not to be cocky but i dont think the leafs losing to the pens should be considered a choke. some definite talent on that team, and they always play the pens extremely hard, but they should not be expected to win that series.

i still have reservations about fleury come the weather getting warm, but right now, he is phenomenal. granted we have done this dance before. we shall see. i would still like an insurance policy to be brought in. im a big fleury fan because i like him as a person so much, but if he pulls it again this year he has to go

When you think about hartnell. The guy is brutal. He's being left in the dust by the younger guys in this team in points despite all the top PP time he's garnered. He does not bring anything to the table when he's not scoring.


He's been brutal for awhile now. I don't know hep he's still on the top PP

If we lost in game 6 in OT to Patrick Kane shooting from the exact same position I might kill myself.

honestly, i started coming in here more just because its generally more active. and as far as the pens stuff goes, i really really try to never lead in with it unless it is unprompted.

that was such a crappy way to lose the cup. dont get me wrong. chicago has been by far the most dominant team recently, and they deserve both of their cups and then some. but both of their clinching games, and more specifically the clinching goals, have left me feeling disappointed as an objective hockey fan

I thought my dream SCF was Flyers Chicago. My team and my childhood team. But what it did was make it impossible for me to root for Chicago as long as Patrick Kane still breathes.

Ive said it before and ill say it again if we were going to lose to chicago, who were the better team, I would prefer it was off a sick unstoppable snipe from Patty Kane instead of a goal like that. At least let it be a cool goal. It was just such a let down to loose like that.

Also Imagine if Patrick Sharp scored it. Flyerdom would go crazy.

Yeah, Wire and Sopranos are 1A and 1B for me, too.

Boardwalk, Mad Men and Deadwood aren't far behind.

Game of Thrones is good... but not a fan of the way they've adapted some of the story lines and characters. The first season was pretty incredible, though.

Homeland... I never understood what the hype was about. It's like a premium cable version of NCIS... no nuance at all.

- Tomahawk


Walking Dead is pretty amazing. Deadwood was awesome.. way too short.

Growing up in a mobbed up family, I never had any interest at all in Sopranos. Rome was pretty good too, although I can do with less sex and more substance of the story line.

Former Flyers pick Colin Suellentrop has now become the all time leader in games played in the Oshawa Generals history.

282 games and counting.

Be nice if we can get tomorrow's game off them, too -- anybody have any feel if Emery's getting the nod?
