2010-2011 NHL Season Thread

[Thoronas]

I still stand by my prediction that the Canucks and Hawks will face each other in the first round. It will be the first step in the Canucks hoisting the cup or choking yet again.

[isladar]

I sure hope so. Those games are what playoff hackey is made of.

[vagus]

Kesler breaks his stick and then.....

[Thoronas]

Ballard has mcl strain or tear. Will be out 2-4 weeks, leaning on the 4 weeks likely. Rough year for Ballard.

Fuck that, 4 weeks is amazing based on how that injury looked, that picture of how it bent gave me the shivers.

Quote from Ballard via his agent on twitter: "it's not as bad as it looks. I'm pretty flexible."
I guess so lol

"Told Crosby tried light workout and immediately saw black dots and stars. Not even close to starting light workouts again."

There is a real possibility Crosby could be out for the season or longer. While that is fantastic for Pens haters (which I am sort of one), that is not a good thing for hockey.

e: People in the Pens organization have denied this now, so maybe someone just trying to make a story.

FTFY

Hahahaha, Poulin, the NYI's goalie, their only good one left, injured himself in the warmup versus the Leafs, so some no name AHLer is playing his first NHL game ever against the Leafs. First two shots on net, two goals for the Leafs... Including one by Rosehill. ROSEHILL. If he can score against this goalie, each and every one of us on here could score against him.

Yea lol, looks like Kypreos' predictions are all wrong... again.

I think he changed his prediction to 9-1 Leafs after he found out Poulin was hurt, lol

[Chips]

If Kessel doesn't score against this Islander team, I don't know if he'll ever score again

[Alderaan]

Pens getting shutout again. Things aren't looking good when your leading goal scorer is Matt Cooke with 10.

Matt Cooke had another dirty hit tonight. Won't be surprised if he gets a few games.

Results of Ballard's MRI show a mild knee sprain...rehab with our training and med staff... expected to be out 3-4 weeks. ~ Mike Gillis tweet.

Lolz @ the drama in Leaf country. Not sure what to think of it. Kessel in the wrong city and just overhyped. Or Burke for pulling the trigger on the deal.

[Ivaden]

Jeez, and Ballard's injury looked 1000000000x worse than Malkin's, too.

TRADE MALKIN HE IS TOO SOFF

[Palin]

Fucking Caps, useless.

Fucking Pacific.

I'm still thoroughly amazed at Ballard...watching that video really gives me an uncomfortable feeling in my leg that makes me clutch my knee, like when you watch a skateboarder smash his danglers on a stairway railing.

And Kessel has not played remotely differently in Toronto than he did in Boston, Toronto media is just retarded.

Wonder if the NHL will ever finally shut this hack down before he Bertuzzi's somebody

[Ivaden]

I sure hope not.
