Krookie Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 O RLY? he certainly wans't in Crosby's shadow that year he was dominating the league or when he won the playoff MVP. I remmeber at thsoe times people were claiming that Malkin was better than crosby and Ovechkin. He's in Crosby's 'shadow' right now because crosby is playing like abeats and was seriously injured and justc ame back. Plus, Kanadians ar every protective of hockey and are extremely bigotyed. Nope. He's in Crosby's shadow all the time LOL. Crosby is the face of the Penguins, not Malkin. t Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr insomniac Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 I'd just like to step in here and mention that until Crosby passes him in 4-5 games, Phil Kessel leads the league in both goals and points. I can't remember the last time a Leaf did that seven weeks into the season. I probably hadn't been born yet. I took this job because I thought you were just a legend. Just a story. A story to scare little kids. But you're the real deal. The demon who dares to challenge God. So what the hell do you want? Don't seem to me like you're out to make this stinkin' world a better place. Why you gotta kill all my men? Why you gotta kill me? Nothing personal. It's just revenge.

Volourn Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 I expect to see ovechkin and co to start scoring some more now that the anchor is gone 9as long as the new coach opens things up). Asa coach you shouldn't be trying to strangle your players but use their strengths. It has gotten to the point that Ovechkin is afraid to shoot or take offensive chances. That goes triple for Alexander Semin who Boudreau as all but destroyed a once promising career. Absolutely disgusting. The idea he felt the need to turn the Edmonton Oilers into the New Jersey Devils is beyond puke worthy. Can you imagine if the Poilers ahd decided to force Gretz and co to play more defensively because they gave up so many goals just because the first few years didn't lead to playoff success? Argh. Boudrsau is a good coach but I think he cut cuaght up all those stupid naysayers who 'wisely' claimed the Caps would not win the cup with their poor defense. Poosaw I say. You have a guy like Ovechkin, you tell him to go and lad the team to score 5 goals a game and who cares if he gives up a goal per game 'cause eh got cauight up ice because chances are he had 3 points. Again, as a coach, it is your job to take advantage of your players' strengths. This should be obvious. DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.

Kor Qel Droma Posted December 6, 2011 Author Share Posted December 6, 2011 Ovechkin and company are doing me no favors in my hockey pool. It's only been a few games since the coaching change, but seriously, come on. What does Dale Hunter have to do? Cross check somebody in the back during practice while they're not looking to wake them up? Jaguars4ever is still alive. No word of a lie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, how can you include the Islanders, Rangers and Devils in a conference and then leave out the Sabres? That does not make any sense to me at all. Jaguars4ever is still alive. No word of a lie.

Some fo the conferences are going to have some of the better teams in the league misisng the playoffs. With 16 teams making it, that should simply not be the case. It should be conference winners + top 12 teams by point period. Therefore winning your conference matters but the better teams get in. DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.

Krookie Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Patrik Elias becomes the all time leading scorer of the Devils tonight, and the assist came from his old buddy Petr Sykora! I love Patty and he's meant the world to the Devils, our best, most consistent forward for the last 15 or so years. We retired Niedermayer's number the game before this one and it's only a matter of time before 26 is up there in the rafters as well. On the downside, Elias had 2 goals tonight putting him at 12 for the season...That's the most on the team. 36 year old Patrik Elias is leading the Devils in goals on a team with Parise and Kovalchuk, not the best news ever. However, Kovy usually picks it up in the latter half of the season so we'll see if he goes on that 30 goals in 40 game streak that he's capable of.

I never said anything about the longevity of his career. Parise and Kovalchuk should be or are approaching their prime. Elias is not in his prime. That is the point I was making.

Hurlshort Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Age has a lot to do with performance, it's silly talk to ignore the effects of a long career on the body and the ability to perform. Players like Selanne and Elias are the exception, not the rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
