The OFFICIAL NHL 2007/2008 SEASON THREAD!

[canuckle]

Man I had to stop watching the game with about 5 mins left in the 3rd. I'm rooting for Hedberg. I liked him when he was in Van but he didn't get a fair shake from Crawford. What's the goaltending situation like down there? He's your no. 1 now or?

[Dan O Mac]

I think Lehtonen's hurt (again), maybe the Atlanta guys can confirm that. Thrash are 4-2 under Waddell now though. How's Bryan Little playing for you guys? He's from around my parts, awesome junior player.

Looks like a mutiny in Vancouver against Vigneault if they're not careful. First Naslund criticizes "the system," now Mitchell gets called out in the media and is none too pleased (don't blame him).

[TheStack]

so how'd that game turn out, anyway?

Man we lost in shootout. Just a poorly played game by the team. Props to the trashers though.

[TheStack]

I'm not sure...

I missed Kovy in the shootout... did he score??? ;)

Yes, it was very easy for him...what a player.

[BMC1979]

Goddamn Oilers...can't believe they lost with 25 seconds left. Gotta learn you don't quit playing until the final horn sounds. ****!

1) generate a little more offence than 16 shots, 3 in the 3rd
2) fire the coach
3) Allow Garon to play more than 1 in 5 games.

Torres is looking good. Too bad about Matt Greene. Looks like he broke his ankle. Could be out for like 8 weeks if its broken.

[Kovalchuk]

Kari Lehtonen has had a groin issue for 3 years now... that continuously flares up. Lastyear he was able to play through without any major isssues... but you can difinitely tell it will be reoccurring throughout his carreer. Kari has also earned a reputation for coming into camp a little bit out of shape and disregards conditioning as a neccessary part of his offseason work.

He has the tools to be a great one... but he is lazy and injury prone. Hedberg is a capable fill-in guy for the short-term, and has played decently so far.

As always, I agree with you on all points. I don't think they're even averaging over 20 shots a game. Not going to win many games if that keeps up. I agree that Garon should be seeing more ice time. A 3/2 split every 5 games would be good. If they don't I think Rollie will hit the wall and crash like he did last year.

Was disappointed to hear about Greene for the simple fact that the D is already depleted with the Pitkanen and Souray injuries. Not a big fan of Greene otherwise.

If they can take anything from the game last night, for all the teams faults, they were at least able to stick with the Red Wings right until the end. It's just too bad they couldn't have gotten at least 1 point out of it.

Greene is a tough bastartd. A few years ago he was leaving a club here in Edm and was hit by a car! He got up and walked away almost injury free. I believe he only missed 1 game! Like him or not he adds a element of toughness on our backend. Something we need since the trading away of Gator.

And your right, it's too bad we couldn't have atleast got a point from last nights game.

[buresnipes]

What is the deal with Canaidan teams? They do good one year then suck for the next couple. The only team that hasn't sucked the year after making it to the cup finals is Ottawa. Calgary seems to be picking it up again though. Toronto always sucks and always will. Don't pay much attention to the habs, i just assume they suck as well. Oilers were good then sucked last year and aren't doing so great this year. Vancouver was never really great but they weren't bad either. I haven't really noticed how they are doing this year.

[LVI]

Well they better not use the dollar for an excuse anymore. Plus they all sell out there home games so the capital is there to pay for the talent.
The players must not want to play in a Hockey hotbed. There is imense pressure on a NHL player who plays in a Canadian city. case in point is Lupul. he gets traded to Edmonton last year after scoring almost 30 goals the year earlier and was lucky to get 1/2 last year. way too much pressure.

The players must rather play in a US city and be under the radar.

Good point. Also Edmonton specificly has trouble getting players cause alot fo them dont want to play there, cause of the winter and such. Which is pretty pussy IMO.

but still. most players are Canadian and should be use to the ****ty winters and being in the big leagues was their life long dream. They should want to play for a Canadian team where they get more suport and fans than any where else.

Im not disagreeing that point. I was just stating my point on why the CDN teams arent stellar so far this season.

[buresnipes]

ya i know. they are under more pressure being in Canada but they are also going to get more praise when they win and make big plays. I think the pro's out weigh the con's but i'm not a pro athlete so my opinion is bias.

[Haywood Jablome]

whats up with these last 3 southern US teams who won the cup then **** the bed the proceding year in the reg season???? Ghey

[Dan O Mac]

I think Anaheim is REALLY missing Nieds and Teemu. That + Stanley Cup hangover + injuries = slow start. I think they'll turn it around.

[LVI]

whats up with these last 3 southern US teams who won the cup then **** the bed the proceding year in the reg season???? Ghey

IMO, that team in Florida didnt deserve the cup. Carolina didnt either but is a very talented team(yes Oilers biased). Anaheim was the only team that deserved it and like Dan O Mac said they are just missing a few key Vets.

The Canuck's style of play is to win games by a very small margin. There D has been less than satisfactory which is causing them to drop a few games. Like last year, I expect them to figure stuff out and play the system more effectively. Canucks are really hurting up front and in need of a top line goal scorer :(

[jsheppard1]

I think that Tampa in 04 was better than Carolina in 06.

