scott stevens compilation. even though he led with his elbow sometimes, i still think he is one of the all-time greats at open ice hits

4/11/2007 2:11:58 AM

i would definitely not go so far as to say that

not at all

4/11/2007 2:27:47 AM

i like hockey too, but the nhl can't buy airtime or fan interest.

or maybe you meant the nhl was a complete piece of shit then too


[Edited on April 11, 2007 at 2:30 AM. Reason : jk, it was awesome back then]

that doesn't mean hockey is shit

that's the way hockey has always been

it's not as big as basketball or football or baseball, probably never will be

and as for fan interest, i mean you're either a fan or you aren't. i hate soccer, i will never watch soccer. if i was only one of 2 people on earth and i was the only one not watching soccer, then you wouldn't say that soccer is bad at attracting fans. you'd say "well you can't please everyone"

For jdennis, the long version of Cloutier/Salo:



Goddamn Salo was a moron.

4/11/2007 2:34:59 AM

well, the nhl has mysteriously lost fan interest. i'm not sure how you're trying to spin it, but it's reality.

doesn't even matter, the bees are leaving faster than nhl fans, we only have a few years left anyway.

4/11/2007 2:36:36 AM

lol

4/12/2007 4:26:41 PM

What other sport can you can beat the shit outta someone and only have to sit in a box for 5 minutes?

Hockey is the greatest sport ever. Too bad the majority of Americans don't agree

You know, we weren't very good when Cloutier was in goal, but god bless him for that.
