Is hockey back?

Fuckin' right it is.

[Manzivino]

Seeing a new thread in this forum is pants-tenting. Can they play tomorrow? LET'S FUCKING GO!

Here's a refresher on who plays where now, in case you forgot like I did.

Half a Civic for half a season. Protect it nonetheless.

[PedroSpecialK]

Outstanding sir

[MiracleOfO2704]

Mike Grier's still pissed about that save.

I'm assuming that's the Buffalo Game 4 save.

[TheRealness]

The sun is brighter, the weather warmer, and my smile broader. Good thing I'm wearing baggy pants today, because my chub will not relent.

Yesterday, TSN moved NFL Countdown to TSN2 and started broadcasting Game On, an end to the lockout special slash preview of the season. SO HAPPY.

[The Napkin]

Archer returns Jan 17. Hockey returns Jan 19. Clearly I'm going to be taking Jan 18 off.
Best. Weekend. Ever.

On Saturday night, a female friend of mine from Dallas went home with some guy she had met at the bar. She was considerably drunk.

The next morning she awoke to him texting and talking on the phone quite excitedly. She asked him what was going on, and what was so important.

He told her that the NHL lockout was over. Confused, she asked him why that mattered so much to him. His answer?

He was an NHL player.

The player? Derek Roy.

(This girl is probably a 6, maybe a 7 if you like girls who are borderline midgets. I was so disheartened that he couldn't do better. Apparently some of the other players gave her a slow clap when he walked her through the hotel lobby the next morning).

I totally forgot that Steve Ott got traded into the division.

Borderline midget eh? Roy's always tryin' to slip one in the short side.

Sounds like a real lockoutbuster. Roy's going to spend the rest of his life telling the story of how he saved hockey.

Did he forget to pay you?

[FL4WL3SS]

He paid me in rupees

Goodbye fucking shit school, it's fantasy time!

I totally forgot that Steve Ott got traded into the division.

My thoughts exactly. I want to use him to bludgeon Lindy Ruff.

[Spaulding Smails]

The Sabres games are going to be utter bloodbaths with Ott and Kaleta running around.

[kenneycb]

Don't forget John "Laraque" Scott.

[AMcGhie]

Just caught the eye of a guy wearing a Ference jersey in Davis and high fived him and kept walking. Its good to have hockey back.

I am so fucking jacked for how this schedule is going to work out. Old-school perfection; I hope it sticks.

[goyangfc]

To go or not to go to the office? That is the question.

What if that rest stop has no wifi?

Johnny Treebark to plant 50 trees for each of Seguin's goals this year.

Tyler Seguin: Messy kid

"The parquet floor was littered with coins worth 220 francs [$238]," Blick reported.

Coca-cola bottles, garbage and dirty linen lay scattered across the floor, while rotten bananas were left on a table, the newspaper said.

The bathroom was a shambles and the cleaning company spent a full day tidying the apartment.

In December, when Seguin returned to America, the staff were met with a similar stiff challenge.

Blick said the hockey player was "not versed in appliances" and as a result tried to wash his clothes in the dryer.

"He also did not know how to operate the dishwasher . . . when he ran out of clean plates, glasses and cutlery, he bought plastic tableware."

Marc Lüpold, the managing director of the cleaning company, was diplomatic about the revelations.

"You could tell it was the first time a young, single man had an apartment," Lüpold told Blick.

[JimBoSox9]

...read the description of every male college apartment, ever.

Blick said the hockey player was "not versed in appliances" and as a result tried to wash his clothes in the dryer.

Sounds like the stories about Peyton Manning as a sort of football autistic - apparently, he had to call his mom because he was unable to figure out how to use a can opener.

Doc and Pierre are calling the Harvard/BU game on NBCSSN tonight, if anyone's looking for a hockey fix.

NBCSN is running NHL commercials for the new season. Nice to see.

[PedroSpecialK]

Nearly shat myself at NESN's "Back in Black" ad last night.

Needless to say, I am pumped.

[SawxSince67]

Doc and Pierre are calling the Harvard/BU game on NBCSSN tonight, if anyone's looking for a hockey fix.

Thanks for the heads up, Harvard rallies from 5-2 deficit to win in OT. Fun game; Doc got excited and I got a Teddy Donato fix.

[AMcGhie]

BOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
In all seriousness, BU played like absolute shit after they scored their 5th. They deserved to lose. The past 3 years, Jack Parker has just flat lost his team over the break. Looks like that trend may continue this year.

I just put that picture on Facebook and tagged my mother-in-law as the Habs baby. Let's just say it led to hilarity.

For all you local beer leaguers: apparently some asshats have been looting locker rooms during games in Walpole and Marlboro.

[The Four Peters]

Always lock the rooms, that's rule #1. Rule #2 is to play in rinks without a crowd so anyone hanging around is suspicious. And naturally rule #3 is just don't carry cash.

Hell they can take the cash, just don't take the beers.

[kenneycb]

Few things suck more than being the only defenseman on a men's league team that doesn't play a hint of positional hockey.

[The Four Peters]

Wait...you are the only defenseman who doesn't play a hint of positional hockey? Or your team doesn't play positional hockey?

[kenneycb]

The team. They just follow the puck. I'm a goddamn poke checking machine on the blue line. The rest of the fuckers need to relearn that hockey isn't just skating the puck up the ice.

[The Four Peters]

You need to come play for a real men's league team.

[TheShynessClinic]

What nights/rinks/divisions are you all playing in? I wonder sometimes if I should bad for all the slew foots I've throwing, but then I imagine it's one of you guys and I sleep a bit better.
