Seems to be working well for me.

I fucking want Malkin by the way. Pick through my lineup and make an offer.

I've got Thornton, Lecavalier, Savard, Havlat, Nash.. all kindsa niggers.

I think Malkin is up for the Hart this year. 130 points.

For reals.

My shrewd moves have gotten me ahead of the pack, as I expected.

Edit: Oh shit, nevermind. I'm not in last anymore.

Don't worry though - if you're a Leafs fan, you'll get a top 3 pick. Kaberle and Toskala will be traded by the trading deadline unless the organization is COMPLETELY inept.

Say you can turn Kaberle and Toskala into 3 first round picks and change if you play your cards right. Add your pick and you've got four first rounders.

Rebuilding GO.

Oh and just a by the way for Penguins fans and Crosby holders in various pools:

Crosby is fucked. Enjoy him being out for some time.

Rumour is that he's got a rib cartilage injury. I've also had one of those.

I bet he didn't get out of bed today. Just breathing is fucking painful. I specifically remember not being able to breathe in beyond tiny little gasps for weeks. There's no such thing as playing hockey at that point.

And PS: IT LASTS FOREVER.

I injured my ribs, then reinjured them a few weeks later about... a year and a half ago. They just stopped hurting when I moved certain ways a few months ago.

The kid is piling up those lingering injuries. Next he just needs a major concussion and a knee injury and he'll be set.

Watched the whole game yesterday, didn't even see Crosby take a hit.  All we knew was suddenly he was headed back to the locker room.  And they played awfully most of the night as a team.

Uh, they suck. That's why.

Edit: And also, Crosby blows this year. That's why I didn't notice he was gone until Darren Pang announced it like ten fucking minutes after the fact. He's like the tenth best player in the league, and has been since early last year when he stopped battling as hard as he was.

If Crosby was Hart Trophy Crosby, and Malkin didn't get the flu, the finals would have been much, much closer.

Sucks for PIT, great for everyone else from the standpoint of playing a Crosby-less Penguins.

Well, we'll see.

Malkin is a badass. And he seems like he has far more motivation for badassery when Crosby is out.

Was in attendance at jobing.com arena Thursday evening.

Did not even notice Crosby on the ice much, then in 2nd period he skated like a madman for several shifts. Then near end of period, he mysteriously disappeared and did not return.

Both squads looked asleep in the 1st period. Penguins dominated much of 2nd period, but woeful PK play doomed them.

In the third period, #13 (cannot remember name, he not familiar to me) got used like a pylon. Game over.

Jordan Staal got tons of ice time, love to see him skate, but weird for such a young player, how "old" is skills are — he seems to be much more talented on 'D' side, though he's quite capable of putting the puck in the net.

Pens really hurting on 'D'. Without Gonchar and Whitney, really only leaves Letang as puck toting D man. Though it looked like Malkin was performing lots of D man puck carrying duties… …and #5-#6 D pair are atrocious. I question whether Scuderi should even be on a NHL roster. On O, need somebody else to pick it up — Sykora, Zigomanis, Talbot (whom I been a big fan of in past seasons), etc.… somebody needs to get an O game going…

In case people are wondering wtf I'm talking about.

http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=254491&lid=headline&lpos=secStory_main


TLDR Version:

Leafs losing 2-0 in the third, half the period already gone, you get up to take a piss and come back to the leafs winning 5-2.  Head scratch



This team keeps WINNING, somehow, someway, usually spectacularly.

The SCARY thing, is 3 of the leaf losses so far have been Shoot out losses. So if they actually didn't suck at shoot outs and won those... they'd be at like 8-3.

Your supposed to be losing Leafs!  ACK!

Pretty much. The thing is that most Leafs fans are too stupid to realize that this is a BAD thing.

Unless you wanna pray for winning seasons with top lines consisting of Ponikarovsky, Steen, and John Mitchell every year.

I wonder what kind of odds you could get on Toronto to win the cup.

Couldn't possibly be as good as the 70-1 Vegas odds on Pittsburgh on the 06-07 season, though.

Yeah, first round exit in a sweep. But 70-1 was damn good value for the team they had.

I suppose one would hope that Toronto was about 200-1.

Heh. I really wish HNIC wasn't Leaf TV. Nothing irritates me more than wasting Jim Hughson on a crappy Toronto game. The guy lives in Western Canada- let him do the late games! He knows the teams and cities very well. And please find a hole to drop Marc Crawford in. The tongue baths he gives his former players are nauseating.

And don't get me started on the new theme song. What a clusterfuck.

I was going to talk some smack on the Pens, but Petr Sykora's 2nd goal got me a free Big Mac so I'll keep my mouth shut.  Some really gorgeous goals and extremely dirty playing, was a fun game to watch except for when I was convinced they would blow the lead at the end.

Flyers Acquire Defenseman Matt Carle
Eminger and Downie traded to Tampa Bay

Wow. I liked Downie, but never so much to think he was untouchable. I was never really onboard with Eminger, and his play has been lackluster at best this season.

Carle is the guy TB got for trading away Dan Boyle, so this should hopefully work out for my Flyers.

Hopefully.
