I thought he was awful at it. He rarely seemed to ever win them and his "checks" looked like love taps that he only did because coach said finish all your checks. I imagined him "hitting" people and saying, oh oh oh I'm sorry sir I will try to make this as gentle as possible so I don't hurt you. Iginla has a hell of a shot. That's the only nice thing I can say about the man. Completely unimpressed by the rest of his game.shmenguin wrote:I dont know...I thought winning battles was the one thing iginla was good at.

I'm with sniper on Iginla. I thought Iginla was way too easy to move off the puck and weak on his skates while with the Pens. He was pretty much just a big right-handed shot.
I do think, though, he has been a bit better for Boston. Maybe the full off-season to get in shape and acclimated helped. I still wonder if he'll burn out down the stretch.

Watching him in the Olympics when his team might not be as good defensively could be entertaining.

Who the hockey sticks is Michael Stone?
He's tied for the league lead in goals by defenseman, with Karlsson. 7 goals 0 assists! He just blistered a slap shot past Varlamov ...from the neutral zone.

I like how on the ticker it reads "Rask gets slight nod in Vezina debate" as the goal trickles in behind him...meow wrote:Ladies and Gentlemen - Boston's shut down goalie:

Leonsis talking to Gretzky will make a great gif. Gretzky looked like he'd rather be anywhere else in the world.

I'm trying to watch habs game but can't because my tv automatically takes my center ice feed to hd but the hd feed is blacked out.
I'm in the Philly market but can't find where the game would be.

For the East vs West disparity in points, how much can we attribute to the 1 month tour by the ball of suck that was the Rangers to start the season?

It's evened out a tad of late. It honestly doesn't even matter because in the end the Stanley cup final determines the premier conference in my opinion.

It might have been on CSN. They show games that are broadcast on CSN in other markets occasionally.pens2005 wrote:I'm trying to watch habs game but can't because my tv automatically takes my center ice feed to hd but the hd feed is blacked out.

I'd say Carolina looked like dog crap in this game against Boston, but that would be mean to dog crap. It looks like half of the Canes D-men are playing for Boston. They just keep giving them the puck when they are supposed to be exiting the zone.

Wow, Chara slashes at Tlusty's stick from behind him while he is on a breakaway. He ends up breaking Tlusty's stick and he somehow doesn't get a penalty, let alone a penalty shot.
