Sabel79 Posted March 29, 2016 Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 I'd rather not revisit that unfortunate era. Didn't they start throwing mousetraps in Pittsburgh at one point? Kinda brought the shenanigans to a grinding halt. Man, that was 20 years ago... (stares off into the middle distance) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PASabreFan Posted March 29, 2016 Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 NHL could use more flair like this! And more outrageous cellies. P.S. @nbcsn has tweeted a funnier version with a certain dramatic varmint at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sodbuster Posted March 29, 2016 Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 I vaguely remember the league putting the kibosh on the rats the first time around, because of safety issues and delays.I thought they were strict with the whole octopus thing in Detroit, too. Whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LTS Posted March 29, 2016 Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 The Vesey situation sounds like his Dad his still in his ear controlling his life trying to make sure his kid fulfills his father's lifelong fantasy. His first statement tells it all. he wasn't given a choice, he was told he would play hockey. After that I began to tune out. The teammate aspect of hockey is known and exists in the NHL as well. I am fine with him going back to college. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jsixspd Posted March 29, 2016 Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 I thought they were strict with the whole octopus thing in Detroit, too. Whatever. Speaking of which - I saw my first Detroit Octopus on the ice last night - somebody about 30 ft away from us tossed one out on the ice right after Detroit scored that empty net goal with 3 minutes left- a nice big octopi. Not sure why it was there in a non-playoff situation - caused quite a buzz in the crowd - lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BagBoy Posted March 29, 2016 Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 He is basically saying he'll turn down a year of a pro contract and a top-6 position on one of the best team's in the league for a chance to go back and become a UFA in August. Less money if he does so, but he gets to pick his team. If it is the Leaves, this whole things needs to be investigated by the league. Poille didn't make a move at the deadline because he was told by Vesey that he would sign after Harvard stops playing. He screwed over the Preds. No doubt about it. He DID screw over the Preds. He wouldn't even MEET with Poile. Good thing I'm not coaching the Preds, because the first time he plays against them, I would make it a game he never ever forgets.

TrueBlueGED Posted March 30, 2016 Report Share Posted March 30, 2016 (edited) Rob Vollman @robvollmanNHL 2m2 minutes ago Chicago has 19 points since beating Dallas Feb 6, second-last in the NHL, and most of those came against non-playoff teams. And to think, they've still clinched a playoff spot :lol: I know they can point to the Cups and whatnot, but I'd still be at least a little concerned if I were a Hawks fan.

LTS Posted March 30, 2016 Report Share Posted March 30, 2016 I'd bet they sit Keith for the remainder of the regular season which won't impact the Hawks at all. They have 5 games left so it almost fits perfectly. I'd love for the Wild to play the Hawks in the first round.. sigh. That was garbage by Keith and it's not his first time doing something stupid like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
