Someone called that faking? LOL.



kudos to the author.

 

[FirmestPiano]

Haha, that's hilarious. Not embellishment but oh the IRONY.

GET UP!

 

[Getzo5]

Yeah, that little trick was probably my favorite part. Very clever to use one of Edwards` memorable calls AGAINST them.

 

[Hockey Sports Fan]

Was that call originally Jack Edwards against Shawn Thornton? I'm a little surprised he would even do that.

Of course not.

It was against Roman Hamrlik(?), he and Thornton went into the boards after Hamrlik initiated contact at the Montreal blue line. Hamrlik didn't really do anything wrong, he got up pretty fast so Edwards call was a little uncalled for. Still funny though.

Edit: I see Getzo posted the video. Good one.

 

[Getzo5]

That call and this one are two of my favorite calls:



The guy is a Psycho.

 

[FirmestPiano]

HAHAHA. Hadn't seen that one. Funny psycho guy. He has some memorable calls and I don't mind listening to him call the play by play now and then, but over an 82 game season? It'd be too much to handle, lol

 

[Getzo5]

He very well may be the only uber-biased commentator I don`t mind. Just because he`s freaking hilarious at all times. I just can`t handle my **** listening to some of his calls.

Other biased announcers are downright annoying and make me mad, he`s just too funny/entertaining.



Pure comedy gold.

SUrprised Hamrlik was waived

 

[Saugus]

Weiss done for the year after wrist surgery, so much for that lol

That sucks. Back to the drawing board for our trade speculators.

SUrprised Hamrlik was waived

Could the Devils use him?

 

[Bleedred]

Could the Devils use him?

Haha another defenseman?

 

[Saugus]

We already have too many defencemen, and Hamrlik is not really better than any of them at this point in his career. I'd say no.

 

[FirmestPiano]

This realignment is sooooooooooooo frustrating....

 

[Hockey Sports Fan]

I really don't mind our division, but yeah, pretty much everything else does not sit well with me. Does this vote include the divisional playoffs?

 

[Rhodes 81]

i'm totally indifferent to it.

How can the NHL seriously allow 8/16 teams making the playoffs in one league and 8/14 teams making it in the other? I mean, it doesn't really make a difference because Columbus isn't there yet, but Eastern games are so much more meaningful than Western.

But...but... travel times...

Completely idiotic. Our division is now even harder than it is now.

 

[apice3*]

I think it's easier, personally.
