Slane Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 Well since I can't edit no more, double post for me! Calgary lost 5-2 to the BlackHawks ending the 8 game winning streak. Damn I was hoping they would have at least gotten to 9 and won against Edmonton and tied the Franchise record of 10. O well, it was good game, Blackhawks came back 2nd and 3rd to win it.

bayrider Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 And whoever scored it (can't spell the name) ties the league goal scorer. 586827107[/snapback] you mean Simon Gagne pronounced See-mon Gan-yay... ties Jagr and Alfredsson for first in goals with 18. Pretty good. Of those 18 goals Gagne has scored, i bet 16 or 17 have been assisted by Forsberg :) What a great combo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R-Flex Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 You mean when the rich teams could buy all the talent, leaving no chance for the bottom rung teams? When scoring was so low, you may as well have been watching a soccer game? Yes, that WAS a great period in the NHL. :rolleyes: 586819829[/snapback] Yes. I loved low scoring, when games were competitive, instead of 9-1 everyday. Scoring doesn't equate excitement. Powerplays repeatedly definitely does not equal excitement. As for teams buying championship rings, that doesn't neccessarily work. Detroit Red Wings have an amazing scouting and training system. Rangers did not win. New Jersey, a team that did not spend excessively on free agents, was very successful. In the last several years, teams that did not buy their way to the Cup Finals included Florida Panthers, Tampa Bay Lightning, Calgary Flames, Washington Capitals, Anaheim Mighty Ducks, Buffalo Sabres, and Carolina Hurricanes enjoyed success in this 'era of money.' Besides, that was covered by the salary cap, not the new rules which are detestful. The era of higher salaries and low skill was caused by the rapid expansion to crappy markets for hockey, allowing for low competition and unskilled players to take over.

rvbfan Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 Flames are 9-1-0 this month, and have a share of the division lead. I hope they can keep this up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are doing really well. Last night game was tough and was played very well. Both teams played good with Avalanche getting better goals. But overall it was a good effort on both teams. Flames can go 12-1 this month if the win against Sharks, Oilers and Predators. Which I believe they can, so let's hope so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, although he is ignored, Dion Phaneuf is the best rookie in the league, and has become another excellent member of the strong defence core.

I listen to it on xm, but luckly sportscenter showed a replay of it. The Rangers are off to a great start. I hope they continue this play up through out the season. If they do, they should easily challenge for the division title or get a 4th seed in the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Derf Veteran Posted November 27, 2005 Veteran Share Posted November 27, 2005 The Leafs won against Montreal in overtime to put them 3-0 this year during the overtime period. The don't seem to fare so well in the shootout, however, as they have only ever scored once (Eric Lindros) but that was good enough for a shootout win versus Boston. Their overall shootout record is 1-3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bayrider Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 hey now, we were missing our top 3 D-men and our top forward that game. In all reality you should have blown us out of the water like 8-0... much like u did to the Maple Laffs :) Anyways, i'm sure they're gonna start engraving the names of the Sens players on the cup once the trade deadline is reached.

Napalm Frog Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 Well, the Sens have been doing amazing this season (if you ignore the loss against Boston), and Nashville has been quite a surprise.
