  1. I didn't see it yet, but I'm fine with booing him. He's worthless and his contract (though admittedly not his fault) may hamstring the team for the next few years. c'mon. why boo him for accepting a contract? what was he supposed to do? turn it down because he didn't think he deserved it? and either way, booing ANY player at a championship parade is just really really weak. "eff you huet, if you didn't suck so bad, maybe we finish with 117 points instead of 112! thanks a lot, you bum"
  2. "umm, i really think the key to the playoffs for the hawks was buhhfooglienn. i cant wait until next season to see what kind of numbers this guy can put up now that he's developed into an elite player."
  3. Cam Barker's planning his day with the Cup. Didn't he play enough games this year? Havlat is wondering why he sucked so much this year. He played enough games, but you have to finish with the team too, I think. I'll check. The Hawks might give him a ring, though. all you have to do is play 41 games in the regular season or 1 game in the finals.
  4. Cam Barker's planning his day with the Cup. Didn't he play enough games this year? yeah, i guess you're right. he played 51. for some reason i thought it was way lower than that. so is he really going to get a day with the cup? that's pretty funny if it actually goes down like that.
  5. i wonder what guys like martin havlat and cam barker are feeling
  6. yeah, i'd expect him to be around average next season.
  7. I don't understand this thought process. The idea that you've "earned" it more because you've watched more. I'm a huge Chicago sports fan, but for (I think) pretty reasonable reasons, I haven't had a lot of Blackhawks interest previously. I've had a casual passing interest...enough to care whether they won or lost, but not enough to watch the games on a regular basis. But (like many in town I suspect, based on TV ratings for Chicago), I followed the playoffs religiously. Why would you begrudge those people? it's fine that they exist, i just don't want to be around them.
  8. yeah. i'm obviously fine with going into next season with him as our goalie, but i still don't know what to make out of that guy. even when he's going good, he seems to be flopping around... yet it seems to work a lot.you'd think winning a stanley cup would tell you what kind of goalie you have, but i still don't know. no matter what happens though, i'll always love him.
  9. thats why im getting a bolland or seabrook jersey I'm getting really crabby about this. This city's sports fans weren't just disinterested, they were openly hostile to hockey for years. They should get off my lawn! and they'll be the first fans to boo antti niemi the first time he has a bad game next season. or wonder why toews isn't scoring 120 points. or why byfluglien isn't on a 40 goal pace. Cubs fans jump on new players when they don't immediately perform. Hell, everybody was bailing on the Cutler bandwagon after the first game last year. It's about a large, passionate sports market. Not bandwagoning. i hate all those people too. the same people who will probably start booing castro soon.
  10. i remember being outside of the st pete times forum after the lightning won the cup in game 7 and seeing a group of about 6 or 7 teenage girls walk by..... every single one of them wearing a brand new brad richards jersey. one of them also was holding a fake stanley cup she made out of aluminum foil. die hard fans for sure.

  12. right now i'm actually glad i don't live near chicago. bandwagon fans piss me off like you wouldn't believe. i live near tampa, so i saw it with the lightning in 04, and the rays a couple years ago. just disgusting.
  13. thats why im getting a bolland or seabrook jersey
  14. Ozney, Oney, and Ozzie Jr. i didn't believe you until i looked it up. jesus
  15. finally finished watching the replay of the game. i didn't notice when i watched it live, but holy [expletive] is scott hartnell the biggest diver ever. dives on seabrook's "elbow", dives on keith's "slash". dude was flopping all over the place. just wanted to point that out, since i knew there was a reason i hated that guy. plus he has a perm.
  16. definitely burish but it would be funny if it was niemi or somebody like that who did it Well and there were tons of people in that locker room that normally wouldn't be...family members and such. but it's much funnier if you imagine it was a player
  17. definitely burish but it would be funny if it was niemi or somebody like that who did it
  18. let them be bitter. i love it. and yeah, losing versteeg, ladd, and sopel is going to make us terrrribbbllleee
  19. There aren't many Hispanic "Darrells" well he did play somebody named doogie
  20. wtf even happened to johnsson? i knew he was hurt, but never knew what happened and was too lazy to ever look it up despite him being gone for months
  21. apprently that dude has played characters named tuco, paco (twice), rico, and balco.
  22. that's why i assumed he was just sulleying it when he flipped out after games 3 and 4
  23. dvr'd the replay of the game from 4 AM on NHLN and watching the whole thing. i'm glad edzo finally stopped biting his tongue when they called that EMBARRASSING penalty on hossa.that's the one word i kept saying when that happened live. just an embarrassing call. it was pretty disgusting how the refs clearly wanted to play a factor in the game. i don't mean in favor of philly, but just in general. the 2nd call on pronger was pathetic too. it's game 6 of the stanley cup finals. stop trying to impact the game you morons.
