NHL 2010/2011

Fuck.

Wow, surprised that got to air.

And kinda surprised they showed the inside of the locker room during the coach 'speech'

[Guest The EWOompa Loompa]

That's...kinda the point of the show.

[Ruki]

....I didn't realize it was a show until I looked into it more :/

[Cactus Drags]

You're an idiot.

I have watched

about eighteen times now, and I still piss myself laughing. It might be the funniest thing I've ever seen.

[Enter Blue Guy]

I think his fight a few weeks ago when he went Carlo ColaiaLiddell on Keith Ballard was funnier only because that's the last thing I ever excepted Carlo to do. http://www.hockeyfights.com/fights/99620

What the fuck. This waffles shit...

I don't know whether to shake my head or support it.

John MacLean out in New Jersey.

Jacques Lemaire in in New Jersey.

[Cactus Drags]

What started this whole waffle thing anyway?

EDIT: Nevermind, I actually read the article >_>

Still weird.

[Guest Mr. Potato Head]

Nobody really knows.

[Damian WayLNKe]

Suck it Crosby.

[Ruki]

NHL name change trend? I can't think of any right now

[Guest Mr. Potato Head]

WJHC trivia: Since the breakup of the USSR, Japan (1993), Poland (1999) and France (2002) have all made the top flight of the tournament. I don't remember any of that.

[SeanDMan]

I remember both Poland and France.

It's natural for a weak nation to make the top level because of the relegation system. I think it's 2 up/2 down. With that system in place, you're always going to have a shit team pop up for one year because they had a good (overperforming) run at Div 2, and then get promptly destroyed in Div 1.

[Guest Mr. Potato Head]

Oh sure, but those are more often the traditional leap-frog teams like Germany, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Belarus, Austria, Latvia, Switzerland before the last few years...

...the Leafs don't want me as their fan.

I don't pay attention to the score, they're winning 1-0!

I check the score, they go down 2-1.

I leave and come back, and they're up 4-2.

....now it's 5-4 >_<

Edit: Look! 5-5! Damn you Leafs, damn you

[Guest Mr. Potato Head]

This is a crazy collapse by the Leafs.

I can't even remember the last time a hockey team blew a three-goal lead in the third period.

It goes both ways apparently.

[Toe]

Leafs just crushed the Thrashers. This season has sucked, so it was fun to have one of these games go our way finally.

[Cornwhall]

I find it funny that two teams with a Maple Leaf logo (and a Schenn on both teams!) collapsed in the third period, only for one to lose, and for one to win.

Needless to say, that WJHC Gold Medal Game left a bad taste in the Canadian in me, that was quickly drowned away by Grabovski's awesome shootout spinorama goal, and the Leafs destroying the Thrashers on Friday.

[Plubby]

That gold medal game made me so happy.
