Another drunk cuba gooding jr please.

 

[Sprague Cleghorn]

It's with a bunch of B list and below celebrities. Plus the performances are stupidly random and they feel forced like the one right before the unveiling of the player on the NHL 15 cover.

"Alright, before we unveil the player on the cover of NHL 15, let's watch a bunch of random guys breakdance!"

 

[JA]

So, this happened at the 1988 NHL Awards.




Some folks like to live in the Rockies
Some live by the sea
Now, me, I love the lakes
I just can't get enough

Some boys make their lives playing hockey
Some get on TV
Everybody here gets a chance to shine

We got a mixed bag
Of voters on the right
They're taking on the Liberals
We love a good fight

We got Mulroney
Staying up in Ottawa
Talking to the ministers
He's working on a plan tonight

They'd better get it right
Because

It's Canada
We are family
Arms open wide
Friends you can count on

Canada
Save a place for me
I'm coming home
Leave me a light on

EH!

Be!

You know that our beer's just as good as Germans'
Michael Fox is our Peewee Herman
Magic Johnson has some moves, but so does Gretz

Some say 99 is the limit
Some say Mario ought to win it
Me, I love the times we beat the Soviets

You're from BC, you're driving in Quebec
You're trying to read the signs, you're on a one-way street

You got a mountie
He's writing up a ticket
Hey, we got rules
Except for Yonge Street, Friday night!

I'm on saying it's wrong or right

But it's all

Canada
We are family
Arms open wide
Friends you can count on

Canada
Save a place for me
I'm coming home
Leave me a light on

Yes, we'll take your U.S. money
Martin Short is very funny
Brian Orser, what a skater
P.E.I. -- all those potatoes

Grey Cup games
Ten degrees
[???]
Studebaker
Diefenbaker
[???]
Carroll Baker

Canada's strong and free
Please save a place for me

Not going to watch the show, it's terrible.

I'm interested in the voting results though. Will be nice to see where Crosby ends in Hart voting. Or how the votes distribute between the three Norris finalists. Or can Price snatch all 30 GM votes for Vezina. Etc.

The All-Star team will be interesting to see too.

 

[Account Terminated]

Looking for Price to sweep. I'd love to see Subban win a second Norris, if for anything to watch the reaction of some, but EK is likely going to win it.

 

[Plural]

You mean Lindsay/Vezina/Hart for Price? Would be pretty awesome. I doubt it happens though.

 

[MasterDecoy]

think price sweeps, doty or subban should get the norris but i see EK winning it by a small margin. and for the love of god, someone give alcohol to someone

 

[danishh]

You mean Lindsay/Vezina/Hart for Price? Would be pretty awesome. I doubt it happens though.

+the shared Jennings with Crawford.

Id actually expect him to sweep. Vezina is easily his, Hart should be too. Only question mark is the Lindsay, and I think the players probably have it to him too.

I think Ek won the Norris, biggest question mark for me is the calder.

 

[Plural]

Yeah, it's not like we have that much of a clue. But the safest bet for Lindsay is Ovechkin. Not cause he definitely is the most outstanding, but cause NHL players historically vote for big time offensive/goal-scoring players.

I'm a huge Ovechkin fan but I would still root for Price to sweep it all. It's so rare to happen for a goalie. I just don't think it will happen.

Hart will most likely be Price. Vezina is given.

 

[kingsholygrail]

We need more Cuba Gooding Jr.

 

[Sam Spade]

Ovechkin and Subban will be the only interesting people there so I hope one of them wins something.

I also think Ovechkin deserves the Lindsay.

Twitter is the best way to "watch" this show.

 

[HanSolo]

Going to the red carpet then not even watching the event.

 

[danishh]

This Ron MacLean bit from 96 was pretty good.

 

[Lollipop]

Too much NA:s in these awards. That's why I think it's so boring and uninteresting.

The only thing that would make this awards interesting if Karlsson wins a very well-deserved second norris. But with all biased North Americans out there I wouldn't be surprised if Karlsson is robbed.

Go Erik Karlsson!

 

[HarrisonFord]

He's ready

 

[Buckets and Gloves]

Wow that video in op lol

 

[Loff]

Tie Domi will bring home the Calder again.

 

[vippe]

Tie Domi will bring home the Calder again.

haha never saw that before

I'm thinking Crosby comes top 5 in hart voting and takes the second team center

 

[Plural]

I'm thinking Crosby comes top 5 in hart voting and takes the second team center

Yeah. He will battle the first team C with Tavares and it might not be completely out of reach for Crosby to snatch the 1st Team spot. Unlikely though. He's at least going to be 2nd Team C.

As for the Hart voting, I could see him being as high as 4th. But not lower than 5th. So, we are on the same page.

 

[JA]

According to diehard hockey fan Vince Vaughn, Afghani Malkin won the 2012 Hart Trophy.

 

[1Gold Standard]

The NHL award show is as useless as the NHL All Star game. It has no entertainment value imo.

but for those who like watching it, enjoy the nonsense.

You have a pretty ridiculous opinion. Want more European representation? Hope that they improve. Or would you like participation ribbons for everyone?

 

[KaseMeOutside]

i dont care
i wont watch
they only attract c and d list celebrities

it doesn't make the event seem important