St. Louis, LeCavalier, Prospal, Richards, Boyle, Anrdachuk, Khabibulan etc.

(excuse butchering of player spelling)

[canuckle]

**** canucks took some injuries today in practice. Mitchell took a puck in the foot and went for x-rays, krajicek and cowen got hurt as well and will be out for a couple weeks.

I guess Linden is centering the twins now.

I disagree. I could list off the players from the Canes team, except that wouldnt really accomplish anything as this is really just my opinion. But I will say this. Cam Ward was the hotter goalie in the 06 series because Roloson was injured. Had Rolo not been injured the Oil WOULD have beat the Canes!

Henrik is plays center so no Linden isn't playing with them unless its on the PP for the right handed shot.

really, oh. Either TSN or sportsnet west was reporting Linden was to center the twins.

Maybe its true. To tell you the truth I've been avoiding the media when when it concerns the Canucks the last week other then the game itself.

Im hella disapointed with the start they've had......

[Dan O Mac]

Crazy trade rumour for you Oil fans. The source isn't the most reliable, I heard it on a local rock station, and I didn't hear them provide a specific source, just that it was "going around." So with that disclaimer, apparently Jagr isn't fitting in too well with the new Rangers guys and is on the block. EDM and the Habs are said to be interested, with EDM as the clear frontrunners! Could be good, someone for Hemsky to feed the puck to, since he refuses to shoot the thing himself.

Actually, last year during the trade deadline, the rumour was there as well. KLowe and Slats go way back and to hear it again doesnt surprise me. I can see Robbie Schremp, 1st rd and Horcoff leaving i a deal like this.(Not spreading any rumours)

do they even have a first round pick left after the Penner deal? Would be nice to have an actual goal scorer on the team. Not going to hold my breath though.

[Dan O Mac]

I don't think they have a 1st, but they certainly have a sh*tload of prospects. That should be enough to get a deal done. I still think they need another centre though, Horcoff and Stoll are both #2's on contending teams IMO.

This year we lost our 1st, but we have our 1st for next year.

True that Stoll and Horcoff are 2nd on another team, we have a ton of Centers, especially if we were to get Jagr, thats why IMO, we would trade 1 of the 2.

[KingCanuck]

Doesnt make sense that they would trade Jagr. He is a bargin for them. He gets paid I think something around 8 mil, but the Capitals pay half of his salary. So the Rangers only got him for 4 mil and change, which is a great price.

It is an awesome deal, but Jagr's got a rep for dogging it when he's not happy with the team/system, so if that's the case, it'd be best to move him while his value is still high.

[MacGyverDel]

8 min into 2nd and the Sens up 3-0

Ooops ... 4-0 and Neil has a good fight going. He stops swinging for a sec to get the crowd to cheer more then proceeds a smucking the other guy. Gotta love Hockey. :p

Thrashers ain't looking good. A new goalie goes into net.

Last min of 2nd and Alfredson makes it 5-0

and a fight is on again. Woo hoo Thorburn and Richardson

Robataille scores first 2 goals not returning for 3rd due to injury

[MacGyverDel]

Well the Thrashers gain 2 goals in the 3rd with 7 min. left.

5-2 Sens :)

:eek: Neil takes a double minor and 3 min left with the Thrashers gaining 3 goals in 3rd.

5-3 Sens

:eek: 5-4. Get Emery out Ahhhhh

[Kovalchuk]

The Ilya Kovalchuk Show made a stop in Ottawa tonight.

Absolutely incredible... the most dominating period of play I have ever witnessed by a single player. The entire stadium was silent... except me of course going nuts in my Kovy jersey.

Great finish to the game... with Waddell behind the bench the Thrashers stars are dancing all over the ice!

what a heartbreaking loss. would have been the biggest comeback i'd ever seen.

[buresnipes]

about them canucks? their fans are cheering for the other teams now.

[KingCanuck]

Canucks are playing horrible right now.. And last night Salo and Bieksa got injured. Both will be out for a while, Bieksa had his right calf muscle cut by a skate... he'll be out for months... Add this to the fact that Krajichek is out as well whos been probably our 2nd best defeseman this year...

:( :( :( :(

Bourdon was called up tho...gonna be fun to see him.

[canuckle]

about them canucks? their fans are cheering for the other teams now.

When you're paying big bucks for tickets and your team is 1-5 at home and shows no passion or fight to win at all I think a Bronx cheer is understandable.

[Dan O Mac]

Damn Leafs lost again last night, gotta beat the Habs tonight. Canucks lost two of their best D-men. The Stars lost 5-0 to the Coyotes! What up in "Big D?"

[MacGyverDel]

You must be happy now that Spezz has re-upped. Him, Heater and Alfie all under contract for the next few years. Probably means the end of Redden's time as a Sen after this season, unless he wants to take a pay cut.

Sheesh ... what a ****load of money eh? :rolleyes: But he's a happy camper for sure. :p

Watched the Sens and Boston. Good game with fights early and Sens up 1.

The 2nd Boston gets 2 and the Sens another then the 3rd Sens win. 3-2


Caught the last few seconds of the Leafs and Canadiens with the usual rush by the Habs down 3-2 but the Leafs win it.

Hate to sea Reddin go but if that's what needs to be done.

