[Tournament] 06-07 NHL Discussion Thread

The Dopefish beat me to it. *sniff* Mario, this Wisconsinite will miss you.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

This is seriously almost bringing a tear to my eye. All those years cheering on a hockey team are about to go down the drain....

If I would like to see the franchise go anywhere, it would be to Canada or any place North really. Seriously fuck Kansas City. The team will go bankrupt the following season if they go there.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I really have nothing to say. So sad right now.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Now, Governor Rendell is going to ask the National Hockey League to halt the move. *rolls eyes* I'm 1 of the last people to support new sports construction projects, but Crosby needs a new home!

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

No. He doesn't. Every single game is a sell-out lately. The fan base is here. The government needs to stop being a bunch of whiny cunts.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Apparently there will be an end to the story, one way or another, tomorrow, when Bettman steps in (again).

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Or not. Talks drove things in a positive direction, apparently, but they will continue talking next week.

In other NHL news, the Penguins lost to the Devils, but in a shootout. And...

YouTube Video

Chris Simon gets drilled into the boards by Ryan Hollweg, and, in response, gives him a check swing to the face with his stick. ESPN's Barry Melrose suggests Simon should be suspended for at least the rest of the season. I agree.

Apparently Marian Hossa got mugged by Francois Bouillon (who then got thugged by Keith Tkachuk), but, as they say, YouTube or it didn't happen.

FELIPE NO

I don't really know what they're talking about it being a clean hit. It was pretty visibly from behind, but that was still a stupid thing to do. You don't hit a guy in the face with your stick.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Chris Simon has been indefinitely suspended by the NHL. Good call.

How ya doing, buddy?

...Why must they embarrass the league? *sigh* Sadly, I heard more than 1 comment here about it "making the game more exciting." *shakes head*

There's nowhere I can't reach.

This is a strange coincidence.... Simon's stick swing happened on the three year anniversary of Bertuzzi's cheap shot on Moore.

It also happened on the 42nd anniversary of the first US combat forces arriving in Vietnam!!!!!

(Moral of the story: anniversaries happen all the time)

Yes, but bertuzzi's incident is a more appropriate anniversary for this matter because it's hockey related.
(moral of the story: A retarded comment deserves a retarded reply.)

In other news, the Canucks beat the Sharks 2-1 in overtime, earning Luongo his 39th win in one season with the Canucks, beating the previous record held by Kirk McLean. Congrats, Lug!

Holy shit I hope the irony here isn't lost on anyone.

Someone with the mental capacity of fiddlegoof commenting on anything being retarded is an irony so hefty that it is impossible to miss.

FELIPE NO

25-43 games for Simon, depending on how deep the Islanders go in the playoffs.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Serves him right.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Which is to say 25 games.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

You forget the magic of Ryan Smyth, sir. He's an X-Factor.... I sort of want NYI to win the cup, because fuck Edmonton, that's why.

Most amazing jew boots

The only way I would support the Islanders on a cup run is if they brought back those sweet ass fisherman jerseys. Things were bitchin'.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Ladies and gentlemen, your 2006-07 Stanley Cup Champion New York Gorton's Fishermen!

I was speaking idiomatically.

What's that? I can't hear your jokes over the sounds of AWESOME.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Ahh, the Hartford Whalers. Their mascot was probably the greatest in history.
