And away we go NHL thread!!!!

Personally I hope Comcast and DirecTV don't resolve the issue. Forcing the NHL to look at another carrier. Versus sucks.

Nhl is already signed with vs. thru the 2011 season, i believe.

[Jack Napalm]

Damn. I was thinking it was 2010.

Damn. I was thinking it was 2010.

well, its the 2010-2011 season, meaning next year vs. will still have their deal. Unless the nhl forces their hand.

the predators are are kicking tail.

This next week is the test fo them they have a home and home set with my Blackhawks. Both these teams are hot as hell but jesus we just shut the Redwings out twice in three days while beating the Sharks in between. Huet is playing OK but Niemmi has I think 4 shutouts in 9 games started. MY disbelief is high watching these hawks, Chicago teams that don't have Jordan on them have such an amaing way of disappointing you but they really look real and they have most the key players locked up.

Tets, Hawks beat Grand Rapids Griffins, not the Detroit Red Wings . 8-9 regulars on IR and Rafalski out with the flu....over half their payroll is injured...yikes!

I juts hope they can stop the bleeding, get some bodies back in the line-up and secure a playoff spot.

[clifffclaven]

Yeah Im a huge hawks fan, but... that game was pretty brutal. The hawks didnt look all that great last night, detroit just looked that bad..

the coyotes are kicking tail.

[clifffclaven]

Hawks first overall now??! wow. Have they ever won the presidents trophy?

edit: won it in 1990-91

[atomic charvel guy]

they're on a roll with two eggs and butter right now.
that was some 3rd period last night.

[Shawn Lutz]

about the 1/2 point and Wings are 2 points out sitting 9th in the West....yikes..for the first time in what, 18 years or so? I have a real fear the Wings wont make the cut and be golfing during round one...fawk! They cant score, need Yzerman to lace em back up until we get Z, the Mule and Kronner back

[atomic charvel guy]

i will bet you anything Shawn that the Wings get in the playoffs.

Team Sweden posted their olympic roster.

I love the quote from Samuelsson hehe.

"Notably absent from the list is Detroit's Johan Franzen, who is currently nursing a knee injury. Another notable absentee is Vancouver's Mikael Samuelsson, who pulled no punches in discussing the snub.

"Probably going to get in trouble for this, but they can go (expletive deleted) themselves,""

batty-
Hrundi V. Bahkshi has been activated from the Rangers minor league team for tomorrow nights game against the flyers!!!

[Hellbat]

My advice would be to not let him skate anywhere near Lundquist. It could make Ballard's chop to the head of Vokoun look like a french kiss.
