147 pages in the 2010-11 Thread. Here start's next season.

Now the season's over, Boston has the cup for the summer, but it's all up for grabs come autumn. Bump it through the slow summer months as transactions occur

Oh, and to start some tradition: LOL @ Anaheim.


Who's winning the cup next?

Yeah he really seems to be the glue for our D. We've been looking terribly sloppy all over the place the last couple games though. I think they said he's doing well and should be skating in practice this weekend hopefully, who knows when we'll get him back though.

Shenn is out for 4-6 weeks with a broken foot. He wasn't doing a whole ton for us so far anyway though.

Hoping I get power back at my house in time to see the game tonight, I lost it at like noon.

Brent Burns has been such a great addition so far... He's outpacing a bunch of our forwards already, while playing pretty damn stout physical D. I'm impressed so far.

Good game for sure man! If the Pens were at 100% and started Fleury things would've been different for us. But for now my Leafs are making a nice little run. It was nice seeing Connolly put some points up, a W in Ottawa should give us some breathing space on top of the division :D Shocked @ Boston though lol

Hey look the best team in the league from last year actually showed up for a game. Apparently they're back from Maui. Maybe they'll stick around for a few games. We can only hope.

The senators are on a 6 game winning streak and Boston sits at the bottom of the standings.
What's going on here?

Ok, bear with me because this is going to sound pretty weird, but just let me finish and then think it over a bit. Is it possible that Ottawa is... get this... actually not altogether terrible?

Give it a month. Theyll hit a 8 game winless streak soon enough. They are most futile against the worst teams. Teams even they should beat.

This is an excerpt from an article I read this morning, I found it rather funny. Those of you from Vancouver will know the columnist who wrote this, the infamous Tony Gallagher.

"Evidently the Vancouver Canucks had a Halloween party scheduled for Rogers Arena Saturday night and almost to a man the players came dressed as themselves.

That's a radical departure from the costumes they've been wearing since the season started, many of them coming to the rink dressed as ghosts or lazy guys with a half-way decent excuse for not getting the job done, like working a lot of overtime in the spring."

I am really liking Booth, Hodgson, Kesler. I mean they really don't have much to show but they are all playing really well. Just my observation from watching snippets of the games.

"and boston begins the march out of the darkness." - jack edwards' sing off tonight. true words jack.

good win. especially against a team coming off a 6 game winning streak. 13 bruins with points. 2 fights. physical play. not gonna say we're back yet, but i liked what I saw tonight. now we need to win in toronto to officially start the come back.

Who? The Jackets still only have the one win over the Wings. If you're referring to the Oilers they're leading the western conference and clearly are no longer the worst team in the league.

Hahaha my firm seats are pretty much where the camera is there. Those boards have some give to 'em. Yeah Alex, make that bugger spill that 8 dollar beer.

Speaking of Edler he had another 3 point game and is currently 15th in league scoring. So much for "the Canucks will have no back end scoring without Ehrhoff". Who has 5 fewer points, by the way.

By the way, does anyone know. why the Canucks moved their practice facility to Calgary? I like theSaddledome okay I guess but it seems like a long trek just to run drills against an AHL team.

I don't really dislike Boston for a second, I think they're a quality organization and a great squad...

...but I wouldn't pass up an opportunity to flog that idiot for the bullshit he spews. I hate guys that focus on the sky that's falling against their own team. It's like Detroit fans when they lose - they feel theyre entitled or something and that the NHL wants them to lose. It's horsedung.

saw him last week in person for the first time as I was walking home from work in front of the garden before the habs game...dude is tiny

no joke he must be 5'6" with boots on and looks like he could get knocked over by a stiff breeze...I was surprised I even recognized him, but that toucan sam beak sticks out like no other...i guess the camera does really add 10 lbs

im sure you could take him

And Edler is way better defensively. I almost feel not signing Ehrhoff is a good thing, it gives Edler the opportunity to get some really good playing time with good players.
