Trastion

Today is the 31st...

It's awful what the NHL is doing period.

There was some idiot that kept reporting all the games on youtube. It wasn't the NHL at all just someone who was butthurt about something and he kept reporting all the nhl games. It got to the point that most of the good youtube streamers wouldn't post the links on reddit anymore and you had to pm them to get it. That still didn't help a lot because the guy doing the reporting would still get the links eventually.

RIP Gordie.

Just like their pizza this name is blah.

I just saw this and came here to see if anyone posted it yet. This is so terrible that it is funny.

Can we score more than 0 goals...

The Detroit Red Wings will travel the fewest miles of any team for the upcoming 2015-16 season. http://www.mlive.com/redwings/index.ssf/2015/07/detroit_red_wings_to_travel_th.html#incart_most-commented_news_article Less travel is always good but how hard is travel really on teams now? They get to fly in a private plane that has a lot of perks for them. It is not like the general public flying.

And on the training staff for the Griffins is http://griffinshockey.com/news/features/?article_id=1710 Brad "Dogg" Thompson.

And there is a temporary name change in place for Rockford Michigan (which is just north of GR along US 131). Griffinville. http://www.mlive.com/griffins/index.ssf/2015/05/local_town_changes_name_to_sup.html

Things are starting to look pretty grim. I am hoping for a win but we really need EVERYONE to step up tonight. If they come out flat it is over.

I hope the Wings can win it and move on. But I think they gave Tampa too much wiggle room. I want to see that #4 light up on the top of the site. Go Wings!

Wings 6 - Lightning 1 Abby gets a Hatty. Go Wings!

I saw this posted on another website today. Not sure how old it is. Someone at the game tonight want to try it?

I like Howard as a goalie but I have been watching him since he first joined the Griffins years ago when i was a season ticket holder and his biggest fault has always been that he cannot stop a breakaway or a shootout goal. Those hoping he will work on it and get better, sorry but he has had years to work on it already. We have one of the best goaltending coaches there is and that hasn't helped much either. Granted I also think we need to score more goals in the game itself so we don't go to the shootout and if we do then score more than zero or one goals in the shootout. Ultimately I would like the league to get rid of the skills competition for deciding games anyways. Does anyone even know what the rules are about changing to a goalie that did not play in the main game? I am sure that it is allowed if there is an injury or something but not sure if they can otherwise. It sure would be a way for Babcock to send a message to Jimmy that he needs to improve in that fashion.

I had to look up the song to understand the meaning as I had never heard it before. Makes sense now. I also came across this pic http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pat_Quinn_%28ice_hockey%29#mediaviewer/File:Pat_Quinn_Toronto.JPG on the wiki page for Pat.

I am ok with Nesty going down to play and learn but Weiss will not play in the D and probably not play more than 2 or 3 games in GR. He is a career "I'm hurt, wheres my check" player. He will continue to make a living off watching games from the stands. Pretty sweet gig really.

Are there any "veterans" who are about to retire or who have retired in the last 2 years that we can dump Tatar, Nyquist & Jurco for? That would be the only trade I can see Holland making. He doesn't even try anymore.

I thought this was going to be about http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norm_Maracle.

I just want no more wings to get hurt. Can't we go a game or two without losing someone else?

Leagues lawyers - "A lawsuit? Really judge? They are screwed in the head!" Judge (after the check clears) - "Yup, they are definetly brain damaged. Case dismissed"

I believe we will only see Nyquist for tonight. I think he is within 2 games of having to stay up or pass waivers to go back down. I don't think they want to keep him up yet and I highly doubt he would clear waivers. I may be wrong and hopefully someone with more knowledge on that stuff can chime in. Go Wings!

Video wont play for me. it plays if i copy paste in into browser though so not sure what the problem is.

The stars on the shoulders just look like some ice from a snowjob. Also do we need the Nike checkmark? Isn't that advertising?

They will probably make millions off of all the bandwagon fans that are too stupid to realize that this is not something a real team does.
