Seriously, that is nothing to be proud of :evil:

With 150+ people injured, I do hope people come to sense of what is going on; I firmly believe that "real" fans would not storm out the gates after the game was over, and cause massive destruction.

With the end of the Stanley Cup quest, its time for Off-season moves, beginning with head coach hiring, draft pick, AND FREE agent signing.

I gotta say that the Wild took a bold move to hire Mike Yeo as the 3rd coach in team history - he has worked with many of the head coaches in the league, and guided the AHL Houston Aeros to the Calder Cup finals, but is he much better than the out-going Todd Richards?

People are stupid enough to post on facebook about their fucked up decisions. You might as well draw a map to your house for the police assholes.

By far, the biggest off-season moves is the entire Atlanta Thrashers team to Winnipeg, along with a name switch to the Jets (how could it not be the Jets?).

Yay!

Some cool concept logos around on the net:

Personally, I'd bring back one of the two already used Jets NHL logos.

If you guys can, get a Thrashers jersey before they go for high prices! This is the perfect time. I grabbed a men's medium for less than $18 after shipping on eBay.

The draft is coming up this week, and I do the Winnipeg team will announce their new team name along with the logo right after the BoG meeting today, right before the draft - don't wanna give a kid a blank jersey without anything on it, do'ya?

Apparently Bud Light > Coors Light.

As an ad guy, I'd totally pimp that number out. 136 Bud Lights vs. 2 Coors Lights.

*edit* I sent this tab to my Father and he responded with "200 some beers, champagne, wine, red bulls...and only 1 shot of Tequila? Almost 200k on the tab and one shot of Tequila? Bunch of Pussies."

-and he likes the Bruins. Hard to argue with the man though.

The draft is tom, hopefully Winnipeg will have a jersey with a logo, since they already announce their head coach.

Hockey Elitist wants to remind everyone that it's a sweater, not a jersey.
