Radulov is the next Hudler. It will take time for him to adjust back to the NHL after an extended stay in the KHL.

? Having an opinion is now considered as going over the line around here? You made a joke, then I made the same joke. Penguins are good and now they're adding the best player in the world. What's there to "chill" about?

No, you calling him a red neck is why he's telling you to chill.

With all due respect...after reading your posts here and in the Canucks blog....you are being a bit of a richard.

He, however, wasn't being a red neck.

Sorry, my bad. It sounded like you were slightly upset by my post. If not then no biggie! Didn't think it was over the line, just read funny. Of course it is hard to show sarcasm in writing..lol.

I do agree with your assessment for the most part. I do think Rads will make a huge difference once he gets his feet under him. Also it is a no brainer that Sid will make a huge difference, after all he is the best player in the game. The only issue could be his health. I am not a Sid fan, but it would suck to lose a player of his caliber for any more time.

I said "Preds, no. Pens, yes." That makes me a d!ck?
And how am I being one in the Nucks thread?

Ummmm, no and that clearly wasn't what we were talking about.

Go through this blog and the Canucks one and read your posts...then come back here and say "I was not wording my posts like a richard" with a straight face.

Dude, it's not like you're out of control...just saying you word some of your posts like a bit of a richard...you don't need to prove yourself to me.

"Preds, no. Pens, yes." Was the first thing I said here. I got called a d!ck for it. I then explained the difference between the two teams and was subsequently told to "chill, relax, breathe, exhale." I seriously would like to know how that is being a d!ck.
The Nucks thread is a convo on a couple guys saying Luongo is sleeping around. I asked where/when that was reported. That's being a d!ck too? I need some specific examples here. I'm posting my opinion on hockey matters, I don't want to get banned for it so please help me!

Sorry, thought you were gonna ban me for something I was saying.

Naw, not at all....was literally just saying "dude, you're coming across as a bit of an ass" but maybe it was just how I was reading it.

Far as I'm concerned...you're not destroying the thread, not going on a name calling tear, not trolling...it's all good.

I didn't get much sleep last night. Maybe I'm a bit grumpy today.
Some guys have been saying there's been lots of bans the last few weeks so I got worried. I guess I just need a nap.

A non-issue. It was an accident, not an assault. This has been discussed ad nauseum.
- Predaceous

Im sorry, but that was no accident...

I must be missing something or thinking of someone else, but wasn't Radulov the same guy that played in Nashville, did absolutely nothing special, and then got pissy and went back to Russia? Am I thinking of the same guy? If so, what is all the hype about?

As for Sid...as long as he plays smart, plays hard, and doesn't force the coaching staff to shake up the Kunitz-Malkin-Neal line, I think the Pens have a real good shot at going far in the playoffs. A better shot if Letang comes back and doesn't go down again. He's simply irreplaceable on the blue line.

Ek, I have a few ideas for some future troll blogs:

Stamkos or Gretzky: Who would you take?

2011-2012 Philadelphia Flyers: Most underrated team in history?

Calling my shot: Hall Gill wins Conn Smythe

Let me know if you need more

Haha, naps are always good.

Yeah I've been getting PM's from guys who have been banned for what they felt were not valid reasons...problem is that when a Ref selects a post to ban you, you see the message "you have been banned for the below post......." and the users gets mad because that one individual post might not have been that bad, but in reality it's a whack of posts that collectively made the ref ban you and they just chose one of the many posts to make the ban official.

I'll just delete the posts lonnnnnnnng before I ban a guy...unless it's obvious he's just trying to be an idiot and ruin the board.

Please go to Cloutiers... theres enough there to keep you deleting for a month...

bitter much...

nah

Yes and Yes

Fleury has a lot of big game experience for being just 27. Lots of playoff games, more than any starter other than Brodeur, plus several games on the world stage
- HAHALupul

That would be WRONG.

Nabokov has more playoff games then Fleury does.

Can't be as worst then getting Gaustad for a first rounder.
- Alexzanki

You only wish your team could make a trade at the deadline that didn't involve them losing talent...

- simethos

Is it really that hard to look up a dude's stats? He scored 26 Goals and had 32 assists in his 2nd year of the NHL as a 22 year-old. No...he isn't going to be Malkin or Stamkos, but he can obviously be a force.
