CanadianChris 0 Report post Posted August 31, 2005 Dunno if anyone south of the border heard about this show, but CBC had a reality show last season called Making The Cut. They had over 4,000 people apply to compete for one spot in each of the six Canadian NHL teams' training camp. There's a story at tsn.ca/hockey on the six winners. I doubt more than two of them will even crack the minor league roster, but it's a fun little story. In other news, Hal Gill accepted his qualifying offer with the Bruins, and Karel Pilar of the Leafs will miss 2-3 months with a heart condition. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nl5xsk1 0 Report post Posted August 31, 2005 How long must the Hal Gill era last?!? The guy sucks offensively and is average at best defensively. He's still coasting by on a mis-quote from Jaromir Jagr from like 6 years ago ... ugh, c'mon B's, just trade him the fuck away already. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

the max 0 Report post Posted August 31, 2005 I bet Bobby Clarke would like to have him. He fits Clarke's criteria: 1- Big (Gill is 6'7", 250) 2- Lumbering (Gill's weakness is skating) 3- Defenseman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nl5xsk1 0 Report post Posted September 2, 2005 Both OLN & NBC allegedly released their TV schedules, Wednesday & yesterday (respectively) but it's like pulling teeth to find them. I know the B's are on NBC three times, and on OLN 6 (I think) but it's wicked difficult to find an all-encompassing list of games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nl5xsk1 0 Report post Posted September 2, 2005 It's not as newsworthy, but nl5xsk1 thinks Stevens is going to retire, too. EDIT: And after looking through the schedules, why does OLN think the B's/Caps is worthy of showing 3 times? And why do two B's/Thrashers games get national coverage?!?