[Kovalchuk]

Back to Back Hat tricks???

Is this kid for real?!?!?

GO THRASH!!!

*** Was at the Sens game against Boston again tonight... solid game. Thomas is quite the acrobat in nets... made some sweet looking saves!

[KingCanuck]

Edler is the future.

Kovy has got to be the best player in the NHL right now. 6 goals and 7 points in 2 games? Not to mention he's carrying an entire team on his back.

Thrashers are 5-3 since Bob Hartley got canned....

Theres this guy from the western conference, dont know if you've heard of him... Zettaberg.

[jsheppard1]

Theres this guy from the western conference, dont know if you've heard of him... Zettaberg.

yea, i wrote on the Thrashers BB that Kovy and Zetterberg were the two best in the league right now.

i gave the edge to Kovy because he's putting up huge numbers on a doo-doo team.

[MacGyverDel]

4 min into 3rd Sens finally tie it up with Boston. 1-1

4th short handed goal of season. ;)

Ottawa wins in shoot out. :)

[canuckle]

BIEKSA PROGNOSIS WORSENS

The post-surgery prognosis on injured defenceman Kevin Bieksa could be worse than first feared.

Not only was Bieksa's calf lacerated Thursday against Nashville, it's believed the upper Achilles tendon of the Vancouver Canucks defenceman may also have been cut. That could lengthen the rehab process from two to four months. Bieksa remains immobilized in a cast up to his thigh.

Also in the province newspaper today AV said "We're going run-and-gun hockey now".

Should be interesting times in canuckland the next little bit.

[LVI]

Oilers are playing Minny tonight. Hopefully we can get a "W" tonight.

[canuckle]

Oilers are playing Minny tonight. Hopefully we can get a "W" tonight.

That'll be a tough game. Minny is rolling pretty good these days. Gaborik has come alive.

EDIT: oh it's over :p 5-2 Wild.

[Kovalchuk]

Lots of shutouts around the league tonight!!

[SirBangalot]

OH YA! Stillman got a HatTRICK!... he's in my pool so yes i am happY!

[BMC1979]

Oilers are playing Minny tonight. Hopefully we can get a "W" tonight.

So much for that W, eh? You've got to think that one of these times the Oil are going to be able to break down Bakstrom. Don't understand why they can't beat him. He did make a couple amazing saves though last night. Granted, you don't win many games when you give up four powerplay goals. I can take a little solace though knowing that the Oilers actually scored one PP goal of their own.

[BMC1979]

Lots of shutouts around the league tonight!!

Ya that killed me in a few fantasy leagues!

[LVI]

So we lost to Minny, in Minny. Geez big surprisethese days. I never got a chance to watch the game because my little son(14 months) has the flu, so we were a little pre occupied. But it looks like i didnt miss much. Who started in net? Who scored for the Oil? My work blocks certain websites and i cant get any info until tonight or from my friends here onthe misc.

Up next is the Avs tomorrow night.

[Kovalchuk]

Penner from Hemsky and Stoll

Horcoff from Nilsson and Penner

Roloson got the hook after the first period... 3 goals on 6 shots and gets the Loss. Garon gave up the other two.

Thanks. Penner had a 2 pt night. He needs more of those. And we really need to play Garon more, as he is a very capable goalie. Able to play 35 games/season and win atleast half if not 2/3.

Jokinen's goal was sweet. Anyone see the hit Brashear got a game misconduct for? Ridiculous. I'm all for taking the dangerous hits out of the game, but not to the extent that hockey loses its element of physicality. Hockey without hitting is not hockey at all. It's ringette with a blade.

no i didn't see the highlights. TSN, RSN, and the score didn't show that game for the highlights. I agree about the hitting in hockey part. The league is becoming soft.

EDIT

just watched thehighlights on dallasstars.com. it was a snipe.

[buresnipes]

anyone know of any sites that have regular updates on hockey fights? I use to go to hockeyfights.com but as of late it was sucked and doesn't have any recent fights. It use to have the fights up the day after they happened.

oil are 5-10......yikes

[LVI]

oil are 5-10......yikes

Yeah but look at it this way and it doesnt sting quite as bad:

Flames 15gp, 6-6-3 = 15pts and a full, healthy roster.
Oil 15 gp, 5-10= 10 pts and 5 of our top 6 defence are injured.

[MacGyverDel]

Misced the first 2 periods but the Leafs give up 4 goals in the 1st 6 minutes? :eek: Holy crapola.
The 3rd was all I seaN and The Sens get another ending the game 5-1. :rolleyes:

Sens have lost 1 game so far this season. ;)

Hottest team in the NHL. But they'll have it tough to represent the East again as Carolina is looking good too. So much for the rivalry between the Leafs and Sens. A rivalry needs to be close.

[BMC1979]

Tough loss for the Oilers last night. In the end they can be happy they got at least a point out of it. That was a crazy first period once the goals started flying. Was pretty quiet the rest of the game. I think overall most of the team played really well. The vets stepped up, the rookies continue to meet expectations, Rollie (after the first goal) looked pretty solid and hell, they even scored a PP goal. Hopefully they can build on the good effort and put a string of good games together.

