Subject: Chit Chat

If Turco is on his way out, you could do worse than having Harding and Auld fighting for the job. Harding is really a character guy and has managed to step out of Backstrom's shadow this season. He is also well liked in the locker room and has fun with his masks. (his new one honors the equipment fire)

I really don't want to see him go, but he has reached that point of he needs to be given the chance to compete for a starting job. He is also probably the wild's most valuable asset that can be moved. Backstrom isn't going anywhere with his contract.

You completely missed the joke - I was playing the role of a red wings fan.

I would love to have Ott on my team but he plays for one of the two teams I hate the most in hockey by far - so he's a douche until he laces em up somewhere else.

Independently his peers have voted him the co-dirtiest player in the NHL, not me, not the fans. I even threw a wink in there to show you the sarcasm I was piling on.

I apologise. I'm pretty much highly passionate about my team, and ignorant comments piss me off. I missed that you meant it in jest, that's my bad.

I hate the Wings btw... Stars fans pretty much do, but I hate them because for too long you guys were a kick-ass team we could not beat. That has changed over the last 2 seasons, so hey, hopefully the Wings dominance is over. LOL

I'm with you on the Avs... not a fan of them either

Yeah I think as far as utter human waste goes - the wings hold the edge having Bobby Probert on the squad for so long, Ott has a lot more misunderstandings to catch up.

I used to really like watching the Wings Stars series but when we picked up Hull I was hugely disappointed - I always liked to hate him and then when he joined I lost that. I'm also still a bit butthurt over the Ott SO goal - the shootout should have kept going - I am pretty sure the puck crossed inside his glove but there was no proof of it - call on the ice should have stood and let it keep going.

The only team I truly do despise though is the Avalanche - if I were to see Claude Lemieux I would quickly draw a picture of a turtle and hand it to him laughing maniacally.

WOW! Belfour? an angel/non-douche? clearly you forget the crotch slashing incidents he perpetrated on a couple of guys...and a few other things.

beyond that...there have been very few players in Dallas who have been tagged dirty. although, more than a couple have picked up that reputation after leaving Dallas.

I never said an Angel, no angel would make it in the NHL - but I meant Belfour and Modano for respect earned, Eddie earned it in Chi town for me, but kept it and grew it in Dallas.

Yes indeed, but then again Tony O was known for that kind of stuff. Come to think of it, Marty Brodeur has been caught a few times himself. Gordie Howe made a career out of being a dirty player. Bob Probert as mentioned above. Chris Chelios was no angel either.

My point being... it's in every team across every league.

Right - you love your own guys, but everyone Else's are the scum of the earth.

That's generally the way it works, yeah.

I know Predators fans who absolutely adore Jordan Tootoo. Go figure.

who?...oh...yeah....him... (lol)

popaji

I have decided your team is just too strong and i can't play you next tuesday. I think I will cancel that game.

hahaha play me instead I'll cancel the game i have and we can schedule.

works for me. I usually wait until the draws but I figured I'd give myself a couple extra days to find an opponent

Done Should be an overtime game in your barn. As usual, i'll play my backup goalie and rest my key scorers for the game.

.... and still kick my butt.
