Season about to start, Toxx time.

You gals and guys were throwing your dumb drunk opinions around left and right this offseason. Bet you didn't think anyone was keep track. Lets get this started:

tofes posted:

I guarantee the Sharks are a playoff team next year and you can :toxx: me on that


VJeff posted:

I'm sick of you dumb moron idiots and your doubts of the Oshdog!

Provided he plays as many games he did in his full years with the Blues (min. 76), TJ Oshie will reach a career high in goals and in points in both the regular season and playoffs in 2015-16.
:toxx:


Jordan7hm posted:

(I'll do an EHM sim of the SAS Draft)

I will this time. Consider it a toxx I guess.


Tremendous Taste posted:

I'll wager that buffalo isn't bottom 5
(see also)

And in response

Ginette Reno posted:

If Buffalo finishes out of the bottom 5 I'll buy a Dan Bylsma avatar and wear it for a year :toxx:


JollyPubJerk posted:

[Buffalo are] making the playoffs. They have an entire new top 6, an actual coach, a possibly great goaltender (but this isnt requirement), and some great defense, just short on the left side :toxx:


whatis posted:

:toxx: buffalo will not rank bottom five in goals per game or goals allowed per game. if they do, i'll fuckin kill myself!!!!!

Woah.



RC Cola posted:

If the Blackhawks don't win the cup this year I'll buy a jersey of the team that knocks them out of the playoffs, and take a picture of me wearing it doing an impression of whatever players jersey I buy and make it my avatar. If the Hawks miss the playoffs entirely I'll buy a jersey of every team that finished higher than them that also missed the playoffs and do a YouTube video of impersonations. :toxx:


Might need you to firm this one up a bit:

.Spec posted:

swap Scuderi with Lovejoy (who I feel like I should toxx myself on him making it even to the deadline without getting waved) and I would get on board.


Habibi posted:

I don't want to spend five dollars or whatever on a Tanguay av (if someone wants to get me one, though, I'd wear it), but I would one hundred percent do the latter and you can :toxx: me on it.

e: I'll post pictures of the letter, envelope, and me actually putting it into a post office box, as well as any responses or further correspondence as may occur.


TT making dumb bets all over the place.

Tremendous Taste posted:

I'll toxx bet you [Hammond] puts up average or better numbers this year

So above league average at the end of the season? Is there a minimum games played?


Overwined posted:

For every Ottawa Senator PK Subban injures, I will give USD $1,000 to the Children's Defense Fund. I will give $10,000 if he injures a sports journalist of any stripe.

EDIT: Inserted Ottawa before Senators. We cool, NSA?

Big money. HK, care to make a judgement call on what qualifies as injured? TIA!


Koopa Kid posted:

Every player on the Leafs roster will record at least one goal this year.

...

Hey I'm down, make it active roster, min 9 games played (cause I ain't writing poo poo about Nathan Horton) and I'll toxx it.

Bernie and Rime Time better start watching old Fatty tapes.


VJeff posted:

If Brad Richards records a point in his regular season Red Wings debut, I will immediately buy an av of him. :toxx:


And finally, a trend I can really get behind:

Austrian mook posted:

Alright you little fucks, it's time we cleared some things up. The Anaheim Ducks. You know them, god knows I fuckin know them, but what about them. Three words, THE STANELY CUP. For sure, no doubt, EA sim predicted it, Im predicting it and frankly anyone with anything more than a loving crumpled up brussel sprout in between their ears is predicting it. How will they win? Ryan Getzlaf. The one, the only, the best god drat hockey player on God's great earth. Ive had the visions, I've done the math. Its a done deal. Getzlaf will hoist the cup, again, and theres not a loving thing any one of you fuckers can do to stop it.


:toxx: If it doesnt happen, Im gone all off season

Why not make it a double?



I'll join the fun:

:toxx: Dallas Stars Best Team in Hockey will make it out of the first round this year. If they fail to do so I will buy an AV of whichever team/player that puts the final nail in. If, like stupid BS last year, they fail to make the playoffs, I'll do the same for whomever eliminates form contention (how I got the awful Buffatar). Additionally, if they miss the playoffs I'll donate :10bux: :10bux: :10bux: to MSF. :toxx:

So to tighten the toxx if the Hawks miss the playoffs I'll buy a jersey of a player on every team that did finished above them that also missed the playoffs. I will then make a video of me acting like either the player or the team (so if Arizona does better I'll crawl on the ground and try to eat my Pomeranian like a coyote). If they don't win the cup same thing but for the team that knocks them out. And if its the Ducks I'll let Mook choose the player.