Agreed, and even Hemsky scored. He's finally getting it thru his head to SHOOT and good things can happen.

[KingCanuck]

Dont OIlers only got like 3 wins in their last 35 games in regulation??

[BMC1979]

Agreed, and even Hemsky scored. He's finally getting it thru his head to SHOOT and good things can happen.


I had a good laugh over that with my wife because I told her the only reason he scored was that Budaj was so shocked that Hemsky shot the puck that he didn't know what to do.

[canuckle]

Canucks and flamers tonight...should be a goodie if the nucks play like they did against the Avs.

[MacGyverDel]

Hottest team in the NHL. But they'll have it tough to represent the East again as Carolina is looking good too. So much for the rivalry between the Leafs and Sens. A rivalry needs to be close.

Indeed Carolina is. ;)

And yes not much of an Ontario battle lately is there. :(

But always nice to sea either Sens or Leafs play the Canadiens here. :)


Watching the Sens and Capitals at the moment. No score so far well into 1st.


EDIT:
A good fast paced period. :)



2nd

Kozlov gets 1st goal more than half way through period.

Sens down 3-0. Why, why Emery? :(

Alright. Hope is not lost. Sens up a goal with a min left in 2nd. :)


Sens down 4-1 late in 3rd

[canuckle]

Canucks take it 3-2. Solid road victory.

[KingCanuck]

Canucks take it 3-2. Solid road victory.

5-0 vs the divison this year.

[BMC1979]

Canucks take it 3-2. Solid road victory.

The score is a lot closer than the game was. Although, when Calgary got the two quick goals in the third I thought there might be an comeback brewing.

[jsheppard1]

Kovalchuk is listed as 'questionable' for tonight's game, Thrashers/Panthers

Man, not sure how we'll fare without him right now. He's been carrying this team on his back.

[LVI]

Canucks take it 3-2. Solid road victory.

Looked like a pretty lop sided match up. Glad the Flamers lost. Is it just me or does Kipper look human this season?

Yup Canucks dominated the first 2 periods and then were short handed for 7.5 minutes of the first 10 minutes of the third period. That's been the story of the Canuck's last few seasons though... they dominate a period but don't have anything to show for it on the score board.

[KingCanuck]

Looked like a pretty lop sided match up. Glad the Flamers lost. Is it just me or does Kipper look human this season?

Luongo as well.

[canuckle]

Fuk McCabe's handlebar mustache is hideous haha

We be watching them next. :)

[canuckle]

That penalty on Gomez was weak.

Man Scott Stevens still looks like an absolute beast. I could see his lats through the suit when he was shaking hands.

[MacGyverDel]

Rangers get 2 early in 2nd, 1 by Avery, and Leafs get 2 late in 2nd. :)

A good game it seaMs.

Rangers win in shootout

[canuckle]

I don't know if anybody else saw the bit on tsn the other night but it was the following.

At the all-star gave have a penalty-shot contest like the NBA has a slam dunk contest. Make it a fun event with celebs as the judges. The shooters don't necessarily have to be playing in the all-star game either. Guys can be used just for that specific event. I love that idea and think it'd be pretty sweet.

[my_whey]

I LOVE Avery. He is always stirring the pot. he beat Tucker in there fight also.

[LVI]

Oilers pulled off a victory last night against the Flamers. I missed the game due to personal issues, but i did manage to hear some of the game on the radio. Sounded liek a good game. Horcoff got 2 goals, Cogliano got 2 assists and Garon stood on his head. Next up is the Canucks.

[Dan O Mac]

I LOVE Avery. He is always stirring the pot. he beat Tucker in there fight also.

Save for the takedown at the end, I thought it was pretty even. Plus Avery was fighting with a ring on (wtf?)

Apparently in the pre-game scrum something was said by Avery about Blake that led to Tucker's reaction, if it was about his cancer than he's a total POS. I'm all for saying almost anything to get in an opponent's head, but there are a few things that are off limits. Tucker called him classless for what he said, so if TUCKER questions someone's class, it must've been bad :D

Damn, Kubina's out for a good while, just as the Leafs were getting healthy again. Most man games lost due to injury last year, on pace for the same this year :( Pavel really seemed to be finding his groove too. Should be a good game next time they play the Rags, Belak had some fightin' words for Avery in the Toronto Sun today, I wonder what he actually said to Blake?

[Dan O Mac]

I did some digging and found out the Leafs' beat guy, Howard Berger, is saying that a Ranger that wishes to remain anonymous is confirming it was about cancer, and that he wanted to "strangle" him for saying it. This is exactly what happened in L.A. when he was kicked off the team Avery's a class A jerk and his teammates will get sick of it eventually. How the hell'd the guy land Elisha Cuthbert?

He may be a class A jerk but he is a hell of a player and turned our whole season around last year in our run for the playoffs.Yes he does have a big mouth but I think he can back it up on the ice.Without him the Rangers struggle so he's a perfec fit in New York.

He may be a jerk but can you honestly say that you wouldn't want the guy playing for your team? I mean he is my favorite type of player. He walks the talk. He chirps, fights, grinds in the corners, and puts up some points.

Morrow, Neil, and Avery are my favorite type of player. Morrow being my favorite in the league.

