hamato are we the only one's keeping this thread alive? Where are you hockey fans? Surely some Penguin fans out there? Flyers? The Cup is right around the corner:headbang2 Lets hear it!!!!! :mwave:

HOCKEY FANS??? dude after reading all your posts I would not have guessed that your a fan of the sport.:ROFL::ROFL::)
 
:iagree:
 
Im the "hockey" fan, you guys are NHL fans. I love the game of hockey, but when the great game is braught in to commerce, we must watch out for alterations of the great game. When you sacrifice tradition for a little money, you get neither tradition nor money in the end. So, if I dont fight for the game of hockey who will?
 
Penguin fans, you're team is in for a lot of penalty kills in the Cup. The wings are going to get 30 power plays on you. Brace you're selves. :naughty:

I am also a hockey fan. I watch the NHL the most because it gets the most coverage, not because it's the best. I agree that the NHL game now is not the best, but I'm not going to stop watching because of it. While I am against primarily everything that Gary does, I am not for bringing back all aspects of the older style, I think some changes are good.

For someone to claim that they are that big of a hockey fan, yet can be that blinded by what they think of one team, sounds more like sour grapes than real knowledge. If you had any idea what was going on, you would know that the league would kill to have the Pen's win the series, with Crosby, Malkin, Staal, Fleury, and Hossa, that would be great for the league's publicity to say the least.

Just to reiterate, you still have yet to address the problem with the Stars getting every call, that goes for 3 straight penalties in this first period, and the 2 valid goals disallowed for the wings, and the invalid goal that was allowed from the Stars. Or do you want to just throw mud, and hope that makes the rest of us forget that you have no real argument.
 
The way it is now there is a foul on almost every posession but the officials are going to call it (for what ever reason) when they feel their ready. And so you get in to this game where, you're doing nothing but trying to draw a petty foul. And to me, it gets frustrating to watch, cause I just want to see some hockey. And yes there a few on the Stars that play this crap as well. It seems to be worse in the West, dunno why.
