Why?!? Granted, he's a rookie, but damn, he is on fire! He has saved the Hawks on many occasions. Ahaha, we should get together and talk.... hockey lol
lol i know right? there's just sooo much to talk about........ in hockey ;D it used to be that a team would never get far in the playoffs, without deep goaltending....... looks like this year has proved otherwise lol hawks: niemi makes what... 800k a year? flyers: leighton, third line goalie, makes what... 600k? just wait till next year...... LEAFS 4 CUP
why facepalm? i don't understand, i honestly don't Forwards Phil Kessel Tyler Bozak Nicolai Kulemin Viktor Stalberg Nazem Kadri Christian Hanson John Mitchell Luca Caputi Fredrik Sjostrom Rickard Wallin Colton Orr Defensemen Dion Phaneuf Francois Beauchemin Mike Komisarek Carl Gunnarsson Luke Schenn Keith Aulie Goalies Jonas Gustavsson J.S. Giguere last time i checked, this is a new roster than last year's failure, a new gm than last year's failure... so please, tell me where the fail lies, because i fail to see it edit: some notables Nazem Kadri: top 3 OHL players Tyler Bozak: DEEEEEEEP potential gustavsson: best performing world championship goalie, bronze winner gunnarson and wallin: bronze winners kulemin: silver winner, steamrolled stamkos giving up on a new roster, new team.... im disappointed. give burke a chance. mark my words, we will make it to the playoffs.
raptors will still have a better season than the leafs and yes even without bosh thats how much i know leafs will suckzors lol at leafs forward kessel who who and who? kessel +ahl roster good luck scoring!!! dont get me going on our goaltending thats another story!!
-_________- why are you booing the leafs, if you don't even care about the prospects we have................. Kessel: 30 goal season since the trade, with NO training camp.. that's very good Kadri: Top 3 OHL player after Seguin and Hall......... top 3 prospect... ALSO VERY GOOD Kulemin: Facing Miller? psh. This kid will put 5 pucks in the net. Gustavsson: .915 SA% in last 15 regular season games. those are four of many..... how you judging the leafs based on the assumption that prospects suck.......... :( had the leafs started the season with the roster we now have, we'd be in the top 4 playoff spot, at 98 points. (estimation from last 15 games) oh, on a side note, the reason why leafs sucked since lockout was because of weak goaltending and defense.... we addressed that at the end of the season this year. anyways, i know you're not gonna even read 90% of the shit i write, so when the leafs start winning, you guys shouldn't be cheering for them lol
hmmmm im not sure i know which team i'd cheer for..... im not a fan of the zamboni driver goalie (niemi) getting the stanley.. but i want toews to get the stanley i'm not sure i'd like to see dan carcillo with the stanley ring.... but leighton sorta deserves it, by the way he's been playing fuck it... i hate dan carcillo so much more than i like leighton, so GO HAWKS
lol i don't dislike niemi i just find that compared to other goalies in the league, he doesn't deserve to win the stanley just yet.. he's a player who's doing just decently, and surfing on a wave that happens to be on the way to winning the cup.. those who've been playing like they deserve the cup imo, include Tuuka Rask, Ryan Miller, Jaroslav Halak, and even Michael Leighton (three shutouts -shock now that's a cinderella story).. He's doing good, don't get me wrong, i just don't feel he deserves it as much as the other 4... my 2 cents
im sorry i take it back......................... niemi is making some godlike saves...................... im actually surprised lol
lol did you guys see at the end of game 2? Pronger takes the puck so that Niemi has nothing to take home lol
YES! Hawks win game 2!! Niemi was amazing. Kept the Hawks in the game with his amazing saves. Yeah, saw Pronger taking the puck. Apparently he did that in game 1 too. Jeez, let Niemi have is moment! It's his first year in NHL and first Stanley cup final.
