All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
If you get a chance to see this game tonight watch it... The Bruins and Thrashers got into it late in their last matchup when Meyer went high on Lucic. All hell broke loose... tonight should be a physical game to say the least.
Feel free to mute, since most of you dispise Edwards.
I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?" "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet. You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.
Edwards and the FSN Pittsburgh announcers are in a dead heat for worst announcers in the NHL.
Edwards might be worse though because he is always a ***** and makes condescending remarks real casually like nobody will notice. My biggest issue with the Pens announcers is their homerism, but I guess that's to expected from any team that has had so much success recently.
Because Dishnetwork blows, I rarely get MSG on CenterIce much...These last two games against Edmonton and Calgary were on TSN and those announcers were pretty good. Called a good game and were down the middle for the most part.
They did bring up Lindy Ruff's tenure as the Sabres coach and their last point was about how long he has been coach but without much success. They were questioning why we would be here so long without winning a Cup.

What do you guys think about the hit on Lucic? I have no problem with it at all.

Its easy to see why the rest of the league hates Edwards he's as big of a homer as you get. But you have to admit it's fun to have a hometown guy be that ridiculous if its for the team you're rooting for.

There is being a homer and than there is Jack Edwards who is pretty much in a league of his own...He had no problem with the cheap shot by Lucic.
Oh my God that guy made me sick with the announcing. That was an extremely clean hit. He "might" have barely grazed the chin. He completely hit him in the chest. Then Lucic hits him while he is engaged. Real friggin brave of him. Then to suggest that Little would get killed because he tangled with Savard. I think Savard actually threw the first punch. Savard grabbed McCormick off the pile in the last game we had with Boston. Guy is going to get his clock cleaned.

By the way Mike. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree. While reading this post and watching the fight (because my oldest loves hockey fights) she said, "hey, didn't he spell despise wrong?"
