Comment on Who designated Wednesday goalie fight night? by Number31

Wow. I never heard the TSN version of this…. They’re such a bunch of fucktards. The call for this is no better than NESN! “All started when Gionta came flying in”? Obviously they missed the dirty hit Marchand did just before (or his slewfoot on Hamr), and the hit on Wiz on the icing after the whistle right there. “They got no one to deal with Chara!” Yea, whatevs, Chara only goes for guys from behind. Game misconduct for the sweater coming off on a goalie? Doesn’t apply, idiot! Not even one mention about Price’s rodeo skills being applied to his buddy Thomas, who bit off way more than he could chew there. “Like the old days”? Please… These Bs are a bunch of wankers, with Thornton being the biggest wank of them all. And Lucic running away from Moen all night. They can’t take it, only throw it, and if you dare throw back, they whine whine whine whine whiiiiiiiiiiine.

I don’t know if I agree. RETHINK is a word, “prethink” isn’t… yet. But people need to make up words in order to coin new ones. If enough people start saying it and writing it, it’ll be in the dictionary one day!

Haha, like you said though, Ovi at least gets to say his first language isn’t English :P Oh well, I like trying to decipher what Greener says!

I would’ve liked it if Ovi was on team Lidstrom instead cuz I was randomly actually rooting for Team Lidstrom over team e-Staal… I dunno why…

Green speaks English better than Ovi! Of course, English is Green’s native language. My favorite quote was Ward’s response to getting chosen first – “Well, I WAS the best player available!” I heard that Lindstrom was hoping to get the first pick, because he was sure Staal was going to take Ward – then Lindstrom would take Stamkos with one pick and Ovi with the other. I loved watching Toews stew, it was obvious Kane was messing with him. (And Bobbi had a similar reaction to seeing Hiller in specs.)

Comment on Remember when Pogge used to be good? by Eternal Pessimist

Hahahahahaha! I love it!

Maybe he needs to start throwing milk crates… it worked well enough in the end for Rask…

Justin Pogge’s descent into madness continues… You could probably write a book on it!

Once upon a time he flew out of the WJHC despite not expecting to make the team only to earn his spot and the starting position, then got drafted 90th overall by Toronto. And that’s where his troubles began, way before he mishandled the puck behind his net to allow the game winning goal by Davos in the Spengler Cup. Many nights, he would find himself hung out to dry by a team that had little skill and was often seen on his knees in his crease staring into the lights on the ceiling as the goal horn blared in his ears. This organization offered him little in veteran support and eventually he found himself traded to a team that was suddenly without a farm system where he was buried deeper on a strange depth chart to the ECHL and even popping up on the bench of obscure lower tier teams no one really knew the names of. Some say that’s where he snapped, but like any insane goalie he hid it well.

That is until he found himself traded for Aaron Ward and subsequently buried deep in the Carolina Hurricanes’ depth chart. Now, he bites! His insanity has reached the boiling point! It’s like Falling Down, only on skates!

(OK not really like Falling Down).

Perhaps one day the once-promising netminder will wake up with a map of Europe plastered to his face. Subtle enough hint, I’d say. That or he’ll start throwing milk crates.

Maybe they’ve gotten used to him going insane?

They show the replay of three Penguins going after him and the commentator is just saying “…you’ll have a chance to win a Dodge, Jeep or Chrysler vehicle.”

Comment on did my teams just go 5/5 tonight? by Grrrreg

The SeaDogs ruined my perfect night. The Failboats only lost by a goal though, so that’s almost a win. XD
