There's things to like about the dude's game. But nothing that justifies a top pairing or that contract.

Having no hope that he'd be traded... there's also some hope in the way he played for a bit during his return. But nothing in the post season.

i agree....you should see a doctor

and......just to help you understand what im saying....I never said he was loved by all. The point is there were several defenders of this player....not just 1 or 2 nubs that just started posting, it was Mods and other established posters......there were a handful of us that have been saying he isnt very good since before +50

so not sure what your problem is but it sounds like you know you have one and will be seeking help. Good luck

I'm not recalling more than a few Schultz defenders on here. Do you have a link to the thread you mentioned?

On local radio 106.7 reporter @SkyKerstein talking tough. He quoted all the horrid Wideman and Sarge stats. It appears he has access to George. Adding him to the twitter.

Obviously this exchange is a mismatch in more ways than one, so I'm just going to leave it here.

Is that Sjogren sitting next to Orlov?

He looks an awful lot like Sami Lepisto.

No wonder he and McPhee had that falling out.

Posted this on the main board thread (didn't know where I was), but wanted to share here:

30 years ago today, Dale Hunter's Quebec Nordiques (after losing game 6 at home in overtime) go into Boston Garden and beat the Bruins 2-1 in Game 7 to advance to the conference finals against the Islanders. The end of the game is notorious, because Terry O'Reilly (apparently incensed over something Dale did) ends up trying to punch referee Andy Van Hellemond. The last moments of the game - when O'Reilly took a swing at Van Hellemond are shown below.

So bring it on -- April 25 is clearly cursed for the Bruins and blessed for Dale and his boys.

I will admit I was one of the few to talk up the progress of Sarge after he got back from his 1 month of scratches. Hitting, skating, assertive... I was stunned.

Not surprisingly I suppose, he went back to his old ways of playing passive. Really, what 6'6" DD man has made it through a playoff series without a hit. I now think he was hitting on accident. Forced to skate in our new man scheme, its was inevitable he had collisions.

JJ got much of the credit but we may need to rethink that.

Has Semin ever gone to an optional skate in his life?

So... you're faulting JJ and nothing on Dale?

Hmm...to me....55 has always had VERY few defenders around here. That's not to say from time to time he's played well and people have commented positively, but he's gets as bashed as anyone on the Caps roster around here. I would say there are less that 5 regular defenders of 55.

Ah, more *****ing about missing optional skates.



Take note of what Lidstrom says about optional skates (that Larry Murphy told him) @ 3:25.

Stephen Walkom (#24) and Eric Furlatt (#27) are the Ref's tonight. Is that good or bad?

I want him on the ice practicing the toe drag wrist shots for an hour. The ****er needs to learn to shoot more.

Walkom did both Game 7 of the ECF and SCF last year. Minimal penalties. Let them play.

No clue on Furlatt.

Schultz has 373 NHL regular season games under his belt. As 'not a player' how many more NHL games do you see him playing over the rest of his career?

Seems like Bruins fans think it's a good thing...so i'm not sure if we should be worried or not.

Walkom is ****. Remember all those games where the Caps get really really weak hooking calls, and the other guys are crosschecking, hooking tripping and no calls?

That's Walkom for you.

The games speak for themselves especially game 7 vs. Tampa Bay.
