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!
[NHL] Something about the playoff should probably be in the thread title.

Ovechkin definatley has those intangibles, and will make a great captain someday. He was actually offered Captainship and declined it, because he felt his English wasn't good enough yet to actually effectively communicate, and nominated Clark. He's got that amazing ability to just make every single player around him better, just with his natural instinct. Players like Brooks Laich, Thomas Fleishmann, Boyd Gordon -- all of them has seen massive improvements in their productivity just by getting on the ice with him.
And the best part of Ovechkin by far is that he doesn't need anyone to come and protect him. That guy can take it, and dish it out, and then score.
They don't have defence. They have pure fucking blind luck. In a span of 2 minutes, NYR hit 3 Leaf goalposts.
I just learned this yesterday and it's pretty fucking sweet since I don't think we get shit for game service in Kansas.
I just hope Andrei is okay
Thats like beating the slow kid at recess
That is all.

As a huge Caps fan, I have to say, that was a bit insane.
On the other hand, we don't need competition in not winning the Stanley Cup. Get your own city for a losing record!
That would be really, really stupid.
Doesn't Toronto already have an NHL AND an AHL Team?
Just give Hamilton a team already.
Shock, surprise, consternation, alarm. These describe none of the emotions I'm feeling over the Canucks and their performance.
Or put one back in Winnipeg.

Much as I'd like the Jets to return, I just don't think that Winnipeg has the population or money to support an NHL team. IIRC, their ticket sales weren't great back in the mid 90's, and tickets now are going to cost way more than they did back then. Also, the new arena they built is too small.
The only way I see Winnipeg ever happening is if the Asper's decide they want a team.
I could have sworn it was bigger, but yeah I just looked it up and Wikipedia says the capacity is just over 15,000. That is way too small. That's the reason they're building a bigger arena in Edmonton.
Winnipeg, Hamilton, Quebec, I really don't care where they put. Just don't give a city two teams when there are markets out there that would love to have an NHL team and could support them. It almost like Toronto is trying to be like New York. First they step up their efforts in the area of gun crime, and now this.

Yeah...
Either the defense really sucks or Luongo sucks. The offense is fine this year, but they're just letting in too many goals!
What's sad is that if the Canucks suck this year then Luongo is probably gone. Overrated or not, it will be really, really hard to replace him with someone decent.
No, fuck him. I need Bertuzzi to friggin score. I picked his ass up off waivers for his scoring. I swear I pick up guys just as they get off scoring streaks.
They... they try hard.
Well, they are the youngest team in the league. It's too bad they suck so they're never on TV in Canada. There's a chance they'll still make the playoffs this year. Not a great one, but it exists.

*The puck blew apart in the first period. I used to watch a lot of hockey but I don't think I ever seen it happen. And it was down by the goal I was sitting behind.
*Seeing Ovechkin get laid the fuck out in the third period.
*All three goals were in the goal I was sitting behind, so lots of action all night.
Wait, so the puck like, broke? I've never seen that before in my life.
Also, my Oilers I think are starting to feel the horrible fucking schedule they have at the beginning. After a horrible effort wednesday in Chicago they played really well for the first half of the game against Colorado before the wheels completely fell off for the last half.
Is it weird that I am more interested in my fantasy hockey players doing well than wanting the Flyers to win? I am in four fantasy hockey leagues (3 yahoo, 1 espn). I have only ever done yahoo leagues up until this year. I am completely obsessed with the ESPN league and don't even care about the others. I don't know what it is. I can sit there all night and stare at the updating ESPN scoreboard.
It broke in half. The best part was then two players tried to play the two halves for a few seconds before the refs figured out something was wrong.
haha that's amazing. I imagine it took everyone a second or two to figure out what had happened. I love it.
My fantasy team did well tonight.

Stillman, Samuelsson, Weber, Rozsival, and Vokoun did me right. Tkachuk, well, decided to stop his goal streak.
Good ol' ECHL - it took the locals two years to work their way up to being a farm team for the AHL.
