treble

We were supposed to get all this snow, but we hardly got any. The wind's cold, though, which is made worse since it was above freezing just a few days ago, so I've just got to avoid going outside as much as possible.

Stop.

Maybe this is why Banky decided to leave.

I don't know, after Roy, Brodeur, and Hasek, he's the best goalie of the era. Plus, he's got as many Cups as Hasek (1) and more Vezinas than Brodeur (Belfour's 2 to Brodeur's 1). 419 wins and 69 shutouts is nothing to sneeze at, either.

Some others I forgot: -Scott Stevens: He's in, captain of 3 Cup winners, long career, one of the most feared players in league history. -Luc Robitaille: Highest scoring LW ever, he should be a shoo-in. -Phil Housley: Long career, high scoring defenceman. A little suspect defensively, so I'd put him in the borderline category.

to the liquor store They have gum, right?

Why do you pick so many fights?

I hardly posted in this thread at all.

Stop the madness. Stop the ellipses.

Yeah, I know how you feel. I let Sopel go right before he got hot, now I'm having trouble getting a 4th defenceman who can rack up points.

I think Gilmour's helped by the fact that his best years happened in Toronto. It wouldn't have had the same impact had it happened in St. Louis or Calgary, but that's not to diminish the fact that he was a VERY good player during that time period. Richter was hurt by playing for some bad teams towards the end of his career, as well as sharing #1 duties with John Vanbiesbrouck for a little while at the start of his career. He wasn't the clear-cut #1 guy until Beezer left for Florida in the expansion draft.

I put Roberts and Nolan on the list because I remembered reading some article discussing the Leafs and listing them as potential Hall of Famers. I'll admit I'm biased and that they are long shots, but I just wanted to gauge opinion on them. Completely forgot about Shanahan, Nieuwendyk, and Lidstrom, though. I wouldn't be surprised if all 3 got in, as Lidstrom's one of the best defenceman of this era, while Nieuwendyk and Shanahan have 3 Cups apiece plus an Olympic Gold (plus Nieuwendyk and Lidstrom are Conn Smythe winners).

Well, no one would ever admit it, but I'd be willing to bet that most politicians would kill to be half the public speaker Hitler was.

Forgot about Chelios completely, but meant to put Modano on the list (probably under borderline, but he's not that far from a lock, IMO). I put Richter as a lock as I figured he's probably the best American born goalie ever. Add his Stanley Cup, World Cup, and Silver Medal into the equation and he's in, in my book, and more deserving of the honour than CuJo, whom he beat in the World Cup final. The only thing CuJo's really won is the Gold Medal as a back-up. CuJo may have been more dominant over his career, but fact that he's never won anything hurts him. As for Roy, I think after Gretzky the HoF pretty much said that was the last time they would waive the eligibility rule. Can't really blame them as retirement doesn't mean much anymore these days (as we've seen with Hasek coming back after only 1 year and a HoFer 'playing' [when he's not hurt] in Pittsburgh).

Vince McMahon is like Hitler.

Which one's the Hitler one, since I'm stuck on dial-up and don't feel like looking through a bunch of ads trying to find that one. Thanks.

Fuck, this was the THIRD year in a row Canada blew a 3rd period lead in the Gold Medal game. Well, congrats to the US, anyway.

I'm partial to the one I nominated, obviously.

I should have put Teemu Selanne and Paul Kariya on the borderline list, as they probably have a better shot at being inducted than some of the players already on the list.

I'm just going to bump up this thread to brag about how I'm only 3 points out of 1st now.

Oh, I also hate it when people make stupid typos in topic titles on very easy to spell words. I mean, "Kevin Nahs officially gone from the WWE!", that's horrible. Have some pride.

Do you have Cyborg Justice?

I should clarify that I doesn't really bug me when it's in the actual post (as long as it's used sparingly and your post doesn't read, 'Well.......... You know....... I think that was good.... but not THAT good... you know?), just in the title and topic description. Yeah, weird stuff bothers me, I know.

Crazy going slowly am I.

This game is so coming down to Vanderjagt missing a chip shot and costing the Colts the game.
