I actually completely agree with Chedda. I love watching the Skills comp and the game, I find them quite enjoyable to watch. Wish they had mic'ed Timmy up again though, that's one mother fucking funny Goaltender the Bruins have. Not mentioning, its a nice way to see the game and the players in a different light.
PS. Those talking about Crosby, if it annoys you this much, IGNORE IT. We can't change how the media act's if we keep reacting to the media. Side note, for those who think a concussion is an easy thing to get over, its not. There's a reason guys like Pat Lafontaine and other's had to quit the game early or had greatly diminished career's, because they didn't recover properly from a brain injury. That's what it is, if you think you can recover quickly from one, by all means, go mess up your own life doing that. If your just annoyed at the media coverage, get annoyed at the media, not the player. Player's for the most part, even Crosby, don't want media attention from it, they just want to recover and play. That's it. The media conference's, the circus around it, that's his clubs fault + the media's, not his.
Player who is surprising? Lupul. Not even a question about it.

did jame duthie just say hawks and nucks was the best rivalry in hockey?
No troll. I don't care if Crosby is playing or not. But it's the people having hernia's over the media coverage that is starting to annoy me.
And I think it was Rennauld's post cause he was getting angry about it the most.
And I did read the article, would explain why its taken Crosby SOOOO long. With the way the human nervous system is set up, his neck would be unable to support his body normally and pinching certain nerves would more then likely cause concussion like symptoms.
4-1 Leafs. Fuck yea.

@Greeney: My problem with Grabs is that he can be a very streaky player. Sure, he has 18 goals in 50 games, but he has had his best production the last month and a half or so. I think though that he has panned out much better then people anticipated when we got him from Montreal. People hated him because he was selfish the first two years, but playing with Kulie and MacArthur has really rounded him into a good two way player under Wilson. He has shown some exceptional defensive ability at times while still being a reasonably productive scorer. I think though that Kulemin has struggled mightily this year, but there were high expectations for the whole line to have a repeat season.
Also lol @ Hawks/Nucks being the biggest rivalry, maybe the biggest developing rivalry since the lockout, but not the biggest rivalry. There is a huge amount of hatred and animosity between Leafs and Sens fans this year, not so much with Montreal because they are sucking the big one this season.
LOL Bozer and Clarke Mac with goals 19 seconds apart.
4-1 leafs.. burke sign garbo now please
did u all see the goal anderson gave up.. from like centre ice
My entire point was, ignore it! The media is the media, is the media! We might mention it, but at most, that's all your gonna get from the majority of people in this thread. You have a mute button when the news starts talking about it, you have a web address to change the bar on tsn.ca or nhl.com. We don't care if hes playing, you don't care if hes playing, so lets get back to the season!
PS. Until we all chip in and buy our own Hockey media page and channel, its just the way it is.
seriously Toronto? 4-1 and its 4-4 now? you actually gave Pitt at least 1 point? Jesus Christ.
