GO LEAFS GO
 

i'm sure all the torontonians will agree :D

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

See NHL Playoff topic two threads down. Flyers will win anyway, so your chants are meaningless. Meaningless I say!

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

Why make a new thread? If Leafs lose, it is all your fault.

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

Mwahahahahaha!!!!!..... :sneaky:

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

You sure called it! Don't you hate when that happens?

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

gah, the philly match was rigged, rigged i tell ya!

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

If anything's rigged, it's some of the rediculous calls that have been made in Toronto's favor, or should I say non-calls, during the series.

Go Flyers. Tie Domi is a Nancy Boy.

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

You know what my dad says about Tie Domi? He said that he is a tough guy, but when someone picks a fight with him, he's a chicken and backs off.

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

There was one time when a fan was yelling at him and he practically pulled the idiot over the glass. He's tough, but doesn't always back down.

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

I know, that was a Flyers fan, and I believe it was last year. They showed that during yesterday's game.

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

Tie Domi is a little biatch. He dives up and down the ice and then starts yapping at the opposing bench when his team is losing by five goals. Have some respect for the game and your team you ass clown.

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

Domi isn't a fighter any more, boys. That is Belak's role. Domi will drop the mits once in a while, but his game is much better than it ever has been, so he is riding on that.

And him and that drunken idiot Flyers fan are friends now. Actually, kind of a funny little story, haha.

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

Golf Leafs Golf.

Flyers win, Flyers win! Go Blackhawks East!

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

golf. hehehe


I dont get the blackhawks part tho. wtf is with that? Go blackhawks east???

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

Amonte, Roenick, Zhamnov: all former hawks, all on the same line in Philly, (AKA the Blackhawk Down line) Philly is east of Chicago.

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

Yes, and thank you very much for them! Flyers would be nothing without that line.

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

Funny how Chicago never managed to do anything with them, though.

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

Chicago was decent when they had them. i remember the conference finals between hawks and wings in 95? i think

i hope chicago gets going again, my 2nd fav team along with the leafs.

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

Well, at least Tucker punked Kapenen. Easily one of the hardest hits I've ever seen. Do you think Sami realizes that they've won yet? :p

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

Was Belfour on Blackhawks in 95? Or was he allready in Dallas?

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

yea, he was on Hawks

Hawks had Amonte (i think) , Roenick, Chelios, Belfour. not sure bout the others, but they were quite decent.

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

The Blackhawks made the playoffs for 16 or 17 straight seasons. They were in the Stanley Cup Finals in 1992 (swept by Pittsburgh) and they made the western conference finals in 95 and lost to the wings 4 games to 1, all 4 of Detroit's wins were by one goal. That 95 team had Cheilos, Amonte, Belfour, Bernie Nichols (who still had some left in the tank at the time) Joe Murphy (same) Keith Carney, and Bob Probert. Jeremy Roenick was on the team but he missed most of 95 after Darien Hatchetman Hatcher destroyed his knee in a game (I think that was the knee year, but it may have been the jaw year, I don't remember.)

ESPN recently named the Blackhawks the worst franchise in sports and I couldn't agree more. They simply refuse to spend money, and they now average just over 10,000 people a night. This from a franchise that used to sell out every single home game.

The ownership here is so spiteful; the home games aren't even televised.

As if all that wasn't enough to make hawk fans puke, right when that team was coming together in 1992, their coach was Mike Keenan. He was fired because he wanted control of personal. What did he want to do?

He was going to trade Ed Balfour for Joe Sakic, and put his faith in his backup goaltender.......

Dominic Hasek.

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

Is all of that true?

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

All of that is true....and i couldnt stand not having games Televised...all but i think 7 or 8 games of the Canucks wernt Televised. But out of the 70 or so games on T.V. there were about 10 on Pay Per View for like $10. I think thats better than having 20 games un-televised.

Do the other hockey cities do the Pay Per View game thing too...or just us?

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

Every saturday night game for the Leafs is on CBC, no matter what. And during playoffs they air every game. Weekday games for the Leafs are usually aired on TSN or SportsNet.

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

Pretty much every Flyers is game is on Comcast Sportsnet (basic cable) here. There aren't many (if any) games that aren't either broadcast on CSN or ABC, or occasionally UPN 57 I believe.

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

So none of yours are on PPV????? the Canucks games are either on CBC on Saturdays...TSN on select Wed/Thurs and then Sports net Pacific the rest that arnt on PPV..

This makes me feel like we (Canuck fans) are getting screwed out of a few free televised games... :mad:

RE: Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

Yeah that's right. Some of them could be though.Tell me more.What is your real name?
What does "this" refer to?I do not understand.

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

Somebody doesn't read the GameTavern news.

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

Pay to watch games? THat must suck... I get all the Leaf games I think....

But there is LeafsTV... and I assume that once the contracts with CBC and others runs out, you'll have to pay to get LeafsTV o watch games...

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

Wings games used to be on PPV once in a while, many many years ago. but no not anymore.
Normally they play most the season games on UPN, (nomal TV, not even a cable channel)
this season i think every game was on TSN sports channel. basic cable.

Yanno. i got to thinkin. i had TOTALLY forgot that the TB lighting are detroit owned. lol. The guy who owns the Detroit Pistons owns the TB Lightning.

he possibly may have 2 championship teams on his hands. and to think, he only bought the TB lightning so he could use thier stadium. never planed on them actually winning and making money. lol

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

That Tampa thing must be a huuuuge bonus for that guy...the pistons won the title? wow....i didnt even know Basketball playoffs started yet...Vancouver doesnt really get much big coverage of the NBA since the Grizzlies left, and i dont know why they did...they sold out the majority of the games once it was announced the team was sold..

...And to get this straight so im not misunderstood or anything, only a handfull of games are on PPV, and its only $10. So if you get 10 bussies over to watch the game...its only a buck each....or 1000 guys and you only gotta fork over a penny...

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

No, Pistons didn't win the title and I doubt they will. NBA hoops are only in the second round. The Spurs or Kings will beat any team out of the East IMO.

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

actually pistons have quite a good shot at it.

what i was saying is he COULD have 2 championship teams on his hands. they both have a decen chance.

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

Pistons will definitely not win this year.

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

wouldnt say def not, they have more of a chance then you think.

however basketball sadly is not like hockey. its almost predictable that the better team wins is basketball. i like the fact in hockey anyone can win.

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

This is a little off topic...but i just heard this morning that Don Cherry is the highest paid Canadian Government employee....thats wrong somehow...he said somebody tried to get him to run for parlaiment, he said he would, but he didnt want to take a pay cut...this is a true story i tell you my amigo's.

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

Nothing is like basketball. It's been the same teams since the 1980s and nobody wins only one championship. Since the 76ers in 83 it's only been Boston, LA, Houston, Detroit, Chicago and San Antonio. Six different champions since 1984.
Compare that with 13 in baseball
10 in hockey
11 in football.

The best team nearly always wins in basketball and always wins multiple titles.

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

Maybe basketball is fixed for the most popular team to win??

Has it occured to anyone else we are talking about random sports in a thread about the Leafs?

Re: GO LEAFS GO
 

Wanna know why?
There's no longer anywhere for the Leafs to go... except for going HOME!!!!!!!!!!! :D
