Avalanche goalie Semyon Varlamov was arrested hours ago. He turned himself in to Denver police after a domestic violence-related incident that happened Tuesday, and is being charged with domestic violence, 2nd degree kidnapping, and 3rd degree assault.
As it happens, a friend of mine has been working on me to get NHL '14 (I do most of my games on the computer, so I'd have to get a console just for it) so I can join his league team. I'll bounce the idea off of him.
That'd be Stellar! Lemme know, Asap. Trying to have teams registered by November 15th this time around, so there's enough time to ship Jerseys, etc.
good game, in the end. not for my fantasy team, but otherwise? great game.
(i also saw the NJ score and was all "woo schneider!" before realizing it was brodeur in net. seriously? who even is that and why is he starting for the devils?)
Why does it seem like the Oilers are trying to set another league record; this time as the first team to be statistically eliminated from playoffs BEFORE the All-star break?

They were realistically eliminated after 10 games. The west is so much better than the east and the Pacific division especially. The 8th place team in the west would currently hold the top seed in the east.
And as bad as the Oilers record is, they've played pretty well over all on the season with no results. Buffalo is trending to be literally the worst team in the history of the league.

So Logan Coutre is 3-5 in the shootout this season
I was really hoping that when the inevitable management shakeup in Buffalo happened that they would have hired McGuire just to keep him from covering games. Unfortunately it didn't play out that way.
One time I was watching this womens olympic hockey game. Then a player got 2 minutes for "checking". Then I turned it off.
Don't worry, it won't be in the Olympics much longer as there are only 2 good teams in the world so it becomes a "who is going to win bronze" tournament.
Because if you're going to attempt to squeeze that big black monster into your slot you will need to be able to take at least 12 inches or else you're going to have a bad time...

I just looked this up and I'm rather shocked that the largest Canada win in the Olympics was 16-0. I'm fairly certain they put up over 100 shots just recently in an exhibition game.
Really, I'm surprised they stuck with hockey at all.
1924:
The first Olympic Winter Games are held in Chamonix, France. The Canadian hockey team wins all five of its games, outscoring opponents 110-3.
Torey Krug: Ray Bourque v2.0? Or not until Sidney puts one between his skates?
Also, can't our Canadian friends do something about the Rogers media deal? Doesn't Hockey Night In Canada have some sort of historical society protection there or something?
So TSN has all the rights to the old HNIC theme, but no hockey to show...
I don't who's more worthy of my being pissed off at, TSN or CBC.

Amazing. We get the absolute worst situation to watch hockey with all year round now.
Great job TSN, great job.
HNIC as is currently hosted on CBC is a travesty and should be destroyed. The entire CBC should be shut down. I can watch the littlest hobo reruns on youtube if I really need.

I'd imagine they'll use it for the World Juniors, the World Championships, and the Olympics. Or maybe, they could license its use back to CBC. Which won't happen.
1) Silence 2) Books must be returned by the last date shown 3) Do not interfere with the nature of causality

CBC is still better than NBC but that's not really saying anything.
One article said Rogers is also taking over running Gamecentre Live in Canada as well - so I expect that to get entirely ruined for me (and I guess everyone else). Never giving Rogers another cent, fuck that company so hard.
On the other hand, all that money is going to help the cap go up faster.
EDIT: I mean, no black-outs on Gamecentre is nice but I already have that with the XBMC plug-in, I just don't trust Rogers to not do something nefarious in addition.

Ideal world:
Bell gets the deal that Rogers got, Friedman joins the TSN broadcast and the CBC offices are broken down for scrap.

I continue to think Ryan Miller is the next to go from Buffalo.
Are the Wings really happy with Howie? If Miller's available, we may find out

The sharks literally should have won!

Video of the missed goal call here. Still heated about this, especially after tonights disaster against the Canucks.

I'm so sorry that I can't stop laughing.
Suck it Giroux.
If it's a broken tib ... 6-8 weeks, another month to rehab ... maybe he's okay for Sochi. Hope he's okay for Sochi.
Looks like a 6-9 month thing.
Ugggggh god don't look it up.
Gonna second the whole "for the love of god don't look it up please" sentiment.

Someone mentioned it reminds them of Kariya just before the nagano olympics.
Feel so bad for him. It's a joy to watch him play.

The rest of the Sharks? 0-15

I picked the worst time to do this. The outdoor rink next to my house opens in a week and I just got a sub spot for men's league.
Anyone who plays have some off ice stick drills they especially like?
