Daley brings some more enthusiasm to the ceremony instead of the usual Bettman blah.

Congrats Jack Johnson! Wish we didn’t have his cap hit.

The Sedin’s are not hall of fame players. Not nearly close to point per game players.

They were media darlings and good in the Vancouver community, but they aren’t HHOF players IMO.

Well that was very sickening. Just watched the Flyers come back from 2 down to win and stay undefeated with new coach Tortorella.

It's early. The guy stumbled on the right mix and won a Cup early in his coaching career. He was then replaced by Barry freaking Melrose. He's been an side show ever since, and will reveal himself to be the same soon enough. The players and fans in Philadelphia will tire of his antics before long.

Hope you are right, I definitely have no use for the Flyers, their fans and Tortorella.

Well crap. I just barfed in my lap after watching the Flyers come from 2 down again and win. Beat Tampa at home to remain undefeated. Torts effect?

Edit: That Florida game looked more like the Flyers I like and want to see more of. It was a back to back but they looked very ugly. Sandstrom kept them in the game for a while.

Gotta love it. ChiHawks seemed to be trying to get worse in the off season with the intention of tanking. They're currently 19th in league standings. Even Sam Lafferty is tearing it up with 7 points in 12 games.

Watching the Kraken vs. Predators game.

Just glad that Ryan McDonagh isn't a Penguin. Turn over machine that makes Pillsbury jealous.

Just sad that Brandon Tanev isn't a Penguin. Tripped up into the boards, he jumped back up and was ready to go with any Predators player.

Not the size of the dog in a fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog.
Passion and never step down.

Cold rainy miserable day but watching the Flyers lose put a smile on my face. They are 2-6-2 in last ten. Looking like you may be right about Torts antics. :fist:
On another team. I sure don't know much about the Devils except that they are the third youngest team in the league, but how did they win 13 in a row? Their schedule looked fairly easy but still.

Just got a little sick by watching Boston come from 2 goals down and beat Carolina to become the first team in NHL history to win their first 12 home games.

Stumbled upon a surprising, maybe even shocking, stat today. The Sabres, yes Buffalo, leads the league at 4 goals for per game. If someone had asked before I saw that, they'd have been towards the bottom of my guess list.

And they score 4 again for an OT victory against a very good Boston team at Boston. Highly doubt but hope we will be able to match that Monday.

Dude, you have to feel for Bruce. That interview yesterday afternoon was brutal. What he's being put through is unwarranted for anyone.

Sounds like they're bringing in Tocchet tomorrow.

Rutherford has created a soap opera there. Think it's time for him to retire too.

Yeah it is, probably past time. Glad I'm not a Canucks fan because he isn't up to the job and his lack of class and professionalism has everyone miserable or wanting to get the hell out of Vancouver.

Flames/Rangers game is old school tonight. Fights. Several huge Trouba hits. Trouba needs to get his at some point.

Pens don’t have anyone to do that obviously

Not your usual take on Torts.

Well that sucked watching the Caps beat the Bruins at Boston. Bruins have now lost 4 of last 5. Was hoping they would help us and smack the Caps.

Well crap. Just watched the Panthers come from behind twice against the Ducks and win in overtime to move ahead of us. At least we have a lot of games in hand. BIG game tonight!

I don't know much about Tampa and if they have any player issues, but I am enjoying watching them go for their fifth loss in a row.
