  1. Let's put things in perspective; this isn't the end of the season, nor of O'Byrne's career (barring some massive drop in confidence). But, to be quite honest, this game was lost as a direct result of his poor mistake. And it wasn't just a mistake, it was something that no player in the NHL should ever commit. Is it excusable? No. Is it forgivable? Yeah, but the fact that we lost sure stings a lot more. This reeks of the Patrick Stefan fiasco, and I don't have to tell you what happened to his career; let's hope for better from the kid.
  2. Put in O'Byrne, he's got the soft hands tonight to go with his soft brain!
  3. The part that makes me the most angry is that he's a Victoria boy. The only one in the NHL as far as I know. Way to make us proud!
  4. O'Byrne will never score a bigger goal in his life. To be fair, he probably won't score another goal again.
  5. After clubbing in downtown Toronto, though? I can get around during the day, it's the night life I'm talking about.
  6. Thanks, Zowpeb. That's a pretty good list, and I hope to do most of those in my 4 months in Ontario. The problem for me is that I won't have a vehicle, and I won't really know anyone in town, so clubbing for me is out of the picture right there (not that I'm much of a clubber anyways, but you're damn sure that at least once in my 4 months I'm taking a wad of cash and showing you boys how it's done on the west coast ) I think my roommate is getting tickets to a BoSox game, and I'd like to try and get tickets to a Bills game in Buffalo. If I'm lucky (or feel like spending enough money) I'll try and get Leafs-Habs tickets, too. All in all, I'm pretty excited to go. It's my first real opportunity to get out of BC and work in my chosen career path, albeit for only four months. At least it's during hockey season, although I wouldn't mind my lakefront property I have rented in the summer
  7. I plan on making trips everywhere. It's my first time in the big O, and I'm there for four months with nothing to do in my free time but play video games and hit the gym, and I get tired of those very quickly
  8. I'll make sure I give her a dirty look. Seeing as I don't know who she is, I'll just give ever woman there a dirty look. Some might say it was my normal look!
  9. Yeah, I'm actually going there to work for GM funny enough. And I've got a cheap rental with two other UVic engineers right on Lake Ontario, couldn't believe how cheap it was. I'm not leaving, I'm just on a long vacation...for work
  10. Your favourite non-existant forum troll is coming to visit! I'll be in Oshawa from the start of September all the way until Christmas for a engineering gig, and it's a strange new land with nobody I know. So, if you're in the area, want to get together to boo the leafs at a pub, or have spare tickets to a Leafs-Habs game, let me know!
  11. TSN has it official, 3 years @ $1.5 Million a season
  12. I've seen little girls that telegraphed their backhands less than that. Good effort, but he's known for going high backhand now.
  13. The only bad part about Kostopoulos scoring is that I have to stop each time to remember how to spell his name. It really messes me up! That line has been all they need to be and then some. Plus, I just love being able to say "KOSTOPOULESTED" along with "KOVALEVELED"
  14. 64. I'll consider it the calm before the storm.
  15. There's no roster limit in the playoffs and the Hamilton Bulldogs are out of the playoff. He can either send all the Bulldogs home early, or have them practice with the team and gain some experience. They probably won't play, but if they're needed, then they've already been practicing with the team and are ready to go.
  16. Man, Habs fever has even reached BC. I'm usually rocking out in either my Habs hat or jersey, and I get honked at and stopped in the street all the time with people yelling "NICE HAT!" or "GO HABS!" It's a far cry from last year's "TAKE THAT OFF, DIPSHIT!" I'm giddy like a schoolgirl over this game. I'm guessing the replacement word for Chara will be Yao?
  17. That was a two minute penalty in the worst-case. Brutal call.
  18. If it was any other team in the league right now (except maybe NJ or Pitts) I would've said that I'd rather the Habs lose this game and give up a 6 goal lead. Then they might learn...
  19. Haha, nah. People in the first row behind the Sens bench. Couldn't tell if it was a guy and a girl making out, or two guys. But the camera was zoomed in on the bench and you could blatantly see it in the background. They looked like they had no idea how to do it, either.
  20. Were there two guys making out behind Bryan Murray during the timeout?
  21. Is there anyone Sergei Kostitsyn can't hit with a perfect pass?
  22. Wow. That could not have been a more perfect play. Hard, low shot by Streit and a tip into the upper corner by Koivu.
  23. ...that pass broke his stick on the redirect
