eak, yeah, i remember that. i'm not surprised. cechmanek sucks, i hate him, and they just sucked in general during playoffs that year. they were much better in 2000 with boucher, but i guess i need to stop dwelling on that... :|

Don't worry about it. I dwell on things all the time. I'm still dwelling on the No Goal crap from 99 and the way we got screwed over 3 times in one game against Washington in 98 and how LeClair scored through the side of the net in 2000....blah, I don't know why I like hockey. It just causes stress.

I miss hockey. Yeah, it's okay to watch baseball but when you're team's always losing you need to see your favorite sport. (The Indians suck!!!)

So I'll just sing a little song. It goes like this:

"Most other sports are fucked,
So bring back the puck.
We'll bury this field,
And cover it with ice."

ah yes...hockey songs...this one always brings a tear to my eyes :lol:

Now ever since I was young it's been my dream
That I might drive a Zamboni machine
I'd get the ice just as slick as could be
And all the kids would look up to me
I want to drive the Zamboni ... hey
I want to drive the Zamboni ... Yes I do!

Ya know what? It hurts when your favorite player gets traded but my god, it stings pretty bad when after he gets traded, he completely bad-mouths your team and his previous team.

are you talking about Hasek?

Kozlov. I just found an article today where he basically says that Atlanta has a ton more potential and talent than Buffalo ever will.

Yeah...that always sux. He'll be felling pretty silly if the Sabres get to the playoffs this season and the Thrashers don't....eh...who know.

Hull was like that after going to the Stars...punk...

Here's my role model

Man, they should have let Walt and Odeline go! I heard that Walt spouted off about the 'Yotes after he left. I guess it's all about how and why the player leaves. I'm just glad he plays for the Blues now :nod:

Hey Stloki, you can call the Red Wings stupid now, but when they win the Stanley Cup and St. Louis is gone in the first round, I will smile and think of this day when I predicted the future, or something. :mrgreen:

Third round damn you Third round!!! :freak:

What kind of Blues fan would I be if I didn't razz the Wings

I'm a huge Stars fan... have been since they were the North Stars back in Minnisota...
Sorry Arlie but Hulls goal was a goal... he had control of the puck in the crease and scored, plain and simple... I've played hockey for the last 15 years and in my books that was a goal, and even if it was a Buffalo player who would have scored on Belfour in the same manner it still would have been a goal in my opinion

A smart one who knows how bad your team really is. :mrgreen:

I am not even a Wings fan either....

Die hard fan I am

4 years and counting!

It was NOT!! I was there, I saw the foot in the crease. He was standing to the left side of the crease, the puck squirted free from Hasek's pads, he gained control of it, and shot it in. His foot never left the crease. Hence, no fucking goal.

Guh, I hate arguing about this, but his foot never left the crease. Even when he didn't have the puck, his foot was in it. If it was any other game, any other team as a matter of fact, the play would have been looked over. It just always happens to Buffalo. Always. Scoring through the side of the net, skates in the creases, it just never stops. I know everyone is sick of Buffalo's bitching but just take a minute and think about it. You're a die-hard fan, Game 6, Stanley Cup Finals, 3rd OT, the other team scores, and the goal is disputable. And then the NHL Commissioner literally turns his back on the coach when he asks for an explanation. It makes me want to cry.

Oh, and then, the NHL openly comes out and says it should have been reviewed and gives the Sabres, and its fans a fucking apology. An APOLOGY!!! I hate sports.

I've been a Wings fan since I was introduced to hockey 5 1/2 - 6 years ago.

Amen to that. (Joseph in the Toronto --> Detroit trade)
