serge 904 Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Brad Marchand is a piece of crap. He has now been suspended 5 times and fined 6 times. He has lost a total of $879000 since 2011. Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Why do the Carolina Hurricanes play the fastest games *every single night*? Any time there's a handful of 7:00 starts or whatever, they consistently finish 5-10 minutes ahead of all other games. Always. Never fails. Even when they're on the road, they seem to be ahead of the other games. Link to post Share on other sites

MapleLeafs 142 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Hmm Daniel scored 2 goals in their last home game. His first goal was his 22nd scored at the :33 second mark. His second was the OT winner scored at 2:33. Daniel wore #22 Henrik wore #33 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Babying 613 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 My biggest memory of the twins was when Otto and I were at the hotel before Vancouver flew out. Daniel went to get Starbucks and he had one in each hand. He put the other coffee on top of each other and held it with his chin while he signed autographs. Truly nice guys Link to post Share on other sites

MapleLeafpoker 1,462 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 I struggled to stay awake to watch that game, but it was worth every minute of sleep lost. They genuinely seem like good people, and they were an absolute treat to watch play hockey all these years. I dont recall the last time I cheered so loudly at a goal being scored in a game that I had no true rooting interest in. (ie Canes/pool/bet) 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Babying 613 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 I stayed up too and just knew Sedin was going to score. Great game. Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 I just watched the replay. That was awesome. I checked the three stars. They didn't bother awarding a third star. Neat little tribute. Link to post Share on other sites
MapleLeafpoker 1,462 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 I would love this... If the Flyers and #FlaPanthers are tied in points, ROW. head-to-head, and goal differential after Sunday, they will play a tiebreaking game, the league announces. This happens if the Flyers lose by two goals on Saturday and the #FlaPanthers win both of their remaining games in shootouts. Link to post Share on other sites

digitalmonkey 929 Posted April 9, 2018 Author Share Posted April 9, 2018 The amount of support coming in from all over the world for this tragedy is amazing. It's unfortunate it seems to often take something tragic like this, but it's nice to be reminded how many caring and empathetic people there still are out there. Link to post Share on other sites
serge 904 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Its amazing how many people this has touched and how close knit the hockey community is..We were at the California State Championships and EVERYONE was hurt and felt a connection to the boys. We all have kids that travel lots of miles to games, we all know someone connected to Saskatchewan somehow. 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon is a lot less in the hockey community. I have mentioned Kevin Kaminski before. He is from Saskatchewan and knew a lot of people in that organization and league. Its beyond words how tragic this is for the community. Like Dale said, its amazing how people come together. On the ice our boys were battling, but off the ice we had parents come to us and see if we have green hockey tape so they can honor the Broncos on their helmets..Moment of silence before the first game and playing of O Canada before the championship games was very touching. We are thousands of miles away in California , I am sure there was similar things all across North America and the world as well. Its been very difficult for me to watch the videos and pictures of the kids..The picture with them all in the dressing room with their hair dyed blond for the playoffs just broke my heart. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

So, so true. I really liked what Jann Arden said, I think you liked or rt'ed it Dale... I wish we could be kind and thoughtful and caring- towards each other- Without a tragedy. The preciousness of life- only realized when it is taken away. Link to post Share on other sites
