Love this comment in the article about the ref
“Your move, Mike Danton. "

That wreck of Carl Edward’s was awesome. He was also classy enough to admit he did it to himself.

The Ricky Bobby run for the checkered . . .

was pretty damned funny too.

The former Flyers prospect faces up to 20 years in prison if convicted and would be released when he turns 43 at the latest, or when Chris Chelios finally retires from the NHL.

I lol’d…that’s messed up, though.

And that Ducks clip needs more Paul Kariya cameo.

point out things that are wrong with this video.

hmmmm
a) not sure switching goalies DURING the shootout is legal. before it starts is fine.
b) the puck needs to keep moving forward. not sure one is allowed to stop and blast it.
c) both goalies are stupid for falling flat on their faces like they got tripped way before the shooter is ready.
d) some of the shooters are retarded for shooting right at the goalie’s glove. you just wasted your shot.
e) a plane doesn’t transform into a flock of birds, I don’t care what dimension you’re in.
f) they’re never that many shootout goals in one game. those goalies suck.

did I get ’em all?

I almost added “Icelandish mid-teenagers know english? wtf?” to my list, but I checked wikipedia beforehand to make sure, and it says that english is widely spoken as a second language.

g) on the first Duck shooter, the Iceland goalie comes out to cut off the angle. the next shot, he’s back parked in the crease like he never even moved.

b) the puck needs to keep moving forward. not sure one is allowed to stop and blast it.

I saw a shootout last year maybe where the shooter stopped and blasted it by the goalie from about 15 feet out. I was laughing my azz off and the goalie was pizzed. Shooter was a big D man, Souray or Chara is who I think it was. Can’t remember the goalie. I didn’t think it was legal either but they allowed it if my memory is correct.

Teemu had a shootout goal this year too that he stopped on

Teemu screamed in real fast straight at the goalie and then hit the brakes. As the goalie fell over helplessly Teemu buried it from a standstill. I thought Teemu was going to crash the net and so did the goalie, he flinched real bad.

1) Goldberg shouldnt be able to move like that
2) The triple deke is worse than jay mckees durability
3) At one point they stuck charlie sheen in for emilio estaves(sp?)
4) Gordon Bombay chose the frumpy house-wife over the blonde foreign hottie, who the fuck does that in real life?

Wow

on the auctions.

It’s taking every single bit of willpower I possess NOT to put a bid in on Cammer’s jersey.

I have to keep telling myself that it’ll take money away from my “visiting the States” fund.

That first shooter

must be ambidextrous, because he circles the puck lefthanded, starts out righthanded, then shoots lefthanded. either the editor is dumb enough to be a redwings fan, or the director is not smart enough to have the same character be played by the same person.