[buresnipes]

Dallas just got rid of GM Doug Armstrong. I didn't see this coming at all.

[buresnipes]

How the hell didn't Bure get into the HoF? He is my all time favorite player. He changed how the game is played and changed how players train during the off season. He has 2 60 goal seasons. He led the Canucks to a Stanly cup final. He made every team better that he played for.

I completely agree, unless the reports about the cancer thing are true. Chirping can cross the line, and that would be one thing. Apparently Berger is backing off his story now though, so who knows? Avery does have more skill than he's credited for, he was really good in the OHL.

There's a maximum number of inductees allowed per year, and you couldn't really exclude any of the four that got in. Bure should get in next year if there's any justice.

Armstrong gone? I would've thought Tippett would be the fall guy first, with the Stars lack of playoff success recently. The new GM needs to get some scoring for that team ASAP. They're rock solid defensively though.

[KingCanuck]

Bure deserves to get in. Most exciting player to ever play the game.

Ya Avery use to play in the OHL for my home town. We use to call him the pink bunny because he was the biggest pussy ever. He was a sniper. Now look how he plays.

Bure better get in next year.

The stars need to get a goal scorer for sure.

Bure deserves to get in. Most exciting player to ever play the game.

I agree 100%.

[LVI]

Bure better get in next year.


IMO, if it's between Bure and Glenn Anderson, id go with Anderson.
Bure is like Lindros. A really good player who didn't live up to his FULL potential. So, does Lindros deserve to make it into the HHOF?
(Major flak coming from Canuck fans)

[Wendel_Clark_17]

Avery - Tucker fight was a draw.

Bure's a douche. A talented douche but still a douche. Francis, Messier, MacInnis, and Stevens all deserved to make it in ahead of him.

[Kovalchuk]

Kovalchuk wins another game for the Thrashers.

I am starting to realize Bob Hartley's dump n' chase had a huge impact on his career. I think he will win 5 or 6 Rocket Richard's before his career is over. Thrashers are turning it around and just might be a playoff team.

[Dan O Mac]

Problem with Bure was that both his knees were f ucked, and for a speed guy like him, there's no way he could be effective. Too bad, one of the best pure scorers in history. Plus he hooked up with Kournikova before Fedorov did :D

Kovy's been on fire lately. Hartley's schemes just don't fit the new NHL IMO. Atlanta needs to freewheel to be effective. I just think Waddell should've been canned with him.

it's been evident for years that Kovy never liked Bob. for obvious reasons he couldn't come right out and say it, but you could tell he never liked the guy.

the transformation since Hartley's firing is insane. What are they, 8-4 since Bob was booted??

Bure should be in. He has one of the highest GPG's (goals per game) ever. I believe only Lemieux's was higher, however I could be wrong. Anybody that knows for sure, feel free to correct me.

Yes he was injury prone, and his career was cut short. but look at jeremy roenick who recently scored his 500th goal, and will likely be a hall of famer and compare that with bure.

Roenick

500 goals 1268 Games played


Bure

437 goals 702 Games played

Bure lived up to all of the hype that surounded him. He came into the league and no1 had seen a player like him. No1 could touch him. He was faster than anyone in the game and he could do things with the puck at those speeds that others couldn't do at all. He lead the canucks to a Stanly cup finals. If he had a better team around him they could have won it. He won the calder. He had back to back 60 goal seasons. He had some injuries and was traded to Florida where he scored 58 goals then 59 the next season. He lived up to his potential. He was an amazing player and should be in the HHOF

How didnt Bure live up to his potential? I couldn't ask more of him after those back to back 60 goal seasons....

exactly.

[Dan O Mac]

The best story is how Bure was drafted. He fell to really late in his draft year, because everyone thought he wasn't eligible until the next year, where he was expected to go first overall. But the Canucks Asst. GM uncovered some game sheets that proved he had played a couple mor games than everyone thought, making him eligible that year. So they got a grade A talent really late. Hope that guy got a nice bonus.

F*ckin McCabe blew it again last night. Us Leaf fans have learned to accept some bad in order to get his offense, but it's been ridiculous this year. He's gotten bad overnight it seems. He was never the best D-man, but was always a very useful one. One thing's for sure though, Carey Price IS the real deal. I thought they made a mistake drafting him so high, but he's proving me wrong. Really composed and technically sound. He's gonna be one of the best in the league in a couple years, count on it. Couldn't resist: The Price Is Right Bi*ch!

Ya, Bure had an interesting life. I read a book about him. I found it really cool. His dad was a olympian and pushed him hard to become the best he could be at hockey. He was put into hockey programs at a young age and was competeing against men at a young age. He was making more money as a kid then adults were making. It was still next to nothing tho. When he got drafted all of the other teams were pissed and thought that he wasn't going to able to play even after he got drafted.

All leafs suck. Price is amazing. I always thought he belonged where he is. I just wish he didn't play for the Habs because i don't like them.

[canuckle]

Bure and Anderson both deserve to be in the HHOF. With the players (Yzerman etc.) that become eligible next time they both might have to wait a bit, but I believe sooner or later they'll get in. Man I still remember going to Bure's first game in a Vancouver uniform. Everytime he got the puck the crowd would stand up in anticipation and excitement.

