alanschu Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 Yeah, that's what I think. I have high expectations for MAF, but not yet.
mkreku Posted October 7, 2006 Posted October 7, 2006 Know what's annoying? We have the three finns in the entire world that doesn't care for hockey on our board. Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish!
Kor Qel Droma Posted October 7, 2006 Posted October 7, 2006 And Vancouver strikes again! Granted, beating Columbus doesn't really amount to anything, but two points are two points, you know? And it looks like Todd Bertuzzi might be off to a good start in Florida. Jaguars4ever is still alive. No word of a lie.
Kor Qel Droma Posted October 7, 2006 Posted October 7, 2006 And an assist as well, Alan. Plus Briere scored! Jaguars4ever is still alive. No word of a lie.
alanschu Posted October 7, 2006 Posted October 7, 2006 Yup. Pool wise I did okay. I didn't gain a ton of points because I was already high in the offensive ones, but I was able to create some distance. Still a long season though. Bouwmeester got some as well.
Checkpoint Posted October 7, 2006 Posted October 7, 2006 Those 'Nucks are starting to annoy me. They're supposed to suck and they come back with a late Sedin effort. I watched New Jersey-Carolina and took some sort of perverted comfort in seeing the 'Canes shut out. I really have a hard time liking that team for whatever reason. ^Yes, that is a good observation, Checkpoint. /God
alanschu Posted October 7, 2006 Posted October 7, 2006 Me too! I can't imagine what it is. To be quite frank, I hope Cam Ward falls on his face Jim Carrey style.
Deraldin Posted October 8, 2006 Posted October 8, 2006 Three shots off the post in a row in the Montreal-Toronto shootout tonight, before Ryder beats Raycroft with a wrist shot that, get this, goes in off the post. I'm not sure how to describe seeing so many shots go off the post in a row...
Volourn Posted October 8, 2006 Posted October 8, 2006 Rangers win again! And, Belfour better show he still has it by the end of one month. What a horrible game he had! DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.
Kor Qel Droma Posted October 8, 2006 Posted October 8, 2006 Florida didn't really back up Eddie much. Not that I'm defending the old bastard. And when players like Marian Hossa get hot, there aren't a lot of goalies on the planet who can shut him down. And the Oil suffer their first loss to Calgary tonight in a somewhat akward affair. Neither team could convert on long five on three advantages, and there were several miscommunications in Edmonton's back end. I still take pride in knowing we've padded our PK stats at the expense of the Flames. Plus I'm more convinced the Kipper is some sort of demon hybrid, what with bouncing up after being levelled by Raffi Torres in the third. Now we have to wait until Thursday until the Sharks game. We'll see if some of the bad blood from last years playoffs can spice things up. And on another note. Minnesota. Will. Rock. You. That 1st powerplay unit with Demitra, Gaborik and Brian Rolston is pure hockey pool gold. Gold I tell you! Jaguars4ever is still alive. No word of a lie.
mkreku Posted October 8, 2006 Posted October 8, 2006 And my poor Leafs lost another one.. Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish!
Hurlshort Posted October 8, 2006 Posted October 8, 2006 *ahem* Matt Carle continues to score goals. It's only two games in, but I've yet to see Malkin, and I think Carle is looking good for rookie of the year honors.
alanschu Posted October 8, 2006 Posted October 8, 2006 And on another note. Minnesota. Will. Rock. You. That 1st powerplay unit with Demitra, Gaborik and Brian Rolston is pure hockey pool gold. Gold I tell you! That's exactly what I was hoping for when I picked up Rolston. And to make things better, the yahoo pool considers him a LW/C/RW, so I can play him at any forward position.
Checkpoint Posted October 8, 2006 Posted October 8, 2006 This is getting a bit frustrating. The Oilers let in late goals in both the first and second periods while their divisional rivals grab late winners. Oh well, at least Lupul scored his first goal. ^Yes, that is a good observation, Checkpoint. /God
Kor Qel Droma Posted October 8, 2006 Posted October 8, 2006 I'm a little more shocked at how ineffective our two minute five on three was. That and how rusty Ryan Smyth looked last night. Jaguars4ever is still alive. No word of a lie.
Hurlshort Posted October 9, 2006 Posted October 9, 2006 I love how there are always really bizarre scores at the beginning of the season, like 8-6. You only get that for the first few weeks while everyone is warming up, and then it settles down.
alanschu Posted October 9, 2006 Posted October 9, 2006 Not much happening tonight hockey wise. I had 3 players active, Jose gets a W against Vancouver, and some decent stats to boot. And at the same time, despite losing 3-2, Daniel Sedin gets a goal and is +2 on the night.
Deraldin Posted October 9, 2006 Posted October 9, 2006 So little happening hockey wise that I went through and organized my hockey card collection. I didn't realize it had been so long since I had bought any. The newest card that I have is a 96-97 Patrick Roy card, yet it's odd because I don't have any others from that season, yet I can't recall ever buying a card outside of a pack. Looking through them all now, I can honestly say that I have no idea who 90% of the players are.
Checkpoint Posted October 9, 2006 Posted October 9, 2006 I had an album for the 90-91 season that I actually filled, which was quite the achievement for an 11-yearold in Sweden back in those days. My fav was Mess... ^Yes, that is a good observation, Checkpoint. /God
Deraldin Posted October 9, 2006 Posted October 9, 2006 I had an album for the 90-91 season that I actually filled, which was quite the achievement for an 11-yearold in Sweden back in those days. My fav was Mess... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I have an album that my uncle gave me when I was 7 or so. He had given me dozens of cards in it as well, all organized, although I'm not sure how they were organized. I ended up starting to re-organize them myself, but gave up after the first two pages. Got a couple Messier cards and a few Gretzky cards as well. None of them really good ones, but still.
Kor Qel Droma Posted October 10, 2006 Posted October 10, 2006 I'm really glad that I picked Pat Marleau in both of my hockey pools this year. He's got three assists tonight against the Flames. Go Sharks!! Jaguars4ever is still alive. No word of a lie.
alanschu Posted October 10, 2006 Posted October 10, 2006 The first goal was sweet! Good patience by jumbo joe.
Kor Qel Droma Posted October 10, 2006 Posted October 10, 2006 Oh mah gawd Calgary has scored a powerplay goal!! Way to go guys!! Jaguars4ever is still alive. No word of a lie.
