I am one of them. lol Yeah, pretty much me too. I first got into it during the 2010 Olympics and then stopped for some reason. Wanted to start back last year but the Lockout made me turn away. Now I'm back and loving it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bay 2,003 Posted January 3, 2014 What a game last night between the Avs and Flyers. Tons of scoring chances cancelled out by outstanding goaltending from both netminders. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oochymp 2,393 Posted January 3, 2014 gotta say I've almost given up on this season, we're likely gonna make the playoffs because of the weakness of our division but the reliance on shootout wins is a bit concerning since we can't get wins that way once the playoffs start, we're 25th in the league right now in ROW Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JetsFan4Life 542 Posted January 4, 2014 Going to my first ever NHL game with my buddy in Dallas on the 27th! GO AVS! Nice man. Always remember the first. My first game was Sabres/Panthers, I was like seven or eight. Speaking of going to games I'm going to the Devils/Sabres game tomorrow! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JetsFan4Life 542 Posted January 5, 2014 Someone please for the love of god explain why the Devils would send down Eric Gelinas? Had the best slapshot on our team and was playing good. He's much better than our other rookie d-man Jon Merrilll. So stupid. Fitting we lose to one of the worst teams tonight and I have to witness it. Could only score a goal on a 5-on-3.

Bay 2,003 Posted January 6, 2014 so i cant quote on ps3... Skinner is en fuego, do the Devils really think Gelinas is a liability on D and go Avs tonight! Rolling on this 7-game homestand Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JetsFan4Life 542 Posted January 6, 2014 so i cant quote on ps3... Skinner is en fuego, do the Devils really think Gelinas is a liability on D and go Avs tonight! Rolling on this 7-game homestand We brought Gelinas back up today (Elias sent to IR). Stupid for him to be sent down in the first place but oh well. It's a shame as soon as we look like we might be getting healthy we get another big injury such as Elias. Team just can't catch a break. Big game with the Flyers tomorrow.

JetsFan4Life 542 Posted January 7, 2014 Rick, honest opinion on Marty? Marty is fine. He has hit highs and lows this season. I don't feel any more or less confident with him or Schneider in net. I feel like they both give us a good chance to win. I think DeBoer has been looking for one of them to totally snag the #1 job though and that just hasn't happened.

Tridentdawgpound 1,043 Posted January 7, 2014 Canes only one point out of the last playoff spot in the Metro. Skinner is pretty much Jesus and Anton Khudobin is the new hot goaltender of the week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BJORN 679 Posted January 7, 2014 Can't believe how good the Ducks are....conclusion: Boudreau is a really good coach. Thought the Caps were stupid for getting rid of him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oochymp 2,393 Posted January 7, 2014 (edited) Can't believe how good the Ducks are....conclusion: Boudreau is a really good coach. Thought the Caps were stupid for getting rid of him. Boudreau is a spectacular regular season coach, but he hasn't figured out the NHL playoffs yet, he's basically the NHL's Marty Schottenheimer Edited January 7, 2014 by oochymp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bay 2,003 Posted January 7, 2014 Matt Duchene made Team Canada. Good for him. Don't really know what to do if Canada got far and USA didn't. He can play well but the Canucks can I guess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BJORN 679 Posted January 7, 2014 Can't believe Thornton and Couture didn't make the cut. Sucks as Canada usually has a designated Sharks line. Lol at Giroux missing the cut as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oochymp 2,393 Posted January 7, 2014 (edited) in a surprise to nobody, Ovi made Team Russia and Backstrom made Team Sweden, which makes 3 Caps on Olympic rosters (including John Carlson on Team USA ) I think I'll enjoy that a bit more than 2010 when there were five Caps on Team Russia, that felt weird Edited January 7, 2014 by oochymp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tridentdawgpound 1,043 Posted January 8, 2014 Canes reign supreme on team Snublandia. Both Staals, Semin, and Skinner not going. Our Olympians are Faulk for Team Freedom, Tuomo Ruutu for Finland and Andrej Sekera for Slovakia. Go them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
