The Rangers are a train wreck.

Torts might actually have to blame himself for this one.....ah who am I kidding, he will blame the underachieving, over paid Richards and Nash.

Meanwhile Gaborik is laughing.

Rangers have made the playoffs 7 of the last 8 seasons, certainly not too much of a train wreck.....a multi-car pileup? Maybe. Edmonton.....that right there is a nuclear disaster.

I miss Gaborik.......his jersey is still hanging in the closet

dom

He was entertaining on TSN IIRC.

Moog-Type-S

Sell that to the Sharks too.

They make the playoffs, and never win either.

Yumcha

I don't see the Rangers as a trainwreck per se. Lots of talent and gritty players on that team.

Love the Top 4 D and Callahan can play on my team any day. Fine line between success and failure in the NHL these days though and perhaps, the system needs work and so, makes sense to punt the coach.

Yumcha

There are more teams in "disarray"...I'd count the Flames, Oilers, Flyers, and even Canucks amongst those.

Yumcha

Teams with a solid core and farm system and can stay in the upper tier for awhile are: Boston, LA, Chicago, Detroit, and Pittsburgh (although, other than Despres, I don't think the Pens have much coming up in the pipeline -- going strictly with their current core of Crosby/Malkin)...


And oh look...these are the teams remaining in the playoffs.

Moog-Type-S

One says train wreck, the other disarray.

What a mess.

Rags, Nucks, Sharks, Ducks gonna be an interesting off season.

Moog-Type-S

Game 7 tonight.

Watcha drinking Statler and Fibbi?

Asahi?

Leinenkugel's Summer Shandy!!! My lemonade masquerading as beer

Yumcha

Believe it. Still have 3 cans left.

If the Hawks lose, I'm chugging scotch though.

Yumcha

I'll laugh if it is Alain Vigneault.

I'd say Keenan if he didn't just go to Russia.

Yumcha

^ Keenan? No.

If anyone, I'd say Ruff would be a good candidate.

We still got plenty in the farm

Yumcha

Okeydokey.

Sorry...I have nothing but almighty high-praise for your perfect franchise.

Moog-Type-S

3 cans?!?!?

What do you drink a half a can a game?

Yumcha

Dude, I have a newborn right now...not exactly opportunity to get too much.

Moog-Type-S

I hear ya.

Nothing like waking up drunk in the middle of the night to take care of the crying baby.

....don't ask me how I know :wink:

Don't worry, the rest of us hockey fans will pick up the slack for ya

Game 7
Game 7
Game 7

Yumcha

Already sucks I'm working and cannot spend enough time with the little guy. So, I'd like to try and remember our time together.

Being shartfaced is not usually going to work...nor will it put me in the good graces with the First Lady if I'm out cold because I'm drunk.

Fibonacci

That's more like it Yummy cakes. For a while there, it felt like the earth was spinning a bit off its axis without your irrational hatred.

Hopefully this one will be one for the ages.

Fibonacci

On my best behavior for the rest of this week.

Truth be told, am in the doghouse a bit since we cancelled our trip up to GTA for the holiday weekend so I could attend game six. Dom invited me to hit the crack pipe with him and his boy Rob Ford but we'll have to take a rain check.

I'm gonna down an Asahi just to steal Yummy's mojo though.

Seems like you have nothing but assumptions and negativity

I could care less, just find it funny

Best hockey thread post ever

Yumcha

I do...?

dom

Dude, I told you that in confidence

Yumcha

I would think you were drunk/stoned since Game 7 between the Leaves/Bruins...?

Yumcha

Oh sorry dom. Was that comment full of assumptions and negativity...?

Yumcha

Scoreless after one. Time for a drink!

e30cabrio

Very pretty goal!

Yumcha

Since 97Ack thinks I am, I'm going to make assumptions and be as negative as possible: All of Detroit's players have ugly Moms. All of them.

Yes.

Moog-Type-S

So this is what the hawks and wings call game 7 hockey eh?

Hmmmmmmm

Moog-Type-S

So much time to play the puck.
With room to move as well.

Yumcha

Yup. They play very similarly. It's obvious that Chicago is copying Detroit's model...lots of chances traded.

Yumcha

20 minutes left. Teams that score first usually come out on top in Game 7s. Let's see if Chicago follows this trend.

Oops...was that too much assumptions and negativity?

dom

That's a terrible call and bad break for the Hawks. But how the hell was a Hawk that open and alone in the slot?!?!? Fibonacci, you sure Babcock wasn't out with Mayor Ford earlier today?

Yumcha

Wow, what a break for the Wings on that no-goal. Complete BS.


Yup, that's negativity right there.