And McCabe sucks. He sucked ass when he was in Vancouver and he sucks ass now. 6 mill per year... lawl. I don't understand why laff fans are so suprised. They keep going in the same useless cycle headed by JFJ overpaying old washed-up players. Not good enough to do anything in the playoffs but not ****ty enough to get high draft picks and properly rebuild.

[KingCanuck]

Lol @ the leafs giving up Ratka for Raycroft.....

[canuckle]

Toronto Maple Leafs rookie centre 19-year-old Jiri Tlusty has issued a statement expressing regret that nude photos of him have been circulating on the Internet.

The photographs were apparently taken last season while Tlusty was playing for the Ontario Hockey League's Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds.

"I used poor judgment in this instance last season and I have learned a valuable lesson. It will not happen again and I have no further comment," Tlusty said in a statement released Tuesday night.

The nude photos were taken by the Czech native, Tlusty's lawyer Jerome R. Morse said.

"Mr. Tlusty took these photographs of himself with his camera phone last year," Morse wrote in an email to Zack Taylor of isthishappening.com -- the Canadian gossip website that originally posted the photos last week.

"As such, Mr. Tlusty is the owner of these photographs and any unauthorized publication of these photographs is a violation of his copyright."

The nude photos have since been removed from the site.

Shortly after the photos made their way onto the site, an image of Tlusty touching tongues with another male was posted.

In an interview with isthishappening.com, Tlusty addressed questions about his sexuality last week, saying, "I am not gay or bi nothing (sic)."

"I don't know nothing about the homosexual," he said.

Tlusty said the photos were taken during a birthday celebration with friends in his hometown of Slany, Czech Republic.

Leafs general manager John Ferguson also issued a statement Tuesday in support of Tlusty.

"Photographs were posted recently on the Internet without Jiri's knowledge or consent. He made a na?ve mistake as a teenager," Ferguson said.

"It's a lesson in how something private came easily become very public in the Internet age. Hopefully it's a lesson that other people will learn from as well."

Click the link to see a pic of him touching tongues with another dude haha.

[Kovalchuk]

Thats stupid. Waste of a story by CTV.

You can tell he was just really drunk and being an idiot. That is the least gay loooking male tongue on tongue action I have ever seen.

With the hazing rituals all these NHL guys have gone through in Jr. hockey this is absolutely nothing.

Hopefully see some goal-scoring!!

[BMC1979]

Today is a good day. 2 wins in a row now for the Oilers. It was a game they shouldn't have won but Garon stood on his head and they pulled it out. Two solid games in a row for Garon. If he keeps it up, maybe we'll get a goalie controversy in Edmonton. Hopefully this will spark Rollie to start playing a little better.

And because of this win, reps for everyone who posted before me on this page!

(given out too much rep, have to wait until tomorrow to hand some more out I guess)

[Dan O Mac]

Man, a lot of Leaf hate here. McCabe isn't worth 6 million, but he's not useless either. He was invited to the last Team Canada at the olympics as an extra. If the best hockey minds in the country, Gretzky, Nonis, Yzerman, etc. thought he was good enough, he's not the no-talent stiff a lot of people seem to make him out to be. As a Leaf fan, I'm resigned to the fact that our players get more criticism than those of other teams. They're the Yankees of hockey in terms of popularity, but unfortunately not in winning.

Tlusty should have known better than to take photos like that and leave them in someone else's hands. Hopefully it doesn't affect his play, he's a really promising young forward.

[BMC1979]

Tough loss last night for the Oilers. Minnesota's got their number. Don't know what they have to change but they've got to make an adjustment against the Wild. The way they're playing against them they may as well just skip the remaining games and give the Oilers the loss.

(also, regarding my last post, I tried to rep CDN_MLB and Dan O Mac but it says I need to spread rep around...I've done that and it still won't let me rep you guys. Sorry.)

We need LAraque back, or an equivilent. We have no true toughness losing Georges, we have no team grit losing Smith and Smythy,and no leadership because Moreau hasent even played inthe regular season.

Then there's our defence, or lack of and Roloson who apparently has nightmares of stopping pucks.

Regarding spreading your reps around. You will need to rep 40 ppl who you havent repped yet, then you can re rep me and Dan. But don't sweat it for me, as us Oil fans will always be around to rep later thru the season ;)

I can't believe Edmonton gave up Laraque. I think he must have had a falling out with MacTavish.

[Dan O Mac]

No worries about the reps dude. Agreed about Laraque, one of my favourites. Anyone here a junior hockey fan? If so, what team? Kitchener Rangers fan here, we're hosting the Mem Cup this year, should be an exciting season.

From what I hear, MacT isn't going anywhere unless he quits. Thats baised on the TEAM 1260. And Stauffer is a pretty reliable source on the Oil and Esks.

Canucks stomped the Wild tonight, 6-2!!!

Weds rematch is gonna be great, since there were lot of questionable plays at the end. Gabroik sent a flying elbow on Kesler. Koviou elbowed Ohlund, Ohlund struck back with a huge slash to the back of his leg. Foster ended the game with a huge slap shot to what looked like was aiming towards Weavers head, Cowen didnt like that one.

