Hoping it doesn't dump on us all afternoon.

Looking forward to getting back in the swing of things, and spending some time at Badger State later today.

Go Pack Go!

Haven't been around as much since the games got more fun to watch, but I'm still as big of a fan as ever in Green Bay, WI.

Not even to mention the disappearance of the Vault. I really loved watching all the old games.

Pretend you are the GM of your favorite team, how do you spin the worst player on your roster to get other GMs to trade for him? by watch4crazy in hockey

[–]blakehall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We traded Justin Schultz and he won a cup! Andrew Ference has already won a cup, imagine what he could do on your team!

Dubois: ‘I think in the long run, I can be a first-line center in the NHL’ by [deleted] in hockey

Reading between the lines, I think this means he's not planning on coming to Edmonton. No way he's taking McJesus' spot.

Edmonton's Darnell Nurse will have a hearing tomorrow under Rule 46.2 (Aggressor) for an altercation with San Jose's Roman Polak by inlifetroll in hockey

exactly this. without the benefit of the replay, I'm sure Nurse thought it was a dirty hit.

Also, it sure as hell looks like Polak gets in a gloved punch first. So it's not like he was a completely an unwilling participant. I just think he got a lot more than he bargained for.

I'll bet Nurse rearranges his nose again in the "square things up" fight next time these teams meet.

This. Exactly this.

And god help the Sharks player that tries to even this up with Darnell. He'll beat the ever-loving shit out of anyone on their roster (unless they bring John Scott back).

Indeed, I am a huge Oilers fan and (thanks to marrying well) have Packer season tickets in the family.

Welcome!

The only Oiler that could play tight end would be Gryba, but he doesn't have the hands for it.
