Hockey News is god awful. I saw Columbus ahead of everyone but the Pens in their predictions for this year for the Metro, and stopped there. Just awful.

Yea the Metro should basicall be the same. Rangers could pass Pens since they struggled for half a season and still finished pretty high in the standings. If they play consistent for 82 game Rangers win the Metro. Flyers will take 3rd again and Columbus the WildCard. Possibility is there that they swap

The clip where Hextall is pummeling a Caps player is Rob Pearson.

thanks! do you know what set this brou-ha-ha off?
- hammarby31


From what I remember, Pearson got caught up with Zettler, maybe even attacked him and as he was being escorted off he exchanged words with Hextall. I think Hextall probably said something smart and set Pearson off because Pearson made the first move toward Hextall. Hextall then grabbed his jersey and got two good ones on him before the cavalry came.

I mean I'll watch the regular season games and hope they win but there's no way I'm gonna be a diehard. Those days are over.

EDIT: Like when they lost in the playoffs last year- I watched the game and rooted for them relatively hard, but I wasn't breaking things when they lost.

I'm somewhere in between the casual/fair weather fan and the diehard

Yup. I'll still be "up to date" with the Eagles knowledge and pay attention to the team but like I said- I won't break things over them.

O god that would be one of the best things ever. They could put up 80 against the Cowboys. Their defense is going to be historically bad this year and I love it.
