Go Sid and Mario!!! LMFAO.... Go Heatley! WOOHOO! LOL.... Dan PS - With new instigator rules, Dan Kilbank's gonna throw me outta the game... :) :fight:

So the names are out what does everyone think? http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/feature/?fid=8747&hubname= Me, I think that not having 2 of the top scorers in the league on the team is a joke!!! Spezza and Staal shold be there. I would have taken pezza just because him and Heatley have so much...

Who's in one, and who did you pick ... No surprises in the 1st game, but it was nice to see Germany drop in 4 goals that's a lot of points for my pools, got off too a great start in 3/4 pools I entered with that game. :D

If anyone does, I'm in. I prefer snake drafts because I can put my hockey smarts to use... but I'm to lazy to set it up

Anyone else see Domi on the 2 hour NHL Season Preview special on TSN last night? I thought he was a pretty good speaker, had a good knowledge of the teams and players and did a damned good job at all the ribbing he was taking from the rest of the panel :thumbsup

I can't beleive it!! Alexander Ovechkin in a charity golf tourney, borrowed some clubs as this was his first ever game of golf, looks like he fans on a couple of swings at the ball, hits it on the 3rd swing, and GETS A HOLE IN ONE!!! UnBelievable....I wonder if he's going to take up the game now.

The big "owe" in Montreal is finnaly paid off today...30 years later:laughing:

I went to bed at half time thinking that Boise State had this game in the bag but couldn't sleep...got up and watched the final 4 minutes and I think it was the most exciting few minutes of football I've ever watched...change of scores, trick plays...winning on a 2 point conversion. Anyone else...

what is more impressive. Two starting QB's in the NFL both taken 1st overall???? OR 4 brothers playing in the NHL all taken in the first round? I have to go with the manning boys, they were both taken 1st over all. None of the staal boys were taken first over all. But then again there...

Here's to the memories spent in that lower deck. :thumbsup My dad must be rolling in his grave at the thought of if being blown up. He was one of the first to sit in that lower deck when it was built. I was almost raised there throughout my childhood as my parents were die-hard Rider fans. He...

IMO an excellent coach is only as good as the players he is handed out. So in your opinion who is the best NHL coach and why?

Anyone know why the Canadian national anthem was sung at the Buff/NYI game tonight????

Now that the season is over, let's get to the serious stuff. :P :lmfao Who are your picks for the annual awards? My picks will be bolded. Hart Crosby Brodeur Luongo

I'm sure there is some baseball fans on here. And just browsing through the stats today, and from listening to baseball talk over the last couple of days, I was just wondering who everyone's choices are for MVP in the AL and NL. In the NL: For me, if the Phillies get in, its probably...

I just heard them say on TV that if everything remains the same, NE gets SFs pick this year and will pick 2nd overall! Its safe to say they won't be taking a QB. What does that team need?

I saw this topic on another forum, and although it's two years away, let's hear who you think will be on the 2010 Canadian Olympic hockey team. Shoe-ins and maybes, let's hear them. (Bold are sure picks) Goalies: This could be interesting. Personally, I think Brodeur will be gone before...

That did not take the nhl long to deal with.What do you this about this.I quess it pays to be the best goalie. It is considered an interpretation of Rule 75, concerning goaltender interference. "An unsportsmanlike conduct minor penalty (Rule 75) will be interpreted and applied, effective...

I'm desperate, one of my guys just had to bail. We are playing in the Sensplex league. Cost is $388 per player. You get about 25 games including playoffs. It's a really well run league and we've got a team with a bunch of good guys. Looking for someone that's played a decent level of hockey (high...

this has to be the biggest insult to a team... apparently losing to the leafs is the final straw for teams that are struggling. After the leafs beat the Penguins the coach gets fired and now the same In NYC. I guess GM's can stand losing 9 of 11, but when that 10th loss in 12 comes at the hands...

In exchange for pleading guilty to a reduced weapon's charge, Plaxico Burress was sentenced to 2 years in jail. Maybe he too will make a comeback when he's released. If this keeps up, one might come to the conclusion that "NFL" means "National Felons' League."

