Forsberg knew how to piss off Shanny

Forsberg knew how to piss off alot of players. Konstantinov used to drive Forsberg crazy. I miss the Wings-Avs blood feud.

Radulov broke his contract with the Predators to go back to Russia for four years.


He was suspended by the Predators in the middle of the 2nd round of the 2012 playoffs because he was found at a bar at 5 in the morning the night before a game.

- BINGO!


We all know that. He always showed up in the important games though.

I look forward to the day when Matthews' and Keefe's past behaviour are absolved in your eyes because they show up in important games

the stars are getting great goaltending.

that's it.

That's literally it. They're an okay team getting some puck luck with a goalie standing on his head.

- BINGO!


Nah they are in the cup finals. That means they are infallible.

I never hated a team as much as I hated those AVS teams. Not even the Leafs.
But it sure was great hockey!

Isles weren't even in a playoff spot, how did Lou get manager of the year?
- bobbyisno1


Voting was done after the 2nd round of the playoffs. People apparently forgot that the Isles sucked almost all year long.

Ya...Seguin used to have this reputation.

It's almost as if young players need time to mature before having significant success.

Almost like how most of us average Joe's need to as well. Fascinating.

.....So because Radulov showed up in important games that excuses his off ice stuff, but because Matthews has yet to have postseason success, his off ice stuff still counts?

Is that what you're saying here? That post-season success makes the other stuff not matter any more?

There's so much randomness to sports. There is no winning formula.

You just ice a good team for as many years as possible.

Comprehensive reading isn't your strength.
I said one night out isn't a character issue - and if it were more than one night out, it never affected his play. In other words: going out for drinks doesn't translate to character issues.

Then I proceeded to state that examples of real character issues are the antics of Matthews and keefe

I don’t get why people get so caught up in it.

Even if you build a super team in the cap era, chances are you aren’t winning the cup that year.

Accumulated over 5-6 years? Yeah probably a good chance.

TB is a good example. Almost as good as you can get in a cap era and they’ll probably win it this year.