Thing, Im most happy about is that Bourdon got his first NHL goal tonight. Him and Elder are the future of our D and both look very promising.

Well as the 2nd nears end Tucker scores the first goal. Up until this point the game has been lame.

The 3rd I hope is better. :)

It's a good day, Sens are losing and the Devils are winning.

Gerber so idk what happened there. :p

I can't believe the Leafs actually beat Ottawa. They shut them out too. Sucks that I miss every saturday night Leafs game because of hockey practice...

Leafs played their best game of the season last night, really great performance from everyone.

[Wendel_Clark_17]

There are a few rumors of players falling out with MacT. Marc Andre Bergeron was another player. And he had so much potential.

I was a big Laraque fan when he played with the Hamilton Bulldogs. Too bad Edmonton traded him.

[Wendel_Clark_17]

No worries about the reps dude. Agreed about Laraque, one of my favourites. Anyone here a junior hockey fan? If so, what team? Kitchener Rangers fan here, we're hosting the Mem Cup this year, should be an exciting season.

t4m is an Owen Sound Attack fan I'm guessing.

I'm a London Knights fan. I haven't been able to follow Junior hockey (or NHL) very much these days though, unfortunately.

The Knights! My sworn enemy :p Have you lost interest in hockey? Great username by the way, Wendel Clark was/is the man, even if the Leafs gave up WAY too much to get him from the Isles. Luongo would be nice right about now...

[buresnipes]

The Stars are already trying to get rid of Fedoruk. He lasted long in the big D.

Damn Ohlund got four games :( :( :( :( :(


I was expecting 1 and a fine..

[KingCanuck]

Canucks whoop the Flames 4-1!!!!

On fire!!!! Now were 8-0-1 in divison games.

[my_whey]

The Stars are already trying to get rid of Fedoruk. He lasted long in the big D.

I was surprised to see the Stars even give him a shot. The guy has had his face smashed twice. He was obviously timid last year. What good could he have done for the Stars? Anyways, another legit heavy gone. Boogaard basically ended his career while with the Ducks.

ya he got his face funched in twice last year. The Stars just brought him him to show that they are a tough team again. But now Ott is back and in good health, plus they have barch, and winchester but he is on the IR right now.

[Dan O Mac]

Anyone read the enforcers' poll in THN this week? They asked one enforcer from each team questions like who, besides yourslef or a teammate, is the best fighter, best player among enforcers, etc. Top three fighters were Laraque by a large margin, Boogaard, then Brashear, and I forget the rest. I can post up the full results if anyone's interested.

[KingCanuck]

Canucks and Oilers tied at 3 going into the 3rd......

Nucks getting out played but still managed to tie the game up after being down by two thanks to bad goltending on Garons part.

Luongo stealing the show!

LoL Canucks never seem to shoot very well in the shootout. Lucky to escape with 1 point after the sluggish play of the nucks.

BIG win for the Oilers last night. Too bad it went to OT. Didn't think it should have gotten that far. Oilers played pretty good outside of a couple bad goals. Powerplay stepped up huge with 3 of the 4 goals. About frickin' time. Oilers have been money in the shootout, 5-1 now. On to the Avalanche.

[LVI]

Pretty good game last night. That deak Gagner put on Luongo in the Shoutout was awesome. The Save Luongo made on the same deak was just stupid!

Ya both of those were pretty sick. Luongo had a horseshoe up his ass last night.

[KingCanuck]

Luongo was amazing last night......especially that glove save in the 2nd on either Gagner or Horcuff...forgot which one...... The penalities lost us the game....


Tonight should be a real physical game, Canucks called up tough guy Mike Brown, cause Boogard has been making threats through the media towards the star players.... he called the sedins pink and the brain.

Sanford gets the start, should be fun.

[buresnipes]

Look like my Stars finally get to play those toronto make me laughs. So far I have 32 bucks on the game.

Damn, it's war between me and you now man :p

Fedoruk cleared waivers today. Could be the end of the line for "The Fridge." He was underrated for his skills I think, he was a decent checker, not to mention a top heavyweight till he ran into the boogeyman.

The War is on. You will not win cuz i will not lose.

Fedoruk got KO'd 2 times last season. He does make some big hits but there isn't room for him on the Stars line up. They already have a crap load of guys who can hit and fight.

I think so. I can't remember the leafs playing the stars since the lockout happened. I know they didn't play each other last year. I'm not sure about the year before that tho.

Alright PPL!.. I need some major advice.. i know emery's been suckin and gerber is starting every other game..

I have emery in my pool.. i dunno i have some faith in him.. should i drop him and pick up gerber? i think once emery is a 100% he wil be there no. 1.. and gerber mite get a good trade?what do u guys think?

YAY OR NAY!?

Gerber is the man. Emery has always been a bad goalie and has no confidence or desire right now.

[DRob27]

WOOOO LETS GO PENS!!! Shootout win against the Sens!!

[SirBangalot]

Gerber is the man. Emery has always been a bad goalie and has no confidence or desire right now.

Hmm.. well should i trade:

brett clark for pronger
or emery for biron...

remember that golie so are 5pts but d scores is 3 pts.. so i am in the dilema that at the end of the season who will rack up more pts.. a good goalie or a good def?

