Randle is right about Buff.....Heart and Soul of your team.  You will miss him the most come playoff time, assumning you make the playoffs.

Wrong, totally and completely wrong.  Buff was nowhere near the heart and soul of the team.  That would be #19, without question.  Anyone thinking otherwise is kidding themselves.  Toews is an elite, special player who brings FAR more to the table than what shows up on the scoresheet.  Buff can only dream of being such a player.

And we will make the playoffs.  Too bad only nickhead had the balls to back up his mouth and take my bet.

Hawks blow a 2-0 lead in the 3rd to a team they have far more talent than in Nashville.  No effort at all in the 3rd and Sharp blows an easy goal on a breakaway in OT.  At least we got 1 pt out of it.

1-0-1 now........1 game over .500 (3 points in 2 games)

 Let Muddy play make beleive Juskay..we can all have a few drinks and laugh at the futility..HaHa...any thread with Napolean as their front man is destined for failure ..

besides we wont see Muddy for another 10 years..he is one of those fair weather fans..only shows up when his team is a cup contenteder ..eerily similiar to Oilers fans..

plus Andru will resurface as a Habs fan..funny we never heard of Napolean until a year ago?  same time as the Hawks were cup favorites?..Canuck fans are true fans win or lose..these guys are a joke ,just like Godmike who has a 2nd favorite in the Penguins?  its laughable..we might as well have a going away party for Muddy and Andru..we wont hear  from them for 10 yrs .. atleast Holer and Nickhead have some integrity..

 wow big man betting the cup champ make the playoffs?...haha are you serious.?..they wont ...but the fact Muddy threw that bet out there is a complete joke..really?  enough said..if he didnt give 10-1 odds ? speaks volumes of the prosthetic gonads he straps on every morninig..i cant even comment any further...LAME

 struggling to stay at .500 and too stubborn to admit they miss Bufyglien? the guy has singlehandedly  resurrected Atlanta but no..us Hawks fans dont miss him...we have the guy who sh!t kicks  77 yr old cabbies and gets his rocks off  on another guys a$$...lose our best team guy ? but if Napolean, our import North of the Border says we are better...damn it we are!...Napolean is our leader ..he knows it all...like he has proven over the last year with his impressive stats pack..that the forums have had beaten into them by Napoleans  persistent  offensive...we are the greatest team ...even if we miss the playoffs and disappear for 10 years we are the best and there is a reason we wont post for 10 years...it is a travesty that the Hawks dont make the playoffs again for 10 yrs and as a protest our leader Andru Koresh has put us on silent mode...we will not post again until we can hitch onto another team about to win a cup..like we did with the Hawks..

I agree 100% with Randle.....

You know what randle? Your comments are the equivalent of a white man saying that it's ok to make racists remarks towards black people just because he's dating a black woman. Complete ignorance, especially when you clearly see that it's offensive to some people. Maybe you should have been born American, because you're a hell of alot more like them than you are Canadian. I'm not on any soapbox. I'm not even French Canadian. The difference between you and me randle is that I have enough class to treat others with respect, whether it be on a forum or in person.

As for my "knowing it all", please show me where I said that? I told you that the Hawks were the best team and would win it all last season because, as a hockey fan, that's what I believed. I picked the Canucks to finish first in the West this season because, as a hockey fan, that's what I believed. I picked Sweden to win the World Junior Tournament this year, because that's what I believed. I was wrong.

Unlike you I have no problems admitting when I'm wrong, or when I make mistakes. It takes far more "gonads" to admit one's shortcomings than to simply attack anyone who doesn't share your opinions, something we've never seen you do on here. It seems one of us IS on a perpetual soapbox randle, it's just not me.

The two of you can't possibly be this thin-skinned are you? randle is coming heavy with the trash talk and so is juskay.  Nothing any different than they have done for the last 8 years.  What you can't handle is the fact they are now attacking your team rather than the Flames.  This is what Vancouver fans do.  Welcome to my world.  Andru, if this gets to you so easily here, you wouldn't last 5 minutes in the baseball forum.  It's filled with 100 randles all waiting to pick at your bones like a flock of vultures. There is no "posting with honour" here.  You try and follow some sort of morality code and you immediately make yourselves a target.  Muddy, I'm surprised at you, after taking all the crap you do about the Cubs in the other forum and handling it just fine, why are you getting so defensive in here?  You know randle's game and have seen it a hundred times before.  Would you let Mikey get under your skin so easily?  It's really no different.

Don't lump all Vancouver fans together. I like trash talk but not to that extent.
