147 pages in the 2010-11 Thread. Here start's next season.

Now the season's over, Boston has the cup for the summer, but it's all up for grabs come autumn. Bump it through the slow summer months as transactions occur

Oh, and to start some tradition: LOL @ Anaheim.


Who's winning the cup next?

All the Canucks are on one team and all the Bruins and Hawks on the other? I actually have someone to cheer for in an ASG.

Also, totally called Couture as last pick. FREE CAR

If I have time tomorrow, I might go to the NHL fan fair. It's like a 5 minute walk from campus, hopefully I can get some autographs.

Not all star related at all, but I'm pretty stoked to hove the AHL Adirondack Phantoms moving down here to Allentown. Gonna be like 15 minutes away from the new stadium so I'm sure friends and I will get up there for a bunch of games.

Not just that, it's a Honda Crosstour which is a fucking sick car. Seriously if I was going to own a 2nd car it would be that right now.

Chara is a freak of nature. However, it isn't really fair to call it a "record" considering the sticks being used today compared to in days past. Al Iafrate doing it with the technology of 20 years ago is far more impressive.

Sidney Crosby with 2 fractured vertebras.. I guess they are healed and they are expecting him to be ready by the playoffs. Thats still bullshit, I doubt he will play which is a smart move. He should just take the year off, work out to stay in some what decent shape and start training again in the summer.


The skills comps were sick!

he had a spinal issue. its fully healed.

there are a bunch of players in the nhl right not that are suffering from their 2nd and 3rd concisions.

Max Pacioretty broke his neck last year and he is back out doing well.


your logic is possible, im not throwing that out.

Keep in mind though that Crosby is very, VERY prone to being injured again.

Would have loved to see him have a long career but the way it looks I can't see that happening. Either way, it is still incredible what he was able to do thus far.

Yeah. It's not that bad for 3 on 3. Pretty crappy ice, and it gets super busy on weekends, but show up early during the beginning of the week with a few friends, and it's a good spot to skate around on.

How does that work? Or do you mean it's private ice times after 6pm? Because if they turn the lights off at 6 I don't see how anyone could actually play or how there could even be a beer league. Last ice time at rinks here is like 12:30am.

All times are Eastern (-4)