Holy Crap

I was reading an article on TSN about Jr Hockey... http://tsn.ca/world_jrs/story/?id=302354 The hard-hitting Regina Pats defenceman is expected to anchor the right side of Canada's shutdown pair at the world junior hockey championship, likely with Val d'Or Foureur Marco Scandella, a...

i'm just gonna post all my funny sports vids in here, i end up starting to many threads http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-azgWTq3_dU

Whether you are a Sens fan or not, it is a major accomplishment to play 1000 games in NHL, let alone for one team. Drafted 133rd overall in the 6th round of the 1994 draft, he has been the best player of that draft and continues to produce, even at his age. Way to go! Drafted in the first...

hi i am enjoying the free preview of centre ice with rogers right now, and thinking of getting the package, but from what i see, is it all in SD? not in HD? like the game tonight i am watching on CH 455 and it is in SD, is this always the case? or is it about the feed they can get? i don;t see...

5 minute major and match penalty for this??? When your name is Todd Bertuzzi, yes.

Not sure who saw the Habs v Lightning game on Tuesday night, but here is the recap... Ryan Malone hit Alexei Emelin slightly from behind into the glass and Emelin was not happy. A few minutes later, Emelin (who is much smaller) hit Malone in the middle of the ice with a HARD check, face to...

just heard on TSN...still looking for the $ amount.

Yes, the Habs told Gomez to stay home. He will get paid this year and the Habs will buy out his contract this summer...

I was looking at the Sens schedule for the season, why does Ottawa get stuck with so many games starting in the afternoons on weekends, and the Leafs I believe have one game, besides the Jan 1, 2014 game outdoors. I believe Montreal has 7 games. I believe Ottawa has 15 or 16 games that start...

I need to take 9 forwards, it can be anyone so far I have F-Ilya Kovalchuk F-Jarome Iginla F-Rick Nash F-Marian Hossa F-Jaromir Jagr F-Pavel Datsyuk

Alright all you Hockey Fans, It's up and ready. Colby has kindly set up another pool on the NCGT site, for us all to enjoy and follow. If you are into Hockey Pools this is for you. This pool is open to everyone. So join today! I will throw in a box of balls as a prize but this is mainly for...

Second period of Game 6 in Philly and the Sabres are taking it to the Flyers big time :laughing: The Flyers look like a JR B team tonight. :-) The old saying is standing up in this series SPEED KILLS :)

Entertaining, yes, but has anyone ever seen such a terrible defensive display? The Sens picked the absolute WORST time to come up with the most gut wrenching, vomit inducing defensive effort of the season. I mean honestly, that was just horrendous defending. No team in the NHL should be giving...

I'm curious about all the 'haters' of the various teams around the league. We seem to be polarized in our thought process. I am of the opinion it is not the team we actually hate, but the fans of that particular team or a coach or a player, but not the entire team. I will give you an example. ...

Did you guys see the moves on those kids yesterday? I think Pits fans are in for another Lemieux/Jagr era. They could potentially be the best duo in the NHL this season if Malkin gets to play after all the legal stuff is done with. Mike

Vote it!

You heard it here first! As of now, my favorites for the Super Bowl are Dallas and San Diego, followed by New England, Denver, and Chicago - in that order. I never liked the Tuna, but I have grown into a grudging respect for him. He truly "gets it". He is my coach of the year. He has quietly...

Just learned in the office... A buddy of mine has one of his daughters working at GolfTown in Kanata. Apparently Martin Gerber was recently seen shopping for golf clubs. -- This can't be good for us Senator fans... :wallbash Cheers, Don

Lets say the islanders beat PHI tomorrow at 1pm And then the leafs beat MTL in regulation at 7pm Does NJ win the game against the Islanders so BUF has to play TOR??? Or do they lose the game so BUF has to play the NYI? If MTL loses the game in OT does NJ lose the game so BUF plays NYI or win...

This afternoon half of Canada and dozens of Americans will tune into the Sens/Buffalo game. The NHL has sold out to the American networks. So if you see a poll that asks if you watched the game, say no, even though you did watch. If the NHL thinks it's losing viewers and therefore money, they may...

Keenan to Calgary.:rolleyes How about that?

HOT OFF THE PRESS RIGHT HERE BOYS THE LEAFS HAVE MADE SOME MAJOR CHANGES IN THEIR LINEUP. THEY ARE A CONTENDER NOW! PLAN THE PARADE ROUTE IN THE CENTER OF THE UNIVERSE! CHECK IT OUT!

As I watched the Pats fight back to tie the Jets last night only to lose in overtime, it struck me that the outcome of the game was really determined by the toss of a coin. My gut tells me (I admit that I could be wrong) that the team who receives the ball first in overtime, wins the highest...

Are there any EA Sports NHL 10 players out there who would be interested in starting up an online league for the PS3?? Shout out. My PS3 nickname is Toxis

Let's take a stab at what Clousten will throw out as his top 3 forward lines??
