Around the NHL 2024/25

The ignore feature ruins message boards IMO, but nobody will see this so what do I know?

So about hockey…

Gabe the babe is sticking around, even in the frigid winter. I’m thinking he gets extended, hopefully for 5-7 years. What a good dude.

You never realize how tall he is.

The ignore feature has its place but if someone overuses it they just turn this place into an echo chamber. My list is pretty short, 2 guys. I think 1 of them might have gone away.

The Professor was blocked from a post game thread and someone redirected him to the opposing teals post game. Never bothered to visit to see the damage.

That guy was operating on a different plane of reality. He'd seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. He watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain...

I’ve honestly never even considered putting any of the HF posters on ignore. I don’t really get super upset about anything anyone chooses to post for the most part. Plus it seems like a kind of snobbery.

 

[Cnile]

Was wondering if Paul Pooley still posts here?

It's not what they post, but sometimes guys can be dicks about how they post

Not me, of course

I’m convinced that guy was just a Swede doing a satirical impression of Finnish Laine fans

So about hockey…

Is the Bruins season over with Charlie Mac Avoy's injury? Where does Marchand go?

Also Spitting Chicklets reported that Laine had not registered a point since the new CoD was released.

When Laine was up in the air with CBJ - a TIIIINY part of me hoped he'd come back, probably just romantacizing his first couple of seasons here.

But, watching a couple of Habs games *barf* and his play in the 4 Nations THANK GOD that didn't happen. The guys give a shit level is near zero.

Oilers still on 4 Nations break

I've played around with the ignore function, but eventually learned to just skim over certain posts/posters and not over-react...too much.
This is where I come to hear the voices of people from across the spectrum--some clearly on the spectrum!
Virtual platforms increasingly curate (as do we, using the ignore function) and this creates mini-echo chambers--even on a hockey board-- which can be very unhealthy. I prefer to know who's out there, even if it makes me

Hello , Hello.....

Penguins look like the want to become sellers at the deadline, Caps looks great again today

 

[raideralex99]

If the Leafs are not playing a team B2B or changing the home teams uniforms or starting time ... they are making them walk to the rink lol?
Anything to have an advantage.

If the Jets can’t find a quality upgrade at centre then someone like Rakell would be a solid addition to push Appleton down. I do think he has played some centre in the past but has mainly been used as a winger.

Unfortunately he does have an 8 team NTC.

Nice contract to, if we are on his list maybe he waives if he doesn't want to stay for some of what looks like will be lean years for the Pens.

Yep 8-3 is impressive. But, I’d rather take 9 in a row. Wonder what Washington will bring in and give up at tdl.

All Canadian teams and Buffalo is my guess

I like the defensive strategy to conserve reserve energy counter punching by not throwing a punch and then taking the on ice prefight nap

 

[bustamente]

Well at least he tried................no I guess he didn't.

 

[DeepFrickinValue]

Mcgroaty will likely be getting better at scrapping.

 

[Puckatron 3000]

I don't love seeing anyone get pummelled like that, even McGroarty. But I am reminded how Chevy once again pulled a rabbit out of a hat in dealing with that whole situation. If I was a GM I'd avoid Chevy like the plague.

 

[tbcwpg]

I'm not sure he knows how to fight, at least a hockey fight. No fighting in the NCAA or in US hockey developmental programs.
