  1. Still awake. Still waiting for a goal.
  2. "Yeah, Lehner needs someone tougher than Corey Perry" -Rob Ray LOL :w00t:
  3. Yes, it is the National Fuel Gas logo surrounded by a victory wreath comprised of diamonds. Makes perfect sense for a goalie mask.
  4. Yeah but just 'cause you look like the gimp don't mean you play like the gimp!
  5. Well Foligno wears # 82 and his father wore #17, the second digit of which is "7" which added to 82 = 89, Mogilny's number. So it does make sense if you think about it.
  6. Oh yeah, definitely a different mask for Lehner. "40" on the chin; is this a new death metal motif?
  7. Pretty chippy so far; could be in for a good game!
  8. Kane just tripped over the blue line.
  9. Gionta kind of looks like a beaver, or maybe a chipmunk.
  10. Weber was always a #7/marginal NHL level of talent kind of guy...but I liked him and he had a lot of heart. Went to bat for his teammates many times. Good luck to him moving forward.
  11. Word up. I don't see him as part o the winning equation once "the team" is settled. Now saying ROR gone for 3-4 weeks. Sit him for the season. We'll drop straight down the rankings nicely.
  12. So what do we all think of the new Ferrari F1 car unveiled this morning? Not sure I dig the white and black elements.
  13. just finished some apple slices. Fuji.
  14. Ha! Used to eat lunch in that place on occasion. And then the ballet is right across the street as well. :w00t: He lost a pair of chicklets and then split for the dentist. I bet he plays tonight
  15. I believe it was Aristotle who suggested the ultimate end of all human pursuits is happiness. If the new job with pay raise would have robbed you of happiness, the extra cash would not have mattered. Ultimately, nothing matters other than happiness. I think you made a good call on this one.
  16. Now that was an enjoyable movie at the time. How I wanted a model kit of that MiG-31.
  17. Interesting. His game has been off lately but I'd sit Bogo first! He's been worse.
  18. The additions of Varone and Cola are probably going to be way more than the Canadiens can handle. :w00t:
  19. Watch the hit again. Catenacci needs to learn to keep his head up. He was staring at the ice forever and really bent over such that his head was about belt high relative to any player on the ice. Gudas did not make an exaggerated motion to elbow Catenacci, he did not leave his feet, he was not skating at him (just gliding). Was there intent on the part of Gudas to hit Catenacci in the head or jaw? Probably! But good luck proving that. Hits of this type used to be much more commonplace. Scott Stevens is in the HOF and he looked to hit people more or less in this manner consistently throughout his 22 years in the league. Predatory? Scott Stevens literally ended the career of one of the league's stars, Eric Lindros, because he saw him cutting into the center of the ice with his head down and thought: "Hey, I'm going to knock this guy out." You know, like a predator. No penalty on the play. That sort of thing used to be called "hockey." It used to be accompanied by the saying "Keep your head up, kid."
  20. Justin Bailey was freaking fantastic in his debut. Eichel is out of gas; the NHL schedule is catching up to him. Lehner is still rattled from Marchant's penalty shot goal. We are nicely poised for a big time sell off at the deadline and then a month or so of garbage...for a really, really high draft pick. I'm in.
