I'm fully expecting Lecavalier to be the player he was when he won the Rocket Richard award!

Well, if you looked at the advanced stats, you'd know that he's not playing well. Sure, it looks like it by watching him and his regular stats are better than most players in the league, but his CORSI rating proves without a doubt that he's been pretty terrible, much to the contrary of every other measuring which all point to him playing well.

Liam Neeson isn't even cool in Star Wars. He's a throwaway character who just dithers around ripping off aliens in racing bets. The only reason anybody cares about him is because of the actor.
- BulliesPhan87


Liam Neeson's role is the single best thing about that movie.

Samuel L. Jackson was tragically underused.

The fact is, those prequel movies were meant for kids my sons age (7 YO) so they bug their parents to buy Star Wars toys. I doubt Lucas wrote those prequels to appeal to anyone over the age of 13.

Burn Notice fan I guess? Did you enjoy Rob Roy?
- MJL


Didn't see Rob Roy. Loved Burn Notice, but didn't watch the final season (same old story episode after episode). I probably should have. But he is the best part of Spider Man II and III.

After 19 days to heal, Lecavalier and Downie will be new players tonight.

scoring goals has little meaning or importance to hockey... not with those wowy numbers available

Correction: Neeson's role should have been the best part. Instead, he was a boring grandpa hippy.

I loved Burn Notice also. But to be honest, the final season and especially how it ended was extremely disapointing and poorly written in my opinion.
The show I'm really into now is the Blacklist. James Spader is fantastic in it.

I'm expecting a slow start from the Flyers and fall behind 2-0 after the first. But they come back and win 3-2

We need to bring back Knuble.

Edit: Everone else in that is in slow motion except for him.

I think almost 3 weeks off is going to be huge for both of them. I think we will be better than they have been coming out of this break. Flyers need them to be.

If he could just geth is CorsiRel from 48.6% to 52.2%, I think that would do wonders for the Flyers and their chances on winning the Cup.

So to recap, Couture and fruitbat score to give the Sharks the most dangerous lead in hockey, before the comeback kids thing goes down again. Also, PAIN.

I'm excited.

I'm a fan of Spader when I've seen him (The Office, Boston Legal) but I don't make it a point to watch him.

To be fair the original Star Wars was meant for kids too.
