    ???? they've been attacking and controlling the puck all game. the flames have had a few good pushes but they havent lasted long. hawks should be up like 5-1 right now I'm talking since about 7 minutes left in the game, we take the puck in their zone, and dump it into our zone whenever challenged. I'm just saying I'm used to the Hawks in these situations pushing hard for the third goal to put the game out of reach. they only did that for like 3 minutes, and that was when calgary was pushing hard Exactly, it happened and I wasn't used to seeing it. It was much longer than 3 minutes though. Since your challenging all my posts (and that's fine), to respond to your other comment, I kinda missed most of the first 2 periods, but I was aware they were dominiating the play. It wasn't pretty, it was a game we grinded out, despite not converting on a lot of our chances. Our game winning goal was a deflection off a skate...it was one of those kind of games.

    SWEET. Hawks win. Feels like it's been awhile since we scored an empty netter, but I might be missing one recently. I love whenever we score an empty netter Foley always says "Hawks win" even when theres like a minute left ha. Not the prettiest of wins, but it's a good road win over a playoff bound team.

    Now we're just holding the puck and attacking. I'm not used to seeing the Hawks not attacking until the end.

    Huh? What history do the Knicks have on a handful of other NBA teams? A .498 winning percentage Tied with the Hawks for 5th for most playoff appearances 10th in Division championships with 8. 2 NBA titles, less than the Pistons, Warriors, 76ers, Bulls, Spurs, Celtics, and Lakers Yeah but John Starks dunked over Jordan once.

    The Flames have been dominating play ever since the Hawks go ahead goal.

    Kiprosoff is on tonight

    He's given us "hints", but I don't think they mean he's definitely going to New York. He just wants people to keep talking about him and he enjoys throwing hints out there because of that. I've seen him say things that were pro-returning to Cleveland as well, though not as much as the pro-New York statements.

    I'm a bulls fans and by no means is our team dominant but the regular season is pretty boring for me too. The only thing to be decided is whether well have a 0.7% chance of John Wall or get swept in Round 1 (unless we draw you guys and Garnett is out again)

    Blah, with the Hawks lost yesterday and the Sharks blowout win, the Hawks drop to #2 in the Western Conference, falling 2 points behind SJ with the same number of games played. BTW, the Sharks are on fire I guess. Won their last 2 games by a combined score of 14-2 (9-1 and 5-1)

    Man the Bulls are completely unwatchable on the road.

    There was no way Michigan was going to win @ Wisconsin, but it's maddening to see them lose a close game seeing as every loss makes it less and less likely Michigan can make a miraculous run to the tourney.

    The only chance the Cubs had to sign Sheets was probably to guarantee him 2 years at a reasonable amount before he threw for people. Now that he threw somewhat well from the sounds of things, his market has blossomed it seems. It would have been a huge gamble to guarantee him 2 years, but that was probably the only chance.

    He really is hard to kill off. He is the minor league version of Chad Fox. What year did he start to dominate Spring Training and win a place in the hearts of this board? It was either 04 or 05. Feels like such a long time ago.

    Improving since...November? Trust me we should all be scared anytime JH is said to be negotiating with a MR. I am willing to bet the deal isn't any less than 2 years $6 million in both years and amount.
  16. UMFan83
    Can't win them all. The Hawks alternate between looking like the greatest team ever and then playing decently but with mistakes. I think even the best teams do that..it's a long season. I still think we'll go 5-3 on the trip.

    Huet is so bad. I saw that wrap around coming from a mile away. I was shocked when Huet was still at the right side of the goal after the puck went in. Really bad goal allowed for Huet. Does he even see the puck out there?
  18. UMFan83
    Part of me is just remembering that Huet is a really streaky goalie. That and the D has looked rather shakey lately

    Hawks are just bored and thus increasing the level of diffculty by spotting them a couple goals. No worries.
  20. UMFan83
    I had one good year (I think 2007) and several bad ones. Sign me up.

    Good call. I paid a crapload to go to the NFC Championship game in 06 (sorry) and I'll never regret being there while my team clinches a SB berth. Of course your experience may be different than mine if the result is different than mine. Assuming the Saints win, you will have an absolute blast.

    Can you guys stop talking about this? Blah

    Come on...did the Blue Jackets make the Stanley Cup Finals for 2 years in a row with similar teams. Provided the rest of the crew comes back and the injuries are minimal the rest of the year they are a lock to make the playoffs. In fact, they are only 5 points out of the 4 seed in the conference. I hate defending the Wings, but you guys make it seem like they suck.

    Detroit is still short 5 regulars(all of whom are better then Burish) and played very evenly. Not sure I would be too cocky yet. you should just let us be as cocky as we want so if we do falter embarrassingly you can read back on these comments and enjoy a hearty laugh. Detroit is not a team I want to face I'm the first round. I honestly think they are just about as good as us when healthy plus they play a similar style as us and generally have a ton more experience than us. However health may be an issue for the Wings all year so well see.

    Great work Tim. I was a little skeptical about 312sports upon launch but I find myself increasingly going over there to read the page. Keep it up.
