Yep those are the Red Wings

road doggy dogg 02-19-2015 09:22 AM

fuck yes they are

With the risk of sounding like a biased Canucks fan, I feel confident that Bo Horvat is going to be a very good 2nd line center in the league one day, and wouldn't look completely out of place as a future 1st line center.


He reminds me of a poor man's Jonathan Toews, which is in no way a bad thing. Excellent two way game, with a tremendous work ethic.

Would it be much of a stretch to say that you... Bo-lieve in him?

JimmyMess 02-19-2015 10:08 AM

To Toronto:

Zach Sill
2015 4th Round Pick
2016 2nd Round Pick

To Pittsburgh:

Daniel Winnick

Leafs will also eat half of his 1.5 million salary

This has Mark Hunter all over it. He's going big, going to scout like they should have been doing for years.

Bad News Gertner 02-25-2015 10:48 PM

Lol Zach Sill is so friggen terrible. And I'm a fan who LOVES players who drop the gloves.

Seemed like a good kid and all but... yeah here in Pittsburgh we threw a mini parade today getting rid of him. Awful.

What are your impressions of Winnick?

Bad News Gertner 02-26-2015 11:34 AM

Great PK guy. Very hard worker, can chip in offensivly. Great pick up.

Evil Vito 02-26-2015 07:08 PM

<font color=goldenrod>Maple Leafs get: Nathan Horton
Blue Jackets get: David Clarkson

Wow, can't believe the Leafs were able to dump that contract.</font>

fuckin good riddance!

JimmyMess 02-26-2015 07:25 PM

Jagr to Florida for 2 picks.

Thought he was headed back to Pittsburgh for a while

Emperor Smeat 02-28-2015 11:23 PM

Blackhawks-Coyotes trade:
Blackhawks got Antoine Vermette
Coyotes got 2015 1st Rd pick and Klas Dahlbeck

Vermette was one of the two guys the Bs wanted the most but Blackhawks were more agressive in the trade talks.

JimmyMess 03-02-2015 09:41 AM

Jeff Petry shipped to Montreal.

Trade Deadline day. They make the biggest deal out of it and its usually a dud.

Evil Vito 03-03-2015 08:30 AM

<font color=goldenrod>Isles got Michael Neuvirth for basically nothing. Neuvirth was playing too well and therefore impacting Buffalo's ability to tank properly.</font>

road doggy dogg 03-03-2015 08:50 AM

Poor Buffalo... do they realize they'll still only have a 20% shot at McDavid?

Evil Vito 03-03-2015 11:35 AM

<font color=goldenrod>Probably, but if they finish last they can't pick any lower than 2nd. Jack Eichel would have been a consensus #1 overall pick in most years so that's a pretty good concession prize.</font>

road doggy dogg 03-03-2015 11:41 AM

Is that how it works? I read something here: http://www.mynhldraft.com/2015-draft...-lottery-odds/

Quote:

The NHL will also make a change for the 2016 draft where they will determine the top three draft slots and not just the first overall that has been done in the past. The team that finishes last could now potentially drop down to the fourth overall pick, and not the second overall as it now stands.

"Three draws will be held: the 1st Lottery draw will determine the Club selecting first overall, the 2nd Lottery draw will determine the Club selecting second overall and the 3rd Lottery draw will determine the club selecting third overall."

After the drawing for the top three slots, the remaining four through 14 will go in inverse order of their regular season points.

Evil Vito 03-03-2015 11:56 AM

<font color=goldenrod>2016 ;)

2015 is just for the top pick. Would have come in handy this year though as many teams feel Eichel is plenty worth tanking over.</font>

road doggy dogg 03-03-2015 11:56 AM

ohh right, yeah next year that noise is in effect

Emperor Smeat 03-03-2015 01:20 PM

Will the lottery be done in public or behind-the-doors NBA style where rigging could be possible or assumed?

Bad News Gertner 03-03-2015 08:50 PM

I will bet my posting career at TPWW that the Leafs end up picking #1.

Shisen Kopf 03-03-2015 09:02 PM

I watched the Leafs/Caps game the other night all the way through. Why did I do that? Goddamn the Leafs are a bunch of sorry fucks.

Bad News Gertner 03-03-2015 09:51 PM

Caps vs Blue Jackets game was bad ass. 4 fights tonight, Ovie with a couple goals.

road doggy dogg 03-04-2015 08:30 AM

lol Lupul, Phaneuf and Cuthbert threatening to take legal action against TSN. This story is going to get so beyond ridiculous

JimmyMess 03-04-2015 08:38 AM

There's only one reason that legal teams and players respond this way to "slander" like this. It is because it's true.

I heard this story at least a week before this tweet hit the air.

road doggy dogg 03-04-2015 08:45 AM

I don't think they have a leg to stand on, personally. I'm sure they'll settle with TSN out of court. Can't imagine they'll try and nail some kid for a tweet. Unless they're trying to set some historic precedent where people can be held accountable for their tweets, which I don't think those three are trying to do

JimmyMess 03-04-2015 05:12 PM

they'd be able to get something out of tsn for sure... but there is no way they'll be able to get the guy who wrote the tweet. it's not his fault tsn aired it.

road doggy dogg 03-04-2015 05:40 PM

lol now Lupul's picking fights with people on Instagram

http://deadspin.com/joffrey-lupul-is...ins-1689414231

JimmyMess 03-04-2015 05:59 PM

he might tear his rotator cuff if he tries to challenge online.

Bad News Gertner 03-04-2015 06:13 PM

Lol the dude should call their bluff and make Lupul take a lie detector test

road doggy dogg 03-09-2015 04:37 PM

Was just watching a highlight of a Calgary Flames player's shootout goal... never noticed the Flames' jerseys have the Canada flag on one shoulder and Alberta flag on the other. Kinda cool.

When I first saw it I thought it was Canada on one and the player's home country on the other (Sweden, Finland, etc). I think that'd be a pretty cool thing to have on a jersey... idk. People would probably hate it because hockey fans get irrationally upset over everything lol

road doggy dogg 03-17-2015 10:08 PM

THE HAMBURGLAR playing really good for Ottawa... crazy they are within striking distance of a playoff spot

He got a lifetime gift card to McDonalds too lol. KILLIN' it for my D&D too holla

Heyman 03-28-2015 03:39 PM

Would be sweet to see the Sens get in and take away the final seed from the Bruins.

Evil Vito 03-28-2015 03:45 PM

<font color=goldenrod>The Islanders look like the 2007 Mets on ice at this point.</font>

Yep...what's worse is I keep watching with naive optimism that they'll turn it around.
