It's Time to Officially Screw the NHL

[pax]

Who needs the bloated, cranky NHL when the minors are playing?

I'm going to see an AHL preseason game tonight. The real season starts next week. As long as my AHL boys keep playing, the NHL can stay locked out for next 5 seasons, for all I care.

i don't know.....i really really miss the nhl, i mean lately with not very good tv shows on...all i looked forward to was some hockey. some real good hockey, and it just becomes so much part of ur life...u organize ur life around it. and man come playoff time its crazy..its one thing that just unites everyone. and right now...the pubs are complaining..many ppl are bein laid off..the taxi drivers are complaining..and hey...i'm dying for nhl!!!!!!!!!! at least i got some stuff recorded so i've been watching that..hopefully they can solve this by...january.

Say, bono=, where in Canada are you? Do you ever get to see any QSPHL games? I hear those are wild.

Hockey

Guys, don't sweat it! April, you live in Michigan...there are some good college teams near where you are! You're surely not too far from an AHL/OHL/QSPHL team, are you?

Minor league hockey is usually more gritty, more personal...and CHEAPER!!!

Long Beach Ice Dogs! Home opener is Oct 22!



They really sucked last year.

i just can't find myself to care for the ahl. a good friend of mine is playing for an echl team though, in atlanta which is good for him. won't be able to watch him though.

gary bettman and bob goodenow are both losers.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

wait a minute... they still play hockey?

 

[U2Fan101]

2 thirds of ESPN writers say the lockout will be over by the start of January. They say the union will cave in, and their wives and children will start beating up on the players with their own hockey sticks demanding that they go back to work and make money instead of sitting on their butts all day and watching soaps.


The first part of that was true.

The second part of that I made up.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

there will be no NHL hockey this season

 

[stammer476]

Anyone remember the OHL's Jr. Red Wings?

i agree. the hype of the big leagues is still fun though.

pax, what is the QSPHL? ive never heard of it.

 

[JessicaAnn]

All this talk of hockey makes my head hurt.

 

[Zoomerang96]

Anyone remember the OHL's Jr. Red Wings?

bryan berard used to play for them, why?

 

[pax]

Well, come to think of it, I'm not even positive it still exists, but it WAS the Quebec Semi-Professional Hockey League. A lot of retired goons used to play there. 4-on-4 and, to my recollect, no refs.

 

[Doozer61]

The Ice Dogs are in the ECHL and I guess this year they are an affliate of the Montreal Canadiens.

 

[cujo]

hockey, I miss you.

come home.

We get the Great Lakes Invitational every year, too.

 

[popacrobat]

[Tomer]

[zoney!]

Pax...

wanna go see the Hershey Bears?

 

[pax]

Oh, wow, yesh! Or you could come up here and see the Pens!

 

[Zoomerang96]

does he by chance play for the Gwinnett Gladiators?

as a matter of fact, he does.

i'm not gonna say who though. i don't want you talking to him, and telling him you know me through the internet. he'll never be friends with me and his friendship and future million dollar contracts are worth too much for me to risk that over. sorry.

 

[zoney!]

she will never see this!

Oh, wow, yesh! Or you could come up here and see the Pens!

What Pens?

I am getting LOTS O' Tikcets to see the Bears. Had a guy "owned" by the Avs fly out on us the other day...headed to Sweden. Nice Czeck guy.
