COLD AS ICE - Official 08-09 NHL Thread

Quote:<b, 21<b, 21I almost brought this one up because of how different (yet similar) it was.<b, 21That was a much dirtier hit that didn't even given 3 games if I remember.<b, 21<b, 21I'm not blaming the guy, but he didn't help himself and it kinda makes Kosty look worse. If a guy like him (K) isn't finishing his checks, he doesn't have a job in this league, nahmean? He knew something bad happened right away; he kinda let himself get attacked right after.
 
Quote:<b, 21<b, 21Yup.<b, 21<b, 21Three games out is fair and to be clear - this is not some anti-Habs, pro-Leafs stance I'm taking, that hit was no good imo and would have been so if it were the other way around. That's how it is in every sport; some dirty/careless/etc. plays get by and others don't.

Hope you enjoyed those 24 hours <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" 21<b, 21<b, 21Bruins win a WILD one in Chicago - should have been won<b, 21in regulation but Khabibulin was standing on his head ...<b, 21Claude Julien goes with the completely insane choice of<b, 21PJ Axelsson in the shootout and he scores the winner on<b, 21a sick move that undresses the Bulin Wall!<b, 21<b, 21Thursday night in Boston will determine first place again, for <b, 21another 24 hours. How come the Habs always seem to be waiting for<b, 21us in Boston, while we're on the road playing 65+ minute games?<b, 21<b, 21THE FIX IS IN. <b, 21<b, 21Still, this team is pumped and must be champing at the bit to<b, 21get back on the ice with les Canadiens, back-to-back games or not.
 
Just watched the highlights of that game, and damn...what a goalie clinic!<b, 21<b, 21I'm pretty excited for tonight's game.
 
yeah i am hyped for tonight as well<b, 21<b, 21the upcoming sched is ill<b, 21<b, 21we will have a nice this year rivalry SOI both theams are strong
 
We gotta make sure to throw it in his face if the Habs win because you know he's gonna do it if it goes the other way!<b, 21 <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" 21

Not the game I wanted in the slightest. <b, 21<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/WHYMUSTICRY.gif" alt="" 21
 
Hey Lucic, you cro-magnon: next time, don't turn down the guy that is actually there to fight you.
 
Quote:<b, 21<b, 21LOL, you really need to stop with these delusional posts!<b, 21<b, 21a) Komisarek challenged Lucic at least 4 times in that game, including<b, 21a half-assed not-really-ready-to-step-up gloved swipe as some sort of weak<b, 21"payback" for Lucic's clean but devestating hit on Kovalev. Lucic didn't take<b, 21the challenge the first 4 times because he was keeping his cool for the game and<b, 21didn't want to give the Habs any kind of phony emotional lift, and because Komi<b, 21obviously wasn't all that committed to fighting anyway.<b, 21<b, 21b) Lucic doesn't need to fight Laraque - Lucic is a top six forward, in fact<b, 21he plays on our #1 line and is a big part of the team. Laraque is a useless<b, 21cementhead who only draws a paycheck in the NHL to fight the Habs' battles for<b, 21them. As much as you guys would love to make that trade, Lucic for Laraque, it's<b, 21not a good one for the Bruins ... we have Sean Thornton out there and if Georgy<b, 21really needs to fight someone to show why he exists, I'm sure Thornton (who had<b, 213 points including a goal against you) would be more than willing.<b, 21<b, 21c) As tough and reckless ("cro-magnon") as he is, that was only Lucic's first<b, 21fight of the entire season - so please don't get it twisted. He will run around<b, 21hitting people, and if he needs to fight, he can handle anyone in the league - but<b, 21he only fought - and beat the tar out of - Komisarek because Komisarek has been<b, 21needling him and challenging him since last year's playoffs! Look, I respect<b, 21Komi for stepping up and fighting an obviously tougher Lucic, but it was his<b, 21battle to fight, not Laraque's.
 
Yeah, man....i was kinda tongue-in-cheek about the thing. Lucic is a beast. He's such a Bruin; fans must love him.
 
laraque good a good hit and detroyed that dude : so his job is done for now...i would appreciate a few goals and passes here and there like in his oilers days<b, 21<b, 21we are winning but playing that rollercoaster style that has been better to us thes past seasons but is dangerous in the playoffs<b, 21<b, 21will the CH ever be consistent <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/WHYMUSTICRY.gif" alt="" 21
 
The Habs are awful right now.<b, 21 <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bucs.gif" alt="" 21 <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eagle.gif" alt="" 21 <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/weaksauce.gif" alt="" 21 <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/717.gif" alt="" 21<b, 21I take back everything I've said about them being scary.<b, 21We're a pushover. 3 goals in 3 games? <b, 21<b, 21The 3rd period against the Canes was the worst I've seen the team play in a long, long time. Without Price, that game would've been UGLY(ER)<b, 21<b, 21Kovalev is brutal.
 
What's up with the insane voter fraud being run by Habs fansQuote:27324678942<b, 21<b, 21 <b, 21<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wtf.gif" alt="" 21<b, 21<b, 21<b, 21<b, 21<b, 21Saturday is going to be crazy. B's against Habs after that last<b, 211-sided result, in Montreal on freaking "PATRICK ROY NIGHT??" could the<b, 21deck be stacked any more against the Bruins? Oh, yes, it actually<b, 21could: their 4th game in 6 nights, second of a back-to-back, with<b, 21the 4 games 2 away and 2 home. I feel like we are being set up.<b, 21<b, 21Habs should let Roy actually play goalie for the 3rd period <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" 21
 
Quote:<b, 21<b, 21You're surprised?! There are a lot of Habs fans, and the game is in Montreal this year...<b, 21We know it's not based on numbers/prodcution...<b, 21<b, 21<b, 21and...<b, 21Roy can eat a dick.<b, 21I hope he bails.<b, 21<b, 21<b, 21Saturday= i'm scared.
 
Quote:<b, 21<b, 21Yeah, but not THAT many Habs fans.<b, 21<b, 21I mean, Price has 200,000 more votes than second place??<b, 21<b, 21 <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icallbullshit.gif" alt="" 21
