  • First Period Thread – Hawks at Canucks

    She’s got the biggest tits, he’s got the longest dick, and I get to read about it every week. You hear that sucking sound? It’s culture going down. Seaward with the C-words, submerged in shit with dreams to drown.

    Blackfish: Nucks Misconduct

    Now the circus trip moves to its most western destination in British Columbia, where where the Hawks and Canucks will renew acquaintances and rekindle what’s now left of one of the more volatile rivalries within the boundaries of Lockout 2.0 and Lockout 3.0.

    Friday Grinds My Gears

    The NHL always has an annoying, league-wide storyline going. Sometimes it’s head shots. Others it’s hits from behind. Sometimes it’s concussion protocol, or goalie gear, or TV show overdose, whatever.

    But the one that’s annoying me the most right now, and has for a long, long time, is the uproar over how many games are going to shootouts. Add to that the silly OT proposals to try and remedy this, and I’m about ready to put on an Argonauts jersey and talking about oral sex (too soon?).

    You know the problem. This season, the amount of games going to a shootout has risen, and it’s getting ridiculous. So the solutions have been thrown around. 3-on-3 in OT after 4-on-4, which sounds only slightly less gimmicky than the shootout. Have the teams switch ends for the long change. Whatever else.

    It’s all stupid. Just end the fucking thing in a tie.

  • Supporting Caste – Hawks 6, Jets 3

    Supporting Caste – Hawks 6, Jets 3

    It feels repetitive at this point, but given this is the third time this month that these two teams have played, it’s not surprising that once again the Hawks and Jets followed the same template.  Hawks control early, let the opposition off the mat in the second, then say “fuck this” with time to spare and cruise out with two points.

    Hey, don’t you know it’s a waste of your day
    Caught up in endless solutions
    That have no meaning, just another hunch
    Based upon jumping conclusions

    Pow! Right between the eyes
    Oh, how nature loves her little surprises
    Wow! It all seems so logical now
    It’s just one of her better disguises

  • Hawks at Jets 1st Period Thread

    And oh, why can’t we let it be
    And see through the hole in this wall of confusion

    WHERE YOU SHOULD WATCH: At The Piggery (Irving and Ashland) With Us

    For the second time in a week, the Hawks will look to bounce back after an ugly loss, however bad you actually believe Tuesday’s loss to be. On Sunday, they returned from the skewering in Nashville to smother the Sharks. Needless to say, the Jets are not the Sharks. See what I did there?
