Just heard the NHL pushed for a trade for John Scott so he couldn't play in the All Star game. This is some bullshit right here! They create the system for fans to vote on the players and when they don't like the player that's picked they pull that shit? What a joke!

Definitely over officiated and sometimes really broke up the flow of the game. That was a hell of a final but I also am glad the Finn's won.

Note my double post above!

Tough loss to SWE, their goaltender played really well but the U.S. team didn't have that many grade A opportunity's.

Pretty proud of the US boy's, it's a nice start but I don't think it will be the last time they face each other!

Pretty proud of the US boy's. Don't think that will be the last time they face each other!

I don't know how many hockey fans in the U.S. watch it but it's a GREAT thing to watch and it makes the draft make a little more sense.

Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah to all. All I want for Christmas is a Stanley Cup!!!!:eyesmoke:

I agree, these day's guy's are turning towards the boards to draw a penalty when they have the puck. They need to get that shit out of the game. I still think you can hit someone with their head down but when they have their head down it's usually the first point of contact. They need to come up...

Back then what Scott Stevens did would get you a suspension is all I'm saying. The guy's that have done it in the past (Matt Cooke etc.) have stopped hitting like that. Scott Stevens didn't even get a penalty.

Yea but headshots get you suspended in this age.

Well, he wouldn't have to worry about Scott Stevens giving him a serious concussion. I think he would have an easier time in this era.

Look at the glove also, as much as you can see anyway. No flared cuff by the wrist and a small catching area.

I loved to watch the Russian Rocket in Vancouver. Such a dynamic player! I wonder how Ovechkin would do in the 80's. I really think he woulda fucked some shit up!

That's it, the goalie equip. is huge compared to what it used to be. I do think Coffey would be right there with lighter skates etc. I think there is a wide margin in training and off season than there used to be. Take a look at the goalie equip when I was a kid! That was state of the art shit.

Some teams for sure but the Islanders Montreal and of course Edmonton had 3 lines. I guess it's a good point though. If you think about it though you have to look at the talent disparity between top lines and 3rd lines in each era. No way to definitively evaluate the gap between them. We can...

OOPS! Sorry about that! LOL but when you look up 2015 you get the Blackhawks and Capitals.

I think it's probably Gretzky in today's game without the clutching and grabbing but that's a really tough question. I think with Crosby's mouth he would have to have a guy like McSorley on his line or he'd get his ass kicked. He'd have even less respect from other players back then than he does...

Yea but it started Dec. 16th. Couldn't find the first episode and Epix is the only channel that has the first episode. NHL network has the last 3 along with Epix.

Physical game is more fun to watch but I do like a mix of both. I just think with more teams some of the smaller players are getting a chance and it's good for the league as I've said previously. The thing that suffers is on the defensive side of the game. You can cover up most mistakes in the...
