I was up early watching the news, drinking coffee out of my now defunct batman mug I've had since I was a kid. I was just taking a sip of coffee when the anchor said: "This just in; a plane appears to have crashed into the north tower of the World Trade Center in New York City." Not long after that, they cut away to another feed and I watched history unfold.

Is it just me or does it appear that every poll thread created that has to do with defensemen such as karlsson, subban , chara, etc. turn into a flame war? It is like a giant pissing contest in those type of threads imo.

It's pretty ridiculous

You'd think that our posters would pick up on the fact that a strong majority of posters don't bother watching other teams than the ones they cheer for (I'm very guilty of this today, but back 10 years ago I'd watch a ton of hockey that didn't involve the Senators) and simply disregard anyone claiming that Karlsson is bad defensively

Although seeing other Sens posters take it so personally is rather frightening as well

It is delightful to see our guys winning in the polls. Also, I really hope our guys can ****ing get more wins against the laffs and scabs this year. ****ing hate losing to those two teams.

Its getting rather annoying. You cannot have a meaningful conversation in those type of threads anymore. I guess it is time to just completely avoid them all together.

I remember when 9/11 happened... The day before my birthday and it was the subject all day during my day! :(

You'll get used to it

I only go there because of a fellow co-worker who's a Habs fan who just eats the polls section topics up

Generally speaking, the general NHL board and it's ilk (like the NHL draft board, the NHL playoff board and International tournament boards) are to be avoided at all costs

Thanks for the advice. :)

I love reading through the polls on the board. Quite entertaining, especially the thread for the ottawa top 3 vs the Laff top 3.

I just looked at the results of that thread because i did not feel like reading through all the replies. Is it just another flame war or is everyone being civil?
