week 6 (non Kareem's) games thread

[kyuss]

i needed a thread to complain about Shiv's players playing many more games than mine! Starting with tonight..

this week the Preds are going back losing already.

any other (un)educated guesses for the upcoming matchups?

Non Kareem games...Who cares then?

[Nick]

Scott is likely going to beat me this week, here is the logic:


He's dominant FOW, Hits and BS

The ducks just won a few too many games, including 5 games with very nice goalie #'s... so a bad one is coming.


Healthy Devil's vs J.Staal, K.Okposo, K.Quincy & even C.Cohen out... means I have to choose between Kadri or Wellman


Few players having cold starts + my team is so young that its inconsistent... I sure hope to make this interesting!!!!

Hell if Kareem and I can both win Scott would suddenly have a losing streak. Now, THAT would be a story.

excuses.

[Nick]

those are logical reasons...

The ducks are a slightly above .500 team who just won 7 of 8, to not-expect a return to their norm would be a mistake.
Having 3 good/important players injured makes a difference, and giving credit where credit is due (fow/hits/bs) is hard to argue with.


Now, none of that is saying that I cannot win, it would simply mean some of my kids have good games (which they do every once and a while). Richards had a solid night, but duby was able to toss up a formidable stat line in the final 2min of the third + OT

Who cares? Talking changes nothing. Why not just let the players do what they do?

Jesus Christ .. I need to start ignoring all these threads..

My god, what is with you and trash talk? Your like the anti-kareem...BORING

If you don't like it go to a church or strawberry shortcake tea party.

Personally I didn't know that we were thinking/planning/imagining that we were changing anything. LOL. We definitely are not stoping the players from "do[ing] what they do". But sometimes its neat to see/hear the interesting match-ups each week.

What a strange insult, if anything that just sounds delicious. You know what else is delicious 6 goals on 23 shots vs millers 3 on 39. What is that they say about patience being a virtue?

I don't believe in any God and only a person that wants blind hope does. So I'd rather slit my wrists then listen to a person preach about make-believe shit for two hours like a cult. That's my Church I'll go to.

Trash talking is pointless. Changes nothing and only makes people look retarded when they talk shit and then lose. But hey, do whatever you want.

Halak had a good game tonight.

A little girls tea party sounds delicious to you? I guess I know what you like to do in your spare time, either that or eating out of little girls.

As for point two, fuck you...The numbers will balance themselves out when all is said and done...I hope.

I didn't ask if you believed in god, I could care less if you believed in a wise tree. That said, your argument is ridiculous.

Luck is a mathematical fact, it merely refers to an improbable outcome. Distressing over bad luck is hardly a cult like activity, in fact the two have absolutely nothing to do with one another...Nor do the things we say and the outcome, no one disputed that. It's common sense, trash talk is part of the fun, and mind games.

Your first comment also leads me to believe you are emo or goth.

You told me to go to Church.

What other reason would I go to church? I'm not a priest. I don't touch little boys.

Well those are the only two places I could think of off the top of my head where there is no trash talk.

[Shep]

Trash talking works. I just love seeing the trash talking, then followed by excuses.

Not you, just more in general. It happens a lot

I figure, why trash talk. It doesn't lead to anything productive.

[hong57]

go minny go!!! fans in minny has nv ever in their life been this excited before of getting another high draft pick.. firing the gm in the summer of 09 seems to be the right decision handed down by the mgmt

[hong57]

I make excuses all the time, but only when I feel they are warranted, the situation against Kyle, and goaltending in general are examples.

[Shep]

Definitely the worst goaltending luck.

I'm begininng to think I'm just an terrible judge of goalie talent.
