  1. He was born in the USA. Just would be worried about his knee and how that would hold up over time. Whoever drafts him though will see him without Nail Yakupov for a full season.
  2. Aside from Rangers, those series can go either way. Love playoff hockey.
  3. If Torts didn't complain every single game then this rant would be relevant but every week it seems to be something.
  4. It really is the market. If he would have bought the Bulls then passion of having one of the greatest players as your owner in his city he made famous would have high potential for free agents. He's not great but I don't believe he's horrible.
  5. Norfolk Admirals won their 23rd straight game in the AHL. Pretty amazing for any hockey team.
  6. Still can't believe Mike Milbury has a [expletive]ing job.
  7. Makes me miss Devin Harris. Was nowhere near as good but least he didn't trash his teammates. I don't know how anyone in the room could like the guy who openly admits to reporters that they need better players before the season even starts. Gonna end up hating Williams more than Dwight by the end of the summer.
  8. At this point I'll be happy when he leaves. Top ten in the NBA but hasn't stopped whining about everything, now including twitter fans? Management has kissed his ass to the point where they traded a top five pick to please him. I really hope he signs early so we don't sign free agents in hope they'll be playing beside Williams and have wasted all our money for a 7th place team.
  9. Agree with this. Not only is she punishing her husband, she's also hurting her kids more than she realizes. It's stupid that the court almost always sides with the mother.
  10. http://www.beawesomeinstead.com/wp-content/uploads/conformity.1680.1260.jpg
  11. NHL (race): 96% white players, 3% black players, and 1% Paul Kariya.
  12. That Kessel trade will always haunt him in Toronto. Not to mention having the largest payroll for managers in the entire league.
  13. Does Halak or Elliot get traded in the off-season?
  14. Crosby's career is nowhere near being finished. Neither is Ovechkin. If Ovechkin finished his NHL career without a ring, wouldn't that rank him different all time?
  15. I love the argument about how great players can't be considered great because they played with great teammates. Makes complete sense.
  16. If you would prefer having a team with those kinda trophies then go ahead.
  17. More shots equals better numbers. Digging too much into the stats when it really is about performance.
  18. Put Roy on Hasek's team and you could have better stats which is the main argument for Hasek. How is it fair comparing players with championships? That is an absolutely silly question. The whole point I'm explaining to you is that. Hasek on Roy's teams could have the same outcomes as before as you need to stop the puck at the right moments to even get to the championship and that is what he did.
  19. Roy doesn't have four rings by accident. He made the saves in the playoffs that were needed. Hasek just didn't make the ones that matter. He was a heck of a goalie but that held him down his entire career. Like you said everyone has opinions on the debate. I'm just going with what I witnessed.
  20. When you have a 1-1 tie going into the third and let a weak wrist shot go by it is your fault. It's why he never dominated the playoffs. Difference between him and Roy is because it's more than just stats and that is what made Roy dominant is his play when it absolutely mattered. Roy in '93 was spectacular and some of his best saves came in overtime. I'm not saying Hasek isn't one of the top goalies ever to play but he also played behind a defense first squad most of his career and also couldn't get it done when his team needed it the most.
  21. Glen Sather had a very awkward celebration. Typical old people moment too.
