The Official NHL Thread

I don't even know how to skate. In my close family nobody likes sports. But my uncles love soccer. Soccer is the big thing in my family.

I don't even remember learning how to skate, lol. Started skating when I was 2. I do remember that around age 4 or 5, Mom would put my skates on, and I would skate to the rink.

I grew up in a mountain resort. Everyone was either a skier or a skater.


Same town Ryan Smyth is from.

I was like that with swimming, I don't even remember when I learned. I know my mom tought me cause dad took us on vacation earlier and she was gonna come a few days later and found me in the ocean with the swimming ring around my waist AND arm rings AND my dad holding my hand. She was like "she'll never learn like that", so she tought me to swim the same day. I was little so I don't remember it.

I'm sorry, Va. Do I get to choose which one of the mods gets to punish me

I'm just screwing with you, you know that You're right, I don't have anything to contribute with when it comes to hockey, I'm leaving the thread.

Yeah I kind of agree...still she came here and called us "manly" so it's not like she didn't contribute

I did try to bring it back wih tbe Ryan Smyth reference. ...and my Oilers might actually make playoffs.

Oh boy....I'm not saying the Rangers are headed for greatness anytime soon, and i know Crosby didn't play last night, but the Penguins transitional defense and goalie didn't look too good last night. Giving up 6 goals is one thing.....giving up 6 goals to the worst scoring team in the sport is another. Sometimes when you mess with team chemistry too much, things like this can happen........That being said, if Pitt kills us tomorrow night, I won't really be surprised.

They've looked lost the last two games....

Not just Crosby, but their top two defenders as well, but we'll see tomorrow night... I think you'll see a different team....

[Romeo Delight]

Sure hope it isn't true but I heard a rumor that Crosby is experiencing concussion-like symptoms.

Someone out of Philly reporting this

Yeah, what a shocker....

It was so much bullshit that Shero himself told the press is was bullshit, as well as his agent, and every single Pittsburgh beat writer....

[Take 'Em]

Big game tonight....every game from here on out is a big game for the Rangers. Gotta first get into the playoffs, but hopefully not as an 8 seed. Don't wanna face Pitt first round.....then again, there's something to be said for a team that has to scratch and claw their way in.....look at the Kings last year. That's the beauty of hockey.....you never know who is going to make a run in the playoffs....never a clear-cut favorite and home ice doesn't always mean the world. How can people not love this sport?

How true!! The Blackhawks beat the Red Wings like a "Rented Mule" on Sunday in Detroit and last night lost in a shoot out at home to the 2nd Worst goalie in the NHL... It all comes down to playoff momentum and having the heart to win down the stretch. Coolest Game on Earth!!!!!!!

Man oh man , was right winger Adam Cracknells second goal of the game ( and of the season ) a thing of beauty or what ?!? Stunning !
Go Blues !

I'll take 3 out of 4 pts against the Pens. Fleury played his ass off last night.

Yeah, helluva hockey game....

[smorgdonkey]

Yes, Fleury was highlight reel multiple times during that game. If Crosby is able to come back for the playoffs there is a serious Cup run in the works.
