Orange ball?
or those incredibly painful hard black pucks?
- Purple Eagle

I remember using the black street pucks and lifting a wrister that hit some kid right on the cheek bone. Poor bastard was cut and started spraying blood. He kind of lost his composure after that.

Both.


Those orange balls hurt like hell once it got below 30 degrees.

Ever use one of those roller pucks that had wheels fanned out in every direction? I got in front of a wrist shot and one of those "bit" me. It hit the back of my knee and hung there like it was velcro. That would have been bad enough, but the guy who shot it batted at it and ripped it (and some of me) off the back of my leg. Good times.

Hell yeah-
Especially against open skin!
I remember going home looking like I had chicken pox-

I don't think there is a guy I grew up with that doesn't have a scar or lost a tooth to those old hard plastic pucks.
Funny...don't see them around anymore-

Cups+street hockey were never a good combo.
Take a shot to the nads and you were done for the morning.

Miss those days-

It is George Washington's birthday. I've got some booze, smokes, dope and pepperoni. We're partying tonight.

Yahoo Sports reporting:

Sabres are trying to resign Goose!

WTF

Is it a holiday in Buffalo?
- imsorry66

It is Pegula Day, where we celebrate the one year anniversary of the arrival of the billionaire who spends lots of money and who is easily conned by one of the worst GMs in hockey.

It is mostly a sad holiday right now.

Sabres and Kings talking trade!

that is the first time i have seen Pomminville mentioned in treade rumors

Someone mentioned Chris Butler's injury. 1:26 mark to see the play where he eats the net. I think he landed on his own skate blade.

When comparing guys of different generations you need to look at how they dominated or played against thier peers.

Orr dominated the league more so than any other player in history (including Gretz IMO), Lindstroms is great but doesnt dominated the league.

Wyane Gretzky still have more assists than anybody has points, how is that not pure domination?
