Rorer714 Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 We've got a showdown in the NHL tonight...Carolina/Washington or should I say Ovechkin. Go Canes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rorer714 Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 We blew that one at the end. The other Russian killed us tonight, Alexander Semin scored once in the final 2:40 to tie it and then with about 10 seconds left he scored again for the win.

ally Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Time to go get a big paper bag to put over my head after losing to the lowly Atlanta Thrashers in OT. Shit! Lindy should get them up early and work their ass's off. Miller couldnt stop a beach ball tonight. I just dont get it. they constantly beat the good teams and then let bad teams pull off upsets on them. I do believe they were robbed though as Vanek scored a goal that was clearly under the goalie and the big boss's in Toronto didnt give it to him because they couldnt see the puck . On to Boston tomorrow night. They took a night off Yukon. They'll be ready for the Bruins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rorer714 Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 Ah, it is you. so you like the Hurricanes and the Browns? Why not the Panthers in football? Are you a fan of the Indians in baseball? I like the Panthers as my NFC team.I was a Browns fan long before Carolina had a team. I used to live in Cleveland and I am an Indians fan too.Also lived in Massachusetts and was a Bruins/Whalers, Red Sox, Patriots fan in the early seventies as a kid. When we moved to Cleveland I got to see lots of Indians/Browns games and I became a big fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wanna be drummer Posted November 12, 2008 Author Share Posted November 12, 2008 They lost the drive? I don't think so. Hossa for sure hasn't Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spats Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 It is something that happens to teams that win the Cup the year before. Ive seen it time and time again. They get fat and happy because they won the year before. Its very hard for a coach to keep a team motivated. It is showing already. Look at many of the games they have played. Like the opener against Toronto. It happens. I can understand a player that thinks like that too. The cup is the ulimate goal in Hockey. Every player dreams of winning it. And when you do it's the greatest feeling. But after you do that what else is there??? Everything else is going to pale in comparison. You have already been to the top of the moutian and know what it looks like. Been there, done that. Now what? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ally Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 They lost the drive? I don't think so. Hossa for sure hasn't Not saying that this is what has happened to the Red Wings but they might actually be too talented. Adding Hossa may have taken away some of the fear of losing.

Like the opener against Toronto. It happens. They're 9-2 and you're going to use one game against them? Come on. They;re playing great, just had two bad games so far. They'll bounce back. Hossa is a tank, and he hasn't won it all yet so he'll be fighting even harder. I predict a repeat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ally Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Canucks lose 2-1 in a shootout. Luongo's shutout streak over, but the big news of the day is Brian Burke quitting the Ducks. Toronto next ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rorer714 Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Well I guess the Russians won this one. They are hopeless without Ovetchkin, but with him are a differant team. Your Canes are probably the only team with a remote chance of beating them out of the division title. I dont think it will happen personally. But I think Barry Melrose will soon wish he were broadcasting. Semin almost singlehandedly kicked our ass with 2 goals and 3 assists Ovechkin had 1 goal and 2 assists.It's probably a good thing Fedorov was out. Our offense isn't up to speed yet and needs to get rolling already.Our defense made some bad mistakes and you can't do that against those boys.

ally Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 They are playing surprizingly well. I thought they would because Wilson is a good coach. But the Cup thing is a bit of a stretch. I am surprized Montreal got beat so bad at Boston. The Sabres will have a say in all of it. Colombus in town tonight. Cant take them lightly or we will get beat. I dont know what it is but the Sabres play better on the road. I think alot of teams do. Perhaps they dont get a fancy on the road and are more focused. No distractions off ice and such. I think Boston is a whole lot better than we thought. They had a great road trip in the west recently and looked really solid. I'm starting to believe they could be a real contender in the east Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No distractions off ice and such. The cup is not coming to Toronto anytime soon. This early in the season means nothing. When teams figure the leafs out it will be back to normal. There will not be any postive moves to bring a cup to Toronto until the fans stop going to the games. Then changes will be made. But Toronto fans blindly support them so as long as they are making lots of money nothing will change. The fans need to wake up.

I am not being negative just for the hell of it. 1. I am grown up for the most part. If caring about looks is "immature" then that i would be the only thing that can be called "immature" about me. 2. I say positive things when they are warranted. 3. If i get respect then i give. One has to earn respect. You don't just hand over respect because of one's gender.
