What on earth does that ref stood next to them think is happening? At what level of hockey is is acceptable to let two guys lie on the ice wrapped around each other?
No shit, in UFC 308 there was an official that broke up ground engagements quicker than this dude. In UFC 309, they mentioned it was his last night as an official, but still... One can only hope we'll hear something similar about this dude having worked his last game. This is a player safety issue and the NHLPA should be filing a f***ing greivance against the ref's union.

Been watching the Bruins/Canucks game... Laughed out loud when I looked up and saw the vintage Sacco Stare making its unceremonious return

Man...do bruins fans know what they're in for?

Funniest thing is Bruins were forechecking at the end of the 3rd and ol' Joe still wasn't pulling Swayman at like the 2:00 mark. And then when he was skating to the bench he had to quickly go back in after a Bruins giveaway. Pretty funny.

"My God...they didn't listen to me and start on time."

LOL

@Bender Following up on your comment... I can't believe someone had the foresight to upload this gem 14 years ago :laugh: Love how he just simply cannot hide how increasingly flustered he becomes -- the lip licking, the head bobbing, the deep exhalations... Lmao!!!



Back to a simpler time when Ryker looked like... whatever the f*** he looks like here

Damn, I was simply, pleasantly revisiting an old nightmare by watching that video and then hit the 20 second mark. When Dater's voice piped in, I lost it completely. It was no longer a pleasant type of horror. What a f***ing shit show everything about the Avs had become.

I blame Dater for being the reason nobody is allowed to ask a question on a post game interview that is actualy audible.

What was that question at :45?

I migth be missing a few key words, but it sounded like Sacco was asked about still having confidence in someone, or the team, and his response was, "Well.....yeah, you could say that." :laugh:

Ugh, that's still a wtf moment for me. Never understood why that got downplayed.

4-0 blowout, 4 minutes left, huge celly at a personal accomplishment. That's when I started to not really be a fan. That one play kind of embodied Dutchy in my mind.
How in God's name was THAT downplayed? It most certainly wasn't, which is proven by the fact that we still have people grousing about it eight years later. :laugh:

Definitely was here. You probably don't remember.

Rough guess I'd say 25-30% of fans were saying people were overreacting and it wasn't a big deal. They were more upset with Roy for calling him out. About the same percentage were upset with Duchene. The rest in the middle.

We weren't that many people who believed that Roy was right.
