He's just trying to stir up an argument and bait me. I ignore him, he should learn to ignore me. Reported.

Hey wasn't stirring anything up. That was valid news about a star player on the Blackhawks that was extremely relevant to a topic hotly discussed here. Just because it proves people right that aren't you, that doesn't mean he's doing anything wrong.

 

Kane isn't reaching his potential, and he's a drunken boob half the time. That's that.

Yeah, and he included my name at the end. Only reason to do that is to try and mock me and bait me in to a fight. It's alright, I reported both of his posts. Hopefully the mods here take care of it and he can finally move on.

Oh, now I get the "reported" part. He could have done a lot worse!

 

Anyway, yeah, it'd be a lot easier to move along if the Blackhawks, you know, DID SOMETHING! :lolhitting

Yeah, it's been quite the boring offseason. Watching all these stars choose other teams. The excitement from 2 or 3 weeks ago has dropped off significantly.

Actually, with all of the talent being drained out of the Central...it's kinda exciting. Every team but the 'hawks and possibly the Blues have gotten worse.

Proving someone wrong using new facts isn't an attack.

Interestingly enough, I never even knew the "Report" button existed. Heh.

Apparently it doesn't even work. But an admin has PM'd me, so the situation will hopefully be taken care of.

Preds match the offer sheet to Weber

And hockey in Nashville stays relevant.

Semin to the Canes for 1 year, $7mil. I like it for the local team.

So is this sport going to lock itself out again?

Probably. The players union now has Donald Fehr as their head, and his history shows that he doesn't mess around.

Expecting a loss of games?

Yeah, that seems to be the prevailing opinion at the moment, but they still have time to work it out.

 

So Donald Fehr led the 1994 MLB strike. The two biggest fanbases in hockey are in Toronto & Montreal. In 1994, the Blue Jays were two-time defending WS champs and the Expos were the best team in baseball, but due to the strike never made the playoffs & moved to Washington. He's probably not liked too much up there.

That connection totally escaped me! Interesting.

 

I'm really not stressing over a work stoppage this year. The NHL has priced me out of wanting to go to games, so for me it's just a TV show being cancelled.

I'll take my kid to Wolves games and be perfectly fine.

Hard to get excited about season that might not happen.

The cheapest seat is $54! :o

Blackhawks sign Michal Rozsival

 

I actually really like this move as I am a big fan of Rozsival and have been since he was on the Rangers. It's too bad there won't be a season - stupid NHL.

Won't the NHL and NHLPA think of the children? Specifically Patrick Kane. How is he going to handle this extra free time?

:lol:

Well, the good news is that we'll see Adam Clendening and Klas Dahlbeck make their pro debuts in Rockford. The blue line for the Ice Hogs should be stupid good with Olsen, Stanton, Clendening, Dahlbeck, Lavin, Lalonde and Youds.

The lockout is official.

 

Is it bad that as a drunken season ticket holder (half season), I am really not that upset about no hockey?

 

Maybe it's the Sox/Bears potential or just the frustration of the last two first round exits by the Hawks?

The NHL is doing everything it can to make sure no one gives a s*** about hockey.
