The NHL is a joke............

Deuce · 05-25-09, 05:28 PM

Habs were this year. I fail to see a problem otherwise, maybe a little to soft on the calls.

jjgold · 05-25-09, 05:29 PM

I thought the game was tonight that is why I bet it, fuk!!!

Nicky the hockey playoffs are a joke also because almost every game has no defense. Real hockey playoffs are tight low scoring games.

what the hell you talkin about?

Nicky Santoro · 05-25-09, 05:33 PM

jj, this is a joke.. nascar is not on tonight.. a few lousy baseball games.. pirates, nats, etc.. no big games there.. 1 late NBA game.. it's a big holiday. this is the best time to showcase the game in the U.S..

and what does bettman do?... schedule no game today when it is the best possible day to have one.. they would have had tons of U.S. viewers.. which is what NHL is looking for.

what a joke. i am pissed. i really was looking forward to it.. there was no better day than today for a game.

yessssssssssssssssssss.. can't wait.. i will watch this along with the other 6 canadians across Canada..

yisman · 05-25-09, 06:06 PM

the playoff schedule has made no sense.

They make Penguins and Capitals play Games 5 and 6 in different cities on back to back days, yet this is now the second time there's been a two day gap between games in a series. Why?

Each series should have a game every other night. Penguins-Capitals should be on tonight, then Red Wings-Blackhawks tomorrow night.

sickler · 05-25-09, 06:15 PM

To make matters worse, even if both series are over on Wednesday, the finals won't start until June 5.

That's eight days later......

^^^^^^^^^^

Actually it would be nine days later. Even worse.

Nicky Santoro · 05-25-09, 06:19 PM

that's why the NHL is a joke.. when there are sweeps, we sometimes have to wait close to 2 weeks before the next series, unlike the NBA where it starts 2 days after..

tonight is a joke.. nothing going on tonight,.. no baseball, nothing.......... a U.S. holiday to boot, and NO GAME.. and they usually play today cause they always skip 1 day, and today is the 1 day..

that sucks.. i was really in the mood tonight to watch hockey.

flyingillini · 05-25-09, 06:19 PM

Who is Gary Bettman?

ouch. And there's a good chance that happens.

If we had gotten two sweeps, it would've been epic.

i need my hockey fix tonight and i am in the mood for some good hockey.. and guess what.. no freakin game on..

Gary Bettman is an idiot..

the season is coming to an end, and im going insane...i need my fix just as bad as you

DwightShrute · 05-25-09, 07:25 PM

here at the pacific coast at the beach in Nicaragua, found a bar on the beach , drinking rum and getting ready to watch some hockey on my laptop but NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Oh well, laker game outta be good

The General · 05-25-09, 07:32 PM

It would be nice to have a hockey game esp since I find NBA so boring until about halfway into the 4th quarter.

At least from semis to final won't be as long a wait as Champions League soccer. Final is tomorrow, semis were three weeks ago.

No worries Nicky, I have now found Allah, he has made me a better person. Paco Pepe, the Islamic Assassin has showed me the light. Islam is the future and also the future of SBR.

OMG. A Francophone calling someone a Jew?? Nicky are you off your meds or are you just feeling bitter lately?

tomcarter · 05-26-09, 03:24 PM

we may have an 8 day wait for the finals to begin if detroit and pitt wrap this up, bettman and nbc have really screwed this whole playoff up.

8 days!!!!!!!!

nbc is the worst tv deal any sport has ever made.

its sad, but the nhl is really no more than a low level sport like mls soccer in the us.

believe it or not, i am not on meds, nor have i ever taken a pill in my life.. i have nver touched a drug in my life, don't even knwo what they look like.. i dont drink, never liked alcohol.. never smoked a puff of a cigarette either.. actually, 2 times i took a puff once and both times i was coughing like nuts.. but i know i should be on meds. everyone here thinks i need them.. i am screwed up, pucker.. pucker, i am a sick man.

but gary bettman is still a dirty JEW, and i am not bitter either.. he had no excuse about not putting up a game last night on memorial day, and i will NEVER forgive that jew for that.. i am still pissed..

mathdotcom · 05-26-09, 05:00 PM

Nicky... hockey's still going on?

I feel like it's been so long since the last game that it's already July.

You are right Nicky. Nicky.
