12 hour games?

I just hate that that goal was disallowed. The off side and the goal were two different events. If the lineman didn't blow it down it should be all good. If a team had taken a penalty rather than scored they wouldn't take that back. They don't add time to the clock for when the off side should have been called...

To summarize, I hate the fcking Coaches challenge.

My problem is you're like the 8th person to call him out. Hell even I said some stupid sh!t. Man up. To say that Laine is some scrub compared to Mathews is BS. I am border line. Laine is a possible 1st overall. You all can keep pretending like you never said anything of the like. I said stupid 4hit you said $tupid sh!t. To say that Laine isn't a possible #1 is ridiculous.

The #2 vs #3 is still much closer than anybody else aside from Matthews is to #1. I guess if the Oilers win the lottery they're running out of roster spots for 1st overall centres.

We are not comparing McJesus here.

True.... I don't believe I have ever commented on who is number one.... with that being said.... Matthew's is going 1ov no matter what.
Laine is a possible number 1. Yes
I won't be the last to jump on him.....
Further to that...
Just because I'm the best writer on the board doesn't mean that I'm always right. The burden of being the best is quite tiring for me...

Blame football.
- golfingsince

But I like football. I'll blame basketball. Or Curling.

Edit: also, football is a game of stops and starts to begin with, but we've watched two coaches challenges suck the life out of what was a pretty good game.

Fyi I am the best poster here. also I am always right. I still pick Mathews.

Anyone see Czikas punch to the nuts

Matthews is far and away the top prospect, its much closer between the 2 Finns. I don't care if you have a hard-on for Laine......that really doesn't change consensus rankings.

And we and

This part made me laugh.

The whole situation was just gold like you say. I know Dragon has his strong opinions (and it wasn't an outrageous one) but reluctantly dragging Vantel into it just was too funny.

I hear ya.

I just meant the success in football has sent it to other sports.

Matthew may have been number 2 over
Eichel last year had he been born a week earlier
He is the number 1 pick.
Laine may have separated himself from jp but that draft list is shear buggery.
And I've been following try since he was drafted and am poised that dragon Gave Vantel the credit I think is due myself

Edit auto correct

To be a "possible #1" he has to have the possibility of being selected first overall, which he does not...

I hope the NHL doesn't decide to start games with a kickoff during the next round of rule changes.

- WhiteLie

I think I would have ignored it if Vantel wasnt dragged into it against his will

Vantel you may want to consider letting him suck it, pretty sure he wants to.
- golfingsince

I'd be choked if I was a Blues fan. If this exact game happened last year they'd be winning or at the very worst tied.

Within 2 years they'll have advertising on the jerseys.... you heard it here first boys and girl.
Take that Thundercat, only the most righteous of posters would make that claim

I don't think it is fair no but, I don't think it is far and away and no I don't have a hard on for Laine. I still pick Mathews but to assume Laine is some scrub is asinine. This is an average draft not McDavid, Crosby or Ov VS the world. Gimme a break. You have been around long enough not to let this kind of hype get carried away. Come on now I do not see any generational player in this draft. If you say so you're a liar.

I am nt saying he isnt but its close.

Probably not, but they are getting close to a 10 person officiating crew.

Maybe not generational but if you are in the top 5 (which I think the Nucks will stay there) then you are going to get a good player who can help you now as opposed to years down the road
