Miscellaneous NHL Talk Part VII: The Not-So Lazy Hazy Crazy Days Of Summer

[SolidSnakeUS]

I want the Bruins to win only because of Jagr. I want the Bruins to lose because I don't want Jacobs to WIN ANYTHING.

 

[kudymen]

Great game so far, seems like Jagr got started by the Bolland hit and I swear I saw him hit someone later, haha. Bruins need to capitalize on that pressure so they won't end up the same as the Hawks before - losing after outshooting the opponent 19:4

(Edit - epic jinx, Jagr injured)

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

Holy ****. Be okay Shaw...

 

[DrinkFightFlyers]

Tough shot to take there, but I don't think they shoulda stopped play.

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

He was knocked out cold from a puck to the face.

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

Boston fans booing even though there's a pool of blood on the ice. Nice.

I doubt they're booing Shaw for 'faking' being injured, more the fact that the refs blew the play down, but just stop.

 

[kudymen]

Oh, Shaw that looked bad. I don't like him much but this didn't look good at all

it looked pretty bad, but I always think back to the 15 seconds or so that they allowed and the goal after Thoresons nuts got destroyed.

I mean I don't think he was faking, but I thought that was a relatively quick whistle. It's a tough call for the refs but I think he should have put the whistle away at least until the guy either shoots or goes behind the red line. Again, I don't think Shaw was faking, but quick whistles can lead to guys taking advantage and embellishing.

a little of topic- Harry Z was acquired by pens.

 

[MsMeow]

Yeah that's something I didn't understand about the trade. Didn't Reimer prove anything to the organization after the playoffs? I know game 7 sucked but he's the reason that series went 7 games in the first place.

His glovehand and rebound control has been a problem and hasn't improved. They were talking about this on the 2 sports radio stations here in Toronto today and the Leafs had problems with both those issues. They also were talking about how Reimer faced more than 30 SOG 26 times while Bernier only faced over 30 twice, but I don't think they keep a stat on how many extra shots were the result of his rebounds. They had two other issues with Reimer but I forget what they were.

Thoughts on Bob and if he'll except the offer anyone?

Thoughts on Bob and if he'll except the offer anyone?

I doubt it. He'll still get some serious coin from Columbus and still play in the highest league in the world. We see top Russian players turn down crazy money to stay in the NHL for less all the time. I don't see this changing with Bob.

 

[Chinatown88]

Chara just pushed Toews into the crossbar

 

[The Couturier Effect]

Wow. Boston just collapsed with under 2 minutes left.

This is nuts.

 

[nevermore]

How does it feel being on the other side?

 

[Taijuan Fedotov]

Must be nice to be a Chicago fan.

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

Hawks probably win another game 6.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Lulz.

 

[Flyotes]

What a crazy turn of events.

 

[Taijuan Fedotov]

Game over. Let's buy out bryz!

 

[Flyotes]

Emery just fell down.

 

[The Couturier Effect]

Oh man, Jagr. He looks so defeated.

 

[kudymen]

That was some serious meltdown

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

Hawks win it again. At least Leighton took it to OT to lose .
