I do what I can - like pulling teeth the last six or seven weeks! - angus Fri, 07 Sep 2012 14:05:56 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/other-features-mainmenu-89/archived-ramblings/4880-september-07-2012#comment-22463 I love the new format, Angus. It allows me to quickly scan the ramblings and skip the bits I'm not interested in, which unfortunately is most of the hockey info out there these days. No offense meant...I'm just getting bored of the lack of real hockey talk out there due to the pending lockout. You guys do the best job you can of finding hockey material to discuss at a time without much going on. - SeaDawg Fri, 07 Sep 2012 10:59:27 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/other-features-mainmenu-89/archived-ramblings/4880-september-07-2012#comment-22457 As a Blues Fan. ....Berglund and MacDonald really made each other go last year. Perron/Steen - Backes - Oshie was typically the first line and Perron/Steen - Berglund - Stewart was the second. However, Berglund and Stewart never really clicked, so when MacDonald came back, he slid onto the wing on Berglund's line and that's when they both took off. I'd think based on their expectations for Tarasenko, and last year's chemistry.... Perron - Backes - Oshie MacDonald - Berglund - Tarasenko Steen - Schwartz - Stewart D'Agostini/Reaves - Sobotka/Nichol - Langenbrunner . . . with any of the 4th liners moving up to the third if Schwartz or Stewart struggle. - ianreynolds1 Fri, 07 Sep 2012 07:29:40 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/other-features-mainmenu-89/archived-ramblings/4880-september-07-2012#comment-22455 "...a lot of proven NHL talents in Zach Boychuk, Bobby Sanguinetti, Drayson Bowman and Zac Dalpe...". What? Was that a typo "NHL" should be "AHL"? - His Dudeness Fri, 07 Sep 2012 07:04:39 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/other-features-mainmenu-89/archived-ramblings/4880-september-07-2012#comment-22454 Regarding the Visnovsky rambling, I have to think Anaheim didn't sign Souray for that term/amount not to play on the PP. - His Dudeness Fri, 07 Sep 2012 06:59:43 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/other-features-mainmenu-89/archived-ramblings/4880-september-07-2012#comment-22453 Thanks for the feedback, Ross. - angus Fri, 07 Sep 2012 06:58:30 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/other-features-mainmenu-89/archived-ramblings/4880-september-07-2012#comment-22450 I enjoy the new format. The spacing compliments concise, concrete thoughts. Well done. As far as Jagr in Columbus, seems like it would have been a move to drum up some excitement around town. - Ross The Boss Palmer Fri, 07 Sep 2012 04:49:24 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/other-features-mainmenu-89/archived-ramblings/4880-september-07-2012#comment-22449 blues top nine is muddy, but i think you will at least see players in the following positions to start the season.... C - backes, berglund, steen LW - perron, macdonald, schwartz RW - oshie, stewart, tarasenko combos to be determined.... - InnocentBystander Fri, 07 Sep 2012 03:25:57 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/other-features-mainmenu-89/archived-ramblings/4880-september-07-2012#comment-22448 Those referee uniforms are embarrassing and I get dizzy trying to watch a game with all those loud ads all over the ice. And don't get me started on those walking billboards they call players. Let's hope that the NHL never needs revenue enough to go to that extreme. - Excelsior Fri, 07 Sep 2012 02:33:54 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/other-features-mainmenu-89/archived-ramblings/4880-september-07-2012#comment-22447 He is totally correct on this analysis, if there is no pressure to get the CBA signed then neither side was going to bring its best offer to the table. This is also the reason why nothing was done during last season, when everyone was wondering why they hadn't started work on the new CBA when they knew it was going to expire. Until the players start missing pay cheques and the owners start seeing less revenue coming through the door there is no urgency. The problem for the players is that only a small percentage of them have been earning mega bucks and can afford to go without pay, the lesser paid players are the ones that start to crack first. The owners will win again, to some degree, as they have less to lose. - UKflames Fri, 07 Sep 2012 00:52:28 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/other-features-mainmenu-89/archived-ramblings/4880-september-07-2012#comment-22444 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dOZduzgHGZ0 - StevenY Thu, 06 Sep 2012 22:23:20 +0100 http://hockey.dobbersports.com/index.php/other-features-mainmenu-89/archived-ramblings/4880-september-07-2012#comment-22443 It's interesting to see fights in leagues outside north america. From what I've seen (very little) from the KHL and Finland is that there is much less respect. - john.kawula Thu, 06 Sep 2012 20:51:49 +0100
