Nice Try, Nogoalov

I'm a huge Sens fan but this is just too funny! http://eod.liquidviewer.com/wgr-od/wgr/20070507_ottawa.wma

Is anyone else thoroughly annoyed with this late season push? I mean, it's great that they're playing well, but all they're doing is playing themselves out of a good draft pick (unless of course NYI are willing to trade their number 1 pick for Jason Spezza). I can't decide whether I even want...

Seems the natives are getting restless so lets see who you think will (not should) be the first Senator to be traded. Your choices are: Spezza; Phillips; Vermette; Schubert; someone else. Just had a look at the NHL web site and was surprised to see how poorly The Sens are playing. Only 5 players in...

No, this isn't about horse racing. Rather, I'm speaking of the outstanding results in Saturday's sporting events, at least for this fan. The Sens aced the Leafs 3-0. The Canadiens, with the able assistance of Carey "good thing he wasn't traded" Price, humbled the Sabres 3-1. And last, but not...

Who wants to own 30 NHL franchises? I'm waiting for the e-bay auction. http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/news_story.asp?id=116886

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...

Another one gone so young... :( http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=386386

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qIe9O529MR0&feature=player_embedded i remember when i used to play racing games on my NDS and thought, wow they sure have come a log way lol

Although not hockey related it very well could be! Read more

If you haven't heard, the Bruins have traded Joe Thornton to San Jose, in exchange for Marco Sturm, Wayne Primeau, and Brad Stuart. Boston saves 1.6 million in cap room. What do you think? Personally, I think Boston has gotten a much better deal than people seem to be giving them credit...

how about this interview, a little bit homophobic ya think http://tsn.ca/nba/news_story/?ID=196316&hubname=

I sincerely hope that this holiday season (regardless of your faith, or absence thereof) finds you and your family in the best of spirits, and most importantly, full of joy and love. With thought to love, we can accomplish what governments cannot, which is rebuilding humanity. It's the solution...

Tom Brady won the Associated Press NFL MVP award after being nominated first on 49 of 50 ballots. http://www.boston.com/sports/football/patriots/articles/2008/01/06/brady_cruises_to_mvp_award/

for the rest of the season. Thats what you get for running up the score last season punk!

After watching the Nashville Dallas game the other night, and not to mention all of the sportsnews orgs are talking about it, I think the NHL made 2 decisions that were correct but got 1 wrong in the worst sense. Tootoo got 5 games for protecting himself, don’t kid yourself either because...

Wondering how many footie fans here, especially BPL followers. So to start a thread for predictions Mine 1. EPL Title - Chelsea 2. FA Cup - Manchester City 3. Carling Cup - Manchester United 4. Top Goal Scorer - Drogba 5. Champions League - Real Madrid (Liverpool losing finalist)

Top 5 teams in the league? 1-Philly 2-Sens 3-Sharks 4-Tampa Bay 5-Calgary What’s your take?

Is there gonna be some hockey for the Olympic winter games?

http://m.ctv.ca/topstories/20110619/ESPN-Toronto-rankings-110619.html Can't say I'm surprised. Full results here: http://espn.go.com/sportsnation/teamrankings

John Ferguson Jr Finally gone!! Fletcher as their interim general manager. http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/news_story/?ID=227906&hubname= http://slam.canoe.ca/Slam/Hockey/NHL/Toronto/2008/01/22/4786917-cp.html

Dont kill the messenger.:-) January 15 vs. Bloomington Jr. High School Girls 22 vs. Cub Scout Troop #101 29 vs. CNIB Senior Team February 5 vs. Spanish-American War Vets 12 vs. Crippled Children's Hospital

So, I was on tsn.ca a few minutes ago, and sure enough, the lead story is about the Leafs. Nothing exciting, really..here it is: http://tsn.ca/nhl/news_story/?ID=227520&hubname= So then I realized that in the entire article, there's not a single mention of the fact that the Leafs actually...

slow motion at 0:43....... http://www.nhlwheelofjustice.com/ No suspension, this was a hockey play. :shhh:

After watching the replay of the Torres/Williams hit during last nights game in Detroit I bet Grapes is going to bring up the shoulder pad issue again on Coaches Corner. Good clean hit and Williams was down on the ice in a matter of seconds. The report this morning was he was not knocked out, but...

