Friday links: Preparing for the battle of two teams Cupless since 1967

The Toronto Maple Leafs last won the Stanley Cup in the spring of 1967. That fall, the Blues joined the NHL. Neither team has won the Cup since then. Neither team is very good this season. It's a wonder why Leafs fans and Blues fans get along so well — although I will always think Nick Kypreos is a piece of shit.

I spent 20 minutes trying to find an embedable version of the uncensored version of this video, but no luck. So enjoy Natalie Portman rapping. Thanks, RFJCC for passing this along.

Hey, that's James Laurinaitis' dad...
Apparently, young Mr. Laurinaitis was a decent hockey player as well…

Conundrum— Blues or Olympics.

I read somehwere that these opening ceremonies wont be....
As memorable as the ones in Beijing…..
REALLY???!! …
No shit sherlock….The only Opening Ceremonies in a Winter Olympics that I remember are the ones from 2002 and that was for 2 reasons….
1. The mood after 9/11
2. The 1980 Mens Ice Hockey team lighting the Torch…..
Other than that I dont remember a Ceremony from a Winter Olympics at all….
I still maintain Vladimir Konstantinov got what he deserved...If you can't handle that then kiss my ass......

Plus there’s no way a bunch of Canadians put on such a self-aggrandizing spectacle as those Chinese did.
Killer_Carlson and Steckel Me Elmo are like brothers to me. And when I say brothers I don't mean like actual brothers. I mean it like how black people use it, which is more meaningful, I think.

Glad to find out I am not the ONLY person in St. Louis who thinks Nick Kypreos is a piece of shit for running Grant Fuhr and taking him out of that game…
Funny how great minds think alike, eh Joe?
And are able to remember things like that…
aka billy pilgrim, time and space traveller
Far from it.
If Kypreos doesn’t belly-flop on Fuhr, the Blues aren’t stuck with Jon Casey in the second round against the Wings… and that series probably doesn’t go seven games… or into the second overtime… GGAHHHH!!! DIE KYPREOS DIE YOU FUCKING MISERABLE TURDBURGLAR!!!
Fuck Nik Kypreos
fuck fuck fuck nik kypreos
fuck fuck fuck nik kypreos
fuck fuck fuck nik kypreos
yeah fuck em!!!
Ladies Ladies Ladies Jay and Silent Bob are in the hizzouse!!!!

He did have his career ended by a punch to the face. So take solace in that.

Check out Pension Plan Puppets. They do the whole blogging thing right.
It’s Toronto… they do everything right when it comes to hockey, except winning Cups.
Also, notice how they main guys profile pics are Calvin and Hobbes. That makes them awesome. Also, Brad and Sean, you guys should do that. I suggest Batman and Robin.
Nah…

yeah, I was about to say, I think most logical hockey fans can agree, Kypreos is a flaming turd…
...Being surrounded by Sens and Habs fans makes me lose faith in humanity...
We were raising funds to hit him with a beer while he was on TV at the draft.

plastic cups have little viability as projectiles
they didnt have bottles, it was in montreal you know, probably worried their fans would make the bottles into molotov cocktails and throw them at cop cars
