  • Re: NHL 2016.1 -- Anyone have a Laine on a new Auston?

    That thread was great.

    Basically a culmination of people angry that others had the courage to stand up and believe they're worth more than they're currently being treated.

    Reminds me of the people on Facebook who complain "Fast food workers shouldn't get 15/hr, I don't even make that much!" Well then, fight for a higher wage at your work, accept the fact that you're willing to value yourself less than others and work for less, or just start working fast food if it's that easy and pays better.

    The best part was the guy who was excited USAH were looking for scabs and that "everyone college player who is asked would love to play", and then no one told them yes.

      Huh. Guess the sentiment in Grand Forks is "Fu** the women, and not in the fun way."

        That's a huge bummer. You'd think that a school so synonymous with hockey would find a way to keep the women's program going, but I guess if the money's not there, it's not there (that's an entirely different problem, but we probably shouldn't get into that).

                  The only positive thing you can say about NHL owners is they are smarter than NFL owners, but that's like saying Texas Republicans are smarter than Oklahoma Republicans.

                    Oh they'll go. When the sponsors (and I think a few Korean companies are big sponsors) tell Gary that the checks will stop or be a lot smaller if the NHL stays home, they NHL will cave.

                    Plus if they stay home, the league will get no national TV exposure on both sides of the border (and overseas) for the 3 weekends of the Olympics.

                      I'm pretty sure the IOC is offering the same deal as last time, just this time the NHL wants more for insurance or something.

                        The IOC won't cover any insurance this time. That's the big stink.

                          The IIHF is picking it up. The NHL want primary sponsorship placement from the IOC. They also want replay and media distribution rights.

                          I think NBC would object to hockey video on non NBC web sites.

                            The Wild won. Holy crap on a cranberry. They haven't lost in regulation for three games!

                              I have to make one revision to the playoffs in my NHL32 scenario. This is due to greed.

                              Round 1. 3 at 2 one game. Winner plays #1. Call it First 8 or Wild Card or Crash and Burn.

                                A joke circulating on social media:

                                The World Wide Web was made available to the public in 1991. This is the first time we're using it to discuss the Red Wings missing the playoffs.
