2010-2011 NHL Season Thread

Wow lupul just sat on howards shoulder and scores a bullshit goal.

He got pushed in, so not really.

edit: eh, just watched the replay... heh, FUCK THEY SCORE FUCK

[Bregor]

Great counterpunch by the Caps there, Backstrom to Semin SSCCAAAWWWWWWRRRRRRREEEEE

[Callisto]

holy fucking shit crawford

[Callisto]

also anyone who wants to see Ducks/Hawks shoot me a PM, feed quality is only average though

[Bregor]

Holtby for playoff starter! A lot of swagger from this kid, like Kolzig minus the stick breaking.

[Judai]

I wouldn't want to be Boudreau when he has to decide which Goalie he is playing in the playoffs. Holtby is hot but little experience, Varly is great but is injured constantly and Neuvirth is solid but hasn't been amazing yet.

ouch@Mtl, 3 straight shutouts and other then that 8-1 win against Min they have been outscored 17-3 in their last 4 losses.

[Chips]

Welp, see you next season folks

[Snick]

Am I the only one who giggles a bit whenever anyone says "This is the biggest game of Toronto's season"?

Like they even have a chance.

[Snick]

But then again, I'd rather Toronto still have some glimmer of hope so TSN and CBC don't tease Winnipeg instead

[Callisto]

Their season was done the moment they didn't sign Versteeg to a multi-year megabucks deal.

[Kirin]

Ok, honest question now for Detroit.

Can we even consider trading for Nabakov post-deadline since we have an existing contract with him? Or are we left looking for another call up from Grand Rapids? I've never understood how trade deadlines work in any sport.

Detroit has no contract with him, the Islanders own his rights if he tries to play in the NHL.

[Bweigelt]

Yeah Detroit is basically SOL if Howard is out long term they'll be rocking McDonald and Larsson or whoever from the minors.

[Callisto]

Ridiculously tight game so far, Crawford with a huge 2nd period.

I'm almost positive that if Varly is healthy, he's the guy. He's gone to him two straight postseasons. If not, well, Neuvirth's seen the most action this year but Holtby has been stellar.

But here we are again, a week from April, and we have questions about the goalie situation, health, and secondary scoring. Only this time, it's different!

[Callisto]

Is Green still out? Haven't even payed much attention to the Caps recently but it looked like they've been playing well.

[Callisto]

lol the lead singer of Cheap Trick doing the 2nd period shoot-the-puck contest and nails it

[Judai]

Mike Green is still out. They say he should be ready for the playoffs but who knows at this point. Team is playing great defensively but still struggling a bit to score.

[Callisto]

fuck Corey Perry

[Thoronas]

Fucking Corey Perry.
