I think the official list of Kournikova's bedmates consists only of Federov and Enrique Iglesias, with Pavel Bure highly rumoured.

Ahem. At, uh, this time, Senator, I can neither confirm, nor deny, whether or not, my name should be added to that list. However, I am told, by counsel, that I can confirm, that she was, uh, much stronger than I had anticipated. Thank you.

The Hart is given to the MVP (hence why I posted all the other stats about Ovie)

The Ross is given for most points, tool.

No s#*t, but when was the last time the Hart was given to someone who didn't participate in the postseason? Better hope that's not a deciding factor, fool…

I was just remarking on how you think it is absurd that anyone else other Ovechkin has a chance to win the MVP.

And if you think the only reason the Pens have a fanbase is because of Crosby then you are a blithering idiot. The organization has a tradition that nearly ranks up there with the Original Six. (Have you heard of that term Mr. Super Hockey fan?!) I can probably name you three Pens from each season's roster going back to the mid-80's.

I love this trash talking. Man, this Sunday is gonna be fun….

-1988 to Mario Lemuiex , Pens finished last in the Patrick- You should know that 'Mr. I-know-the-roster-going-back-to-the-mid-8O's Super Hockey Fan' tool.

-I never said only Ovie has a chance. I'm not a blind homer like Pen's fans. Any number of western conference teams have a great shot. Iginla, Datsyuk, Alfie, Nabokov

-It'll be a good tough game, the only thing I'm guaranteeing is seeing some douchebag, bandwagon Pens fans.

Gosh. Its fun to rile you up, slappy.

I'm aware of Mario's MVPs. But that was 20 years ago and he was greatest hockey player of all time.

Sorry I didn't have time to look up the exact year on the internet.

And Pens fans have been filling DC arenas for quite some time. I do remember a particular controversy in the 90s when the Caps ownership were blocking playoff ticket sales coming out of Pittsburgh. Can a bandwagon last for over 10 years?

I'm far from riled. You guys are so clueless its funny.
I'd take Grez, Gordie, and Richard before Mario on the greatest.

FYI… there's a thing called Google try it sometime its really fast for looking up things you don't know… i mean forgot. ;)

Those are the definites. Add Yzerman, Roy and Orr to that list as well.

The next tier has Mario, Francis, Esposito, maybe Coffey, Messier and Lidstrom too.

You're probably trying not to be too bias, but Lidstrom could go up to the top tier. Probably the greatest European to play in the NHL.

BTW, what happened to the kid from Potomac, Brian whatsisface who played for the Caps…were is he now?

I'm just glad there's no "Jagr" on anyones best list…he's top of the 'most overrated' list, imho of course.

If you're including heart and soul and not just pure skill then you have to include Dale Hunter and Rod Langway to any 'greatest' list.

I'd have him in my third tier. He lacks leadership no doubt, but on sheer numbers alone, it's going to be hard to deny at the end of his career he was an elite++ player (albeit in a scoring mad time frame).

Everyone does offensive players in their lists, but there are alot of goalies and d-men ones should consider. Sawchuk, Roy, Hasek, and Tretiak (if we're counting non-NHL guys too) all can make a case for being in the top two tiers, as probably could Orr, Lidstrom, Harvey, Bourque, Coffey, and maybe even Niedermayer or Chelios.

In setting my Sports Agenda for the weekend on the DVR, I realized this was the NBC game of the week. One of you yappers should do something and get yourself on TV.

Jeff Halpern? He just got traded from Dallas to Tampa Bay. Scored a goal in his 1st game with the Lightning.

The zebras win the game for the Bruins today.

Although this bonehead didn't help…

There's also Stephen Werner from Chevy Chase, playing down on the farm with the Stingrays although it looks like he's out with an injury

I hope you enjoyed the game Slappy!

Some thoughts:

*Pens vs. Caps is a hockey showcase. No trapping here: up & down the ice. Lots of rough stuff - just superb hockey.

*Hi-def is made for hockey.

*Looked like a LOT of Pens fans there. TV crew said a split crowd.

*Huet was great in the third. Some amazing saves. A nice pickup.

*Sid - 2 goals…Alex - ZERO

It was good and close.
The Caps outplayed the Pens.
Rookie mistake lost it for us.

Actually, Sid had 1 goal, the second was just credited to him.
Sid-2 points (kinda) Ovie-2 points (no kinda about it)

Nowhere near 'split' 75% Caps fans 25% Pens fans
They were only loud at the beginning and the end of the game.

Fluery was impressive in goal facing 38 shots.

I did enjoy laughing at the retarded Pen's fans lack of understanding the Caps 'whoop, whoop'. They started doing it to Ovechkin with no realization that Caps fans have been doing it to former Caps players for 20 years, not as real diss.

On to the Calgary game and Iginla.

"The win also gave Crosby another notch in a one-sided head-to-head rivalry with Ovechkin. The Penguins are 10-1 against the Capitals when both are playing."

Sid-2 points, Ovie-2 points, Malkin-3 pts

Pens fans…were only loud at the beginning and the end of the game and when you could clearly hear a Let's Go Pens chant on tv.

I made a few editorial corrections above…

wow, must be really rough losing to the gay, mulletted pens featuring the inferior crosby and malkin. especially with their nonexistent, douchebag, bandwagon fans. just rough, eh?

Not really.
Since I never said Crosby and Malkin are inferior or their fans are nonexistent.
They are douchebag, bandwagon fans with way too much self-importance.
But…
- I don't have to live as one.
- I don't live around them in that shit-hole that is Pittsburgh

So in the grand scheme of things, its not rough at all.

Let's Go Caps!
