Miscellaneous NHL Discussion: 2016/17 Playoffs

[TCTC]

This this this. He is the absolute worst ref in the NHL.

There's no way he was going to overturn his own call, even though he was clearly wrong.

Yep, you just knew he wouldn't overturn it. Especially since it was challenged.

Maybe its because I didnt read the book, but I really liked the movie High Fidelity lol

I love the book and the movie. One of my favorite movies ever.

That awful no-goal call could end up looming large. Refs doing what they can for the Leafs.

Surprisingly TJ Luxmore & Francis Charron might be worse. Neither of the two are reffing in the playoffs fortunately.

 

[Rebels57]

Chris Lee has no friends. Proven fact.

 

[Rebels57]

Oshie with the Laffs fans having the time of their lives! Haha I love it.

I don't know if you have read "Hi Fidelity" by Nick Hornby (or saw the relatively awful film adaptation), but I am more or less like that guy - I'd agonize for months over that list, because it's full to bursting. I'm dead to you though lol because Chelios is nowhere near it. The initial list, the ones making the first cut, would probably be something like:

Gretzky
Messier
Lemieux
****ing Glen Anderson
****ing Esa Tikkanen
Fuhr
St. Louis Blues #16 Butt Hole
Bernie Federko
Dale Hunter
Denis Potvin
Paul Coffey
****ing Crosby
The 1991 Minnesota Choke Stars
The guy in charge of electricity in Boston Garden in 1988
Kevin ****ing Lowe

... I'm too angry to type any more lol ... but there are more.

EDIT: ****ing Barnaby

I have read it! Very good book. But I need to know how someone hates Bernie Federko. He's the most harmless good-but-not-great player that comes to mind.

 

[Domino666]

yasssssssss go **** yourself Toronto

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Lulz. Awful goal.

Yeah, it was fine, really - it's just that the book is one of my favorites, so I'm a bit sensitive about it haha.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

The ref just stared down Kuznetsov boarding somebody.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Playoff hockey is great but it's hilarious how much obvious crap they let go and how everything has to be "even."

 

[Rebels57]

The ref just stared down Kuznetsov boarding somebody.

Probably turned at last second. They usually let it go in that case.

I would add Bob Nystrom and Clark Gillies I hated that team

I have read it! Very good book. But I need to know how someone hates Bernie Federko. He's the most non-descript good-but-not-great player that comes to mind.

I'm a St. Louis native who loathes the Blues, and he doesn't in any way, shape or form belong in the Hall of Fame, which is bad enough. But what's worse is the way he says the word "Blues" (he's their Bill Clement in the studio) - it is a combination of "blouse" "blows" and "blues" and is wrapped in this deep phlegmatic miasma - phlegmatic not in the "Four Humors" sense, but in the "I have the flu, but I just drank 11 Busch beers and I'm about to talk with all this phlegm in my mouth" sense, if that makes any sense, and I know it doesn't, but is accurate nonetheless.

Yeah, they can definitely go **** themselves, too.

 

[Domino666]

Matthews looks like Jack White's strung out younger brother

 

[FLYguy3911]

McAvoy just got Karlsson'd. What a pass.

Jamie Benn has always been the one reminding me of Jack White.

 

[Rebels57]

Two words to explain why the Caps wont win the Cup:

Brooks Orpik

 

[TCTC]

Lol Trotz's face. He looked like he wanted to murder that ref.

 

[Rebels57]

Oshie with a heroic effort tonight

 

[JojoTheWhale]

McAvoy just got Karlsson'd. What a pass.

Non-Flyers fun rankings:

1. Karlsson
2. McDavid
3. Burns
4. Gaudreau
5. Tarasenko

 

[MacDonald4MVP]

Sens and Bruins, two most undeserving teams to make the playoffs.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Close to 1,000,
