OK, hopefully I can get this to make sense to you.

What's the purpose of speed limits? What about laws? Or prison time? They're there for the purpose of trying to keep everyone in check, following the same "rules". Yet somehow, people still speed, people still break laws, and people still end up in prison. There are always going to be exceptions. There will always be people that just don't care and do what they want. Lapierre is that guy.

Imagine there are no speed limits anywhere, it would be chaos. Fighting in hockey is like speed limits. It keeps the majority of people in check, but there would still be people breaking those "rules".

Did you see who you were speaking to?

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Though in your analogy, there wouldn't be speed limits, or there would but only with tiny fines. But we get to ram into asshole drivers with our big ass trucks, then get only small ticket. That would be sweet.

One of the greatest all time post game interview answers.

I miss Bryz so much. I might rewatch that 24/7 just for him.

Best line, Pavelski on Lapierre: ‘Things like that happen, especially when idiots are idiots’

You can't stop idiots. Speaking in terms of speed limits, I drive on a road where it's 55 and I usually float between that and 60 and there are still assholes who fly by me so they must be going damn near 70 on a regular 2 lane road in the country so if a deer ran out, which I've seen, that would be interesting. So again, idiots being idiots.

Just realized Jonas Hiller is a UFA. Now there is another option for the Oilers. Fasth is for sure the guy they're keeping so...

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

I won't lie, Tim. I'm nervous about tonight. The Avs - aside from Duchene and Varly - didn't look as sharp against Dallas (although everyone's still playing hard). After seeing what Dats did to Chara the other night, I can only imagine what he could do to Erik Johnson...

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Power play has been going strong the last few games. Alfie is finding his legs. I don't think Franzen has scored yet this season either. Datsyuk and Zetterberg are playing the best I've seen them in a few years. Helps when you have a 2nd line that's a threat. We'll see though. Avs always play the Wings tough.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Looks like the pens will be icing their worst lineup in years tonight. Adams and tanner glass on the 3rd line. Harry Z and Engelland. Yes, D-man Engelland on the 4th line.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Ask them if they prefer Fata or Daigle.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

:lol:lol

Thomas wants to win this game bad tonight I bet, I'm expecting he's going to try his best 2011 playoffs imitation tonight. He's that type of guy

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

:lol :lol :thumbsup

Maybe the Pens could lure Fata over from Europe. Play him with Crosby.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

and still win 65-3.


Hat trick for Tye Mcginn, whatttt.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

My first thought was, "what is this, college football?" :lol

Hawks-Blues again tonight.

My hatred for this team has no ceiling.

Matty: Ozzie interviewed Roy since Ozzie works for Fox Sports Detroit now. Here's Ozzie talking about it a little.

This is pretty impressive:

@KKurzCSN: The #SJSharks plus-21 goal differential through first six games is best in league since '84-85 #Oilers (also plus-21); credit @SharksStats

Sharks are scary.

Hope Reimer is already, just say the collision he had with Leivo.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Ouch Tim... Big loss for the Wings in Kronwall. Never like to see stuff like that. McLeod was cruising and Kronner kind of turned, but I still think McLeod could have at least let up. McLeod's not that type of player (agitator and tough but not cheap), but he should see some discipline for that one. Hoping Kronner is ok.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Someone explain the hit on Kronwall?

Heard he went off on a stretcher.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Kronwall went into the corner after the puck, McLeod on his tail. Kronwall did kind of turn his back to McLeod, but I think McLeod had enough time to at least let up. He didn't, and ended up going full steam right into Kronwall's numbers. Carried off on a stretcher. 5 min. major for boarding and game misconduct for McLeod.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Awful. Yeah Kronner turned but McLeod was going full speed. Worried how long he'll be out. Didn't look good.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Pavel and The Mule say suck it Avs.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Wow. The Sabres are really bad.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Damn Callahan out 3-4 weeks. That's killer for the Rangers.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Kronwal has a concussion and cuts to his ear. Has all feeling in his extremities. Is in the dressing room and will not have to go to the hospital.
