Dear NHL: Please improve the PA systems and Microphone thingies on your referees. Can't hear shit.

What a bag of doodie. I don't mind losing to Edmonton in general, a 3-2 or 4-3 loss would be acceptable, but they have no business giving up 6 goals to a team made up entirely of guys who were either on other teams or not even in the NHL last year. The one off the ref's skate was a bit flukey but still more than stoppable, Turco played like ass, the defense played like ass, pretty much everyone on the ice outside of Sharp played like ass. No clue what the guy who was called up from Rockford last night was doing on the PP.

Was hoping they'd pull off the comeback just because it'd be mutually beneficial for both teams, the Hawks need the points and the young Oilers need a coupletchree gut-wrenching losses to build some character for when their team becomes a serious contender. Plus side is I think Soupy will be back tomorrow.

Osgood starting tomorrow

Fuck, another loss.

Oh god my week is depending on Dan Ellis starting tomorrow. #danellisproblems

Leftwinglock predicts (but does not confirm) Smith starting instead of Ellis.

[Thoronas]

orz. That fucking sucks.

Leafs V Rangers on HNIC. Giguere for sure vs Probable Lundqvist(can't see why Tortorella wouldn't)

It's like somebody went into the Leafs dressing room, went http://www.thesabervault.com/files/m...neuralyzer.jpg, and only taught them defense. Their 1st 4 games they were getting 30+shots by the second period. Now they struggle to hit 20 before the game's over.

[Callisto]

Interested to see what happens in Washington/Calgary tonight, Boudreau is intimating that if they come out flat again they're going to get bag-skated like Todd Richards did to Minnesota.

[Ishido]

orz. That fucking sucks.

Apparently they changed their mind, Ellis now shown as probably. Not confirmed though.

14 games today... I miss free center ice already.

Also Giroux making me look like a genius for my shorthanded points.

Giroux: superstar in the making.

EDIT: it wasnt you who laughed at that idea, sorry it was ishido

I dont believe it was the BG Community I said it to, but I believe it was my college friends' fantasy league I said during the draft that I can see Giroux getting 40 Gs this year or at least next year.

Wait what did I do?

[Callisto]

Think it was Alex Giroux that Ishido was giving the pish-posh to before iirc

[Ishido]

I'm pretty sure it was Alex Giroux from the Oilers that others were talking about before, and I don't think I ever entered into the debate about it unless I have a worse memory than I think.

[isladar]

Gentlemen.

It is time to watch ALL HACKEY.

[Ishido]

Datsyuk from Zetterberg after like 4 shots from different angles.

Yay a lead, Wings will need it when Osgood inevitably sucks.

[Callisto]

I can't tell if this adthe feed is messed up or if this is actually like a 9 minute long commercial break from the Detroit feed

[isladar]

atdhe has been shitty for me, couldn't get the Leafs for shit or the Wings game
