Winter Classic HBO 24/7 Flyers-Rangers Drinking Game
xganarchy replied to a topic in Philadelphia Flyers
how about "every time Jody Shelley forgets which team he plays for", or "Lundqvist shows his "blue steel" look for the camera" -
I wouldn't mind Gill coming here, he's that big body that we've needed to clear the front of the net. Also a good vet presence. Plus he can be the #6 when Pronger gets back.

The Lindros hit(s) and the Umberger hit were "legal" then. It just pisses me off that everyone at the time was "oh well Lindros needs to skate with his head up!" (which was valid), BUT what were people saying when Richards leveled Booth? Fans were crying that it was dirty, illegal, etc. Now the league decides to start cracking down (rightfully so) AFTER we lose our best player in decades to concussions. Just the kind of luck Philly fans are used to i guess....

How on earth is Giroux behind these people in AS voting?
xganarchy replied to a topic in Philadelphia Flyers
i noticed this last week so i spent about 10 mins (very LONG mins) voting for our Flyers players. Like others mentioned, it's mostly Toronto/Ottawa fans voting to the limit (i think it's like 30 times/day?) for their hometown guys, NOT for those that really deserve it. -
Yeah, i agree, he definitely deserved a beat down. I was ticked off by Ovechkin's act too, but some fans/broadcasters ate it up. Disrespectful to say the least!
-
i'm guessing the people who are saying sit him out for the season are just looking at what the Pens did with Crosby.
-
things like THIS make for awesome rivalries and future matchups! Anisimov overreacted for sure, but seems funny how so many cheer Ovechkin for HIS celebrations but this is frowned upon.
-
wow, musta been a doozy. I can't find any video either, but i'm sure nhl.com will post info about the suspension. Shanny's been good with that this year.
-
I caught that part too, i was surprised Eddie O thought a suspension was warranted, I was expecting them to just sweep it under the rug
-
exactly, just as many of us predicted, players are now using the "face the boards at the last second" move to put the responsibility on the CHECKER to stop, instead of avoiding or taking the hit. It's just getting ridiculous.
-
I'm more concerned with who is going to elbow Crosby in the head tomorrow night! i kid i kid
-
quite a read, i've always been a fan of fighting but it really puts things in perspective seeing what it's like behind the scenes
-
i believe the literal translation of "eskimo" means "fish eater" or "stinky fish eater", so that's why they think of it as derogatory. But that's just what i heard....
-
Beagle is a big guy, but is he really a tough guy? I don't know much about him, and he was wearing a shield so....

News Article Crosby elbows Nick Foligno in the face
xganarchy replied to a topic in Pittsburgh Penguins
Is it wrong that i hope Rinaldo hits Crosby with a clean, open ice hit the next game so the hypocrisy can begin? I'm sure Rinaldo would get a 5 game suspension and Crosby would cry about disrespect rampant in todays game -
News Article Crosby elbows Nick Foligno in the face
xganarchy replied to a topic in Pittsburgh Penguins
Not a surprise. But you know if the roles were reversed and Foligno elbowed Crosby like that, in the chops, he'd be suspended. -
yeah that's insane, funny enough i was going to list Toronto as one of the teams I could see him going to. I wonder if the Oilers would part with a promising young guy for Staal (altho they're pretty stacked offensively as it is). I could also see him go to St. Louis
-
Ouch, i HATE when that happens. You plan something then, last minute, your plans just turn to crap. My 1st suggestion would be to just DVR the games if you can. Family won't be around forever, and sometimes spending time with them should come first. If this isn't an option, however, perhaps you come down with a bug or have to work etc (some kind of excuse). That, or maybe offer to meet up with them after the movie? Sorry, I don't know if I could be sucked into watching that crap movie haha
-
I'll vote for Gagne, was a true team guy and a class act.
-
Any guesses where Phoenix Coyotes franchise ends up?
xganarchy replied to a topic in Philadelphia Flyers
I'm hoping to see a team back in Quebec, they had a good rivalry with the Canadiens and Canada deserves another team. -
sorry i should have quoted what i was responding to. I was trying to justify why it took so long for any of the other Flyers on the ice to help Burt. I in no way am condoning Domi and the other Leafs player beating up on Burt!
-
well to be fair i think there were multiple fights going on, the refs were accompanying a Flyer to the box (which is why they were outnumbered) if my memory serves me correctly
-
i remember when that happened, i was SO pissed! And i love how the ref comes in and grabs Richardson, after 15 seconds of TWO Leafs beating on Burt (i think it was Burt on the ice).
-
Lucic definitely didn't try to avoid the hit in the least, so therefore he definitely deserves a penalty. If the puck was still there at Miller's feet, I'd say he deserved it. You've got to protect the goalies a bit more, i get as mad as the next guy at goalie's who clearly EXPLOIT that, but Miller was just clearing the puck away.
-
I think that's a trade I'd make...Hedman is huge, tough, and seems like he'll be great for MANY years. Voracek has started slow and Bob isn't helping us on the bench. (altho i love his game)
