also so many undies being twisted in the other thread. I love it.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Way to go team.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Gotcha. Completely different from gocubsgo switching teams because they won a cup.

Atleast you have a couple home games to go to right?

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

See, convos that go like this are precisely why I love this thread and its posters. :thumbsup

Hahaha it's hilarious

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

For my 7,000th post, I think it's only fitting to hand out some first-ever annual Ants end of season awards. Lots of great nominees, but there can only be one recipient for each.

Calder: Rebecca de Mornay. Has made brief appearances in the past, but really had a strong rookie year showing this season.

Norris: Swordo. His team fell short of expectations, but Swordo was always back there, steadily defending to the end.

Vezina: ~crashintome89. Witty, clever posts stabilized the thread throughout the season and helped foster a consistent, light atmosphere.

Byng: Kev87Lads. Just a sweet guy.

Selke: Barbogast. Was frequently called upon to defend his ailing club, and did so with just the right mixture of honesty and pride

Adams: Lockman21. His knowledge of the game in general kept us on an even keel. Chris was also a strong Norris candidate due to his switch to D this year, something that has made me eternally proud of him.

Hart: TMoore. Lead the thread in posts for the year and was consistently great in all aspects of the game.

Great regular season, guys.

16 more Dubyas left.

Very nice 7000th post. Can't wait for tonight. Need the old tv's that have picture and picture. I remember my roommate freshman year in college had a tv that did that. Wings on one channel and one of the other games in the small frame. Best time of the year.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

I'm in the middle of a bathroom remodel that I'm just trying to get done, so I'll be turning up the TV really loud so I can hear it while I work in there. My wife just laughs as I come running out of the bathroom and down the hall to the living room every 5 minutes when I hear Doc start to get excited. :lol

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Doc gets excited a lot more often than there are goals so that probably impedes your progress quite a bit.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Looks like i missed quite a bit recently in here :lol

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Actually, Tim gets the Art Ross trophy but Matty gets Hart.

Also, nice backhanded compliment. Giving a Flyers fan the Vezina? Eff you, Matty boy.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Well when you add up all the goalies they've had over the years....

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

:lol:lol

Do we know who is calling each series?

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

I'd like to thank everyone in this thread for their appreciation of the game and hard work all season, couldn't have done it without you guys.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Yeah, I probably could have had it done last week if it weren't for hockey. :lol I did end up getting some brown paint on our white ceiling after getting pissed when I heard the Sharks score on the Avs last week.
The irony was not lost on me, my friend. I was considering giving you and Roose the Jennings.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

It'll probably change throughout. The Wings had 3 different teams working the Ducks series last year. I only know Strader by name but they also had the Lightning and Canes play by play guys a few games. I'd guess Doc would be doing the Pens/Jackets, Wings/Bruins or Hawks/Blues primarily though since he lives here in MI. Doubt he goes West too much.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Masons officially ruled out for Game 1. Emery starting. Smh

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

I love this post. I've realized recently that I don't even post in any other threads on this site anymore. This is the one holy place on Ants. Great avatar switch, by the way

Also seeing all these playoff commercials and montages and stuff is making me kinda sad, and very jealous. Good luck everyone, unless you root for the Flyers or Penguins. Then I hope you lose mercilessly :hug

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

I think it's 95% of the posts of most people in this thread. We all really just come here.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Totally :thumbsup It's a tribute to the regular posters here. I think we've done a good job of fostering a pretty cool culture here. It's kinda just like a hockey locker room, actually... a lot of bullshitting and ribbing, but all good-natured.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

I'd like to take my Calder and gift it to Ryan Murray. Now he'll have two of them.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Gee, thanks man

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

You could do that, but then he'd only have one...

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

For roose we present the innagural Keith Yandle award..

Given to the biggest snub.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

So what was I nominated for?

:lol:lol This should be a real award!

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Sorry John, only so many trophies to hand out. If it makes you feel any better, I didn't get one either.

But you hands down get the Hockey Writer of the Year award. Don't know what the name is, so let's call it The Roose trophy.

EDIT: :lol:lol at Becca

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Does Brohan win the President's Trophy since that's all he cares about?

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

:lol :lol

Perfect

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

I'm glad I wasn't around here for that guy, was he really THAT hard for the presidents trophy? I know I've seen the one quote in the Flyers fan's sig
