Screw the Hawks Go Wolves! I'll eventually get over the Amonte thing, but I will not get over the Fleury thing. This guy is the biggest hack ever. Wirtz is the cheapest owner in the league, and will not pay to put a team capable of winning the cup. I request that you change the title of this board to "Other section 8 events". Because I will organize a Wolves outing. It's way more fun and it's on Saturdays. You're not gonna like the nets at the UC. Seen 'em, don't like 'em.
Hockey too hard to follow the puck, especially if your vision isn't the greatest - indoor soccer's a better game - just my opinion
Re: Hockey It's a matter of getting used to following the game, and anticipating where the puck is going to go.
Yes, upon further review, to say it's "too hard to follow the puck" is too simplistic of an indictment of the game. I just don't enjoy the NHL product. I do prefer the international game with the wider rinks and lack of fighting. But I really don't mean to start a discussion that really belongs on a hockey message board somewhere. I guess I still remember the indoor Sting glory days and fighting for respect and attention against the hockey elite.
I'm not gonna tell you guys you can't continue posting about the merits of the sport of hockey or the nature of the Hawks organ-I-zation but damn, maybe give it a rest here, in this thread? I'm probably going to split those posts off and if you want to discuss it further, feel free, and I'll even link to it from this thread.
Hawks stuff from ESPN: http://msn.espn.go.com/nhl/columns/buccigross_john/1441605.html To even suggest that Sergei Berezin will fill Tony Amonte's skates, as the Blackhawks have implied, is arrogant and insulting to Blackhawks fans. and http://espn.go.com/nhl/news/2002/1008/1443071.html Fleury in rehab for second time in 20 months CHICAGO -- Theo Fleury, the Chicago Blackhawks' main offseason acquisition, was suspended indefinitely by the NHL on Tuesday for violating his substance abuse aftercare program. This team is a mess.
The Theo thing is ridiculous. There's no way they didn't know before they signed the bum? Stupidity. Oh well, same old crap. fighting with Columbus and Nashville for the basement rights.
Lo Lo Lo at the Wolves During the third period of the Wolves game last night, a friend of mine said we need singing like the Fire fans do. Well we started the Fire lo lo lo song replacing Fire with Wolves. The Wolves came back from 3-2 to win 7-4. We took full credit for the win because of our singing(LOL). If any Fire Fans want to go to the Wolves I say sit in section 208. Wear your Fire scarfs and Wolves shirt.
