if a streak of bad years piles up like it has for the oilers...i believe...that managment is to blame not the players...kevin lowe may have been a good hockey player but he sucks as a hockey administrator...time to start firing managment starting at the top.

was working for an oil company for 30 years...now i work for my wife as a general handyman.i love edson and this part of the world...1 1/2 hours to edmonton and 1 1/2 hours to jasper...best of both worlds.too bad the winters stretch from nov to april...i am happy to trade the snow for solitude tho...nearest heighbour is 1/2 mile away...i have enough land and house is situated so that no matter where anyone builds i will never have anybody looking in my livingroom window.

No need to apologize, Derrek. We all get frustrated with extended periods of poor team play. I have suffered with that in almost every one of my favorite teams in the sports I follow. You hit the nail on the head with the front office in Edmonton. They have not been able to put it together for too long.

Yeah no need to apologize. We all have that frustration. Speaking of which, your Oilers just rang up 4 goals in 10 minutes on the Flames... arrrggggg!

No Datsyuk for the Wings and no Toews for the Hawks tonight.

Nice win. Glad someone could beat those friggin father time defiers

dvickery · 02-21-2012, 10:11 PM

barker out potter in...improves the backend.
whitney playing his 11th game since injury...in game shape finally...improves the backend.
dubnyk...improves the backend.

result:kick cowgary

Nice win versus the Flames, Derrek...6 goals by 6 players, and 3 point for Jordan.

Hawks win their 4th straight, including beating the Rangers, Blues and Wings (without Toews). I think we are back on the right track, Crawford has looked much better the last week.

Nothing against the win as they deserved it but the Flames were icing half an AHL squad...

Tom, I hope there is zero truth to the rumor that Kane is being shopped. That kid is very, very good. These wins will probably silence those calling for change eh?

As a counter the wheels have fallen of the sharks wagon and someone just decided to throw a gernade in also to make sure it was nice and fugged

icehog3 · 02-21-2012, 11:09 PM

Didn't see the game, Mike, just the score. Not good?

Ahbroody · 02-22-2012, 12:47 AM

I couldnt finish watching it. Thankfully I was at work.
Getting beat like that by one of the worse teams in the league is sad.
I think they are 1-4-1 on this trip. the only victory was the caps who had a minor league goalie in net. really they should be 0-5-1

GreekGodX · 02-22-2012, 07:10 AM

Good game last night Hawks vs. Wings. Thought the Hawks played scrappy and kept coming at the Wings, and it paid off.

Can't wait for Quincey to suit up for the next game! That will really tighten up the Wings D and give some insurance for when Lidstrom retires.

icehog3 · 02-22-2012, 10:00 AM

Quincy was a real good pick-up for Detroit, Son. Hoping the Hawks follow suit before the deadline.

icehog3 · 02-22-2012, 08:02 PM

Roenick started those rumors with his Big Bazoo, Brett, I don't think that Hawks have any intention of moving Kane at this point.

Yeah I heard that too now that you mention it. JR...gotta love him

E.J. · 02-22-2012, 11:52 PM

Good to see the Avs get a win(2 points out of the 8). I was at a HS Hockey game, so didn't catch it, didn't even DVR it, but happy all the same.

Bruins Fan · 02-23-2012, 06:23 AM

Nice win for the B's last night snapping the Blues home winning streak and a great game to watch. Hopefully they will get things turned around?
We have no right wingers and have guys playing that should not even be in the NHL.
CJ shortened the bench and moved Krejci to wing he had a good game.I don't know what his problem is he got a new contract time to earn it.
B's need to get some help deadline is coming up Chiarelli says the asking price is crazy so we won't be getting any impact players?

This is what I was talking about

As of Feb 17th, the Penguins were #1 in the league in respect to Man Games lost per Game.

Boston on the other hand was 30th.
