CP2 wrote:Why did the Oil trade Beurgeon?

This is discussed in the NPR thread of the trade...

But the long and short of it is...he sucks...can't play D, never hits, never ever...turns it over, shoots with his head down, misses shots constantly, most of the time creating odd man rushes the other way...

Without looking, I'd say it's safe to say he has more than twice as many giveaways as takeaways, I can only see Hemsky or Sykora hitting less on that Oilers team, I'm thinking he leads the team in missed shots, is last among d-men in blocked shots...

Grebeshkov is miles ahead of him defensively...

Staal,Malkin,Crosby,Gonchar and whitney should be on the top PP unit.
Recchi is 2nd on the team in PP goals. How can you take him off the ice for Staal?
Someone said that a few days ago. I think they want those guys on the ice the whole game. I also thought Whitney sucked and should be traded. At least that was what everyone was saying at the beginning of the season.

Actually unless the NHL.com stats update real time... Recchi Tied Malkin for the PP goals on the season today, with his 2 today. They are tied at 13 PP goals each. Ouellet has 9... then everyone else behind him.

i've never seen that arena from the inside, so what's actually the problem with it?

Says who? Jean Claude Van Damm? A guy who likes only one boob?

From the outside maybe....definitely not the inside...both these rinks are crap on the inside.

Nice of melichar to intercept the pass from Staal to Malkin to kill the rush out of the zone. WTF was he doing there?

maybe you are luckier than me.

This was another suggestion. I think it helped Gaucho who is in Germany. I could be wrong though. Good luck!

You need to use a proxy server to fool the internet into thinking you are from somewhere else.

Google how to use it, and then find a proxy server. the one I am using is working, it is, it should work for everyone else too.

It's delapitated. Broken seats, horrible concessions, bathrooms, no luxury in luxury boxes.

1980 called! they want their crappy arena back.
