what a guy that koivu, and wow that save huet made, unbeleivable
Yes man yes! People here in Montreal don't really like Koivu that much because he's been here for 10 years and yet he only knows about 20 french words. Not to mention that the crowd here is hard on ppl with less than 80 points in aregular season.

About Huet, he did atleast 3 saves in the first game. He's good yet not the best and very lucky. I hope Murhpy continus to stay off Christobald's (Huet) back.

Pip'

Raycroft played okay but I'm looking forward to Toskala taking charge.

The Leafs seem to alway suffer these types of defeats. If we enter the third period with a one goal lead then the game is as good as lost. :(

the leafs played good for the first 50 mins of the game. if they would have scored a couple of times on the pp, then they wouldn't have lost the game.

Can someone explain to me why the NHL would have interest in movement of Nashville to KANSAS CITY? Cant the team be moved to a more hockey-loving town like Hamilton? Winnipeg? or Quebec???

The southeast division also needs implosion. Carolina? Florida? Washington? Atlanta? Do these teams actually draw crowds? Tampa at least is in the top 5 in attendance each year...the other four are in the pooper.

Considering the NHL needs contraction, I say we disband Atlanta and Florida since they haven't won crap and dont have any superstars. Then move Washington to Hamilton and Carolina to either Winnipeg, Quebec, or Hartford.

Atlanta is a good team. I am not sure about their draw power in their city though. Other than that, Quebec could use another team, same with Winnipeg if possible. I could also see another team in the states, just not sure where... Seattle maybe?

14 games in one night and not one of them is shown in the UK. :no:

That is brutal. I wonder what the market for hockey is like up there? Do you think it would be able to get the viewers?

It is too bad though, because tonight Montreal vs Toronto! And of course Montreal had better win after that terrible performance that got them kicked out of the playoffs.

    • Yeah, this is absolutely nothing new and EA have done it before. Burnout Paradise, released in 2008, had dynamic advertising billboards that were updated via the internet and targeted people based on location and what EA knew about them from their profile. It was particularly notable for the fact that the Obama presidential campaign ran ads in the game, in an attempt to reach a younger audience who didn't watch broadcast TV any more. It was by no means the first though. Battlefield 2142 from 2006 had the same thing. In fact, Neowin wrote a story about it back then. https://www.neowin.net/news/ba...-in-game-ads-clarification/
    • This is obviously aimed at the education where Apple has lost so much ground to Chromebooks in the last few years, but unless they come up with a comparable management system for education why would anyone switch back?
    • Here's how we arrived at that claim: Note that this is just Play Store downloads. The app is also available on the Galaxy App Store
    • Google Play states the app had more than 50 million downloads. What other metric do you suggest should be used?
    • MSN defined our generation in some ways, kind of like Snapchat and TikTok have done for future generations. I have great memories of the MSN era in the late 90s / early 2000s. In the UK everyone seemed to come home from School and go on MSN for the evening. We didn't really have mobile phones then, so other than going and knocking on your friends door it was a totally new way of interacting with people. I also loved how I could talk to people I’d met playing online games from around the world. Inviting people to NetMeeting and messing about with the shared white board and webcams was pretty fun, even if webcams only ran at a couple of fps over dial-up. All the random things you could do with MsgPlus! were really fun - I suspect that made a few people jump with /shello randomly blasting Mr Hankey out their speakers! Maybe I’m just nostalgic, however I do feel the internet and computers were more fun back then.
