NHL January 2019

Ugh, completely forgot that NBC has the rights to Notre Dame football and that’s where the Winter Classic is being held.

NBC doesn’t even try to hide their bias, fuck Notre Dame. How about showing same damn hockey?

I got up in time for face-off; I’ve now fulfilled all my personal commitments for the day. The year is off to a great start!

Excellent 1st period! The field looks amazing; the ice looks great and there’s a possibility of snow!

Can someone tell me what Bettman was trying to say in his remarks about the “Jim Lites Blasts Stars Stars” froofraw? I could not figure out what his point was. Anyone?

Fantastic 3rd period, although I always wonder “hmmmm?” when a team seems to deliberately not set up their offense for 20 minutes.

Overall a good hockey game tho.

Apparently you’ve been watching the third period of Blue Jackets’ games.

Knights’ year is off to a great start too!

Holy crikes the Canadian juniors lose to Finland in Vancouver today, and become the first Canadian team to not win a medal when hosting the tournament, and second time in 20 years that won’t even play for a medal.

Pens are on a 7th game winning streak!!! Bryan Rust was only out one game, and Kris Letang is on the “Last Man In” ballot for the All-Stars.

It’s Bettman. He never has a point, other than ruining hockey.

I was watching the Penguins beat the Rangers last night. They dominated.

Make it 8 games and a shut-out for Murray! :smiley:

Crosby gives spectacular memento to Rangers fan heckling Penguins center

I just hope for his sake other people aren’t going to try and see if they can’t chirp their way to a signed stick. (Or try it with other players) Dude may have created a monster!

I gotta admit that was a very classy thing that Crosby did and I’m pleased as punch that the Rangers fans all took it the right way! Hockey, hockey players and hockey fans totally fucking rock!

Kinda too bad the Knights had to send Reaves down when he’s scored six in his last seven.
Can’t remember the reason now.

Canucks goalless in last two and Pettersson’s injured; if Markstrom hadn’t been playing the best five weeks of his career Vancouver would be at rock bottom of the division, and speaking of that, it seems that cellar dwellers Philadelphia will never ever ever ever ever get a goaltender. Ever.
Doubtful if either team’ll even be wild-cards. Fans like myself have to bear this out with a more…philosophical? take on things.:o

I HATE NBC so much. Tonight the Pens were having a special pre-game ceremony, honoring the members of the team that won the Cup in 2009.

Instead, those of us at home had to listen to Mike Milbury and Pierre McGuirre blabbing on and on. Nor did they show the video tributes from those who couldn’t make it. (Max Talbot, Marc-Andre Fleury, Brooks Orpik, etc)

Fuck you, NBC. You suck.

Well I had a good hockey day yesterday: all my teams won!

Not only did the Knights win, the Blackhawks won and my (new!) Elmira Enforcers finally won an OT game! That’s a Good Hockey Day™!

OMG the Blackhawks won?? I gave up watching after they gave up 2 goals in whatever it was, 20 seconds into the game it seemed like. Sorry I missed the comeback (or the Pens collapse?).

P.K. Subban totally fucking rocks.

From the father’s description of what his son has had to endure this season, I’m glad I wasn’t at any of his games, because I likely might have been arrested and gone to jail.

Good on you, P.K. And good on your parents for raising two talented, good-hearted people.

And holy cow good on Mr. & Mrs. Cornett for being freaking amazing humans! Alla y’all totally fucking rock!

Thanks for posting this, Snowboarder Bo. I’ve always really liked PK and now I can admire him even more.

The new coaches are kicking ass.


You’re welcome! Like I said: hockey, hockey players and hockey fans totally fucking rock. Obviously not all of us, but hey, we’re working on it.
