The Hockey talk Thread Part Deux, 2010/11 edition!!

G $MONEY$ · Oct 1, 2010

After talking it over with Dave (pghbuccos), we decided that we would start a new "Hockey Talk Thread" for the 2010/11 season.

What is "The Hockey Talk Thread" and why do we need it if we have a Hockey Forum?

Consider THTT much like the morning thread on the Baseball boards or the daily thread on the Football boards. It is a thread for us Hockey members to talk about anything Hockey that is on our minds that might not need a separate thread of its own. Usually we have most of our game day talk in this thread. Talk about a player having a big game, or a minor trade or signing or maybe even some hobby news that you want to share.

Really this thread can be used to talk about anything that is on your mind, even stuff that isn't Hockey related but you wanted to share with the other FCB Hockey members.

Here's to a great 2010/11 Hockey season...

Yeah i feel sorry for you Wild fans, other than Marian Gaborik you guys have never really had a great Hockey talent that has played for the Wild. I thought when you guys drafted Benoit Pouliot 4th overall in the Crosby draft that he was gonna turn into a big NHL star, but alas he did not.

Luckily I am not from here originally and could never get myself to cheer for them being a transplanted Winnipegger. They have a long road ahead of them before they make the playoffs.

ahhh your from "Winterpeg"

Do you have a favorite NHL team after the Jets left? Do you follow the Blue Bombers at all still?

Those where some great Flames/Jets games back in the 80's, in the days of Hawerchuk, Steen, Maclean and company.

The 80's treated the Jets well, and to this day I still do not follow a team. I follow players more like Toews and Crosby and Sakic when he was still playing. I get my weekly updates on the Bombers from my parents that live in Pinaewa just outside of Winnipeg. 3 down football rules.

Yeah i know with Toews being from Winnipeg he has a huge following from Winnipegers. Glad to hear you still follow the Bombers. Im a big CFL fan as well (I actually have Stamps season tickets), except i am hardcore Calgary Stampeders fan

What a great fight last night in Edmonton Calgary game. Big Mac and Ivannas in great heavyweight tilt. Best fight of the preseason so far. I know Big Mac is freakin monster, huge props to Ivan for hanging with him. Hope Big Mac is fixture in Edmonton to protect the young guys on roster. He even got a goal.

pghbuccos · Oct 2, 2010

that was definitely the best fight of the preseason.

Earlier tonight Mike Cammalleri basically attacked Isles Top Prospect Nino Niederreiter with a vicious Slash. I just seen the video of it while watching Toronto/Detroit. Once i find video i will post it (or if anyone else has it), it was pretty brutal. They are saying Cammy is probably facing a suspension to start the year.

Edit -heres the video :shock: :shock: :shock:

that is a ton of Blue Marchers in Quebec. good for them and I do hope Quebec City gets a team soon.

Cammalleri apparently lost his mind and definitely needs to be suspended for the slashing the cross check and just for being an ass.

Good for them! I hope they get a team back, and then the Flames can get a new arena with that fat federal $$$!!!

Yeah they estimated that more than 50, 000 fans came out in support of the Nords. Thats quite a bit of people for something that is nothing more than a dream at this time.

But seriously, Quebec City should get their team back, times have changed and with the US/Canadian dollar almost par these days (Compared to $0.50 back in the early 90's) and with the salary cap, there is no doubt the team would succeed. They live and breath Hockey out in Quebec.
