Why do you think that? Belfour is still a great goalie who is capable of putting on a Vezina performance. Despite some nagging injuries, he still plays full seasons and is in excellent condition for his age.

This place has a few. http://www.furiousrage.com/cgi-bin/furious.pl

Brodeur Belfour Luongo Turco Well that's four. I'm a Blackhawk fan and Bulin is a good to great goalie, but I wouldn't rate him as the best goalie in the league.
-
In your opinion maybe. Most people Ive discussed these matches with think they are some of the best matches they have ever seen, and the best matches between the two.
-
IC ladder match, Iron Man match.
-
I think most people do consider triple H to be more then just average in the ring. Sure his injuries have hampered him but he works extremely hard and generally puts on quality main events.
-
Thanks a lot.

Even if you credit in the other factors, it's still a testiment to Hunter to draw the second highest PPV of all time. I can let Austin slide for part of WM21's buyrate but Cena and Bradshaw had basically no buildup. Either way, give the man the credit he deserves.
-
That makes sense to some degree. The wrestlemania name does draw but how can you discredit Hunter from drawning when this years wrestlemania was very close to being the best drawing PPV of all time? He deserves a lot of credit for that. Cena and JBL didn't add any significant buys to the PPV and Austin/Piper didn't really add much either. What they did add was marginal.
-
I'd like to join the league but ive never been in one before. How do you sign up exactly?
-
He drew a pretty good buyrate with Batista this year at Wrestlemania. I dislike Triple H but even I think Hunter should get in. It's a no brainer. Look at his credentials like drainoscott mentioned. How can a 10 time champion and someone who I believe has main evented the most pay per views in history not be in the hall of fame? Anyone discrediting someone from the hall for always having good matches because of the use of gimmicks doesn't get it. Wrestling is a gimmick in itself. Regardless if you wrestle a technical match, garbage match or gimmick match, if a match is good a match is good. The WON hall isn't based on "techincal matches without use of gimmicks". Anyone who tries to discredit hunters matches because he uses a lot of gimmicks is making up their own criteria for him not getting in.

I'll chose not to believe that since Brett has retired from playing the game he loves and would have made more money by playing hockey then feining concussions for a settlement.
-
Who are you to say what's real and what isn't. Where is your proof to back up your claims. Concussions are very serious. I've had them before so I can relate. Once you get one serious concussion it doesn't take much to get another. It's a downward spiral for some people. Look at his brother's history.
-
I did and you clearly stated that he had 2-3 concussions As for the Tocchet incident. I heard that since Brind'amour demanded a trade once he found out about Lindros sleeping with his wife, Tocchet kind of "enforced" Lindros and drilled him with a punch. A few days later Lindros got a concussion from Gil. I never heard anything about Lindros sleeping with Tocchets wife though
-
I disagree with this statement. http://www.nhl.com/news/2005/08/232744.html This is a timeline of his career and I count 6. The Scott Stevens hit was his 6th career concussion and most of them were close together which would make matters worse.
-
No, the standard warrently does not cover accidental damage. Basically all console warrenties only cover possible defects in the original product.

There is a thread about this at Wrestling Classics. Meltzer makes some replies including this one: Hogan was a big draw for more years than Austin. But Austin's grosses were so huge that his few years were bigger than all of Hogan's put together. The profit margin in Austin's best year was more than the total profit margin, in fact, significantly more, between 1984 and 1992, which was the entire Hogan WWE era.

Yes, considering Brodeur played way more games then Eddie and only had 4 more wins and around 7 more losses than Belfour. Belfours W/L record was better and shutout frequency was better yet he got 2 votes in the Vezina trophy awards (one first place vote and a third if I remember correctly) Eddies team placed higher and Brodeur won the trophy despite not having better stats minus a slightly better GAA. Also take into effect that New Jersey as a team let in 164 Goals and Toronto as a team let in 204 and it shows just how valuable Belfour was in toronto even though his GAA was only .1 higher than Brodeur. When he wasn't playing, his team sucked lots. Belfour should have won the Vezina over Brodeur. Toronto also played run and gun while New Jersey trapped and that is usually why Brodeur has low GAA. For anyone to play on a run and gun team that scores as often as Toronto does and still have a low GAA like Eddie did that says alot about the quality of goaltending.
-
Of course not, I was using a comparison. Belfour beats Brodeur hands down in the stats catagory except for wins, which if Belfour played as many games as Brodeur did, he would beat him in that as well. Belfour had a way better statistical year then Brodeur but Brodeur won the vezina. Brodeur is probably the best goalie in the world but for the last NHL season, he wasn't the best goalie yet won the award.
-
His stats were better than Brodeur. Brodeur is a work horse and is the best goalie in the game, but his last season wasn't a top season for him. His wins were high like usual but he played over 70 games on a top club so he will always hit the near 40 mark. If you were to project Belfours stats into Brodeurs games played Belfour would have more wins, less losses, more shut outs and a barely higher GAA. Belfour had the better all round year. As for the person who said that Luongo deserved it more than Belfour. Maybe, but im still under the belief that if you can't get your team into the playoffs you shouldn't really be considered the top goalie even if your stats are fairly good. If Luongo got his team into the playoffs than I would be all for him winning the Vezina over both Eddie and Brodeur.
-
Probably not since he should have won the Vezina trophy the last NHL season.
-
Ask Brock Lesnar.
-
According to guys like Meltzer, not compete clauses mainly mean no TNA or Japan.

Mainly. Dragon Quest 6 though had excellent graphics for the SNES.

That's awfully old to be pregnant...
