[amnesiac]

Should be a sweep

 

[ESH]

Not much to discuss here. Subban had a good season, but Bourque is in a whole different category of player.

 

[Voight]

Subbans Norris should've gone to Suter.

 

[JackSlater]

Bourque's season was much better. I'm still surprised that it is currently 40-0 though.

 

[Kegs]

If anyone votes subban their account should be deactivated

 

[Bouboumaster]

I'm voting Subban to give him a vote but the answer is Bourque

 

[Run the Gauntlet]

Somebody mentioned a sweep well there's the spite vote to ruin it.
Anyway, i thought Bourque was finally going to get a 100 points, before he got injured late in that season.

2 dorks showed up now and one them knows better.

And you wonder why people don't take you seriously............

 

[Bouboumaster]

And you wonder why people don't take you seriously............

Are you butthurt that Bourque didn't get a clean sweep on that poll?
I litteraly said in that quote that Bourque was the answer, even tho I voted for Subban (to spite the Bruins fans, mainly)
What's wrong with you, are you like 9 years old or something?

 

[wetcoast]

No this wasn't a hard poll to answer but for some reason you decided to make it hard

See above as it sounds like you are projecting again.

 

[Plural]

Bourque.

 

[Bouboumaster]

No this wasn't a hard poll to answer but for some reason you decided to make it hard

"Decided to make it hard"

Poor poor Wetcoast can't deal with a pity vote for Subban
I don't know what to tell you, other than outside, it's a way harder life than HFBoard

As for the rest, "No it's YOU" rebuttal make me think that you are truly 9 years old.
At best!

 

[Xspyrit]

Subbans Norris should've gone to Suter.

Even Letang was debatable

Oh the irony

 

[the]

I’ll go with PeeKay just to give him a vote.

 

[Bouboumaster]

Oh the irony

Like the irony to look for a beef when you're not even implicated in thread?

Like, you didn't bring anything else, no points, no arguements, nothing, you're just throwing shit?

 

[blundluntman]

No need to go back and forth over a pity vote everyone. If anything, I'll ask those voters to rescind/change their vote (or consider not counting them) once its time to post the final results for this round. Either way it doesn't really matter, these kinda things have happened in basically every tournament I've run so far.

 

[benr]

Voted Subban even though it’s a weak Norris, as players from the 90s are just too far behind the skill and fitness of modern players. Bourque couldn’t hang with subban realistically

He played until 2001. Was Norris runner up at 40 years old that year. He’d shit all over subbans game in his prime.

changing my vote to Subban in solidarity with @Bouboumaster against the guys who take HF polls this seriously lol

always felt Bourque's reputation especially here exceeded his play slightly anyway

Lol thanks Bro

Subban was going to loose, and rightfully so, but some people here are way over the top

 

[Jack Spider]

Subban deserved his Norris. He played with Markov, Bouillon and Emlelin and they were hard to play against Subban had his one timer and the spinorama carry into his own zone if needed, which was not popular back then.

You both should be banished. Absolute blasphemy.
