Yes, make up facts about the other debater so that you can attempt to win. That's Waldorf's way.

Thank god I'm not in R&P against him at times.

No but it wouldn't have killed him to make a save or 2 with the game on the line.

If Raask was in between the pipes for the Leafs (where he should have fawkin been) Toronto is now up 1-0 on the Hawks.

Nobody ever denied Quick let in a soft goal here and there.
He's did that last year too. Won a Conn Smythe.

Quick KEPT them in the series, with amazing saves.
When the team was down, Quick picked up the slack.

....remember kids, according to Yummy, the Kings had no issue scoring goals, their offense was a well oil machine, scoring goals at will, the defense was most excellent, if only Quick would have played better.




...because clearly that series was full of blow-out scores....oh wait a minute....never mind.

Thank you for your co-operation.

Well, to be fair, Quick did get pulled for letting in 4 goals in less than half a game.

I'm here to weed out the "negativity", and to bring sanity to the double-zero odds on having a average goaltender to win The Cup nonsense.

....but not even the mighty Aquabats can fix that kind of nonsense

I've got bad news for you yummy. The B's will all be wearing aquabats t-shirts under their sweaters on Saturday. There's a lot of evil clowns in Chicago who are gonna get punched in the face.

Tis true. I've suffered bitterly watching the Hawks play like during the dark days.

Kids like srika come popping in here during the up years...they have no idea what it is like to taste the bitterness of defeat and humiliation.


Sniff.

37000 of those posts are bitterness, anger, and contempt...then, some of us tasted Cup glory in recent years.

So, the bitterness, anger, and contempt going forward is mostly relegated to the Leaf fans in this thread.

Deano talking with 10 teams about trading Bernier.

With the cap, it was all a matter of time.
I think Deano does not want to be a spectator at this years draft (and really who doesn't want to be a big part of this great draft).....I think he moves Bernier for at BEST a 1st, or at least an early 2nd rounder.

I don't think Deano wants a roster player back, considering the cap.
...unless it's a package deal with somebody going with Bernier.

dom hates us all.

But, probably not black label since half his Cup Final roster for Boston is comprised of Leaf blue-chippers.


But, srika, you know that the Leafs are an NHL minor league farm team for the Boston Bruins, right?

Interesting market for goalies this year with a handful going into UFA. Whether they'll hit the jackpot is another story. Clearly, Bryzgalov was a great lesson learned.

That's Eagle "Bones" Falconhawk, Eagle Falconhawk is his real name, Bones is just his nickname. You're going to face the wrath of the M.C. Bat Commander, they may even call in The Baron Von Tito, and Jimmy the Robot to teach you a lesson.

They are your average ordinary SUPERHUMAN publishers of evil ROCK & ROLL BAND!!
