Are the members of the Competition Committee REALLY this freaking insane? 4-on-4 in the 2nd (and subsequent) playoff OTs? Please God No.

The thrill of playoff OT is unmatched in sport. Period. If this clown Mike Brophy doesn't like it, he can go watch basketball. Give me a freaking break.

Anyone know how to start a "Save OT" campaign to let the Competition Committee know that fans believe in OT?

Just read this on Puck Daddy.

I don’t know Mike Brophy and will not pretend to . . . but I can already tell that Mike Brophy is a cackling assweasel douchebag.

You've GOT to be friggin' kidding me...

Mike Brophy is — or was, I thought — a widely-respected hockey journalist.

He’s been drinking the Bettman Kool-Aid, apparently.

JGB has it right, and has hit on the slogan. Plain and simple. “No gimmicks in the playoffs!”

Who the hell decides who is on the Competition Committee, and what their agenda is, anyway?

Absolutely NO!

OT hockey is one of the best things about the playoffs. 4-on-4 would cheapen it and take away from the excitement. JGB is right, NO GIMMICKS IN THE PLAYOFFS!

Why would you NOT want sudden death overtime in the playoffs?

I enjoyed watching the Ducks/Wings game primarily BECAUSE of that. Just let the damn game be played. Why can’t the league just do that?

Reporter: There`s a "stamp out the Beatles movement" underway in Detroit. What are you going to do about it?

Paul McCartney: We`re going to start a campaign to stamp out Detroit.

Here’s your answer…
