Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

Dear satan I wish for this or maybe some of this....oh and I'm a medium or a large.
I, on the other hand, will love every scoreless minute of it.
And no, I will not DVR sports. I just can't do it.
same, my friends text me while the games are on so either way I'm going to know what's up
also I obsessively check my phone if I can't watch for updates
so anyways if anyone needs me this evening I will be watching hockey and if you interrupt me you will either get cut get stuffed or get shot

Using my conversion, I believe that is 12 Shea Webers in value.
I think that a) the Penguins are the better team but also b) the Flyers are by far the worst matchup for them of any team in the league. I genuinely believe that the Flyers are the only team that can beat the Pens. So it's a bummer as a Penguins fan that the seedings had to go down like this, especially since I think that there are teams that will beat the Flyers that the Penguins would dominate. (By which I mean the Rangers, more or less.)
Also as annoying as I find Philly sports fans, I do have to admit the "you can't beat us" chant was at least moderately clever.
Steam: Chagrin LoL: Bonhomie
I don't think the Pens have any chance to beat the Flyers. I'd let to see us avoid the sweep, but even that might not happen. With the way the Pens were playing at the end of the season, the complete collapse our of defense following that massive lose in Ottawa and the April 1st debacle against the Flyers, I doubt we would've won the Cup even if we didn't have to face the Flyers. I really wanted us to and picked the Pens to win it all, but deep down inside I knew it was a fading dream.
Also I wanted to ask here: The highest seed always plays the lowest seed every round, correct?

Torres has a history of this shit.
Jesus... I just saw the replay. Torres should definitely get some time off for that hit.
doesn't even deserve a colorful cuss.
just a fucker.
Losing Alfredsson really hit our shooting power. Just hope the Sens don't get bogged down trying to deal with only Brian Boyle and letting the real power forwards loose. Oh and someone should probably give Lundqvist food poisoning, juss sayin

Although with the ratings and questionable officiating we've seen, I wouldn't be surprised if you are right.
Are you kidding? The network executives would sell their own children into slavery for a Finals series between the two biggest media markets in the country.
I sure hope so. I'm sure as much as the Flyers would love to put away the Pens in 4, it might be worth their while to throw a game so they're not sitting around twiddling their thumbs for quite as long waiting for the next series.
I didn't really think about it being LA/NY.
That would be an interesting dynamic. A huge new crowd, drawn in to watch scoreless OT games.
Second, Shanny has no rhyme or reason for what he's handing out.
I've been using "Webers" as my units of measurement when joking about it.
Honestly, I think Asham should have gotten a stiffer suspension than Neal, because he tried to decapitate Schenn. Neal was just out the flailing wildly trying to hurt somebody.
But yes, Shanny is making a mockery of the disciplinary process.
Suspendable infraction: 1 game
Repeat offender: 1 game
Injury: 1 game
Etc, etc, add/subtract/change to fines until you get a workable fair system so that everyone knows the consequences
If you go after someone with the intent to inflict damage, and the guy is lucky enough not to get a concussion/broken bone/whatever, you still were being just as big of a dickbag as someone who caused an injury, and should be treated the same.
thing about set systems is people cheat them
Dear satan I wish for this or maybe some of this....oh and I'm a medium or a large.
I haven't been watching much coverage beyond local stuff so it's nice to know everyone's noticed. But honestly Neal launched himself high and took a run at Giroux's head in the same shift, he should have gotten more.
I can sympathize with Shanahan because he's probably having to invent a policy out of the air because these playoffs have been so violent but c'mon man.
If the Rangers make it to the finals, that will shock me above anything else that has or can happen this year.
