The Flyers are 1-0 when I get completely wasted. Time to start filling the fridge up.

If winning the Stanley Cup means you becoming a raging alcoholic, then I am in full support.

If covering a Stanley Cup Final (a huge dream of mine) means your liver dies then I will support your drinking probl... err solution. Cheers!

Rangers get the Ducks tonight....hope the record against the west improves. Good challenge though.

Here's the video they showed at Foote's jersey retirement: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m0OvTnoKWrk

What a brute :lol .

Some things the video illustrates really well, but often aren't mentioned when talking about Footer, are his positioning (watch how good he was at getting sticks or skates in the lane) and how good a skater he was. He could chase down just about any body in his early/prime days.

The black helmets with the white home (at the time) jerseys looks weird.

Late '90s NHL, baby!

(Yeah, I totally agree)

I know no one here likes Cheli but this is a nice piece on him. And even if you don't like him this part has to impress you.

The Red Wings had just won the Stanley Cup. Chelios could have gone out on top, but he agreed to a one-year, $750,000 contract for 2008-09. He met GM Ken Holland at Joe Louis Arena to sign the documents, then mentioned he was biking home.

“Biking home?” Holland asked.

“Yeah, yeah,” Chelios said. “I biked down.”

“You live in Bloomfield Hills.”

“I know.”

Bloomfield Hills is in Detroit’s northern suburbs. It is more than 20 miles up Woodward Avenue from downtown. Chelios was 46.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Interesting that we're bringing up my least favorite hockey player right after talking about my favorite. Whole spectrum of emotions.

But I will say this about Chelios: You don't play into your mid-forties by driving everywhere and eating fast food. That guy is a shining example on how to take care of yourself physically.

After I just came back from getting deep fried thai food. It was so good.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Foote's last shift was great.

I spotted about three penalties. :lol

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

:lol I remember he brought that up in his postgame interview. Thanked the refs for letting him go.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

This is so awesome :lol:lol

The Corey Crawford comment is the best.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

So Wings go 3-0, beating the Canucks and throttling the Oilers, but can't beat the Jets?? Congrats to Danny DeKeyser on his first NHL goal though. And that was a rocket of a shot.

Rangers had a good 2nd and 3rd period last night, but totally fell apart in the last 3-5 minutes of the 3rd. What the hell was that?

This Stars game is going to get ugly real fast it looks like.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

I just realized...

With Bolland's injury...he's not going to be on 24/7 :lorraine:lorraine:lorraine:lorraine

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Oiler have 2 of those things, what do you call it, when the rubber thing goes into that net type thing? Not really familiar with those

Edit - 3....

Chara just grabbed Jamie Benn like a rag doll lol

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Yeah but the question is, how many does the other team have

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

The other team is the Florida panthers so....

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

So Rinne is out for 2 months with an E.Coli infection is his hip.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

That can happen? Sounds terrible

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

I thought the same thing. Pretty crazy.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

This Hurricanes/Flyers game might be the worst NHL game I have ever seen.

Seguin and Peverley score in the shootout to win, that hurts the ego a bit.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

yep.:shrug:shrug:shrug:shrug

But the Sox just won the World Series and the Pats are in first place.:D

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Flyers fans -

Was tonight basically what they've looked like all year, or were they especially bad tonight? Because they looked like they would be an average AHL team tonight.

Re: The NHL 2013-14 Thread
 

Milbury and I actually agree on something. He just said that in his 40 years of hockey, he would probably rank tonight's Flyers/Hurricanes in the Top 5 worst NHL games.

I'm honestly curious, I know the Flyers have been bad....but is this basically their story all season or was tonight exceptionally bad?
