Help us choose a hockey team to root for

It was stated he wasn’t a diver or a whiner and I provided video evidence to the contrary. It was then stated that he didn’t get calls and I provided statistical evidence to the contrary.

I’m just providing evidence to counter incorrect statements, so, pray tell, where exactly is it that I’m showing bias concerning Crosby?

You know what? Never mind.

You’ve made your bias known, were proven wrong, and instead of moving on or humbly conceding that you were wrong, you’ve tried to make this about me.

I don’t care about Crosby either way. I think he’s talented, over-hyped, whiny, cheap, a good captain, a great clutch player and can’t grow a decent mustache to save his life. With him I have no issues or bias.

It’s his apologists I’m biased against.

Blackest damn kettle I’ve ever seen.

You’re probably right, considering how Crosby scores lots of goals and took his lunch money. At least that’s the possible motives I’ve seen.

I confess that I don’t see the big deal either. Crosby has faults. He dives (and Soulmurk is right. He really should give up on the playoff beard. It looks terrible. I’ve seen middle schoolers with better facial hair) Ovie is dirty. Joe Thornton chokes in the playoffs. Patrick Roy was a dick. Gordie Howe was a right bastard. Pavel Datsyuk has won the Lady Byng for sportsmanlike conduct and he’s a vicious little bastard.

I think the only player in the NHL without a flaw would be Nick Lidstrom. :wink:

Mario Lemieux? :wink:

There’s this thing called a joke. Maybe you’ve heard of it?

tim-n-va – thanks!

People here in Pittsburgh were torn during his scoring streak. Of course, we wanted Crosby to keep scoring, but that mustache! It brought back painful memories of when I was 14.

I wonder how he felt about it. He can’t be looking in the mirror going “Damn I look good” but he keeps scoring so he can’t get rid of it. He was probably relieved when the streak ended.

I read somewhere that the reason Malkin didn’t bother to grow a play-off beard is that his was even worse than Sid’s. :eek: (I actually found Sid’s play-off beard rather indearing.)
Back on topic for the OP: I would like to reccomend my favorite hockey website: Melt Your Face Off. My two favorite features are “Ovie Time” and “The Cocknocker”. (The latter offering up the musings of the lovable Sean Avery)
