Official 2010-2011 NHL Thread: Vancouver suffers ARMAGEDDON! Also, Boston wins cup

Sadness:sad:

yeah pretty much…and this deal with atlanta proves it. Fuck the nhl went out of there way fighting to not move teams when he was trying to get one…now with atlanta its just like…oh no one wants to buy this team in atlanta…ok here you go take the team, no problem.

if atlanta EVER gets another team, I seriously stop watching the NHL, period

they failed miserably TWICE, learn your fucking lesson

Well, Winnipeg actually played it fair. Didn’t try to rush anything, did everything by the book.
Ballsilie tried to tamper the Predators, tried to rush things, tried to sell his OWN tickets for a team he didn’t own… Sorry man, if Hamilton wants a team, it will have to be through another owner. NHL won’t give Jim the time of day anymore.

Ughh come onnn Mavs. I don’t want the Laker’s being swept to be all for naught. :shake:

Comments on ESPN’s articles about the move are mostly negative (surprise, surprise), with quite a few people saying that players will stay away from playing in Winnipeg. To which I counter with the fact that the Wild still have a decent team, and Minnesota’s climate is basically the same.

Climate/quality of city is never the case for attracting players.
If it was, then Florida/Phoenix would be powerhouses and nobody would want to play in Detroit.

lol Who cares about that stupid Canadian sport.

yeah i don’t see that being a problem at all. they fail to realize 90% of the leauge is canadian and canadians want to play in canada.

Yup, only the Russians are divas that want to play in America. Little princesses. Like Bitchgalov.
Canucks - 0
Oilers - 1 Russian *Who barely even counts, he started his career in Winnipeg, basically a Canadian by now
Flames - 1 Russian
Sens - 1 Russian *Old and washed up, always injured
Leafs - 1 Russian
Habs - 1 Russian *Always injured

Pff

Soviet gonna stay butthurt about Ballsilie blacklisting his town from ever knowing the NHL.

I hope ASG sells Philips Arena to a competent owner and the Coyotes move to Atlanta. I wanna see him rage hard.

Good job getting that suspension there, Burrows.

Edit: Man this series is looking to be hard. So many penalties already including two double-minors.

3 more games vancouver

I will literally catch fire in pure rage. It sucks I have to wait for fucking Bettman to die/retire before my city gets the team it deserves, just because he didn’t see my city when he once glanced at a map of Canada.

lol silly bitch, you think Wade, Bosh, and Lebron joined forces for nothing? Americans fuck themselves over with sports…I hate that they have any feedback whatsoever in hockey. Just letting teams in MLB and NBA just stack all the good players on one team (Yankees, Sox, Miami, LA), and let other cities get anally raped forever.

crazy game last night. I still think it will go to 7 games

Not if bostons continues to be 0-6 on PP with 2 men advantage here and there.

Vancouver in 4 or 5

Truly the battle of Tim and Rob.

Meh, Tim had a good game…Luongo is the better goalie for sure

Chara needs to break somebody

Burrows cleared, finger bitting is ok in the NHL.

Good to know he accepts that I call him a rat.

wtf is this two day break. Canucks got no advantage for winning a series in 5 games.

Heh Manahan as a disciplinarian just seems to be kinda irony for me

i think it should be good times, when a dude fucks up he should just fight them
