Don't sit below the glass - I find row 12-20 centre ice is where it's at

Terrible performance today, could of played another 2 hours today and not scored against a side that gives up goals for fun. Orlov with 2 shocking turnovers to gift them goals in the final period. Once again we were poor after a long break, if we ever get 3 or more days rest put your house in a Caps loss. Islanders take out the Pens and Caps on back to back days and have about 10 of their next 12 at home

Looking at tonight's attendance in Riot City one will be able to sit wherever one likes.

Must be the traffic...

Which is the best podcast to listen to

Which is the best podcast to listen to

Anything with Jeff Marek. He's the best around.

The PDOcast is very good if you are into the statistical side of the game.

The PuckPodcast is good (very thorough and sometimes amusing) they can be a bit clueless at times. They are Californian and have a strange phobia about Canada.

PuckSoup is s**t.

I sometimes listen to HockeyCentral at Noon to have a laugh at Kyprios and MacLean and the Chronno media.

The last time the Habs beat the Charks in South San Fran Trevor Linden was a Hab and Mike Vernon was still trying to stop pucks!

 

[PalaceGun]

A new 2nd line centre would be nice. Who is out there that could be gotten?

Captain Obvious at the Gazette has found one!

Habs would have to give up everything in the farm system to get him

Not really, his contract runs out next season and he'll be a UFA.
He'll be getting a big increase in pay for his next contract.
One or two roster players, 1 or 2 first round picks and 1 or 2 top prospects. Choose that combination based on how good the roster player(s) is/are.
If he's not re-signing with the Islanders they'll want to trade him this season rather than next. They'd get a less better deal next season or maybe nothing.

Lost in the SO to the Bolts today and were ordinary again. Don't think it's any coincidence that our loss of form has happened whilst Oshie has been missing. Need him back ASAP

 

[Great8]

Islanders on a bit of a roll, have beaten the Pens, Caps and Rags in the space of less than a week

 

[scottyjc]

Hall hit - suspension?

 

[PalaceGun]

No. Clean hit.
Larsen was fortunate that he wasn't stepped on by the Devil buffoons jumping over him. Pack of clowns.

Watching a replay of the Stars-Flames game yesterday - can't remember so many clear breakaways in a single game!

 

[Scary_Foot_9]

Leafs. Urgh.

 

[Great8]

Costly change by Boston in OT, pretty much left us 3v2 for the winner. Shouldn't have got that far though after we coughed up a 3-0 lead but once we lost Nisko things went pear shaped and the Bruins bossed us.
Tight at the top in the Metro, just need to hang around the mark

 

[Great8]

Quality goal from Tavares

 

[PalaceGun]

Tough night for the Florida teams. Combined score of 10-2.

One knows it is a tough night when Gudbranson is hitting the twine!

 

[Great8]

Price not happy

 

[Bradesmaen]

Petry caused it.

 

[PalaceGun]

Yeah, Palmieri would have avoided him if he could have... Just needed the Petry turnstile as an excuse to keep on going.

Price not happy

you can take the boy out of Vancouver but...

 

[PalaceGun]

They took the boy out when he was three.

Not sure about Anahim Lake but I do know Williams Lake is a tough town, may have learned a bit of that blocker use from there.

 

[Great8]

Stars 2-1 up over Filthy with under 4 minutes to go and lose 4-2

Chris Neil celebrated his 1000th game with a fight. Sounds about right.
