    I'm pretty sure that's how he normally talks, you're just so used to "The Rock" persona it sounds weird.

    Would happen a lot when they had a shitload of talent on D that would just go nuts every other year and they'd be top 5 in the league, force a ton of turnovers, and had Hester blowing up when morons were stupid enough to keep punting to him.

    It's stuff like this that make me chuckle:http://www.stltoday.com/sports/colum...e636e610c.html The stuff at the bottom about Troy Brouwer was amusing, brings up his 4 goals and 4 assists in 19 games in 2010 when Blackhawks won the Cup, ignores the fact that other than that year Brouwer has...

    He'll likely still be a valuable veteran with proven playoff production so he'll fetch at least a pick or two.

    I'll miss Ward a ton. Guy does go through periods in the regular season when he seems to disappear a little, but he's been good for around a ~20 goals/82 game average the last 3 years. Shows up big time in the playoffs too, beast on the boards. Great for your middle 6 and can fill in anywhere...

    I'll wait to see how they do it, but it would be a bit of a let down if that's the only twist to the show. Even so, it's been really good tv through 2 episodes and I'm curious where they go with everything.

    I'm telling you right now people better not sleep on Columbus either. They went gangbusters in their finish of the season last year and really might have been in contention if not for all the injuries earlier in the season for them. With the addition of Saad and likely better health (probably...

    While Brouwer puts up good boxcars in the regular season, given our need to sign our RFA's (Holtby, Johannson, and Kuznetsov)...I would have considered almost any way to shed either Brouwer or Laich's deal. Brouwer's is obviously a lot better than Laich's, and he will get you ~20 goals a year...

    What do you do if you keep exiting the playoffs in Game 7 heartbreakers? You sign the guy that's never lost a Game 7 (7-0). Welcome to DC, Justin Williams. Good money, good term, fills a hole on RW for us. If Kuznetsov and Burakovsky come along like we expect them to, our top 6 should be...

    I'm shocked Green only got that deal. I could have seen the $6M AAV, but for longer term. Considering the other D men deals handed out he was worth more on the open market I think. That said, glad the Caps aren't going to pay him $6M a year to be a 3rd pairing D. We'd even moved him off the...

    Pens should be interesting, you might not know 6 or 7 of the forwards they dress every night, but they might light it up with their top guys. Surprised at all the wording for the conditions on the picks going either way too. There is a slim chance Toronto wouldn't even get a 1st rounder out of...

    Whole lot of rustle in this thread. It's a different season, a different story, a different dynamic with 4 characters.

    Normally you'd think they'd stretch it out over a full season...with this show, I'd say the over/under is 3.5 before it's back to someone maybe finding out about Mike.

    Boston went full retard on the Hamilton deal. Then they fleeced the Kings for Lucic. What in the fucking fuck. Caps are like, have Holtby plus at least 2 other goalie prospects, lets draft another one in Round 1 who is signed for THREE MORE YEARS in the KHL. I mean fuck I'm all about...

    Could really care less about the Brady appeal. Even at 4 games, I still expect Pats to win that division and be in play for contender status. It'll likely get reduced, because reasons...mostly because it's silly as fuck to begin with. OTA's are a weird time of year, get trickles of info, but...

    Cap going to $71.4M apparently. Sharp being actively shopped by Blackhawks, expect even more moves from them. Toronto saying they're willing to take on a little salary back in any move for Kessel, but nothing close to his dollars/term. Will Price win Hart and Vezina, etc, etc, etc.

    Thought first episode was very good, people forget that it's going to take longer to flesh out the characters when there are 4 versus 2. Also Season 1 kind of bounced back and forth from flashback to their original investigation to the present when the other two cops were interviewing them...

    I don't think anyone was really trying to equate Kimmo's going out a Cup winner to Borque's legendary run with the Avs, simply noting he's another guy who had a really solid career and got close a couple times but finally goes out a winner. Regardless of the how much or little he played it's...

    This is true of course, but it's not like Chicago hasn't had to move a good portion of their team because of cap issues. After their 1st Cup of this little run they had to move quite a few guys out, and still retooled to come back and win 2 more. Funny how Hossa lost in 2 straight Finals...

    Cersei's story is one of the plots that isn't completely caught up to the books yet, and you kind of need her going full on burn everything mode and Kevan coming back to help restore order before his death will even mean something...so yeah still possible we could see that all play out next season.

    Kings have had a great run last couple of years before this one, but Chicago has truly taken over the crown from the Red Wings at this point as the franchise to emulate. Tampa is going to be scary with virtually all of their team intact as well. Pretty great season, now the long fucking wait...

    Scary thing is Chicago is doing this playing really only 4.5 D men. They're one of only 2 teams in the playoffs (Calgary is the other) to only have 5 D men averaging more than 10 minutes of ice time a game. Keith is a goddamn freak of nature.