Definitely do the Pronger deal. Schneider's back soon, probably Nieds later on, he'll rack up the PP points. Brett Clark is a journeyman who had a career year last year. Shutouts don't happen often enough to turn down one of the top three D in the game.

[SirBangalot]

One more q for my fellow hockey buffs..

Nathan Horton or Andy Mcdonald....

who should i drop????

I like andy.. he makes good plays is a key in anahiem's offense...
Horton is good up an commer?... I dunno what u guys thgink?>

Stay with Horton. He will light it up soon.

[Dan O Mac]

I agree, stick with Horton, he has the potential to blow up soon. And if your league counts PIM, he'll help out there as well. McDonald leeched off Selanne for a couple years, resulting in inflated numbers for him.

I can't wait! I'm gonna watch on tape delay so as to maximize study time for tonight. I'd wager some reps against ya, but I already have to spread some before I hit you again. Wonder if Smith will be between the pipes again, he's playing well.

no Turco is in net. I have too much money on the game. I'm going to be rick when the Stars win tho.

[KingCanuck]

Man, the Blues always whoop the Nucks...


Just sending out a notice to the rest of the NHL by saying keep an eye out on this 21 year old Dman on the Nucks, Alex Edler. We brought him up cause of all the injuries, played him top 2 minutes and saw no drop off. Hes gonna be a stud blue liner...

Story behind him is that the Red Wings scouting staff was scouting him for the draft (we know how good their scouts are with all the gems theyve found in the late rounds) and the Nucks staff found out how highly the Wings thought of him, and drafted him before the Wings could..

Canuck**** a bump in the road
Iain MacIntyre, Vancouver Sun
Published: Saturday, November 24, 2007

ST. LOUIS -- They call this city the Gateway to the West because it is a starting point. For the Vancouver Canucks, it was the termination point for three weeks of good hockey.

After going 6-0-2 in eight straight games against divisional opponents, the Canucks left the Northwest Friday and were beaten 3-1 by the St. Louis Blues.

Yeah Edler's been really impressisve. That's hilarious how they punked the Wings though!


time4muscles: How much cash did you rake in last night? I'll give it your stars, they played well. Only good points for the Leafs were Toskala's play and McCabe getting the best of Ott. If all goes well, we'll see you again in May ;)

I made 34 bucks last night. I thoiught I was going to lose after that first period. The leafs were all over my Stars. Then The Stars woke up in the 2nd and dominated. It should have been like 5-1 if it wasn't for Toskala. That fight at the end sucked. There weren't any punches until they fell down and then Mc*** started to throw some punches. The was such a dirt slash by Mc*** that started that fight though. My team will be playing in May, not sure about yours though. ;)

Haha, a Leafs fan can dream can't they? The stars have really been playing a lot better since Armstrong was canned, weird as the GM doesn't have the on-ice influence that the coach does. Maybe it was a wake-up call and they're running with it.

[SirBangalot]

What abt them Canucks.. I think Nonis should invest in some good offense.. instead of getting a whole bunch of rookie.. Yes some of them are developing into superstars.. but.. its 1 thing to re-build the team from the net out.. but its another not to have an offense at all..

Also i think they mite get rid of naslund and morrison next yr.. they should.. i know naslund scored a hattrick and all but.. even then.. i dont think he has performed in the last 2 yrs.. the way he should be

http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/standings/

Yeah I know, I guess Gretzky can coach.

The story on Bryz is that Burke promised him a spot where he could play, not just sit on the bench. Phoenix was offering a 4th round pick and Burkie wanted a 2nd. Instead of giving in to an obviously low-ball deal, he just put him on waivers, knowing the Coyotes would claim him and play him. Classy move.

[LVI]

Wow, we did it again. This time against Chicago. Our record is 6-1 now in shoot outs. And Gagners move was, once again, just sick. Completely UNDRESSED Khabalulen(sp.). And Pitkanen was playing too, so i looks like our walking wounded are starting to come back.

[jsheppard1]

Smith was awesome in that game. There's talk that Turco could be traded to Pittsburgh for Jordan Staal, that way Pitts gets a mentor for Fleury and Dallas gets some scoring help/ Think Smith's ready to take over?

I wish the Leafs 'tenders could steal one for once :( Rumours are Ferguson and Maurice will be fired, and I couldn't be happier if that happens.

MY brother told me a few weeks back that Turco was going to be traded to Pittsburgh. I'm agianst it. Smith is good but I don't think he is ready to carry the team. Turco just got good in the post season last year and has always been a solid reg season goalie. He is in a slump. The Stars need to show him some suport. Staal sucks this year any ways.

On TSN website it says Ferguson tried to fire Maurice but he is denying it now.

[canuckle]

I wouldn't say a solid.. their pp sucked.. 1/9.. and they were outshot.. i mean they won and all.. but they should have been more dominant.!

They outplayed chi in the first and the last 2 periods were fairly even. Man their first few PPs looked good but ya you're right they weren't so hot for the rest. They're showing more grit and passion though which I'm very happy about.

ya it was a great fight.

Good win for the Oilers last night and it was even in regulation. If it wasn't for the shootout this year they'd be in even worse shape than they are right now.
