The "State of Hockey" my ass

I just discovered the Blues/Wild game will not be on TV up here. They are as bad as the (so-called) “Hockey Town” douchebags in Detroit.

Skating Russian bears...Entertainment or DECEPTIVE PLOT?

That article said that this wasnt the first time it happened…it also said that they dress them up sometimes in pads/ hockey gear….

ARE THE RUSSIANS TRYING TO MAKE A SQUAD OF BEAR ENFORCERS FOR THE 2014 OLYMPICS?

Maybe thats why the NHL doesn’t want to send NHLers over there….GENETICALLY ALTERED BEARS bred and trained to play hockey and be enforcers.

Sorry Backes/CAM/DJ King/ EVEN CHARA or CHUCK NORRIS/JACK BAUER…no way you could beat this deceptive plot to destroy international hockey.

Another point….is it not quite the coincidence that this article was posted on the game time links on the same day as the ESPN article on the KHL? I think NOT! They are in tandem working on destroying the NHL and International hockey as we know it!

I guess everyone's missing the game tonight.

I have a HS Football assignment tonight. Gots to get paid somehow, people.

One day, David Backes and Albert Pujols will combine forces to become the most awesome piece of violent force known to man.

Sounds thrilling.

I’ll be here tonight watching… I needed a break from life. I gotta stop looking to hockey teams to pep stuff up, though. Thrashers last night made me want to scream (at the goalie, as everyone probably knows). I’m really really hoping for a win here tonight from the Blues.

Please?
