2017-18 Around the League | Congratulations Washington Capitals!

[Da McBomb]

Feels dirty cheering a Kesler goal

 

[Supermassive]

Oh well. All the Cali teams are hot, and Calgary is on the outside looking in. Go Knights Go.

 

[TB12]

Kesler had Larkin in a chokehold with his stick at center ice, and held it for about ten seconds until Mantha summoned the courage to fight him. Not a single thought from the refs as to a penalty. Refs love this team.

Well, what would they tell Corey?

 

[Ritchie Valens]

Selke trophy nominee Mikael Backlund is -3 tonight and -15 on the season

And soon to be $32 million dollars richer.

 

[VainGretzky]

That top 3 defence in the league never fails year after year







to finish bottom of the league

 

[North]

Funny, their fans say the exact same thing about the Oilers.

Not the only thing their fans are wrong about.

 

[GodPucker]

For anybody here who was watching the Oilers since the early 90's...

Man I would love somebody to "Boris Mirinov" Kesler.

Man, I loved BoBo.

 

[GodPucker]

I still remember a game against the Leafs where I think Weight got point 100 or 104

Suicide Center ice pass to a Leaf. Mirinov absolutely destroys the Leaf.

 

[GodPucker]

It as Dave Gagner he crushed. Think he concussed him.

 

[Haggard]

This one?

 

[harpoon]

Gems from the cowtown radio show tonight.

'If we throw out the third period, I think the Flames were the better team for about 11 1/2 minutes and the Sharks for about 8 1/2.' (Uhh ... what about the other twenty minutes).

'Sharks scored seven but didn't play that well. Other than Kane, Pavelski was the only guy I really noticed'.

'Martin Jones looked shaky for most of the game' (said while making 1000 excuse for Smith including he must be tired from shutting out the Oilers).

'I think Johnny is really growing into the type of player who fights through the hacks and whacks. Early in his career he would look to the refs and expect a call. Now he just fights through it and makes great plays.'

Now talking about signing Kovalchuk on a one year 'incentive based' $2 million deal.

 

[TB12]

@harpoon I listened to FAN 960 tonight to bask in the Flames loss, too, because I'm petty and not really a great guy

Could NOT believe what I heard from Loubardias and the boys...to add to what you posted:

"Johnny is a guy that really hates to lose. Like hates it so much."

"I believe they will sweep or split (this roadtrip) and (that homestand) and (other roadtrip)....and once the drunk fans put down their half full beers and wake up tomorrow they'll realize the Flames are in a good spot."

"Fully expect them to shut out Vegas on Sunday"

"Mike Smith not at fault tonight. Flames were the better team for much of the evening."

It was HILARIOUS and their fans just lap this stuff up. It's an actual bizarro world down in Shelbyville.

I listened to 960's post-game show last year when the Flames finished getting swept and Loubardias was predicting the team would be playing in June a few times in the near future. They're delusional af down there.

One of Sather's robbery man I miss the days of Gm winning most trades we got Matt Lindgren Boris Mironov 1st round 4th overall pick in 94 draft , to bad it was Jason Boinsignore and another 4th rnd pick. We gave up Dave Manson and a 6th . A chia trade in reverse

 

[Oilers Propagandist]

If Lil Jhonny isn't setting up Monohan, that guy is a complete ghost. He creates nothing for a C. I have not even noticed Monohan tonight.

 

[syz]

How entirely, supremely f***ing predictable. Called it as soon as Smith shut the Oilers out; knew he'd just go out and get blown out again to balance out the universe.

 

[Oilers Propagandist]

Leafsnet is always reaching to make things look better than they are. Without bothering, one of the other or both are not tops in their respective leagues lol.

Would be crazy if Sather came back to gm the Oilers to a cup, sure OBC but he aight.

 

[Todd from Leduc]

No playoffs for the Flametards and they traded their 1st rounder. Their failure is even worse than ours in my opinion, they actually had a decently balanced team but their coach threw it away. Gulootsun is the only coach I wouldn’t trade TMac for.

Oh hell yeah. No amount of meds is helping the group I was listening to last night.
My only disappointment was that I didn't get to hear any callers ... don't they do callers?

View attachment 105275

that's driven by the raptors though, lol

but the Leafs are doing pretty decent

Not too long ago, both were pretty bad so it's nice for them

This is 99.9% BS. I listened to the exact same radio show and everything you stated after the Johnny comment is an outright lie.

They did callers around midnight or so. Was just a massive amount of hilariousness.
