WHy is there no NHL Discussion Thread in here Bobo, christ you love everything that is philly, the Flyers are rippin it up. I'm from Pittsburgh, and I own a Forsberg Jersey....REPRESENT
NO! Forsberg for Lindros was a crime:rofl:forsberg in anything but an avs jersey should be a crime. but i agree, we need hockey discussions. especially with the olympics coming up im stoked about seeing the swedes, canadians, czechs, russians and slovaks... im just excited to have hockey back
LOL!!! not to mention mike keane and mike ricci coming with forsberg. i wonder how they let that robbery go through? but in the end you have him now... now that he is injury prone and contemplating retirement. looking forward to the avs-flyers game tomorrow! it'll be a good start to the nfl playoff weekend.NO! Forsberg for Lindros was a crime:rofl:

Ummm... yea it wouldn`t be fair to bash someone that is so far behind they need a road map to find first place:icon_lol:elias and the dev's just crushed ur flyers
...and yes of course i know both teams records so whoever is gonna try to flame me u cant use the record thing :rofl: ....
Well, when Roy publicly stated that he would never play for the Canadiens again...It made for a little more flexability on the offer sheet. It could be the curse of Roy that has floundered the Habs of late.oh yeah, thats right. keane came from montreal with roy in another ridiculous trade... pierre lacroix very well may be the biggest thief in pro sports and i love him for it.
.....or bringing up the fact that the last time they met in a game that really mattered the Flyers roasted them at there own stupid trapping game in the '04 playoffsUmmm... yea it wouldn`t be fair to bash someone that is so far behind they need a road map to find first place:icon_lol:
Messier!You can't tell me at the time that Lindros, with the softest hands and sweetest wrist shot of any one his size vs a euro maybe guy, was not at least worth a shot. Lindros was a monster how many players are both the enforcer and scoring star for their teams?( Mats Sundin? )
Lindros first 5 years in the league, He was MVP and had taken the Flyers to the Finals(after a 10 year absence) He was a top 5 all time points per game guy. He just had two things going against Bobby(the stienbrenner/al davis of the NHL) Clarke and a nasty little habit of skating with his head down through center ice. If nothing else the Scott Stevens(career crushing) hit and the Kasparits jaw jacker were two of the best hits in NHL history. Lindros is still a good stick man. Foresberg has had the better career...and the better goalie ( Roy vs too numerous to name)
Nobody ever asked Forsberg to beat the **** out of Marty Mcsorley.
Lindros is without a doubt one of the most talented players to ever play, but he just could not stay healthy. He will always have the "what if" tag attached to him.Messier!
My favorite Lindros moment... when he open up Ulanovs head at the end of the Tampa series:icon_lol:
The man was all that when he wanted to be.
The Stevens hit showed just how much he was hated. His teammates, not a one went to see if he was ok.
Or when he beat the hell out of Barnaby and was thrashing him aorund like a ragdoll.Messier!

Well, I certainly did not mean to include Mark(ruined the best taunting chant in the history of sports...19..40,19..40,19..40) Messier in any Lindros discussion, but.....I said guys his size- Messier 6'1" 200, Lindros 6'4" 240.Messier!

Best looking goal in years!..though the goalie looked like he fell asleep!on a different note, how about that goal ovechkin had against the coyotes monday night?!?! i saw the replay and was like you gotta be kidding me!! that kid is nuts and the fact that he is basically the entire team just amplifies my respect for what he is doing. i read somewhere that he didnt want to go to a team that was a few wins away from the cup that he wanted to carry the team from the bottom up. you gotta respect an attitude like that! he's definitely outshining crosby at this point. and i think crosby is behind marek svatos of colorado at this point to. but overall a great year for rookies! im loving it.
I knew you had it in you:woohoo: You don`t come from these parts and not be a Hockey nut!Or when he beat the hell out of Barnaby and was thrashing him aorund like a ragdoll.
I also like the the Konstatinov hit vs. Detroit. The guy couldn't could skate back to the bench he was hit so hard and fell on his face after whobbling around for a few sec.
He was the most dominant player for a good 6-7 years. The "Legion of Doom" line was unreal for a good 2-3 seasons.
Lindros moment thread pilot--
#2) 1997 Playoffs Tampa Bays has been abusing Lindros the whole series. Lindros determined to stay out of trouble and on the ice does not retaliate. Until, the Flyers take a 2 goal lead in the deciding game with about 4 minute to play. Lindros enter the ice on a seek and destroy misson, racking up three knock downs including ripping open a hole in the head of long time nemisis Igor Ulanov.
Dats what I`m talking about:nutkick:
Another one... the end to end rush and GOAL to clinch the Rangers series.
Such promise... such disappointment.

Which time?:rofl: Man he had so many quick snap goals... softest hands I`ve seen since Tim Kerr.
By the the way for those listening it wasn`t a hit that opened up Ulanovs head. But multiple fists:nutkick:
Man could fight... Only guy I heard Dave Brown say he wouldn`t want to rumble.
Ziggy Palfy's retirement will not help the Penguin cause, He must have been having no fun!Christ on a bicycle, DO the pens ever suck, I went ot the hockey store today and picked up my Flyers shirt. I had to put hockey on hold being that the Steelers mad eit ot the AFC champ game. I'm currently consumed by that.
bite meSenators are taking the cup this year, no question.
accept it. move on.bite me
Bryan Berard of Columbus falied a drug test. He tested positive for nandrolone.someone on the capitals just failed a drug test for the olympics, im guessing its for steroids. i think he was banned by both the NHL and, of course, the olympics.
He also passed two subsequent tests after his positive test...I thought that nandralone stayed in the system for months at a time??? Maybe its only deca that lingers for that long:think:Yep Berard. It was for the US olympic testing (Even though he wasn't on the team) He has received a two year ban from international competition. And probably won't receive any suspension from the NHL as this test was from back in November and isn't valid per the collective barginning agreement.
You're kidding right:blink: Was Toronto not included in this survey:icon_lol:Philly was voted the number one hockey city!
