Us Winnipegers like a good garage sale, wedding "social" and fifty fifty draws.

I remember sitting at Excell Energy with a bunch of drunk Winnipegers at a Wild-Jets tilt. They were yelling out how pathetic the 50/50 total was (with some expletives) - they were removed from the arena!

The Dallas Stars injury woes continue, with Jason Spezza dealing with something, now. This is incredible. Six forwards and a few defensemen sprinkled in. Ugh.

Getting Huddler and Hemsky back tonight, I think.

Maybe the Jets will half a chance then......
[Reply]

Ha! Yeah, our fifty fifties are good when the get to around 10k. Probably cuz our tickets are so overpriced.
[Reply]

So the 50/50 for y'all are automatic and come off part of the ticket price? Here you have to buy (at baseball games in SD anyway) 50/50 tickets that they print out like a lottery ticket in the stands, you get like 3 draws for 5 bucks or something and half the money goes to charity and half to the winner.
[Reply]

It's the same here. I was just being a smart ass about our crappy ticket prices.
[Reply]

:-)

lol
[Reply]

Nope - pretty much everyone buys tickets for the 50-50. 10 for $20....

Subban's little brother is not the answer. It seem odd Rask has been out of the net a lot lately, well you know not playing games, when he is in the game he's out of the net a lot as well :-)
[Reply]

In a game a few nights ago, Rask looked really, really uncomfortable every time he had to slide to the left. I think he's hurting a lot more than the B's are letting on.
Subban's definitely not the answer. As weak as the D has been, if they have persistent problems in the net then they're up the creek.

They can have Jonathan Bernier......

Nice come from behind win for the Flyers last night. I was switching back and forth between it and the World Series. It was 3-1 after the 14:00 break, switched over to baseball. Came back minutes later and they were reviewing the game-tying goal. :-)
[Reply]

Caught the last 5 minutes as well, Joel, and that was apparently all I needed to catch. :-)
[Reply]

Maybe the Vikings will go 5-11 at this rate. Sheesh.
[Reply]

I bet even the Vikings could score on Rask :-)
[Reply]

Oops, wrong thread! :-)

1st place Blackhawks win their 6th in a row.

Hawks - Oilers Western Conference Final? :-)
[Reply]

Oilers are making it fun to watch hockey again .

Cautiously optimistic ... it would be nice to make the playoffs ... western conference final ??? Not likely .

Happy to see some d-fence playing competently ... Klef/larsson make me happy and nurse is growing up into a facsimile of pronger ( he has learned how to start skating it out in order to open up passing lanes ) .

Lucic thinks he is a playa now ... pffft ... got demoted to the 3rd line for thinking he should play instead of beating the sh!t out of kadre .

Overall ... like I said ... it is fun to watch hockey again .

I watch the Oilers whenever they are on and the Hawks aren't, Derrek, love watching McDavid , Nurse, Eberle and the rest of the kids.

Artem Anisimov leads the NHL in scoring. Wow. That is all.
[Reply]

Artemi Panarin with the Gordie Howe Hat Trick tonght.

Assists on Hossa's goal. beats the living crap out of Scottie Upshall, and then beats Jake Allen for toe OT GWG. Nice win for the first place Blackhawks.
