guys like arturs irbe and j.s. giguerre used to have bulky equipments are gonna have hard time blocking pucks now lol.
there was a while when nhl's proposing this weird oval shape net, are they gonna use it in the near future or it's just part of the proposal that got rejected?

i think the goalies are the ones that suffer the most for the "NewEra" of the nhl
well...but i guess more goals are more entertaining for many
just like bball and baseball (especially baseball, for a no hitter game is very....boring)

the more free wheeling hockey does give hockey fans (or spectators in general) a more pleasant game to watch. But I think a good game doesn't necessarily mean high scoring, the stellar defense that prevents each team to score constitutes a good game too, tho some might say it's boring to watch. I think the fun of hockey doesn't limit to just scoring, but also the ups and downs like the excitement to see a player almost scores but then either the goalie making the save/a dman blk-ing the shot. Now offence's kinda like > than def take for examples no 2 line pass and the shootout, so it's offensive oriented game now. I wonder if goalies can have a GAA under 2.00 this year. Maybe I'm reminiscing the older rules but I guess hockey's moving forward now.
But I think hockey's a very fluid game comparing to like football. God all those 5 mins breaks between each play. Why the Americans like to watch a sports that doesn't flow. This is the sports that really needs changes.

at least lindros and oneill are younger than roberts and nieuwendyke
but i think the leafs are capable of picking up better players than these since they are so free spending, and they should unload belfour he's 42 rite
canucks were victorious tonight

bump
nucks beat the avs 6-4
3rd period was a bit shaky i think they were thinking they got a huge lead (5-1) and they could sit back but boom 3 goals scored by the avs to trail for only 1 goal, but linden managed to score the empty netter to finish it off. The nucks really need to show great strength for 60mins, not 40 mins.

i think teams are still getting used to the new system and nucks happen to be a skating team so they have the upperhand early on. And their special teams are working so far, but on a full strength they don't seem to outshine the other team a lot. And the avs' comeback is a warning of their crumbling 3rd period playing i think it already happened to the nucks a few yrs ago when they weren't trying to play good hockey in the 3rd. Teams that are actually good are the wings, avs, flyers, and sens. So hopefully crawford's gonna somehow motivate the team to play solid hockey for full 3 periods and the 2nd line would step up on a full strength (too weak physically) i think they are fine and should still be a contender, if not a stanley cup champ. But we as fans dun wanna wait it's already been 11 yrs now ...

exactly they lost quite a few important faceoffs in the last game and the avs took those chances and kept pushing in van's defensive zone. Lucky clouts saw the shooting lane and made the saves. The time the avs spent in nucks' def zone on a full strength was way longer than the nucks. Also their dmen esp the 5th and 6th dmen have to play on a nhl level. Allen's been proving that lately but mccarthy is not really the guy he's kinda in between the minors and pro. Losing sopel and malik really hurt the nucks sigh.
Seems like a lot of holes to fill for a team that's playing well lately haha how sarcastic but then like u said playoffs is a totally different story.

nucks 3 wild 1
nhl.com is such a d*ck they never put nucks on the headline they care less about west coast teams, all they know is the avs and red wings ... and lately the flames and that's about it.
tho the nucks have yet to prove they are fully dominating but how bout some respect. Maybe a stanley cup run is needed to put them on the headline. Anyway, not having exposure is trivial but sometimes it's annoying.
