So NBC is not showing a replay of this game on any of their networks? I can't find anything. If that's the case, why are they shocked when their ratings suck?

Helene Elliott retweeted NBCSportsPR saying a replay of the game won't air today but tomorrow. NBCSN, 4:30 p.m. EST/1:30 p.m. PST. I guess because of the increased interest. (Oshie is trending on Twitter and even People.com has an article on him so I'm sure NBC wants time to advertise the replay on Sunday.)

ETA: is there any way to turn off this darn auto-correct?

I know I've complained about other members acknowledging the main boards, but I must admit, for an enthusiast site that is supposedly going to have educated hockey fans, there are a ton of really ****ing stupid people on here. How so many people can say blatantly false things and have other people agree shocks me. Welcome to the internet I guess.

My hockey IQ isn't on the high end, I try to only stir the pot with quips and not direct hockey related info, and i consider myself a little on the unbiased side.:dunno:

For instance, I just realized today why the moorings in NHL are neon yellow, Net dislodging saved our ass. Almost like that guy that blocked a goal in FIFA S.Africa with his hand, he wasn't a goalie.:phew:

I don't have cable or satellite, I sorry.
 
Slava Voynov. I'm really quite irritated with this dude. He basically planted a seed in every NHL referees head going forward this season and seasons to come. It may seem minuscule but what happens if Quick's benefit of the doubt is taken away in a big moment such as a playoff game?

Voynov owes a little more loyalty to the team that pays him millions of dollars. I'm not saying he has to play any less hard for his country but keep your ****ing mouth shut when it comes to your teammates.

I guess it's just the eastern european style to just whine and complain. ****ing bull****.

It will suck if it somehow ends up coming back to bite the Kings. Just have to work around it.
 
I'm sorry but you guys are making the whole Voynov quote a big deal.

Lol, kingkopitar thinks someone is overreacting.

It is a big deal. I read the entire quote and it's a clear betrayal of trust. He needs to keep his mouth shut regardless of how he feels. Even though I'm enjoying the games, I don't even care about this tournament or it's results. I care about the money the Kings pay Voynov (my money) and the rest of this NHL season.

You just don't call a member of your team as important asa goaltender a cheater, ya just don't.

You act like he trashed the entire management and the whole team. Relax, take a step away from the keyboard.

With all respect, given your history around here I don't think you are in any position to tell anyone to relax.

I really don't care about my history on here, this is a hockey website.

So with all respect, I'm sure DL had a nice chuckle with the quote and moved on with his life. DL is probably even happy to see that much passion out of Voynov.

I know you don't and that's cool.

Just when I think of overreactions, I think of you. I still appreciate your opinions but don't judge mine as over the top in any way shape or fashion because they are not.

Loyalty is one of my favorite things about hockey players and when I see players unloyal to the team that pays them so much money it really gets me going.

And I guarantee you that DL did not find it funny at all.

EDIT: I regret the Eastern European remark. People are people and that, admittedly, was over the top.

Sure, if you think so. I'm passionate at times, but I think you confuse me not being a gigantic homer like some people on here, but I guess you can confuse that with over reacting.

Voynov gets paid to play hockey, he can voice his opinion, but if it's damaging, he shouldn't. And that wasn't damaging.

It's cool, man. I actually apologize, not looking to pick fights around here but this one just got me a little fired up. I largely disagree with you on almost everything but I do appreciate your passion as a brother Kings fan.

But for now, **** Voynov. He'd better come back very motivated or else he will be on my (very short) ****list.
 
It may be damaging what Voynov has said. I think he just showed how it is around these games. Your team allegiance stops when you put on your countries' sweater! Friends are enemies and enemies are now friends. Once we get back to the NHL we are friends/teammates/co-workers again!

It's cool man. We're both passionate which is good.

That can be a good thing, which is why I sort of want Slovenia to lose, I want Kopitar to return with a fire. It's pretty mean, but the kings don't need casual Kopitar to return back from the Olympics.

I think some success with Slovenia could actually help springboard his motivation with the Kings.

I was pretty happy with their performance today, pretty cool to see em' make history.
