  1. I learned years ago that, if you're gonna shill out the sizeable funds for a jersey, you want a name that isn't contemporary. No matter how great a player seems NOW, any number of things can go wrong and make his jersey seem silly, regrettable or lame with the passage of time. I live in Vancouver and still have to look at all these Canuckleheads walking around with 'BERTUZZI' jerseys. In our case, names like 'HIGGINS' and 'KOMISAREK' probably seemed like great choices three years ago. Now? Not so much. (Even KOIVU, while understandable, looks slightly painful now - terrific, heroic player, but sadly attached to an era of total team failure).

    So the only answer is to go with legends. I myself am the proud owner of a jersey that really separates the men from the boys among Habs fans: #7, MORENZ. Never once regretted that one. ^_^ If that seems a bit too hard-core, there's plenty of others. #4 BELIVEAU is the fashionable choice these days because he's the elder statesman now, and that will always be a good choice. #9 RICHARD is of course impeccable if slightly obvious. #10 LAFLEUR will immediately instil suffering in any Bruins fan you chance to meet. But all things considered, you might do best to bridge the past with the present by choosing #23 GAINEY. :hockey:

    Gainey would be the perfect choice, looking at how far the Habs have made it this season.

  2. Perfect 4-0-0 sim for Florida!

    6-5 OT Win against CAR --> Brendl with the hat-trick plus the OT winner!

    4-2 Win against ATL --> Brendl with a goal and assist.

    5-2 Win against NYI --> Horton and Jokinen shine in this one.

    6-3 Win against PHI --> Brendl with another hat-trick!!

    It's really great to see the Panthers go from dead last to 3rd in the East and 1st in the mighty SE in a couple of sims. Is it just me or can i finally boast? :lol:

  3. Or, just send an HQ with each line set. Have you really never done this as long as you've been in the league?

    Thanks alot bro, i appreciate the help and no i havent lol :lol: I wanted to know how cuz Horton is only suspended for one more game so yep, cant leave him scratched for this sim.

  4. I'll give you Stream's address for a first round pick?

    *wonders whats creepier?: the fact that blaze would agree to this deal in a heartbeat or that I have stream's address...*

    You having Streamer's address is wayyy creepier lol :lol:

  5. Florida confirms, with Van Ryn retiring I was initially looking to move him but with Johnson becoming available I saw this as a good opportunity to pick up his replacement and strengthen the defence since Florida has finally woken up this season. I have alot of prospects in the system so possibly missing the 1st round in this season's draft will be fine. A huge thanks to Brian for the sick negociations!

    With all that said, the real reason why I accept this deal is because Brian is way too sexy and I love him alot :lol:
