Canadian Hockey Team

cant really compare the 2 sports, totally different.
i think baseball is really boring to watch. the pitcher takes forever to make a pitch, the batter have a 25% chance of hitting, and when he does hit its usually a ground ball. oh well, some ppl likes it so what can u do? to me its as slow a game to watch as golf.

ya i don't really like it, i'd probably fall asleep watching it, up here in edmonton, the local baseball team is good, and they won like 4 championship in their league, but people don't like baseball so much that they have to give away free tickets to make people watch and people usually don't even bother showing up cause they rather watch the eskimos or the oilers, haha

[superkaratemonkey]

in the states they give away hockey tix 4 free cuz they rather watch bowling!! i wish i live there

[trizz251]

well if you live in the states you'd be a big baseball or football fan. hcokey just ain't your thing down there, if your up here, it's hockey all the way

One of the biggest complaint about hockey is that people find it hard to following the puck... which I find it hard to believe.

[trizz251]

are you talking to americans again, cause the puck ain't that hard to follow. plus it's common sense that wherever the players are heading for, that 's where the puck is, i just think they hate hockey and wanna screw it over. or maybe it's cause we're canadians and seeing the puck is instinctive

[superkaratemonkey]

remember a few yrs ago when fox have those laser beams on the puck so ppl can follow it?? dat die pretty quickly. those pucks cost alot, like $1000 each, and players keep shooting them over the glass! haha, fox lost so much money.

[trizz251]

fox? who's that, but that's just a waste of money, haha why not get those tv channels to put the blue dot on the puck so ppl can see it, haha

[trizz251]

just to spice things up here, man we are so dead in this thread heres the standings for the ahl and as you can notice the two hottest teams on this thread, roadrunners and moose are third and second place respectively

[superkaratemonkey]

haha moose kicks butts! jason king is awesome
oh man, zholtok passed away, heart attack apparently. RIP. hes such a good player, specially for the wild.
and heatly, got a serious eye injury. that guy is cursed! one serious injury after another.

[trizz251]

wasn't he a former OIL, well RIP to him, but my roadrunners gonna surpass your mooses, at one time our guys were top of the league, haha

[superkaratemonkey]

the roadrunners time is up, time for moose to dominate. who on the roadrunners is actually good anyways?

[trizz251]

raffi torres i guess and jarret stoll and the goalie dude, can't remember his name

[superkaratemonkey]

edm have no good goalie in their system, just look at their nhl roster, conklin and makkennen, if they have any good goalie at all he'll be playin in the nhl

[trizz251]

hmm well conklin and markanen are seriously not the kind of goalie you want for a starter, what we need in now is a complete makeover, new goalies, defencemens, forwards, coaches, managers

[James Ko]

if you guys are into management of hockey

try out this games

NHL Eastside Hockey.... very good game.

[trizz251]

i'll try it where do you get it?
and HAHHAHAHAHA

edmonton top of the league once again, manitoba back to second, hahha

[superkaratemonkey]

edm drafted a goalie in this yr's draft, dubnyk or sumthing like dat. hes supposed to be good.
i will give dat game a try, i heard good things about it. but im busy rite now. i also like to play nhl2005, the dynasty mode, its alot like running a hockey team in real life too

[trizz251]

i wanna get it, but i don't wanna waste ne more money on repetitive sports game, even if it's hockey so i'll get it somewhere for free, haha don't tell the cops

[James Ko]

ya hockey management is almost as good as watching the game. It is totally different experience then playing your team thru the seasons.

i am sure you will curse when you team lose and feel a joy when they win

[trizz251]

haha save my #2000 post for this one, haha special thread. but i should really get the game and try out management and see what all those ppl go through, haha, but i probably run my team into bankrupcy
