MapleLeafpoker 1,462 Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 yesterday was the first time in 17 games they had given up a goal in the first period. thats unreal!wtf?What the hell is going on last 2 months? NJ is like 25-2 and Colorado is like 2-25.Interestingly, in both situations, Ive read rumours of problems in the room. NJ early on, especially before McLean was fired, and with Colorado since practically November.Curious if there's anything to this, or just a spectacularly one sided run for both.

dEv~ 19 Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Not to be a smart ass, but isnt it just better to get a television?It's looks that way yea. The newer tv's come with all the web apps installed but a roku is just a tiny box I hook up to my 3 year old hdtv's that can stream netflix, hulu, etc, and I was hoping it could handle gamecenter. I didn't get NHL Center ice this year and only recently got a month's subscription to gamecenter. Gamecenter works much better on my computer so I guess that's how I'll have to watch it.

gruven 530 Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 Unbelievable. Gary Bettman talks about clamping down on headshots, Dany Heatley goes OUT of his way to elbow steve ott in the head, BEHIND the play, and the NHL's firm response? 2 f'in games. What a joke...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJvY2WjIbLM Link to post Share on other sites

It is finishing your check when you change directions, stick your armour plated elbow up and hit somebody in the head isn't it ? Link to post Share on other sites
digitalmonkey 929 Posted March 17, 2011 Author Share Posted March 17, 2011 Heatley should have shoved him into the stanchion. Link to post Share on other sites
digitalmonkey 929 Posted March 17, 2011 Author Share Posted March 17, 2011 Also, I've only seen it once, but Marchand's hit looks like a headshot from behind. He's getting a phone call from Colin Campbell who will have Mike Murphy do the speaking.EDIT:Here's the video: Link to post Share on other sites
coesillian 0 Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 Yes, but then I can't use my computer while watching the game.I think you just have to set up your tv and computer monitor as dual monitors. Then you could play gamecenter on the tv while browsing the net on your computer monitor. Link to post Share on other sites

Zach6668 513 Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 Seems to be some reaction that for the Marchand hit, and the Heatley hit, that 2-games is too little, given the recent outrage towards hits to the head. Thoughts? Link to post Share on other sites

Fenxis 99 Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Seems to be some reaction that for the Marchand hit, and the Heatley hit, that 2-games is too little, given the recent outrage towards hits to the head. Thoughts?In a recent poll:25% of respondents said they would watch less hockey because of the Chara hit75% of respondents said they would watch the same amount of hockey because of the Chara hit01% of respondents said they would watch more hockey because of the Chara hitGiven the NHL's soft numbers a panic button is being hit -- very worried that they have hit a tipping point. As usual, however, their rush to send the disciplinary pendulum in the other direction will annoy everybody! Link to post Share on other sites
serge 904 Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 It's very likely there won't be a 50 goal scorer this year. Also outside chance no 100 pt scorer. Link to post Share on other sites