I may be in the minority here but I'll go with most total medals.

I love this section of the forum, there's only so much golf talk I can take, and I don't know how good this thread is, but who do you think was the toughest athlete? I would have to say Rocky Marciano...never got knocked down

Ottawa just signed Kuba to a 3 year deal. (3.7 million per)

Here is one for you, trade Spezza and Emery to the Ducks for Getzlaf straight up. UHMMM< we might have to send a defenseman as well to take care of all of the giveaways that Spezz will cough up. So let's make it Spezza, Emery, Mezaros for Getzlaf. Even if Mez is a free agent it would be a good...

I just read on TSN.ca that Chris Neil's mother died in a tragic car accident north of Toronto yesterday. My thoughts go out to him and his family. Even as a Leafs fan I have a lot of respect for Chris Neil and the way he plays the game. Sad news.

no google Of all the players who have never won a scoring tittle, i lead league in points scored. who am i??? who was the first player in the NHL to score more than 50 goals in a season Who was the last defenseman to score over 100 points?

I know, they aren't the USSR anymore, and does that also take some of the lustre away from this most recent installment of Canada vs. Russia? In '72 they had a much bigger pool to draw from to make it a much more memorable series and more impressive win for Canada. Granted, I wasn't around but...

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...

Even though I'm a Leafs fan, I think it's disgraceful that Tucker got off with just a $2500 fine for the helmet swinging incident against the Devils. Should have been at least 2 games. I guess Colin Campbell didn't get new gonads for Christmas. :rolleyes

Why is it that all of the Sens games are blacked out in and around Toronto? I would have thought that the market her would seek to "encourage" fans to watch the Leafs live. What possible market reason is there for denying viewers in this area access to the Sens? I don't get it.

Two games in a row the Sens come out flat in the third period, blow a lead and end up losing. Where's the motivation to finish a team off. Brutal, just brutal. Not a good habit to get into with the playoffs just around the corner. :thumbsdow :rolleyes Maybe some veteran leadership would help???

Any MMA fans in there? Last night's fight between Hendo and Shogun was easily one of the best fights of all-time - WOW!

any predictions on Bisping-Evens tonight? I hope Evens beats Bisping. He should have lost his last fight with Matt Hamil in Eng, but now thats it in the US it should be a little more fairly judged! Evens KO 2nd

did anyone else read the ufc fighters column in the ottawa sun today on chuck liddell. I found that very interesting how many of those guys as oppose to boxing actually had a potiential career other than fighting.

If your bored with normal TV and are looking for something a little different to watch on Saturday night , The UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) has a steller fight card on PPV this coming weekend. If you don`t mind A bit of violence and some mixed matial arts , you gota see this sport to...

There are some awesome UFC fights coming up and I am excited. Here are a couple of videos to get the ball rolling: Destruction, by Anderson Silva: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aF2vijb2Paw&feature=player_embedded# Georges St. Pimp: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hIa5hr4QZOc

Once again , the UFC is showing a their latest PPV this evening (10 est) .:-) The show will star 2 Canadians , Patrick Cote and Georges St.Pierre:Canadian This will be a stellar show throughout and for anyone who has not seen this type of sport before , tune in and you will not be...

Personally I am very excited. The card has plenty of greay fight, with the GSP fight being the main attraction for me. I think frank Mir will lose to Lesnar GSP will submit Alves and bisping will beat Henderson. Your thoughts?

I still can't believe what I saw. GSP got beat down pretty hard by Serra. He looked tense and slipped a couple of time, leading to Serra's first hard punch and from that point on, it avalanched on GSP. :fight: :rolleyes Serra is a nice guy, but I was rooting for GSP. :( And while on that...

What a strange draft this is going to be... Not a very strong draft to begin with... You have top prospects who have had knee surgeries, concussions, mono etc... You have more and more questions surrounding drafting Russians with top picks... You might have more teams willing to drop down in...

Was looking forward to watching Federer play this morning before the Canada Day festivities, but NOOOOO, NBC has the rights to the match and will play it on TAPE DELAY later. :hissyfit: TSN is showing other matches instead of the best player of all time. Lovely. :rolleyes
