I seem to manage in Wyoming.

Are you from Hobbiton?

Get ****ed Sacco

f***ing LOL. Go f*** yourself Joe Sacco. I hope you rot in the pit where all horrible coaches go to die.

Hey! Without Sacco, our picks wouldn't have been so high haha

 

[henchman21]

Was... I was .75" too tall, so I got kicked out.

 

[Ararana]

Maybe Mack will be able to get Crosby to talk to him tonight

 

[forsbergavs32]

I swear, Joe Sacco’s tombstone is going to read “They didn’t start the game on time”

Are you from Lost Springs?

Are you from Lost Springs?

Hey there is a massive population boom happening there! 300% at the last census!

 

[Foppberg]

Nice.

"City" being generous

 

[UncleRisto]

Hey there is a massive population boom happening there! 300% at the last census!

I like the stats that Wikipedia has up about that census:

The racial makeup of the town was 100.0% White.
There were 3 households of which 100.0% were non-families. 66.7% of all households were made up of individuals. The average household size was 1.33.
The median age in the town was 59.5 years. 100% of residents were between the ages of 45 to 64. The gender makeup of the town was 50.0% male and 50.0% female.

They read like elementary school math problems.

That is the most shocking part of the census

ROR will score against us for sure. Hoping it won't be a classic letdown game.

 

[ASmileyFace]

STL feels like the most obvious let down game. ROR never plays bad against us and after two big emotional wins it could be easy to come into Friday a little relaxed. I have faith in Bednar keeping us from starting slow tomorrow.

Get ****ed Sacco

I think this got taken out of context and was just a joke by Mars/Evan. If you scroll up on the actual article NHL.com gives credit to Kevin Weekes, not Sacco.

 

[RoyIsALegend]

I know they're having a bad year, but ROR is having such a monster of a season so far.

12 goals (1st)
15 assists (1st)
27 points (1st, Tarasenko 2nd with 19)
+6 (1st, next 6 top scorers all vary from -5 to -9)
9 PPP (1st)
20:21 ATOI (1st amongst forwards, Tarasenko 2nd at 18:38 almost 2 less minutes per game)
62.5 faceoff percentage (1st, Bozak 2nd with 55%, ROR is 1st in the whole NHL)
16 takeaways (1st, Pietrangelo 2nd with 11, ROR is 5th in the whole NHL[Stone is 3rd ])

He's been amazing this year, the only shining light for this Blues team so far.

Imagine this guy as our 2C... ugh.

Those numbers are great. The team sucks.

I will take the avs without him

ROR has always been great. He just has TERRIBLE timing when he signs with teams lol

 

[Tralfamadore]

Have the Avs even been a come back team this year? I feel like I see more close call blown leads in the 3rd than come backs.

Even if the team has had a lot of come backs they've been playing so many road games it doesn't really matter.

 

[The Abusement Park]

Or is he part of why those teams suck? That I don’t know for sure... but there’s no way this blues team is this bad.

 

[Foppberg]

 

[henchman21]

Makes me think Barrie will be out a bit...

 

[AvsFan29]

But why? Barrie injury worse than expected? Barrie traded for Nylander? Lol

 

[Foppberg]

Same. Although Z and Girard have stepped up well so I'm not super concerned.

 

[The Kingslayer]

f***in why? Ctrl+Alt+Delete this guy he sucks.
