Around the NHL (Part XVI) - Goodbye, CapGeek

[Nothingman*]

In other news, the All Star game jerseys are absolutely hideous. I seriously don't know how they could have made them worse.

Looks like a motocross jersey. Total trash.

Dale traded C Drew Shore to Calgary for C Corban Knight

Knight was drafted by Panthers in 09 and refused to sign so they traded his rights to Calgary for a 4th round pick in 2013

WTH Dale

 

[Hawkaholic]

Yeah, and along with a few others, and usually ex-Hawks. It's rather sickening.

The only reason I point out the Pirri and Stalberg thing is because some of you thought Q should give them a better role because they are better players than what Q is giving them credit for, yet they aren't.

They were both borderline NHL talent, who deserved to be on the 4th line/healthy scratches/traded/not re-signed.

Those 2 are really the only ex-Hawks I rag on. I typically like the rest of them.

??? Why would he trade for Knight, when Shore probably has much more potential. Both are C's, are they not?

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Panther fans not happy with this trade and are just as confused as everyone else

And yeah I like Shore as a potential 3rd line C in NHL and don't think much of Knight

Kayes got a ton of flack

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Shore is a nice piece. He from Alberta?

 

[Canadian Wampa]

Dale must be drunk or something.

 

[UsernameWasTaken]

I don't even understand the trade.

Maybe I need to follow the teams more or something?

 

[OhCaptainMyCaptain]

Those All-Star uniforms are ugly as hell. It's like a Monster Energy motorcross shindig, NHL style.

 

[Crazy_Ike]

Very irritating night on the scoreboards, don't even want to think about hockey now until the foul taste has washed away.

That whole trade kind of reminds me of a very odd scenario where an ex- and I had a bad breakup, a few months later while we're both dating someone else, she suggested a double date, and it somehow happened, and then during that said double date she kept trying to very "subtly" set up her date with my date and then hitting on me.

It was a very odd night, and that's a very odd trade. He's/I'm just not that in to you, Dale/[name redacted].

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

...you really went through with that proposition?

 

[OhCaptainMyCaptain]

Hahaha that story tho

 

[No Fun Shogun]

...you really went through with that proposition?

Eh, small liberal arts college in a podunk town. Not many watering spots, really, so it just sort of did somehow.

Also, I drank way more back then than I do now, so not the wisest of kids.

My date and I very quickly excused ourselves at the earliest convenient time, though.

So it was all a part of some marvelous plan of yours

It's not her/Dale's fault that you/Corban Knight is so irresistible.

Paint ball jersey is literally the first thing I thought of.

Lol that and motocross

Well they could have incorporated some camo or pink fur around the bottom of the jersey. That would be worse. But that's pretty much the only way.

I just want to know if the black and white stripes from the armpit to the inside of the elbow signifies the all-star game won't have refs and they'll call their own penalties by raising their arm and showing the stripes side of the jersey.

 

[OhCaptainMyCaptain]

Watching Michigan-Minnesota on BTN right now. Don't see college hockey on TV a ton, actually has a pretty fun pace to it.

 

[Hawkaholic]

Kayes got a ton of flack

In my eyes he was never a Hawk, never signed a contract, never played a game. **** Kayes.

Yeah, I'm sure that's how the story really ended.

 

[IU Hawks fan]

With the ASG jerseys, I feel like since the NHL is the only deal Reebok has it's their only way to make a statement and try to keep up with Nike and UA.

 

[madgoat33]

That thing is awful. Has ref stripes on inside of sleeve too? Whoever designed that should be shot

 

[OhCaptainMyCaptain]

Does anyone know of any good NHL radio shows that I can listen to on my phone?
