It's really silly but anyone else annoyed about "Zet"? I believe it's also the british pronunciation so they probably should be annoyed with us. haha
 
For those just watching the Sens-Wings game, who was that between Kevin Weekes and the other woman? Was that Jamal Mayers?
 
calling the letter "Z" zed......

its a Canadian thing. I had a roommate in College from Canada... he called it zed too.

zed is dead....
 
Those guys that came out of the CHL barely had to do high school, cut them some slack :sarcasm:

story on concussions and some that are still dealing with it


Nearly six years since he retired from the NHL as one of its toughest enforcers, Parker is finding everyday life a more fearsome opponent than any he dropped the gloves against. Some days he feels fine. Many days he finds himself paying the price of years of blows to his head. The 6-foot-6, 245-pound Parker — nicknamed "The Sheriff" as a player — frequently is debilitated by seizures. He has to wear sunglasses most of the time because too much light can bring on headaches that leave him incapacitated. When Parker looks down, he cannot "track" objects. Otherwise, he gets dizzy and nauseous.

He is only 35, but Parker's short-term memory resembles someone much older. He is so forgetful that he has to write down routine things such as needing to make a trip to the grocery store. He often takes pictures and videos with his phone to remember how to do things such as use tools in his woodworking and metal shop.

"I can see right away when he's having a bad day," said Francesca, his wife of 15 years. "When he wakes up, he's in a fog. I can talk to him and I can see it's just going right through him. And then he's forgetful. He has words in his head, but what comes out of his mouth is totally different than what he's thinking."
 
Saddest thing is that Hall who honestly looks like he can hardly tie his skates got Grebeshkov right.

Staal trying to spell Khudobin takes the cake.

You think zed is bad, but how do you feel about chesterfields?
 
I know he's labeled as just another goon, but Konopka's a solid player.

Also Harding just absolutely robbed Voracek. Poor guy can't buy a goal.
 
Charlie Coyle is some kind of physical specimen. Won a board battle against 3 Flyers, kid is ****ing huge.

Would love this kid on the team.

Sounds like Chris Benoit
 
Tarasenko netted his 9th goal so far this year last night. At 21 and a bare sophomore, he is still only seeing 3rd line duty averaging around 14 minutes a game. Had he been a Ranger he would have been been the leading scorer on the team by 2 goals one third of the way into the season. Yeah, I am bitter
