Hartford - if you're gonna play an aggressive lineup then you're gonna concede goals. A goalie can only do so much if the rest of his team is neglecting their defensive duties :-p

To be politically correct: "Not that theres anything wrong with that"

So next Game away against Winnipuck!! :joy:

Our Minnesota Team will show Getzlaf and his Guys how hockey has to be played. :-x

Our Offense worked good against Hartford, now our D steps up big and our Goalie will blank them. :thup:

Our Game plan: Don't have a Game Plan, so you can't be blamed for not playing like your Game Plan planned. ;)

I was thinking of taking the North Stars, as their Geek goalie conceded more goals then me. But when I think about I have no idea what a Nordique is. :dunno: :-k

I went with the Whalers because of their real life counterpart. I had family down in CT and I used to love going to see the Whalers when the Bruins were in town. You could get the best seats for short change and there would usually be more Bruins fans than Whalers fans there.

No you went with the Whalers because you know we are the best. It is like we are the 80s Oilers, late 70s Islanders and the 60s and 70s Habs all rolled into one. So jealous. You haters. :-D

Queeeee-beck Nordeeeeeeeks suck

Nordique is a reference to soemone who lives in the north, ususally like an Eskimo. "Of the north"

Thats why thier logo is an igloo with a hockey stick.

Have you ever seen the concept art they have for a new logo for the Nordiques before they moved to Colorado? IIRC, it was something involving a wolf and it looked pretty cool.

It looked disgusting. Wrong colors, wrong picture...and why they wanted to change it anyway? I like old-school.
