As for Cherry, I haven't seen him lately, but the times that I have, he's been a joke. He used to have good stuff to say about the game, even when I disagreed with him, but lately he's just been a clown. Time for him to retire.

Yeah, probably. After all, Canada is known for its comedians.

Hope Yzerman's all right. That was scary.
As for the 3-0 bit: NY Islanders were the 1975 team that did it, to Pittsburgh.

I don't care if we win this series or not. I just want Yzerman to be okay.

Absolutely un*ingbelievable attitudes we're getting out of the East towards the Flames; most vividly from your usual "everything Alberta does is wrong" taint of CBC broadcasts. You know - I'd honestly say that's what it is to be Canadian during playoffs.. cheering the Leafs, Nucks or Canadiens (etc.) whether or not you even gave a damn about them during regular season
quote: As for the Flames, they're going down and as much as I hate the Wings, I'll be cheering when Calgary bites the dust after what Nieminen did. Hitting the goalie like that is one of the cheapest, scummiest things a player can do. Good riddence to them. |
and just what the * do you know, our little FOB darling? You were most probably gargling noodles in a bicycle taxi to the local junk ferry the last time this north brought the cup home. Niemenen is an asshat who's being criticized heavily by his own coach, team and fan CALGARIANS for what he did that game. If you actually knew any sort of hockey history regarding - a greaseball like Chelios on Detroit would cast whatever infantile "that whole team is obviously full of meanies" towards the Wings
anyway - here's cheering for the Leafs tommorrow!! and btw; I only heard the last period of today's game at work. did the Yzerman injury look that bad??

Z--Yzerman is a tough, proud guy. He doesn't go down easy, and when he does go down, he fights his way back up and off the ice.
He dropped like a lead weight, and was kicking his legs in pain. The TV I was watching on wasn't the greatest, but there appeared to be a trail of blood on the ice from where he was flailing.
I heard Ron Maclean say after the second period that Yzerman was seen outside the dressing room with a bandage over his eye.
This being the playoffs, no one has said exactly what happened. Could be anything from a laceration or bruise up to a broken orbit or skull fracture or, heaven forbid, a ruptured globe.

I just saw it
and yeah, the guy is simply class.. what a shame this could be. Skull fracture wouldn't surprise, but the latter is possible - and that sure ends a career

What are you on tonight?
Here's what Sh!tter: "Things like that happen in a game. It's just frustration. I don't know -- I really still don't know what happened. Niemo could have avoided him but, at the same time, I don't think it was blatant or anything like that. He's not a dirty player, we've seen that."
That's what you call heavy criticising. Gimme a break.
Things like that don't just happen. Every player knows you don't attack goaltenders. Anyone else is fair game, but not goalies. That's part of the code.
And the idea that it wasn't blatant is just crap. It was a deliberate intent to injured.
And it was part of a trend. When the Flames are losing, they resort to cheap shots.

No goalie deserves what happened to Cujo.
As for Cujo being a traitor, no way. He was a great Leafs player and after what happened in the Olympics, he had to leave. He did the team a favour by going to Detroit. It was better than staying with the bad blood between him and Quinn.
He also showed this year that he's a class act. He never complained or whined when the Wings had to put him on waivers.
