I kid, I kid. I haven't watched rasslin' in years, but I used to love it back in the day. Bret Hart was my guy back then. The best there is, the best there was and the best there ever will be.


Although I was never a huge fan of his, it's pretty amazing that the Undertaker has had such a lengthy, uninterrupted career in the WWE.

Even though I also haven't watched rasslin' in many many years, The Undertaker was always my favourite.

This isn't a reaction to losing 3 of our last 5, just to throw that out there at the jump. If you look at my post over the past week, you won't see me down on this team once (except one post of extreme sarcasm jabbing at those that were acting like the sky was falling), but I really don't think this team can take on Philly in the playoffs.

It just doesn't seem like we're tough enough anymore and Philly has OWNED these past two seasons, going 7-3.

Going into the season I was worried about losing Rupp and Talbot and I think it's going to really show how valuable they are come the "2nd season".

We've basically turned into the 08-09 Capitals, IMO. We do have Flower, but he's consistently let in 3+ goals this season. We might score a lot, but we also let in a lot. Come playoff time, games are going to get tighter and I'm not so sure we've shown that we can win 1-0, 2-1 games this year. Thats going to be a problem come playoffs. Hopefully, Bryz comes back rusty from his current injury, because the only thing worse than not winning the Cup is being eliminated by the Flyers.

Beating the Blues 3-2. Phoenix 2-1, Florida 2-1, 2-1 Washington. All great defensive teams and that proves it. Also the Regular season doesn't matter in the playoffs. ex. Canucks, just because you win the trophy or conference doesn't mean they hand you the cup. The cup isn't handed out in March, April, May. It's handed out in June.

Edit: I do agree we need more tough players but Talbot isn't that tough, but Asham, Adams, Vitale will do, eh? Stick with what you got.

Vitale is way more physical than Talbot if you ask me. I agree on Rupp though.

And fyi, people that watch wrestling know its fake, so telling them it is when they talk about it isn't like you're crushing their whole world with reality.

It's just entertaining.

Neither do I. But I still love it. I don't watch it consistently but when I do it never fails to entertain me. Yes, I'll be attending a WrestleMania party tomorrow.

I love that guy (Was my favorite MMA fighter for about 5 years), and he's one of the few people who actually scare the **** out of me.

As long as the thread's trending in a wrestling direction, going to throw in something from another black-and-gold (or black-and-yellow) team.

He was a college wrestler.

And probably still a massive a-hole.

No. He was an All American and 2000 National Champion wrestler at Minnesota.

Amen man. I wish I could watch Wrestlemania tomorrow. It will be the first one I've missed in almost ten years.

I'm pumped for the game then Wrestlemania. I just hope I don't have trouble with feeds. I hate that & don't have the money to spend on it. Never thought I would say this but I wish I was friends with Mark Madden since he is having a party for it.
