2009-10 NHL Thread

[Thoronas]

So glad I benched Lundqvist tonight. Fucking knew it would be a slaughter.

[Sepukku]

Even for giving up 5 goals he still had over .900 and with OT, his GAA was under 5.00 (still not good on the GAA, but the Pens had 55 shots).

[Thoronas]

The last thing I need right now is a bloated GAA but yeah Lundqvist is easily one of the best parts of the team especially with Gaborik out.

[Arnwulf]

Someone on my Bluejackets forum I go to laid out how our team is going to look next year, here are the players and salaries:

Forwards
Nash- 7.8m (09-10 5.4m)
Huselius- 4.75m (09-10 4.75m)
Umberger - 3.75m (09-10 3.75)
Vermette- 3.75m (09-10 2.76m)
Pahlsson- 2.65m (09-10 2.65m)
Clark-2.63m (09-10 2.63m)
Voracek-1.27m (09-10 1.27m)
Brassard- 3.2m (09-10 1.25m)
Murray- .625m (09-10 .625m)

RFA
Stralman .731
Boll .743
Paestsch .850
Filatov?? I think he makes 800k or so

About 47mil tied up already next year, and if the rumors of our own internal budget of $50mil are true, we're screwed. I hope we can get rid of someone in the offseason in order to upgrade some talent, otherwise next year is going to be just like this year.....bleh.

Strahlman won't resign for 700k, either.

[Arnwulf]

Yeah, I'm pretty sure if they don't make some good moves in the offseason and next season turns out like this one, Howson, our GM, is gone, or he should be at least. This team is completely his, he can't blame any of it on the bad contracts signed by our prior GM, those are all off the books now.

[Absolutely Virtue]

If Backstrom keeps single-handedly killing 4 on 3 power plays WITHOUT A FUCKING STICK I might just have to chance the subject of my Caps manboy love fantasies. Holy shit.

[Abraxas]

lol at Avery mocking fag-hard's pussy swatting


best part of the game. aside from Crosby/Lundqvist's man war

[Sepukku]

The whole game was freaking pathetic, Sportscenter said Rangers had 16 shots. Pens had 55. For it to even have gone to OT for a 5-4 win is ridiculous. If there was Time of Possession like in football, it would be like 52 minutes Penguins, 11 minutes Rangers.

Talbot's my favorite player without question, but I could not stop laughing when Avery was making fun of him. I would've done the same thing, Talbot looked like he was in a faggot fight.

[Sepukku]

Random fact uncovered when doing research for my black athlete list in the racism thread:

Donald Brashear's great uncle was the Navy's first black master diver the Men of Honor movie with Cuba Gooding Jr was about.

[Abraxas]

yea, it was pretty bad when the announcer ( is it Sam Rosen?) said "11 and a half minutes in, the Rangers still looking for their first shot"

although, Staal did clank one off the post fairly early in the third

and if anyone can challenge Pierre's love for Mike Richards, its surely Joe Micheletti's (sp) love for Lundqvist. he is an elite goalie, but damn. keep it in yer pants brah

[Abraxas]

if you want to be the best, this comes with the territory.
some of these are pretty good

I don't see Kimmo Timmonen doing any dancing, flame breathing, or in-Ovechkins-ear-laughing.

[Ivaden]

Oh wow, the one with Ovechkin is incoming new avatar I think.

[vagus]

Nash needs to leave the CBJ. He'll never compete for a cup there. An amazing player on such a shitty team

Big test tonight for the 'Nucks. No abs Kane vs. the Twins. Lol.

in what sentence did I say Timonen was the best? you should learn to laugh at yourself (or your team)
