Draper AND Rafalski now out tonight in Detroit.

[Bushay]

The Anaheim money should be rollin in with that news. I think it's a suckers bet.

They'll miss Rafalski. Short team they'll be fine without him. Big Ericsson will make you never even miss him.

Bushay, your NHL posts have been spot on all season.
Keep up the great work.


:toast:

 

[Bushay]

I dont know about ALL season, but thanks. I do have my moments.

So you're over your temptation to bet Anaheim?

I guess they won't miss Draper:

"Draper's plus-minus rating was a team-worst and career-low minus-13 this season for the defending Stanley Cup champions."

Holmstrom wears a goalie jock:


"Holmstrom says he puts extra protection where he gets hit a lot.

Where?

"I can't tell you," he said, seriously. "Why should I tell." "

Drapers the best faceoff man in the game. That's where they'll miss him. But he never suited up for the Columbus series either.

+- is a useless stat. It's not a fair gauge of anything.

LOL!

I was insinuating the Anaheim backers were in trouble. I'm from Detroit. Why would i back Anaheim at this point in time?

Wings will win this series. Save your money for a rainy day.

I have lived in Vancouver all my life and never heard anyone use that term, despite how completely accurately it is.

Apparently the term is not so popular is it used to be:

Five years ago i returned to the city of my birth after over a decade
in the East and was surprised to see so many Asians everywhere.

"Due to the large ethnic Chinese presence in Vancouver—especially represented by multi-generation Chinese Canadians and first-generation immigrants from Hong Kong, the city has been referred to as "Hongcouver" (a term considered derogatory by some)<SUP class=reference id=cite_ref-1>[2]</SUP>."
