Are they going to be stupid enough to take on his whole salary though? I mean that contract runs through 20fucking24.

That explains that. Also could explain Murray's lovely play so far this season if his dad was sick for a while.

That really sucks about his dad, but at least he got to his son go back to back as a rookie which is about the highest thing he can achieve in his sport so that's... something I guess.

The AHL Charlotte Checkers will play an Empty Arena Match game tonight because of the snowstorm

I hope so badly this is streamed or broadcast somehow.

We had a game almost like that a few years ago. There was one of those weekday morning games, but due to a bunch of snow-days, a majority of the schools who had bought tickets to the game canceled on actually attending. So, there was roughly 500 total people in the arena, players and staff included. There was a school that showed up that sat behind me where I was working, which I remember because they screamed for 2 and a half hours straight.

I went through a four-day complete mindfuck when my mom had a cancer scare in 2011, so I can see this being the case. Difference is Murray didn't get the good news we did. :(

What's up with Jokinen this year? Reading his stats, 32GP 1-5-6, but he's averaging about 55% in the faceoff circle this year between Edmonton and LA, which immediately makes him somewhat useful already.

There's no player that can't be dumped. If the Hawks don't want him around, he'll be gone in the off-season.

I know I don't post in here very much anymore but I knew people here would understand when I say that Rene was partly responsible for the only time the anthem has ever made me tear up, by knowing when to step aside:

How can you hate an anthem singer?

I guess I get it though I hated the Peeeeeeeeeeeeeco powerrrrrrrrrrrrr play guy for years when Philly kept dunking on the Pens every game.

e: All that Leafs fan concern about the Leafs made me check the standings thinking someone was close to taking their spot but Detroit is the closest and are 11 points behind them :lol:. The Atlantic is kind of a tire fire eh?

nah we had a dude who was rapidly approaching, i'd say, his late 80's/early 90's who'd always be at karaoke and warbled worse than that and still got good crowd pops. Sorry you hate fun. :shrug:
