Look at the guy, hes never smiled in his entire life I am pretty sure. Apparently he is a hoot outside the role he plays in front of the media cameras. Dry humour but humour nonetheless. We get his weekly show here from Boston on the Sat. dish. He throws zingers in all the time if you listen carefully. Watch his biography that was made by the NFL network. Actually your are right, he isn't funny in the least. He is an alien as is Elvis and Lennon. 2-1 Vegas by the time I edited this. 1-zip Vegas 15:04 in the 2nd. Edited May 17, 2018 by Old Ironmaker
LostAnotherOne Posted May 18, 2018 Report Posted May 18, 2018 Maybe the reason why the caps suck at home this year is cause they have to have to worst anthem singers of all time. Brutal lol

LostAnotherOne Posted May 21, 2018 Report Posted May 21, 2018 Who would of thought Vegas was going to be in the finals. Was hoping for a Winnipeg vs Washington in the finals but looks like the opposite.

When vegas wins it all, seriously we have to ask ourselves, is this the biggest rigged event in sports history? I think its actually worse than the NBA putting Lebron in the finals every year.
fish_fishburn Posted May 22, 2018 Report Posted May 22, 2018 Like I said before the NHL is fixed so is the NBA and NFL. Follow the money baby.
DRIFTER_016 Posted May 22, 2018 Author Report Posted May 22, 2018 I guess Mark Hunter wanted to be GM.

That sucks, I'm sure he'll end up somewhere over the summer in a GM position... wouldn't surprise me to see Edmonton, Vancouver or Montreal take him lol Edited May 22, 2018 by leaf4

How can the NHL rig this? The team literally just clicked... It was a total shot in the dark with a bunch of these guys (some obviously not) but the way the team has gelled, from being a bunch of castoffs from other teams is a complete fluke... No one could have seen this coming
chris.brock Posted May 22, 2018 Report Posted May 22, 2018 (edited) The whole Vegas team works hard and are relentless on the forecheck and backcheck. It's like they are pissed they weren't protected by their previous teams and now have something to prove. Edited May 22, 2018 by chris.brock

When i used to play road hockey and nobody picked me i would get so pissed that next time i got picked i would swing that stick like a lumberjack.

I played goalie for road hockey. Road is the key here. I sucked playing tender on ice. Thats why I played D. LOL Edited May 23, 2018 by misfish
chris.brock Posted May 23, 2018 Report Posted May 23, 2018 Analysts have been saying the Vegas wheels are going to fall off since mid October. I think they are going to win the whole deal. They disposed of the Jets in 5. It would be a pretty historic cup win. I am a little bitter because the Leafs have been trying to build a contender for years, this team just enters the league and wins.
fish_fishburn Posted May 23, 2018 Report Posted May 23, 2018 It only makes sense. A 500 million entry fee and a cup for that in the first year. Thats business.

Me too...but I'm becoming even more bitter I didn't through down $100 on Vegas to win. lol
AKRISONER Posted May 23, 2018 Report Posted May 23, 2018 meh, the league handed them too much...put it this way...there is no way in hell you should be able to get fleury as your goalie free of charge. I dont care that hes playing backup on a team with two really good goalies...A lot of NHL teams try to have two good goalies these days in case one gets hurt...or you have a young stud goaltender on the come up like pittsburgh did, the fact that vegas gets to snipe fleury from them is a tad ridiculous.
BillM Posted May 23, 2018 Report Posted May 23, 2018 Vegas definitely isn't your typical expansion team, lol. Big game tonight!
Old Ironmaker Posted May 23, 2018 Report Posted May 23, 2018 I will be rootin' for Vegas no matter who they get to beat. Can someone explain to me what a Golden Knight's connection is to Nevada? Nevada is a silver mining state not gold. I bet not once a Knight of any realm ever set foot in Vegas, unless they played one in the movies. Maybe Sir Elton John or Sir Paul McCartney.
BillM Posted May 23, 2018 Report Posted May 23, 2018 Nevada is the biggest gold producing state in the US. The 'Knight' is homage to the Black Knights of the United States Military Academy. Wikipedia is your friend https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vegas_Golden_Knights#Team_name

I always thought M A Fleury was a mediocre goalie at best and often sucked. Brian Burke said the same thing on Leafs Lunch today. Fleury sure hasn't sucked this season. The Pens have a lot of heavy hitters on the payroll and something had to give.
LostAnotherOne Posted May 24, 2018 Report Posted May 24, 2018 Cant remember being this excited for the finals. Im wanna see Ovi lift the cup. Nobody deserves it more then him. Caps in six boys.
