.

[Ratatapa]

Easy to talk about the canadiens like that, just because they were ( i insist on were) the Best NHL team, in history with 24 cups.

But hey it's like the Yankees in baseball, with all the drug problem they had in the last years all they got is a slap on the hand.

Anyway we want Kovalev Out, and i doubt gainey will send him to Pittsburgh unless he's really stupid. If he's really intelligent since Kovalev isisn't worth a damn cent, i would send him to the West, in exchange of Draft round like 2nd round or w/e

West team that comes to mind that could use him? Dallas, they lost richards and no sign of Morrow so

[BadKarma]

Thank god the rangers finally have the king some support

[Palin]

West team that comes to mind that could use him? Dallas, they lost richards and no sign of Morrow so

Maybe but I wouldn't expect it. Dallas is really in the market for a veteran D man, and though Richards is a big loss, he should be back in 6-8 weeks. I really don't see us making a huge trade before the deadline due to the recent chemistry we've started to acquire with our lines. We also have a lot of Wingers already iirc.

[Ratatapa]

Well kovalev can play center too but w/e i hope they send him to west for 1 reason.

Each time we trade a player and the player plays VS us, he always kill us lol

Theodore in Washington, Ribeiro in Dallas, Samsonov in Carolina and Ryder in boston

+ some others like Roy in colorado lol

[Ivaden]

I wouldn't mind Kovalev in Pittsburgh if all it took was trading Satan... lol...

[Sepukku]

I wouldn't mind Kovalev for Satan either. Kovalev was the bomb, Satan is a dumbass. Hes been playing well the past few games, but we'll see how long that lasts...

[Sepukku]

I say that and 12 minutes later he goes and deflects a shot in for a goal haha Whatever, its cool, I'm glad hes proving me wrong. It means hes helping us win.

[Ivaden]

Yeah, they're playing pretty well tonight. That goal Malkin just scored was incredible. Hoping this game will be our turn around with Blysma coaching, but eh, I'll wait to make that call after the hard weekend coming up.

O shit Talbot and o shit Kostitsyn.

[Ratatapa]

wow lol 2-2 3-2 4-2 and 4-3

all that pretty fast

[Sepukku]

Bob Errey's play by play just reached a new level of retardedness if anyone is watching on FSN-Pittsburgh's feed lol

[Ratatapa]

what happened?

edit 5-4

i don't get this game lol

[Ivaden]

Errey and Steigy don't know the definition of analyze. They were talking about Malkin must have three lungs because he can double shift and not miss a beat... really guys?

GONCHAR GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL LLLLL

[Ratatapa]

Btw i don't know for you guys, we didn't have the best angles, but in my opinion pittsburgh 4th goal was not good, it looked like the player moved the net before the puck entered

edit : malkin deserved a penalty on lapierre's check

[Sepukku]

"Hey whats all the parts of a train, staggy? Help me out!"

Sometimes I think Staggy just shakes his head and sighs and wonders why he has to work with Bob....

[Sepukku]

Pens 4th goal is good cause the net didnt leave its moorings. The back can come up, aslong as the 2 peg things stay in the hole in the ice. The net DID move, but the pegs never left the holes, it was a perfectly legal goal.

And no Malkin didn't deserve shit. Refs have called some pretty crooked calls already this game, MTL has a handful more PPs than the Pens, including that bullshit no-call on a blatant high stick they called an injury for but not a penalty for - and then immediately following it with a 5-on-3 for the Habs. Combine this with the fact that in ANY sport, when a game gets "wide open" like this, or when a game is getting back and forth during the final period, the refs pocket the whistles. In the final 2 minutes, refs don't throw flags in football unless its blatantly neccesary. Refs in basketball try not to make tickey-tackey foul calls in basketball, etc etc. Just slapping someone around after they slapped you around is no reason to ruin this enjoyable flow to the game.

[Ivaden]

What a game. Hopefully they keep this up for Philly and the Caps this weekend. Gonna be rough.

[Sepukku]

Philly-Washington on back to back days will be rough. I hate AO, I hate him so bad. Everytime Sportscenter sucks his cock and then doesn't even show the score of the game, I hate it. Hockey isn't about being cocky. Its not the fucking NBA, humility and honor is emphasized in our sport, its what makes it so great. Hes such an ass. I pray everytime I hear he gets hurt that its serious.

And obviously, Philly-Pittsburgh. Nothing but hate there.

[Ratatapa]

People saying something big should be revealed about MTL tomorrow, about more then 1 player, that could be the cause why MTL suck latly

I am scared, can,t wait to see tomorrow

[Thoronas]

Man the refs have been fucking terrible lately. The Canucks game was so bad for reffing, thank god they put their whistles away in the third. If Vancouver keeps this up we might get Chicago in the first round, definately be a good series if that's the case.
