neilpeart_gal Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 IF we end up getting a hockey season this year I'd like to get in on a fantasy hockey league. Anyone know of any or should we start our own?

Chasartymac Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 I'll watch for this season, thanks. I know nothing.
neilpeart_gal Posted August 31, 2004 Author Posted August 31, 2004 Its ok, baby. I'll teach ya one day!! D13, Kazz, glad to have you aboard! Maybe I should start the Rush Forum league?
barney_rebel Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 World Cup of Hockey tonight, Canada vs US. We're gonna beat your asses...
neilpeart_gal Posted August 31, 2004 Author Posted August 31, 2004 Hey is it on TV? Ya never know, we have a chance!!!

kazzman Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 Great first period. Canada really has the edge on USA. They've got the better puck movement, more shots, better controll, and way better defense. Seems like Esche is the only thing thats keeping USA in this game.
barney_rebel Posted August 31, 2004 Posted August 31, 2004 Hope Jovo is ok. That'd be a big blow if he was hurt. How about Hull eh? What an ass!
neilpeart_gal Posted September 1, 2004 Author Posted September 1, 2004 What did Bretty do? I missed the rest of the game.

neilpeart_gal Posted September 1, 2004 Author Posted September 1, 2004 Used to be Canadian?? He is a Red Wing, and somehow, I've managed not to hold that against him.

He is a Red Wing, and somehow, I've managed not to hold that against him. Yeah he is an ex-pat. He was born in Belleville, Ontario, but yet he skates with Team USA. But it's partly Canadian Hockey's fault. We cut him from the team because he wasn't good enough.
neilpeart_gal Posted September 1, 2004 Author Posted September 1, 2004 Holy crikey, I didn't know that! Thanks for the education! Wasn't good enough.

Even Steve Yzermann was cut from that team (1987), in favour of Dale Hawerchuck! Another traitor: Adam Deadmarsh - born in Trail, BC BTW, I didn't know you were so into hockey - I used to crash hockey boards for years before Rush ones! http://www.1972summitseries.com (I speak to this guy on occassion, and he mentions me on his credits!)
neilpeart_gal Posted September 1, 2004 Author Posted September 1, 2004 Heck yeah, I'm a Predators season ticket holder!!! My Toronto pics were half Hockey Hall of Fame, half Rushcon. I wish I knew more about the history of the game, which players came from where and such. I'm still a noob in that arena.

Season tickets!!! OMG you sure you want to marry Chas?!?! That is worth more than gold in these parts!!! Getting Rush front row seats is easier than getting Leaf tickets. We live and breathe hockey. If you listen to The Tragically Hip, you'll get a bit of history in a couple of songs. BTW - I'm a wicked goaltender , too bad I can't skate worth a crap. EDITED for TERRIBLE grammar.
