  1. People won't stop watching in Canada. They never have watched in the US. In the US the sport is a niche sport. And why in the life of me does Bettman not see this. He'll go oh our arenas are full. Thats because the only hockey fans you have go to the games. Nobody watches it on tv. Hockey will always be a Northeast/Canada/Northern Plains sport. I doubt people in florida care about there hockey team. There is no average fan in the NHL. Its either you're a diehard fan or don't care about the sport. Americans don't care about the sport. Its time Bettman to realize his crusade of putting hockey where it doesn't snow and doesn't belong to end and move the teams North.

    actually Tampa Bay is pretty successful down there, my grandfather lives down there, moved from NJ and alot of people moved to the tampa bay area from the northern part of the US cause of health problems, They draw alot of fans, especially now because the Bucs are playing like poop this year and they dont have a basketball team in the area. my point is some southern citys are good for it like Tampa Bay

  2. There's too many teams already. It's diluting the talent pool for the game.

    I say no more franchises and move the failing ones in the States back to Canada.

    yeah I dont understand why there are teams in Nashville, Atlanta,pheniex and all the southern states

    Im a beleiver that there shouldnt be a team south of DC. Move those teams to Canada or Portland, Maine some places like that

  3. Its even worse for college sports.

    I disagree about college sports. the only footbal teams in the Northeast are Boston College, Rutgers, Temple, UConn, Army and Navy. and the funny part is Navy is doing something remarkable, with the wars they are still able to feild a potenial Top 25 team in the Country.

    But in basketball i can see where your coming from

  4. ugh you know why I hate the MLB playoffs?

    4 words

    Joe Buck

    Tim McCarver

    OMG I'M GOING TO SCREAM!!!

    Tim McCarver and his look at the brilliance of that play on a simple ground out to second.

    Fox replaying everything 3 times!!!! Slowing the game down. Stabbing myself with a pick is more enjoyable then watching the playoffs on fox.

    I hate those guys and of course they always do Yankee games. And Joe Buck now does Giants games for the NFL, makes me wanna puke everytime i hear him

  5. Two things: Lou's screw-up cost a 1st round draft pick and kept some of his core players off the ice for all of training camp. Not a great way to start the season amd that could come back to haunt them.

    gionta martin and clemensen have been in camp for months. I think it was a thing when they had deals worked out, but just couldnt announce them cause of cap problems

  6. GARBAGE!

    If there are any NJ fans out there they should be pleased that NJ is part of the New York scene.

    :angry:

    Any team could of gotten away with it Molginly cant play again

    :king:

    Lou is the man, he always finds ways to get us out of trouble...which is a good thing cause he always gets us in trouble. but yeah this is great B)

  7. how do you figure ?

    SJ got a first round pick for two players who are not even on they're roster and are both over 27. Korolyk is playing in Russia again this season so he can't even play for NJ ... SJ got a gift for taking Malakhov's cap hit which SJ would not have used this season anyways. because malakhov retired as a devil they have to actually pay his salary

    im was talking about making trades for overpaid players and we dont need that 1st round pick, We already have a strong group plus it was a conditional 1st round pick anyway

  8. Hard to have a good release when you can barely move your arm. Atleast he played through his injury to try and help his team win, more then Hasek can say for the Sens.

    The way ranger fans were talking about him like he was god, then to have him go scoreless...well that was just special

  9. And thats why he scores and doesn't fight. How can you call him a goon anyway? It's fricking Jaromir Jagr.

    Laraque, McGratton, Oliwa, Worrell, May. Those guys are goons.

    well he sure as hell didnt score when it mattered most :lol:

  10. It was more of an elbo attack as Jagr has no intention to fight anyone as he makes too much $$$$$$

    Plus realistically Gomez does get under some teams skin and very effectively I might add.

    yeah i know but HE MISSED competlety :lool: :lool: :lool:

  11. cool so who do you think will stay and who will go because they need to get under the cap?

    The papers arouind here are saying that Brylin will go, but Im not really sure maybe madden or Rafalski which will would suck, but we'll just have to see with Lou has up his sleeve this time

    Sweet, welcome to the boards.

    I predicted Elias in top 5 scoring to my buddy and people called me crazy. What's your take on that?

    My take on that is i think he can be in the top 5. I think he might win MVP this year, I hope that Clude lets him be the capatain I really do, Last year when he was out we couldn't score at all, Then when he came back we couldn't be stopped especially at the end of the season.
