Yeah, what about Bob? How can he be defined as anything but a question mark? He's played two games and all of a sudden the goaltending situation in Philadelphia has been solved? Come on. The overwhelming probability is that Bobrovsky amounts to very little in the NHL; he was undrafted. How can you not look at Philadelphia's goaltending situation as a question mark? If Bobrovsky ends up being an amazing goaltender then that's great for him, but it's highly unlikely.

Of course its still a ???? ,, no one said it was solved... We had what seems like several hundred goalies come through here the last decade or so,, including some highly regarded, high draft picks that amounted to nothing... Signing 'OK' goalies gets you just ok,,, with this question mark there is some hope... He has shown some of the quickest reflexes and flexibility to be seen in some time. He was scouted by many teams,,, why not drafted? Who knows and who cares...Why were the Flyers so high on him for some time and still did not draft him? :dunno::dunno: But now is the grind ,the season, ect ... Time will tell,,, it usually does...
But the draft is just a draft,,, How many 1st rounders make it big ? or even make it?

NHL drafts are a crap shoot, IMO. Of course, all the pro sports sort of are, but only every once in a while a guy like Lindros comes along and everyone is busting their load over them. Oh yeah, Crosby too. The next Gretz' my ass...:facepalm:

Ugh, what the fuck? :mad: I'm watching the Hawks on CSN Chicago on DirecTV. The game is televised and I can see it fine and hear the audio, but there is a message at the bottom right corner of my screen telling me that it's not available in my area. Really? Then how the fuck am I watching it? I can still see the game alright, but it's annoying and it won't clear off the screen. Anybody else getting this?
 
I'm getting it fine on verses.

And by fine, I mean the coverage on verses sucks balls, and the audio is always delayed by about .3 seconds (just enough to be constantly noticeable).

It went away a few minutes ago. Not sure what that was about. :dunno:

You don't get CSN Chicago? I love listening to Pat Foley and Eddie O.

I only watch Versus for their IndyCar coverage and when I can't Hawks games on CSN.

Nope, the Chicago stations are blocked here in favour of the Detroit coverage, even when it isn't on.

Detroit. Fucking. Sucks. Satan's. Balls.

Damn, that fucking blows. I get all Cubs and Hawks games through CSN Chicago and WGN. If the affiliates showed Tigers and Red Wings, I'd be fucking pissed. You have my sympathies.

At least your fucking Irish are always on national television... :rolleyes:

Hey, there was one game in the last eleven years when they weren't shown...

Yeah. The affiliates show Tigers and Red Wings. I'm going to start spending evenings at your house. The TV sounds better.

Fuckin' Christ. A PP goal with 26 seconds to go, FML. Ugly, ugly, game against a goalie making his first start. 0-2 at the UC this year for the Hawks. Fuck. Defense could have used Hjalmarsson tonight. :mad:

Fuck, Toronto is 3-0. I heard that they're already planning to retire Phaneuf's number.
 
GREAT hard fought overtime victory for the Lightning!

Great comeback. 3 stars : Malone , Price , Plekanec. This year Montreal had the idea of letting their fans decide the 3 stars through online voting , so even though their team was outshot by 20 in the game ( 46-26 ), they decided to give their team 2 stars out of 3 ( i'm pretty sure it would have been all 3 if it wasn't for Ryan Malone's OT winner that automatically gave him the first star). I don't understand why the NHL allowed them to do that.

that is dumb. but even so, Price would have been one of the stars anyway. we peppered him and he was the only thing keeping it from being 10-3 Lightning. he was brilliant