You may want to sit down for a while. This is a big one.



The squares are (a little clarification), top left to bottom right:
  • Alexander Semin finishes the season on a team not called the Montreal Canadiens (St John's counts as not Montreal)
  • The Habs get Swept out of the playoffs. If the Habs aren't in the playoffs, this one counts automatically.
  • Max Pacioretty fails to score 40 goals
  • The Habs lose their regular season series to Boston (I count them as playing 5 games, the Habs need to win at least 3)
  • The Habs fail to make the playoffs
  • The Habs lose their regular season series to Toronto (I count them as playing 4 games, the Habs need to win at least 3)
  • PK Subban has more than 80 PIMs
  • Carey Price has a SV% of less than .927
  • Alex Galchenyuk finishes the season playing in a position that is not Center

For every square that is true, $10 to dans le rue. For every line that is true (diagonals count!) $100 to Dans le Rue. If the whole thing is true, ban me thread and $500 to Dans le rue.
I may use Australian Funbux to pay for this - we'll see what the exchange rate is.

If NONE of it is true (and I'm expecting at least Semin to be gone by the end of the season), I get a brand new Avatar featuring Michel Therrien as chosen by HAS. If Therrien is no longer the coach, I will get one of Goldblum/Bergevin.

On the day after the end of the regular season, I shall eat one McDonald's cheeseburger for every game that Andrew Hammond started and either lost or was pulled from for being terrible, and I'll also give ten dollars to Roger's House for every NHL goal scored by any Ottawa Senators player, as long as that player is over the age of 35 and his first name is Chris.

If the Bruins make the playoffs I will donate $1 per point earned in the standings to a charity...I don't know which yet, but I would like to do something local here in DC. I am open to suggestions though to anything in DC, Boston, or a nationwide charity that does cool stuff.

If the Bruins miss the playoffs, I will donate $0.25 per point earned in the standings, multiplied by how many spots out of a playoff spot they were. Minimum donation of $50
Ex: Say theoretically the Bruins earn 84 points and end up last in the East. That would be 84 x .25 = $21, times seven spots out of the 8th seed, so $147. Like I said, the minimum donation will be $50, so even if they finish with 100 points and only 1 spot out of the playoffs, I'd do $50 instead of $25 per the math I outlined.

Additionally, if Montreal sweeps the season series against Boston I will make the above donation, whichever it is, to a charity of HAS' choosing at the end of the season. Donation will be made prior to the end of the playoffs.

Flip on this. I will eat a mcdonalds hamburger with 48 hours for every game Hammond wins. At end of season, I will go to the bars owned by the over 35 players name chris, and drink 1 beer for every goal they scored (Central Bierhaus for Neil, Big Rig for Phillips). I will not eat any food at big rig because I always get food poisoning there.

If the John Tortorella-led Columbus Blue Jackets make the playoffs, I will make a donation to The John and Christine Tortorella Foundation in the amount of points Torts' CBJ earned en route to the post-season.

For those not keeping score at home, that would be "in the amount of all of the points the team earned en route to the post-season."

Phillips has been hurt all year long and probably won't score at all, so Chris Neil is leading the charge with 20 of my dollars for sick kids.

  • Alex Semin is already not playing for the Habs.
  • The Habs are not currently on pace for the Playoffs.
  • Pacioretty is not currently on pace for 40 goals.
  • The Habs tied the Bruins in the season series. I'm going to say that they didn't lose, and that this won't count.
  • The Habs are not currently on pace for the Playoffs.
  • The Habs have won their season series against Toronto.
  • Subban is on track for more than 80 PIMs.
  • Price currently has an sv% of .934, although I'm expecting that to drop like a rock when he gets back.
  • Galchenyuk is currently playing wing.

If the season ended today and was statistically extrapolated to 82 games for shits and giggles I would owe $310 (three lines, top row and diagonal from top left and also from top right).

With the Australian Dollar and Canadian dollar being pretty much at parity, I'd pay in AUD.
