    Remember me?

    CMT it's been a while, hey? I appreciate you stopping by at my forum when you did. Unfortunately I couldn't do the same at the time, but that should change for now. I had no idea you went all the way with the forum! Domain, hosting and everything. It's good to see, though. It seems the...

    Linus Omark

    Recently, in a shootout victory against the Tampa Bay Lightning, Linus Omark of the Edmonton Oilers picked up the puck at centre to take his shot, and did a spin move. He went in to fake a slap shot, and ten score on the actual shot. The issue here however, is the spin move. He wasn't anywhere...

    Scotiabank Saddeldome (my story)

    Scotiabank Saddeldome Matthew was standing eagerly on the bench. He was on his toes, and leaning over, his head parallel with the ice. A very pleasing aroma wafted through his nostrils, and he soon realized that it was the beautiful smell of Zamboni gasoline. But wait. He couldn’t let himself...

    NHL regular season.

    So tonight marks the start of the 2010-2011 NHL hockey season. Tonight, I'm going to the Flames-Oilers game. I'm hoping that the Flames will win! So, who will you be going for? Predictions? I, obviously am going to be going for the Flames. However, I think that the cup winner will be the San...

    Rangers-Islanders trade

    http://tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=322640]TSN Article[/url] I don't understand why the Islanders did this. Trade a former 3rd round pick, yet to play a NHL game, and has 29 pts in 50 games (thats ok for a defenceman) for a 6th round pick. I just don't see how that will help them. They shouldn't be...

    Jared Staal inks 3-year deal with Hurricanes

    http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=321533]ARTICLE[/url] He's the younger brother of the Staal's (Eric in Carolina, Jordan in Pittsburgh, and Marc in New York on the Rangers). Based on his stats and draft position (2nd round, 49th overall) I don't think he's gonna be as good as older brother -and...

    Tyler Seguin ranked 1st, Hall 2nd, Fowler 3rd

    In the latest draft rankings, Tyler Seguin has found himself sitting 1st overall. With 48 goals in 63 games, that might not be that surprising to some people. Taylor Hall (40 goals in 57 games) is ranked 2nd, while Seguins teamate, defenceman Cam Fowler is still 3rd. In my opinion, both Hall...

    Jordan Eberle

    Im sure every hockey fan (and every Canadian) knows his name. 2 years ago, in the game against Russia at the World Juniors, Canada was down by one goal in a game that decided who goes to the gold medal game. 5 seconds left in the 3rd, Jordan Eberle gets the puck, and ties it up. He then scores...
