And VANCOUVER right on the front in big letters just in case you forget where they're from?

Tonkka

Wish they'd just go back to these...

First of all,




Second, i'll never forgive the oilers for trading satan to the fucking sabres.

I both love and hate edmonton.

I just plain love satan though.

STATE OF THE ART ROBOT

Also, how can you not respect a man whose last name is satan ?

I love wearing my sabres #81 jersey on sundays.
Big, demonic head on the front? check.
SATAN on the rear flash? check.
Let's go grocery shopping.

God, I hope the Avs do better this year

Making the playoffs in a last-minute burst of decent playing after a season of lackluster effort and then getting steamrollered by the Ducks was frustrating as all hell

And I guess I blocked last year out of my memory entirely. Didn't even make it to the playoffs. Whooops.

the new Vancouver jersey design also cost one million dollars to design apperently

Jazz Samurai

It is required that I say that the Flyers will win the Stanley Cup.

Luckily, this year it has slightly more chance of coming true.

Go Oilers. LOWE, YOU MAD MAN. LEAD US TO GLORY ON THE BACK OF PENNER AND SOURAY ALONE!

I have season tickets to the Avs.
Know why?

I'm always rooting for the other team to win.*

*Except the stars or ducks, which i loathe even more than the avs.

Ever get the shit kicked out of you buy the avs fans?

In the season following the Flames' Cinderella run for the cup a friend of mine went to a Hitman game (Junior team that plays in the same place as the Flames) wearing his Tampa Bay jersey. During the game the camera that goes to the Jumbotron focused on him. He said there's nothing like hearing 8000 people boo all at once.

Go Flames!

I'm scared about Iron Mike being at the helm.

humble

the flames didnt look like typical flames last year though

they need someone at the bench who can scare the crap out of them

Tonkka

Oh yes... The Redwings' season opener is against those stupid Ducks, in Detroit.

So I was looking for the TV schedule for the Canucks for this year. Thanks to sportsnet having all most of the games the HD content will be foul.

TSN + CBC do HD but that's only 18 games.
PPV games are still non HD from what I can see
Sportsnet has an agreement to do like 95 HD broadcasts over the next 4 years. So basically we're still fucked because they have shit for HD broadcasting still.

I used to work with a guy that was a huge 'Wings fan. We almost got in a fist fight before the series even started.

I just look at it this way... what has happened to the Wings every year since '02?

For some reason I go for the teams that choke COUGHMARINERSCOUGH at the end of the season.

humble

i finally am getting nhl 08 tomorrow

so excited

and skate

AgentBryant

I tried getting NHL 08 today... can't find the goddamned thing anywhere around here.

Jareth the Goblin King

Go Sharks!

We upgraded with....roenick? crap.

Well, we'll still good in the regular season.

humble

roenick is a pretty smart guy though

he has good hockey sense and doesnt take crap from anyone

Jareth the Goblin King

But he's washed up and a locker room cancer. I just don't see what he adds, other than cool soundbytes, of course.

KPC

LOL prospect Kings win 5-4 over prospect Ducks. Film (was) at 11.

I hated the Ducks before they even played a game in '93.

Why? Named after a really, really stupid fucking movie.

Whenever Anaheim is losing, I don't understand why they just don't have someone use the knuckle puck.

It scores every time.

You sonofabitch.
And D2 was awesome too.

When the Ducks are getting out skated, they should just have some guy go out on the ice with a lasso and tie the other team up.
