I've seen her twice. Never met her.

The best thing about not knowing anyone on these boards in RL is every female poster looks like Scarlet Johansson and every male poster looks like Tom Petty, making me the stud of the board....

3 things I'd like to see in tonights game:

1. Couturier strips Malkin of the puck in the neutral zone, goes in 2 on 1 and blows a shot by Fleury

2. Kimmo Timonen scores a pp goal

3. Pierre McGuire gets a puck in the mouth right in the middle of him babbling about how amazing Crosby is!

Go Flyers!!

If Luke Schenn's trade value is that low right now, then there is no reason to trade him. He played great last season, and is struggling under Cheif's skating system, but you cant give away the guy you traded JVR for, for peanuts because he is struggling now...

However, if he is part of a package and your getting value, then by all means... get Yakupov.

Yakupov doesn't thrill me. Seriously when has a team won a Cup with somebody like a Yakupov on it.

Its just a bias thing.
- youarewrong


The bias on here is absurd. I try to accepy it, but it infuriates me. Providing a source for a rumor, while not being allowed to link other sites is almost impossible.

Its a political party thing to me.

I was madly in love with her until I learned of her outspoken politcal stuff.

Oh, no. There are people on this thread that will swear he's ready to turn this whole thing around.
- mayorofangrytown

He is struggling badly at the moment, but I don't know that I am ready to give him up as a bust.

I guess I have lowered my expectations of what he could be, when and if he ever realizes his potential.

At this point the trade looks to be better for Toronto.

I am also surprised at how his game has regressed from last year.

Like most things in hockey I don't see these things in such absolutes as many make out here. "Top pair guy" vs "total bust". It doesn't fit this situation, the truth is somewhere in between.

Shush, anybody who thinks Luke Schenn can play better is obviously an idiot, and he's obviously a bust and also an idiot. Idiot.

Absolutely a potential first pairing defensive defenseman. Without question.
- PLindbergh31


That's what he was last season. I see no reason he can't get back to that level of play.

A lot of people wrote Steve Mason off as a bust back in March.

My 3.

1. Couturier throws a flying Elbow on Neal a la Macho Man, even though Neal is on my Fantasy team and he just came off the IR.

2. Berube comes at Bylsma like Lavi did, only Berube makes it to the Penguins bench and toss each player out of his way like the Hulk (Marvel not WWF) until he reaches him cowering behind Crosby.

3. Pierre is talking about how great Crosby is and Crosby skates buy and farts and Crosby fans it a Pierre who immediately becomes toung-tied.

maybe it is the nature of these internet fora, to be so polarizing to the extremes all the time

No, they just watched him play that role successfully earlier this year.

Penguins did it with Jagr. Devils almost did it with Kovalchuk, Gretzky wasnt the best defensive player....Did Bure win the cup?

Well obviously playing like a first pairing defenseman would be playing better than he is now. But you tell me.
