Flames/Sharks: Open Thread


Huge 24 hours in the Northwest. HUGE. Flames and Sharks at 8 tonight. Oilers and Wild at noon tomorrow. Wins and losses in both games change much. Colorado and Vancouver play tomorrow, too. Trade deadline on Tuesday. So much at stake, no speak in proper sentences.

Don't forget Sabres/Sens game tonight, either. 5 MST. HNIC. BOO will surely cover it. Prolly Sabre Rattling, too.

GOSHARKS!!!

I'll be happy when the Trade Deadline passes.

No more obsessive compulsive clicking of link after link hardscrabbling for news about a much talked about, but ever elusive PuckMovingDefenceman.
 


Eric Brewer is off the table.
 


Why am I getting the Leafs/Flyers? Where's the Sabres/Ottawa? Frickin' CBC.

P.O.ed in Penticton
 


Brewer is worth 4.25 per!!! What in the world is Sammy Salo going to sign for?
 


I'm getting the damn leafs, too (BC).

I hope they get absolutely rolled by Philly. Shame them into never subjecting the rest of the country to this crap again.
 


Cripes. 4 and a quarter for Brewer?

No wonder Phillips is dithering on his next contract.
 


If you have the time-shift channels is on cbc-ontario...just not HD
 


Ya, the Leafs is the "national" game. Shocker. Thankfully, I'm watching the Sens game on satellite.

Defence is the new left tackle. Except they aren't that valuable. Crazy.
 


Ridiculous contract for Brewer. $1 mill less than Pronger? Joy. The thing that boggles the mind is that there were reports a few days ago that the first serious offer was made to Brewer, and now we have the contract already signed. Was management in St. Louis stupid enough to offer 4.25 as their first offer? Jesus, they deserve to be bottom-dwellers.
 


If Le GG ends up in Vancouver, Calgary or Dallas, I'm going to freak.
 


I'd rather have Smyth.

But LeGG would be an excellent addition for the Canucks!

I hate you.
 


Understood.

My work here is done. :-)
 


Let's go, Sharkies!
 


Joninabox - isn't that 2 million less than Pronger? I am pretty sure it's burned into my brain that 6.25 mill per that wasn't a good enough reason to stick around.

Go Sharks Go!
 


I haven't paid my taxes in years. It has no effect.
 


I fucking called it! As soon as Calgary went up by two, I predicted their usual choke job!

Let's go Sharks!!! Let's go Sharks!!1
 


What is going on in this game? Twice the Sharks have taken the lead, and then given it up within like 30 seconds. Damn it all.
 


Fuck me. What is with the Sharks? 5-4.
 


How is Nabakov still in this game? 4 goals on 11 shots since the 1st. I think Ron Wilson is trying to fuck us.

Are all the Flames fans dead? Watch, they'll pop up once the Flames win. And only then. Cowards.
 


The Sharks are getting us back for spanking them in the playoffs last year by choking like a Whyte Avenue... well, I bet you can see where I was going with that. The point is, I hope Joe Thornton chokes on his Art Ross Trophy.
 


How the hell did the Sharks win this game? Bruuuuuutal.
 


Damn.

Looks like we're gonna miss the playoffs by a couple defenceman, 6 concussions and NO ONE EVER LOSING IN THE NORTHWEST DIVISION EVER.
 


Man, this is getting hard to watch. I've never seen a team, like the Flames, who seem to be good positionally but just incredibly inefficient in converting defensive opportunities. And can anyone clear the puck? If I see one more of those weak backhand flip clearances I'm going break the TV. This is obviously an important win, but its really becoming clear that this Flames team isn't really going anywhere this year. I don't know if its Kipper, or the Defence Coach, or the PK, or they've lost their identity, or they hate their coach, but this team is struggling when they should be cruising. The only solace is that the Oilers suck more.
 


Ron Mclean: "Up next is Wayne Primeau, who I've never seen without two black guys."

or

"Up next is Wayne Primeau, who I've never seen without two black eyes."

I'm may be drunk, but I'm positive he said the former.
 


In the immortal words of play-by-play man Peter Loubardias:

"Bing, Bang, DOINK!"
 


Looks like we're gonna miss the playoffs by a couple defenceman, 6 concussions and NO ONE EVER LOSING IN THE NORTHWEST DIVISION EVER.

Weren't we gonna blame everything on Mick McGeough no matter what?
 


Peter Loubardias. In a country of 32million people, the majority of them hockey-crazed, I refuse to believe that there aren't millions of people that could do the job better than Loubardias; there just has to be.
 


howza 'bout them Preds?
 


Remember when we got to tease Flames fans because their team couldn't score?

Yeah, I kinda miss that.
