NHL 2008-09

[BoMac]

ah yes, the taunting... I missed Hockey season...

Hey, I was (mostly) quiet during the summer.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

I just hope you don't crush us on Saturday... A one-goal loss is honorable at least...

 

[speedracer]

Epic fail

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

what the fuck? is that Vince Neil?

 

[UberBeaver]

HAHA. Is that Def Leppard?

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

who ever the hell it is, they are obviously a tool...

 

[Screwtape2]

That Boston-Colorado game last night was amazing.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

who won?

 

[Screwtape2]

who won?

Boston 5-4. Both teams kept matching each other goal for goal.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

I like those type of games...

One sided affairs can be boring... Unless your team is winning, which sadly, is not something I'm very used to...

 

[Screwtape2]

Epic fail

I saw that live on Versus and was speechless.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

can you tell us who it is?

 

[UberBeaver]

Def Leppard's Joe Elliott redefined the concept of embarrassment during one of their NHL Face-Off Rocks segments at the Fox Theater in Detroit. This is what you get for booking a band from England: Drive on the wrong side of the road, place the holiest of holy hockey grails on a pedestal upside down.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

thank you... what an idiot...

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

I seriously wanted to punch one of the tvs at the bar I was at last night when that happened. I'm shocked there wasn't a huge surge from the crowds to do the same.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

you should move across the border... I think we may have to go to war with England over this...

 

[UberBeaver]

You gotta squeeze a little, squeeze a little
Tease a little more
Easy operator come a knockin' on my door
Sometime, anytime, sugar me sweet
Little miss innocent sugar me, yeah

Take a bottle, shake it up
Break the bubble, break it up

Pour some sugar on me

i bet he knows which way to put the sugar bowl down when he's done pouring it...

Well, the Leafs won the first game of the season.

Now they'll likely lose the rest. But it's okay.

It's okay.

 

[ladywithspinninghead]

As an ardent Habs supporter and feel-sorry-for-the-Leafs fan, I'm kind of glad the Habs lost and the Leafs won - in one instance, the expectations for this season were too high and in the other the expectations were too low.

But I've no doubt the Canadiens will win tonight though

(I loved the Toronto Sun's facetious - I'm assuming it was facetious but wouldn't put anything past the T.O. media - headlines yesterday : "Start the Parade")

 

[senrab]

Nice game, Habbers

 

[Screwtape2]

It seems like the majority of people here are Montreal fans, is that correct?

 

[ladywithspinninghead]

It seems like the majority of people here are Montreal fans, is that correct?

Hmm, I don't know - I think there's a lot of Leaf fans - I mean you have to include those too embarrassed to admit it

There's a lot of talk about Montreal this year because it's their 100th anniversary and they finished top of the Eastern Conference last year so there are lots of expectations placed on them.
They're also the last Canadian team to win the Cup...

I don't think Montreal has as many haters as the Leafs or Sens for example - most people have, I think, a begrudging respect for them and their history..

 

[GibsonGirl]

Oh, Toronto, you make me laugh.

Great game so far. Montreal's top lines are on fire. Bring on the third!

 

[GibsonGirl]

I just hope you don't crush us on Saturday... A one-goal loss is honorable at least...

 

[No spoken words]

There are two Islander fans in here...myself, and Uberbeaver.

 

[snowbunny00774]

Now they'll likely lose the rest. But it's okay.

It's okay.

So.....this was your fault.








What a fucking disgrace

 

[Screwtape2]

Random observation but Minnesota's uniforms look like Christmas apparel.

These Boston games are fantastic.

 

[UberBeaver]

If the Islanders play all season like they did tonight, they will not finish 30th out of 30. FACT.
