2011-2012 NHL Regular Season Thread

Yeah Trade Freeze will be at its normal like 24th to 27th or something.

Also, I like that trade as a Sens fan. Rundblad was expendable because they already have two very good puck moving defenceman. Now with Turris and Zibenejad (sp) they have two excellent centres.



I guarentee you Rundblad is hating it right now.

Whoever the Buffalo play by play man is, he apparently has trouble distinguishing between fanning on a shot and a deliberate fake shot and then a pass. If it was Asham, i could believe he fanned on the shot but when Geno does it, it's a fair bet that he meant to do it, especially when the play results in a goal.

 

[Bradesmaen]

Buffalo are the New Rangers. Ridiculous contracts to average players. Errorhoff is playing like Errorhoff yet again and Leino is a spud. Try ditching those contracts Pegula.

 

[TheStinger]

Pens chase Enroth out of the game, get Miller, score some more and chase him out, get Enroth back, Geno hat-trick.

Nice.

Nice goal by Jannik hansen to ice it for vancouver..

he has nice wheels. made mince meat of phaneuf

 

[PalaceGun]

Wow, game winning goal in the desert.

 

[Bradesmaen]

Well at least it is better than this one last year..

 

[PalaceGun]

I guarentee you Rundblad is hating it right now.

How are you going to guarantee that?

I can think of no reason to hate leaving Oddawa. If he likes Eastern Canada he has no reason to worry, he'll be back there so enough.

 

[Bradesmaen]

Colin White and Niemi just got absolutely undressed by Eberle.. Niemi should never poke check, it never works.

Who really wants to play for Phoenix Apart from a move north soon.

 

[PalaceGun]

Beats Oddawa.

 

[PalaceGun]

Niemi should never poke check, it never works.

This is true.

 

[PalaceGun]

Tomas Kaberle has played for four NHL coaches in the span of 23 days. That must be a record?

 

[sens]

As a Sens fan I hate the trade. Rundblad has been horrid so far in terms of his defense but has almost Mike Green potential and can dangle at will. We end up with Turris who seems like a Heatley level douche and has done nothing in the NHL other than some points in last years 4 playoff games.

I feel sorry for Rundblad too. He has just moved into to his own house and was getting along great with Karlsson together with an experienced countrymen in Alfredsson. At least he has OEL in Phoenix.

 

[stay true]

So I watched the first part of 24/7 before. Bryzgalov. WHAT A MAN!

 

[iluvparis]

Not sure when Week 2 was shot but it should make for interesting viewing with the Flyers getting absoutely torched this week.

 

[Bradesmaen]

Those crazy kids from Quebec.. upset that the Canadiens don't have a French speaking coach.. even the Government has demanded for one.

Looking forward to the Pittsburgh v Hawks game on Foxtel tomorrow!

How good is the NHL on tv- could give us a few more games but at least they usually show decent games (No Winnipeg or Carolina rubbish)

Yeah it rocks, would love it if there was a game shown every day though. Especially B games Sick of having to get by on highlights. Did like watching Marchand's goal today though.

 

[iluvparis]

Man up and buy Gamecentre

Only real choice if you support a Canadian team - but Boston should get plenty of Foxtel coverage over the season.

 

[Chops_a_must]

What a goal by Chris Tarrant.

 

[Chops_a_must]

Nerrrr.... another injury!

 

[Chops_a_must]

I haven't seen Pittsburgh play with this intensity in a while.

Fantastic offensive pressure and forechecking.

Just getting a stick in everything and forcing them to take penalties.

It's the sort of hockey that won them the cup.

Just can't get over excited as they're leaving their feet.

 

[iluvparis]

That Chicago goal was one of the best I have seen this year - superbly skilled passing all round!
