Colaiacovo (gotta be one of the hardest names to spell, ever) hasn't signed with Detroit.

I know that, I just copied and pasted a former Crazed post where I replied to it with the same Duck Hunt dog. He said he wanted some smack talk, so I reminded him of the bevy of turnstiles the wings have!

Well hopefully your team has the depth to prevent the other team from taking shots on your all-star goaltending tandem there.
 
NHL Legends additions for '13:
Kuri
Hasek
Gilmore
Angela Ruggiero
Haley Wickenheiser


Come on now, are those last 2 really necessary? Especially with the amount of actual NHL legends that aren't in this game yet. Where's Mess and Bure?

I can sadly say I have never heard of the bottom 2.

Oh wait, WTF women's hockey? No wonder I never heard of them.
 
You'll probably find that the East isn't a mystery to us as the West is to you guys. 4:30 games. I'm very familiar with Turris. Not to mention his four years in Phoenix.

I'm sure watching Sens games ranks very high on your list of things to do at 4:30 PM .....

In any case he was way better here than in Phoenix and was on his way to a 49-50 pt season if he hadn't missed training camp and the 1st half of the season. He should do even better now that he's put on some weight.

But hey I just watched him for 55 games in Ottawa so what do I know.

What a topsy turvy world we are in.

Ottawa fans chirping Vancouver fans?
I wouldn't call it chirping. It's more like that faint,irrelevant buzzing sound that mosquitoes make.

Turris is from Van and actually went to my HS. Always followed him. Was hoping the Canucks would get him from Phoenix. Just wanted to give you guys a hard time. Who knew you were so sensitive.

Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
Eklund reporting this:

I will have more soon, but a big negotiating chip may be to allow all current salaries to remain unchanged and somehow affect the cap at a lower percentage

Yeah, yeah, I know, it's Eklund.

But, if that part is actually true, why even have a cap? What is the point?

Well, the key part there is current salaries. I imagine it's just some way to get around lowing the cap without having to do a rollback.

Pretty big deal in Buffalo today. The Sabres just won the rights to develop the land in front of their arena. It will change from this:

to this:

by the 2015 opener. Details are scarce right now, but it will contain 2 public ice rinks, a hotel, restaurants, retail, etc. Pegula dropping another $125M for this. At this rate the guy is going to be a local legend around here even if we never get a winning hockey team

Any more concept photos?

Is it going to be where the parking lot currently is, or where that HSBC building is?

Ok, I have not been paying much attention to this lockout shit. What is the issue here?

As far as I am concerned these fuckers make too much money already. I really hope if the season is a right off that people stand up and stop supporting the teams.. fat chance in Canada but still.

There's actually a pretty well received doctoral thesis that's been floating around the field. Here, I'll share it:

Probably the hardest I've ever laughed at something on GAF.

Fuuucckkk finishing school and not having a job right after and the process is probably the worst shit ever.

Sorry for the random OTness.

Know that feel bro. Keep it up. My best opportunities have come from contacting old bosses and professors and basically just saying "Hey I'm looking, know anyone?" Sometimes you have pointless meetings. Sometimes you get really useful help.

What Bruce said, and on the same token, some of them might dick you around like I had been some time ago.

Friend called and offered to speak to me about a job, ended up trying to sell herself to me as an investing consultant. Made a thread about it. Dastardly knows that feel.
