Sunday Links: Today's nightmare fuel brought to you by Rowan Atkinson edition

by Poor College Student on Apr 18, 2010 6:00 AM CDT

Just as the journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step, the journey of a dozen or so links start with a single click.

Blues News:

You guys knew SLGT has a Facebook fan page, right? If not, Game Time has a fan page.
Late last night, David Backes helped save several orphans from a burning building downtown by borrowing Paul Kariya's smug sense of self-satisfaction and using it as a barrier between him and the flames. OK, I made that up.

NHL News:

Even with their President's Trophy, the Caps look vulnerable. Last night's 6 to 5 OT victory seemed like the Caps have to play video game hockey to be worth a damn in the playoffs. Long live goaltending and solid positional defensive play! Oh, and questionable officiating, too.
More chances for Photoshop artwork, compliments of Shane Doan.
Another day, another call for a suspension. This one's involving a Rob Blake asplosion of TJ Gallardi.
Boston tops the Sabres. Die By The Blade and Stanley Cup of Chowder recap it. I guess that fan boycott thing worked out.
Canucks and Kings went to OT with the Kings taking the taco.
Plenty of playoff hockey today, starting at 3PM and lasting throughout the evening.
Sabres fans get to watch the game outside. As bitter as I am, anything that sticks it to Pens fans is fine by me.

Other Stuff:

As promised, your nightmare fuel for the day: Many examples of "If Mr Bean was..."
Hey, Officer Duke, you know any of these folks?
Oddball wedded women
25 of the World's Worst in several categories. 25 categories, in fact.

Did I ever tell you about the time Brasky was in a production of The King and I? Well anyway, before the show, Brasky chloroforms the entire cast, and slowly eats them in front of the audience for two hours. The production got pretty good reviews.

Andrew Alberts

How is he still in this series after that boarding major in game 1? That was a 5-10 game suspension in the making.

I’m not sure if they can be merged or started which…..It’s very confusing

They Capitals played like shit for half the game, then with about 25 minutes left, decided “Hey, maybe we actually want to win this game”, and scored five goals. They seem to be able to score at will when they’re actually trying, but didn’t have effort before. Most bipolar team in the league that way, second only to the Blues (home vs away anyone?)

And the Canadians bitching about reffing? Read it and laugh. Really, they’re bitching about a goal that counted in their favor.

As sixsevenfiftysix said in that thread

So you’re upset because the NHL, as mandated by the NHL rules, conducted a replay review that met the specifications of the NHL rules, and drew the correct conclusion from that review?

Then they decide to bitch because their player, Hal Gill, pushes Knuble into their goalie.

Yea, there was so bad reffing on both sides, but the Canadians got a lot of calls in their favor, not even close to being rigged. There are more tin hats over there in Montreal than in all of Detroit. Fuck Detroit, and Fuck Montreal too.
