The NHL Thread

If the price is right on ebay, I'll snatch one up. Tempted to buy a ticket half for the ring and half to remind the twin sisters how terrible they are.

I'll be the first to admit that the Sharks are playing some inspiring hockey. Canucks with 5 posts, haha.

Lets not get too far ahead of ourselves here. Its the Sharks, regular season success is their forte. Lets see what happens come playoff time.

Congrats Michael Leighton on actually making Ilya Bryzgalov look like a good goalie by comparison.

^Hawks, Vancouver and the Schmucks seem to be the early favorites to come out of the west.

Kings need to get it together! that was a heartbreaking loss yesterday.

Just got home from game. Unreal goal by Kopi and Bernier stood on his head. Big win streak right now. We needed it!

[bemerritt]

feels good to win one that we got outplayed in

[sonnyboy11]

Both teams struggled to control the puck. It was all over the damn place. Kings were flat in the first, second period was a draw and we won the third. I guess if you think we were outplayed overall, I won't argue it. But yea, scoreboard is everything.

The only enjoyable thing about that game last night was Randy and Drew announcing on NBC.

[brematale111]

just another ducks win. 9 point lead in the division, don't worry about it grandma, and other phoenix fans. fuck LA, fuck Phoenix, and fuck San Jose

[euphonicfiend]

Ducks fans are the worst.

[ManImCool]

All 126 of them.

[brematale111]

woooooooooooooaaaah woaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hh

[bemerritt]

Realignment confirmed by the nhlpa. Will be evaluated in two years. Pretty indifferent on the matter.

Well if your team is in the Western Conference then you have a statistically higher change of making the playoffs over a team in the Eastern conference. So there's that.

As a Sharks fan, I like Detroit being in the Eastern conference, if anything so that if we are to play them in the playoffs, it'd appropriately be in the Stanley Cup Final, rather than in an earlier round in the playoffs. There has been some fantastic hockey between the Sharks and the Red Wings in the playoffs.

[scenicworld]
