Postman Posted February 8, 2003 Share Posted February 8, 2003 I just thought you guys would like to know that the Avs beat the Wings in Detroit last night. Shut 'em out, too. Patty Roy is playing ok now, too, I guess. Let's see last night's shutout makes three out of the last five. Hmmm, I think that's fairly good, yes?

Kwiks Posted February 9, 2003 Share Posted February 9, 2003 Anybody see the game 2nd game between Colorado and Detroit? One of the best i've seen in a while. I can only imagine what kind of series it would (or will) be in the playoffs. Roy was spectacular. 1000 games and he's still one of the best.

flyscots Posted February 14, 2003 Share Posted February 14, 2003 We're sinking again! Originally posted by Kwiks: Anybody see the game 2nd game between Colorado and Detroit? One of the best i've seen in a while. I can only imagine what kind of series it would (or will) be in the playoffs.I only got to see highlights but both those games looked outstanding. I'm loving Forsberg & Hejduk at the moment. Wodya'll think of the Kovalev deal? Its bad news for the Pens. Who's gonna show up for them next time Lemieux gets hurt? I dunno what the Rangers are thinking. Its DEfense they need. Maybe they are planning to win games 6-5 from now on. I think they need to play .800 hockey to make the playoffs, I cant see it happening. Its a shame Bure's been injured, I wonder how they'd be doing if he wasnt. We got to see Minnesota play against the Devils on Sunday (2-3) then the Flyers on Wed (2-0.) My god that is a well organized team. Jacques Lemaire is doing a fantastic job. He outclassed the Flyers and was unlucky against a very strong NJ team. They could maybe cause a 1st round playoff upset and are definately a team to watch in the future. As for the Flyers...nothing...need LeClair, Gagne & Williams back ASAP. Shut-out in 4 of the last 8 games. Thats appauling. Just like Scotland's national football (soccer) team.

Jeff Klopmeyer Posted February 14, 2003 Share Posted February 14, 2003 My Kings, for no apparent reason, have dragged their asses out of the gutter. Since I was expecting to pretty much lose every game for the remainder of this season, every win feels preety good. Pacific Division Standings: 2/14/03 DALLAS.........33/11/12/1 (79 pts.) ANAHEIM........26/19/7/4 (63 pts.) LOS ANGELES....24/25/4/4 (56 pts.) SAN JOSE.......20/25/6/5 (51 pts.) PHOENIX........19/25/7/4 (49 pts.) We've won five of our last six games. Perhaps I gave up hope a little too early! - Jeff Marketing Communications for MI/Pro Audio My solo music and stuff They Stole My Crayon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwiks Posted February 15, 2003 Share Posted February 15, 2003 The Kovalev trade has gotta be about as big of a waste as the Jagr trade was. The Rangers pretty much bought Kovalev from Pittsburgh, who just seem content in taking money. I think the Pens must really be reconsidering now, especially after Kovalev scored the only goal in a 1-0 victory over the Pens last night.

flyscots Posted February 17, 2003 Share Posted February 17, 2003 Yeah but is the trade really that good a move for the Rangers when its D they need in the long run? Jagr trade is finally paying off big style for the Caps - about time too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Klopmeyer Posted February 19, 2003 Share Posted February 19, 2003 If the playoffs were starting today, my Kings would still be in 9th place in the West, and would sit home until next season. We need to gain some ground NOW and hang on for dear life. 3-4 solid wins in a row (and some well-timed losses for the other Western teams) would be good. - Jeff Marketing Communications for MI/Pro Audio My solo music and stuff They Stole My Crayon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyscots Posted February 19, 2003 Share Posted February 19, 2003 Yeah and if the Playoffs started today the Flyers would be out in the first round AGAIN! At least the major slump started earlier this season and should be over by playoff time. Originally posted by noizboyz Anybody know where the Flyers can pickup a couple of snipers cheap??? Yeah, there's one super sniper lying at home resting - something he should've been doing all summer. John LeClair (LW) -Has missed the last 36 games due to a dislocated right shoulder ...Underwent surgery to repair a torn labrum on Dec. 4...Will be out of action for 10 to 12 weeks.

flyscots Posted February 21, 2003 Share Posted February 21, 2003 Flyers 5 - Kings 0! (sorry Jeff) Flyers finally remember how to score. I didnt realize the Kings were STILL riddled with injuries. Remember I mentioned the Flyers e-mails I get - it had listed injuries for 7 Kings starters. Thats gotta hurt, especially with Allison, how many games has he actually played this year? 3-0 down, Goalie pulled with 11 minutes to go!? I like the ambitiousness and from what I read it nearly worked, if it wasnt for Cechmanek (now 3rd all time in shut-outs as a Flyer) Did you watch the game Jeff? How ma boys looking?

