N H L Returns: Official Ice hockey thread

Please let the Sharks actually be this bad. We have their 1st round pick, and it would be nice to be on the correct side of this sort of thing for once! -

It's a lot of money for a guy with 1.5 ankles. But he's some man, so it's good to see him get paid! -

I went to a game in Buffalo 2 years ago and some fans there could not wait to get rid of O'Reilly. Not sure that has turned out too well for them. Oh and Toronto now have the biggest cup drought in the league, which is nice. -

Quite delicious that Brad Marchand was at fault for the game winning goal. Lovely stuff. -
I always knew it as Black Friday, before the Amazon sale thing kicked off in the UK anyway. My mate who lives in Aberdeen calls it Mad Friday, and he also seems to think it only happens in Aberdeen, and not every town/city in the country...

Well he'll be a free agent soon. Him and Jack Hughes could be Avs thanks to our incompetence. -

I'm sure you felt better by the end. Top tip for playing the Senators, if you have one good line, get them on the ice lots and you will destroy us. -

I think I paid $12 US for that size can at Buffalo last year, but tickets that night were being sold for $10 prior to the game and it was half empty. Think the cans at Senators were about the same but Canadian dollars. Only othe NHL venue I've been to was Tampa and I can't remember the beer cost, but don't think it was too bad. -

New prediction. We finish about 20th in the league but beat all the odds and get the first overall pick for you anyway! -
Took part in my first Ultra Marathon at the weekend in Dunoon. 34 miles round Loch Eck, with about 4,000ft of climb. Having never ran more than a half marathon in a race... Managed to get round in one piece in 5 hours 35. In all honesty, the physical side of it wasn't too bad. More mentally draining, especially when my body didn't want to take on any fuel! Big lessons in that side of the tactics. Not that I'm jumping at the bit to sign up for another one soon! Looking forward to getting back to parkruns and some XC

He won't sign long term in San Jose. He'll go to Tampa if they can find cap space. (or Vegas but that is your division sorry...). Or on dreamland, melnyk sells and he comes home! -

I admittedly ignored this thread for a while... Gut feeling is well do ok this year and that first with be around 6-10 overall. We're only in a 'rebuild' because our owner is a cheap p***k with big debts. -

This is going to be a long long shit season for us (and I'll need to change my profile pic at some point, but it's hard to let go). However, I am going to enjoy the f**k out of that win Vs the leafs last night. Matthews and Tavares completely anonymous. Andersen terrible in net. Hotsam Batcho ruling the ice. Delicious. Hold off on the parade for now boys! -
Cheers, I'll check some of them out. Aye, I enjoyed my afternoon, especially in hospitality. Although County looked a good outfit. Nice to see us with a manager that can graft out a tactical win in tough games like that.

I tried the tartan running shorts one, but the sound quality was quite poor. Not sure if it has upgraded any? What other ones do you listen to? Good run at Greenock on Saturday btw. Comfortably ahead of me

Heel drops are a great exercise for achilles troubles. I've been battling it for 6 months! Another thing that helped me is to ice it soon after a run then apply heat an hour later. I've went through a lot of deep heat! Anyone doing the national XC on Saturday? After swearing to never do it again... I'm sticking to that, and not doing it. Going to go watch though.

Essentially they are the old firm. The Canadian media is 95% Leafs coverage. Even in other Canadian cities with NHL teams. The weird thing is, until the last 2 years, they were utter garbage. Now they high draft picks are kicking in and they appointed a top coach, so they're good. A good example is a recent TSN headline that read 'is Austin Matthews getting enough credit'. On the side bar to the article, the top 5 articles on the website were about Austin Matthews. Thankfully, Ottawa kept up their brilliant recent record over the leafs and won 6-3 on Saturday night [emoji16]. Over half of the Ottawa arena is leafs fans for these games as season ticket holders sell off their tickets to Leafs fans for good money. Also, Ottawa fans hate these games because the behaviour of Leafs fans in their arena is 90% intolerable. The Saturday night games between the leafs and Sens and covered by national Canadian TV. The commentary should therefore be neutral no? Not a chance. Great goals for the leafs, lucky goals for Sens. Great saves by leafs keeper, lucky saves by Sens keeper. It's funny that media coverage in other countries is so similar to our own media's OF love in. -

Shame? That was the only enjoyable leafs game this season. Them being good now is utterly intolerable. -

He has now. James Cowan eh? Can't get a game for a Leafs team that was talking. Can't get in this Avs team. He is not good. -

Fair play. Need Karlsson fit as soon as... -

Only pretty season, but back to back thumpings handed out to the Leafs by the Sens this week. Happy days. Sens twitter abuzz with more Duchene trade rumours, but the Avs probably want Chabot and they ain't getting no Chabot. -

Oh boy, you are in for a treat! Still, it's only a PTO, might be enough time for the Avs to realise he's dogshit. -
Yeah, I'm not having Chemistry at all. Peter Pan grew on me a lot though.

I like it. I've saved it as a playlist on my ipod and removed the infinite contents though, which helps. The stretch of songs starting from Electron Blue are phenomenal.
