I kind of feel like the Avs and Chiefs have had a lot of parallels these last few years. Both teams have been in the dumps under suspect coaching staffs, but have had a core group of young players that you just felt were too good for the team to look so bad.
Here's hoping Roy and Sakic can have the level of success that Dorsey and Reid have had so far this year. |
I think you spelled season wrong.

Holy shit. I can't believe it's already hockey season. I guess I'm not used to sports with a 3 month offseason.
|
YAY!
40th year in a row that the Blues will get me excited and then let me down! |

Hey Go you Pens!

It's going to take me a while to wrap my head around this new division structure. I can't even remember who the Avs' new "rivals" are...

Now we're in the same division. |
No expectations for my Flames other than a lottery pick.

It's gonna take a while to stop hating the damn Canucks as much. Still couldn't get rid of the damn Wild, though. |

Just watch a few of their home games. To their fans, that team has never committed a penalty, and the opposing team deserves 5 minute majors every shift. It's basically 20,000 Petes. |

Glad to have hockey back for a full season - good luck to all your teams boys & gals...

Hell, I'm going to the game tomorrow night with a Wings fan, and I think he's planning to actually root for the Avs. |
Penguins start it off on Thursday against the Devils.
Also, **** the Capitals. |
Wow...another goal by the Hawks to tie it up for the 4th time in the game. Crazy.

How will the Blues fail this year?
|
The Predators are going to suck. Again.

Avalanche look like they've played with each other before... played hockey with each other before.
Something new this year. |

Good comeback win by the Jets last night. It was nice to see the young draft picks (Trouba and Scheifele) have an immediate impact in the lineup.
I'm thinking it's going to be tough making the playoffs this year with the Jets moving over to the West but it gives me hope. |
Scored tickets to the Home Opener tomorrow night. Still an outside chance of getting Cardinal playoff tickets for tomorrow afternoon as well.
|
I've been meaning to get over to see a Blues game. Heard its a hard ticket to get.

Just got home from the game. Roy is as fiery as always - he knocked the glass between the two teams' boxes down at the end. Not sure what he was so pissed about, but it was pretty hilarious.

Glad to see Roy hasn't changed a bit.

I haven't looked back at it, but it also looked like one of the Ducks slew footed Varlamov earlier in the game, but I didn't get a good look at it. |
Here's another video of it. The quality sucks, but they show the hit in question.

It wasn't a particularly egregious hit. Lovejoy may've had the SLIGHTEST consideration of trailing his knee, but it wasn't some superdirty hit. Roy's reaction was hilarious, but entirely childish and over-the-top. He's gonna look like a clown more than a few times this season, especially when the losses start piling up, which they will with that defense.

I'll take the fiery attitude over the "sit back and take it" approach that Sacco has had any day. |

Brett Hull has gotten fat. Blues vs Preds on now.

Backes scores on a PP goal. 1-0 Blues 17:55 in.

2-0 Notes.

"We'd like you to meet the group who believe in hockey in Arizona..."
...to the 11,000 people who showed up to thank them. LMAO http://i143.photobucket.com/albums/r...psbe1e910d.png |
Tons of people from Hockey towns retire to arizona. Lots of black hawk and Wings jerseys when I was there.
|
Good thing Nashville sucks, the Blues forgot to play defense tonight.
Fun game though, nothing like running Rinne off the rink in like 9 minutes. |

Im damn worried about Rinne, not sure if he is still a bit hurt or had a bad game. And the AVS looked awesome on Wednesday.

Well, Rinne was a ton better tonight, but the Avs still pulled out the win. Woot.
|
Pens shut out New Jersey last night. Fleury was solid. Crosby was Crosby
|
Kings took a dump in Winnipeg tonight. Geez.

Hawks drop one in a SO to the Lightning ,3-2. Blew a 2 goal lead in the 3rd, Bishop, TB's goalie played very well.
|
Been a lot of fun games this week. I think I'm just giddy that we have hockey in the fall this year, but it's definitely nice to have something other than football to watch.

Well, that didn't take long.

I think it's hard to hold the lockout season against anyone - that was a goofy year. And only 3 games into this season? The guy took them to the finals 3 years ago and he just got the ax because of a bad year during a goofy season and 3 games? With his GM citing a 'gut feeling' and his owner upset about the pre-season results? Sorry, but that's dysfunctional, IMO. Organizations that do shit like that just spin their wheels. |
The coaching carousel in the NHL is beyond nuts....
|
|
I like the way he fell down. A true fail. I wish the NHL would just have no touch icing and I think I like the shallower nets.
