Demtira and Rachunek were on the team, but no confirmation of who was on the plane. From the Sens website.

been a tragic hockey summer.

zerogravityfat · « **Reply #218 on:** September 07, 2011, 08:24:29 AM »

One of our prospects was likely on the plane, terrible news.

Zydar · « **Reply #219 on:** September 07, 2011, 08:25:58 AM »

Terrible news. And our Swedish goalie Stefan Liv was probably on that plane too, nobody knows yet.

Dreger Media Mode was funny, but Root Sports Mode and Matt Cooke Mode were my favorites.

Still having a tough time wrapping my heard around this:

I saw that yesterday here:
https://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=376188

Seems like the guy is making up for his mistake.

I just finished watching the Vancouver-Calgary game.

I was really stoked to see the Leafs-Flyers game but those bozos at NHL Network blacked it out so I had to wait three hours to get my fix.

zerogravityfat · « **Reply #236 on:** September 21, 2011, 06:53:04 PM »

hockey is back baby!

sykora scored a hat trick in scrimmage, and just scored on lundqvist, he may earn a minimum wage in the devils line up.

larsson is looking pretty solid as well, he picked up an assist on that goal.

Well the Islanders have the Sharks goalie now....so we're all set to fail.

So I'd rather not create an account until I know how the pool works. Could you give me a basic rundown?

Worst case senario is the Islanders are in the playoff race until the last few weeks. Best case senario is that they make it and become shit disturbers.

Of course the Devils are primed for a deep run as they've addressed their defensive woes and got bigger up front.

Is Steve Bernier that much of a head case that he won't get 25 goals this year?

leafs look like they have a lot of jump this year (Of course that's pretty much been the case over the last few years)

I need to find out why I can't get Flyers games on cable when my cable company OWNS the Flyers (and has interests in most of the league).

YtseBitsySpider · « **Reply #243 on:** September 24, 2011, 10:42:39 AM »

tv in general for the NHL is a colossal fuck up...even in Canada....NHL teams here are SO important they black out each other's games. Dumb Dumb Dumb.

it's a live draft with 2 keepers for next year, 6 teams for each conference 12 total. something like 10 categories for goals, assists, etc, and goals against, wins, saves for goalies, head on head weekly, the winner is by categories won, but your head to head is not relevant, it's just picking up category wins for overall lead. let me know if you need any other info.
