2010-2011 NHL Season Thread

Well someone will get him I'm sure, just a matter of time as to when. Seriously fucking shit though, like I just can't get any goalie support at all for the FHL. Riding on the success of Elliot alone isn't working, and every other damned goalie available is all backups who play like once a week if that, or goalies not even in the NHL.

I still think a Happy Valley WC would be fantastic, but I doubt PSU would let them use beaver stadium. And supposedly the NHL is looking at The Linc for the 2012 WC.

Why bring in shitty market teams for the WC? They need to hype existing rivalries instead of manufacturing individual player "rivalries" like that between the Caps/Pens.

Montreal vs Philly
Rangers vs Philly
Toronto vs Montreal
Detroit @ Mile High

Wouldn't mind a stars/wild game.

fuck any teams south of DC honestly.

Pick up Roloson, he was traded to Tampa and should do well there.

Edit: Never mind, I took my own advice. Sorry.

In other goalie news:

Brodeur no longer the full time starter, relegated to sharing time with Hedburg.

Anyone watching the WJC? Sweden and Russia going to shootout now. Adam Laarson looks so fucking godly.

Awesome game...minus the blown icing call on Sweden.

Up next, Canada vs USA. You're going down yanks, time for our revenge!

If that happens it's only because Real American Hero John Carlson was too busy beasting on Crosby's line two days ago.

[Thoronas]

Man Russia vs either Canada or US will be fantastic.

[isladar]

Is the WJC all on the NHL network? I haven't been able to catch any of the games and I'm actually p. interested in adding them to the hackey rotation.

[bluefan]

It's on TSN here in Canada and streamed on their site, not sure about the USA. I assume ESPN is covering the WJC.

[Bregor]

Yeah selected games are on NHL-N, tonight's Canada/USA match starts at 7:30 Eastern.

ESPN covers nothing hockey related. We get at best a 30 second recap for the entire night's worth of action.

[Callisto]

Selami I think Ray Emery is still available!

dear god yes I want him back, need more goalie fights

[Izzy]

aaaaaaaaaand Canada takes the lead.

[Bregor]

Well that didn't take long.

[Bregor]

Cody Eakin, "His compete level is just off the charts." FUCK YEAH CAPS PROSPECT

[bluefan]

This is why I love juniors. The pace is absolutely insane.

That timing play for Canada was amazing, this could get ugly.

It could get really ugly if the US starts testing our goalie more. Both Canadian goalies are kinda shaky.

[Bregor]

Oh man those nachos look good.
