:lol Nicely done.

Happy womb emancipation day! Have a banner and a President's Trophy.

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

And Tom Gilbert.

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

You all realize his birthday was yesterday. What a bunch of jerks,

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

hey at least he gets b-day wishes

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

Happy birthday Barbs!


Malkin was a joy to watch last night.


Also no, it's not shocking Therrien got fired even though the Habs are in 1st. They are 5th in the east currently, their division just sucks. They were treading water under him. Definitely a new voice was needed.

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

:lol it's true, the big day was yesterday

Thanks for the love though

Lcsulla: the truth is, Jagr had a decent enough supporting cast, but the team was a victim of poor coaching and lack of defensive depth. But the teams that Jagr played on featured some damn good forward groups. If the coaching was better at the time, and Jagr put his whole heart in it, he could've been more productive.

Great stuff from Corey Hirsch on mental health:

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

I know the Caps D was really shallow and I don't think Jagr's heart was into it like it had been in Pittsburgh - shit, imagine if he and Ovechkin had played on the same line? Damn that would have been fun to watch!

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

I mean again it wasn't like he didn't have the line mates. Don't forget who was on that team at that time. Oates, Bondra, Lang, Juneau etc. They had forwards. They were just terribly mis coached.

Hence why I :lol'd so hard when Butch Cassidy came back from the dead the other day. He was the one that ruined that core.

And regardless, they never had the D.

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

Yeah, he had the linemates at times but he never produced like people expected based on past performance. Completely agree on the D - I know it sounds silly but I think one of the main reasons for the Hawks sustained success has been keeping the core of Keith, Seabrook and Hjarlmasson intact and plugging in guys like TVR, Oduya, Campbell, Rozsival, Svedberg, etc, etc to eat up the remaining ice time and fill in for an injury or scratch - or perhaps a suspension if Keith gets pissed off about something and wacks a guy over the head with his stick.

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

I can't wait till the trade deadline and then want to jump to the finals in June.

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

Whaaaaaaaaa? The first round of the playoffs is like the best thing in the world.

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

Holy back read! :lol at Brohan!

Also, the Boston/Montreal saga just got really fun again. I hope they play in the playoffs so badly now!

And finally, happy belated to Barbs!!!

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

Meaning I want to jump to the offseason.

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

No doubt about this, but if the Pens weren't in said first round for the first time in a quarter century, I might have a tough time watching, too.

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

Just want to hit reset. I'll be watching the playoffs, I mean I knew they'd gone in round 1 last year and still watched the rest. Knowing they need to make changes and sitting around waiting for the changes is tough. I really wish we could jump to October to see where they are.

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

I kind of want to see this season through. I've developed a morbid fascination with seeing just HOW far the Avs can fall.

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

Wings are still 22 points ahead of the Avs that's amazing to me. I think I might be with you if the Wings were in that position. How bad can you finish? I'm just curious to see what Holland can do and if it'll help. He's never been in this position before. Sounding like he'll be looking at moving UFA's right now, although I wouldn't be shocked to see Green moved if the right deal came along, and any other moves (Tatar or Nyquist) would happen after the season.

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

didn't we have a discussion here about someone whacking a guy over the head with his stick and a person in here had no problem with it?

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

i can say with confidence that this person was not me lol

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

Getting really pumped for my trip to Chicago this weekend! Really hope the Hawks don't come out flat after the week off. I may never get invited back if they fail to score again....

Breaking news!!!!

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

Its weird how inferior you feel to the Flyers

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

I don't care how terrible the Flyers are at the moment, a Caps fan can never ever burn the Flyers because they've never won a Stanley Cup.

Soooo, what rationale do you use to defend the Eagles?

Re: The NHL Thread (lolcaps)
 

Yeah, that was probably me and at times I am fine with it if it is warranted. I am not advocating smashing someone in the mouth or hitting them over the hear if they lose their helmet but a wack to the helmet is fine with me in certain circumstances - aka someone cheapshots your teammate. Lords knows I did enough slashing, spearing, high sticking, crosschecking as a d man back when I played and someone intentionally tried to injure one of our top guys - that said I never actually hit anyone over the head with a stick in a hockey game! :)