Things arent working for him at Chicago at the moment (healthy scratch yesterday) Maybe a change will do him good and the Flyers could do with his speed. Not exactly a sniper but I hated him when he was with the Leafs - coz he was good! John Scotsman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just come to accept it. We lost to Detrroit last night, but it was a hard-fought 5-4 road loss, so I can accept that. We're playing the Pens right now...as I write, it's the end of the first and we're down 2-1.

flyscots Posted February 26, 2003 Share Posted February 26, 2003 Kings 5 Penguins 3 - well done Ziggy & Smolinski. Jeff I dunno what the run in is like in terms of opposition but i have a suspicion your guys might just make it into the playoffs. Flyers 2 Blackhawks 0 - Berezin played but only had one shot. Knowing BOOby Clarke he's more likely to sign Theo Fleury. Here's a tasty rumour for ya Rob. Jerome Iginla! Flyers would have to cough up big to get him but that would be a great signing! He knows how to score, he's got the speed, he's young and to keep Clarke happy he's big & strong. Who Knows?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Klopmeyer Posted February 26, 2003 Share Posted February 26, 2003 Originally posted by flyscots: Kings 5 Penguins 3 - well done Ziggy & Smolinski.Yes, a nice win. Finally, Smolinski is doing his job again. Jeff I dunno what the run in is like in terms of opposition but i have a suspicion your guys might just make it into the playoffs.Yes, my feeling is that the Kings will squeak into the playoffs, but in 7th or 8th seed at best, meaning we'd be taking on someone like Dallas in the first round. Uh-oh. Jerome Iginla! Flyers would have to cough up big to get him but that would be a great signing! He knows how to score, he's got the speed, he's young and to keep Clarke happy he's big & strong.Flyers would love to get Iginla, but I'm sure that Calgary isn't anxious to let him go...we'll see! - Jeff Marketing Communications for MI/Pro Audio My solo music and stuff They Stole My Crayon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a fun note - from the Flames website: Harvey the Hound wants you to help lay a licking on the Edmonton Oilers on March 11.

rog951 Posted February 26, 2003 Share Posted February 26, 2003 Thanks for inviting me over John! I've been a big Caps fan since the early '80s and my heart has slowly shriveled into a tiny lump of coal. Since the league was restructured, following this team has been, I dunno, "different" somehow. It was so much fun with all the old Patrick Division rivalries. Now we're slugging it out with the Bolts?! Gotta give Tampa their props, though: they're playing well and they're making every game count in the "mighty" SE division! Got a big one tonight agains the bottom-feeding Sabres. They always play well against us... Speaking of snipers, the rumors are flying around DC that Bondra might be traded. At least they were before he finally got a goal Monday. This would make me very sad as he accounts for about half of what little heart we still have on this team. I seriously doubt he'd ever go to Philly though...too much chance of him burning us later on. Besides, Bobby Clarke is probably a little gun shy after having gotten bent over by GMGM last year in the Oates deal! Anyway, let's try to keep this thread alive!!! GO CAPS!!! None more black.

There was almost a full page before I got involved in this one. Ah, maybe its my fault! Maybe I scared 'em off by asking questions & opinons! Totally agree about Tampa. Who would've thought they'd be the last team to loose a game this season. Glad to see it wasnt just a fluke and they've played well most of the year. Get to see your guys tonight Rog. Caps vs Sabres, live in Scotland! A couple of weeks ago I thought Jagr hitting form was bringing the Caps up to their best.

SFOracle Posted February 27, 2003 Share Posted February 27, 2003 Possible "rent a player" trade bait from non-playoff bound teams: Ray Whitney - Columbus Geof Sanderson - Columbus Brian Smolinsky - LA Ziggy Palffy - LA Aaron Miller - LA Dimitry Yushkevish - LA Chris Gratton - Buf Jarome Iginla - Cal Owen Nolan - San Jose Any of these players have the ability to make a difference on a team looking for the right component for a playoff drive. My bet is that my Canucks stand pat. Trevor Linden has rejuvinated his career this season in Vancouver. The knock on the Canucks at the beginning of the season was questionable goaltending and a lack of secondary scoring behind the Naslund, Morrison, Bertuzzi line (particularly after not signing Andrew Cassels). Dan Cloutier has been outstanding this year - but suffered another knee injury this week, and pairing Trevor Linden with the Sedin twins has provided the secondary scoring the Canucks lacked. Currently on a 14 game unbeaten streak, and within 1 point of conference leading Dallas, I don't think anyone wants to see them in the first round of the playoffs. Colorado has come back from the dead along with Patrick Roy. The Avalanche are on a bit of a tear of their own, with Vancouver and NYI representing their only 2 losses in the last 17 games (with only 2 ties). But 8 points is a lot to overcome with 20 games remaining. If Vancouver goes .500 down the stretch, Colorado has to win 14 of 20 to win the division (with no games remaining against the Canucks). Our country is not the only thing to which we owe our allegiance. It is also owed to justice and to humanity. Patriotism consists not in waving the flag, but in striving that our country shall be righteous as well as strong: James Bryce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Klopmeyer Posted February 27, 2003 Share Posted February 27, 2003 Originally posted by SFOracle: Possible "rent a player" trade bait from non-playoff bound teamsWHOA! Hold your horses there, cowboy. The Kings are in 9th place in the West, and only five points out of 8th for a playoff spot. We play Edmonton a couple of times yet this year and will likely beat them...we are not out of playoff contention entirely by any means. And keep your grubby paws off Palffy and Miller...though, maybe we can talk about Smolinski. Vancouver looks frighteningly good right now. - Jeff Marketing Communications for MI/Pro Audio My solo music and stuff They Stole My Crayon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
