2017 NHL Playoffs Thread [Archived] Hockey • Page 141

Lebrun was defending his statement by saying he was talking about cup wins which still makes no sense.

 

The media talks about Toews like he's the perfect hockey player and it is fucking nauseating. I don't even dislike him at all as a player, but it is ridiculous how saying anything remotely negative about him is sacrilegious.

 

he's one of us

 

He's the snacks of the NHL

 

Yeah just like last year with the Pens we're playing a team in the finals I really respect, so it won't hurt as much if we don't pull off the repeat. Although I wanna see it in my life time ( I was too young to appreciate it the first time with the Pens) and I'm pretty sure after this core team is done I won't have that chance again.

 

My dad sent me a picture from when I was about 10 or so wearing a Preds shirt. My aunt lives down there and sent it to me for Christmas one year. Funny.

 

I agree with that. Don't throw around dead animals to support a hockey team

 

I only throw waffles to show my support

 

Did I miss something about catfish or animals or whatever?

 

Yeah what's the catfish thing? I know the red wings fans used to throw octopus or something?

 

That's horrible, octopus are amazing creatures

 

Preds fans throw catfish onto the ice at home games.

 

Dumb, who thought of such a ridiculous and pointless action?

 

Wings fans still throw octopi.
My friend did it at the last game at the joe

 

Rednecks. But, at least it is essentially the state fish.

 

Throwing hats is cool, throwing animals.. not so much.

 

Genuinely don't know why it's still tolerated. Has nobody stopped and thought about how fucked it is? Throw a fake version if you have to

 

I like Florida's tradition of rat throwing

 

I think it's cool too...because they're plastic.

 

Yeah I don't understand why it's still a thing that happens and I would prefer it if they would stop doing it

 

If you're gonna throw an animal, at least throw a cat. They always land on their feet, ergo, no harm done.

Compromise.

 

Plus, the first 8 times you kill it, it'll just come back to life again

 

So the refs have to kill each cat 9 times? Or you just get to reuse them 9 times? Just wanted some clarification. Thanks!

 

Someone threw a dead mallard on the ice at one of the Preds-Ducks games. Feathers and everything. I almost threw up when I saw it.
