jodcon Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 Wild looked good beating the Avs, Parise with 2 assists in the second period, they could be an exciting team this year. And of course after the game the Avs announcers with their usual crap..."Wild didn't win this game, Avs lost it...blah, blah, blah". I can't stand this team, we get them all the time because they're considered our 'home team' in Montana and their announcers are the biggest homers ever. Nobody ever beats them, it's either 'we let them win' or a screw job. Quote
passit_offthegoalie Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 Good day for former Sioux. the usual suspects: Oshie, Zajac, and Toews scored goals. Parise with two assists. Matt Greene with an assist. 3pt night for Osh. The Blues are gonna be good this year. Quote

Then those announcers would feel better about the asinine comments they make during games. Quote
Siouxperfan7 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Stafford's fight from this afternoon. Atta boy Drew!! Tough matchup but he held his own! Quote
jodcon Posted January 21, 2013 Author Posted January 21, 2013 Atta boy Drew!! Tough matchup but he held his own! Yeah Drew bit off a big chunk there, Hartnell's never afraid to goon it up, wasn't he the guy who bit somebody a few years ago? Quote
jimdahl Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Ouch The Capitals are winless in their first three games for the first time since 1993-94. The Capitals are the only team remaining in the National Hockey League without a point and have been outscored 14-6. They've led for only 2:32 in three games or 180 minutes, are 2-for-12 (16.6 percent) on the power play and have allowed seven power-play goals in 18 times short (61.1 percent penalty kill). At least last night they didn't look completely lost like they did the first two games. The short season is going to be tough on teams that have undergone personnel changes. Detroit, Philly, and the Rangers are also all looking rough early. With only 42 games, these missed points are going to keep someone out of the playoffs. Quote

How long can Caps wait for him? Also interesting take I saw on Nail Yakapov's celebration was that Cherry will rip it and when he did that to Ovechkin is when Ovi started sliding. I don't necessarily buy it, but I'm sure players don't take kindly to the over the top celebrations. Quote
jimdahl Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 *couch* 48 games Ack, of course. (though I think you meant *cough* ) I'm also seeing some stuff that Ovechkin is just not the same player. How long can Caps wait for him? Also interesting take I saw on Nail Yakapov's celebration was that Cherry will rip it and when he did that to Ovechkin is when Ovi started sliding. I don't necessarily buy it, but I'm sure players don't take kindly to the over the top celebrations. Frankly, I think the coaches have been beating it out of him. To me it's sort of the same as when a young running QB hits the NFL -- he has a couple awesome years of run & gun, but if that doesn't win a Superbowl the coaches start trying to coach the run out of him. Then everyone's surprised that he's not quite as dynamic an individual as he used to be. They let Ovechkin be himself for a few years and then had to make some changes because they were exiting the playoffs "too early". Now he's a cautious, two-way, setup player. Still very valuable to a good team, but he's not on a particularly great team anymore, so can't carry it by himself because he's been trained not to. IMHO. Quote
MattC Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 Toews just had a very nice goal. I'm loving Game Center. Blackhawks game on the computer and Sioux game on the TV. Quote
Oxbow6 Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 Lots of WCHA flavor in the Wild/Blues game...Parise ties it at 1. Quote
jimdahl Posted February 8, 2013 Posted February 8, 2013 Apparently the Caps just don't like lockouts... Caps as low as it gets, but they've been here before Record through 11 games 1995 2-7-2 2013 2-8-1 Points 1995 6 2013 5 GF 1995 20 2013 25 GA 1995 30 2013 41 Quote

jimdahl Posted March 22, 2013 Posted March 22, 2013 Brodeur credited with his 3rd career goal. (It wasn't really him). Quote
jimdahl Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 I've watched a lot of hockey and don't remember ever seeing this before... Video Basically, Ovechkin got a breakaway when the opposing goalie was pulled, then a player from the Tampa Bay bench stuck his stick onto the ice to try to impede his play. That resulted in an automatic goal for Ovechkin (who followed through and put it in the net anyway). I don't remember a rule leading to an automatic goal. I guess the actual infraction would normally lead to a penalty shot, but since it was an empty net it's just ruled a goal. Quote

Yeah, right - you just wanted us to watch that because of the Maria Kirilenko sighting! Quote
82SiouxGuy Posted April 9, 2013 Posted April 9, 2013 http://www.nhl.com/ice/page.htm?id=26348 56.7 Awarded Goal - If, when the goalkeeper has been removed from the ice, any member of his team (including the goalkeeper) not legally on the ice, including the Coach or non-playing Club personnel, interferes by means of his body, stick or any other object or piece of equipment with the movements of the puck or an opposing player in the neutral or attacking zone, the Referee shall immediately award a goal to the non-offending team. When a Coach or non-playing Club personnel is guilty of such an act, he shall be automatically suspended from the game, ordered to the dressing room and the matter will be reported to the Commissioner for possible further disciplinary action.

jimdahl Posted April 9, 2013 Posted April 9, 2013 http://www.nhl.com/ice/page.htm?id=26348 Wow, amazing anyone thought to write that rule and put it in the books. Like I said, I assumed it was a more general "penalty shots are instead goals if the goalie is out" type rule. Thanks! Quote

farce poobah Posted April 14, 2013 Posted April 14, 2013 Today's Blues-Blackhawks game is pretty intense, compelling old-style NHL hockey. NBC's first intermission report: "Jonathan Toews: The Perfect Captain." Quote
