Kendrick 4,741 Posted June 26, 2016 Author Share Posted June 26, 2016 Called a rouge @flyersfan1493. It was around before the NFL even started. Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/31670-2016-2017-nhl-discussion/page/2/#findComment-353280 Share on other sites More sharing options...
FacePuncher 1,343 Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 That just seems so odd. I mean hey you missed, but at least you kicked the ball, so here's a point. also wtf kind of name is the redblacks?

Smarch 3,157 Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 (edited) It's actually the REDBLACKS, supposed to be like soccer teams apparently. Also the NFL use to award one point as well on kickoffs that went through the uprights Edited June 26, 2016 by Smarch Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/31670-2016-2017-nhl-discussion/page/2/#findComment-353303 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kendrick 4,741 Posted June 26, 2016 Author Share Posted June 26, 2016 Also that 1 point doesn't automatically get awarded unless the team on defense downs in in the end zone or the kick goes through the back of the end zone. You can return a missed field goal and the kicking team won't get a point.

I do not understand the mentality that people that so and so cannot win a Cup. If Shawn Thornton can win multiple Cups than anybody can win in the right environment.

Yeah I don't get it either, it's silly to think that X player 'isn't clutch' when it's such a small sample size, just like how David Price and Clayton Kershaw 'aren't clutch' because of 5-6 bad starts when they have 30+ every season. But I do think the Caps have had a large enough sample size that it's worth wondering if they need to change something Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/31670-2016-2017-nhl-discussion/page/2/#findComment-353709 Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Shawn Thornton can win multiple Cups than anybody can win in the right environment. My thinking was about the teams mentality and structure, not the player. It's like if I said the Vikings go solely through Adrian Peterson they will never win, because you need a balance. Also it's easier for a 4th liner to be a champ because he can literally sign a contract every 2nd season and not be tied down like a franchise player.

The link the guy posted on fb was to the blog Russian Machine Never Breaks, which is Caps in general (although with more frequent content toward the Russian players) and the guy was all upset about losing Latta for some reason. Then I thought about what a non-breaking machine could do, and my mind went on a tangent leading to the concept of a machine that designs and produces cups, as opposed to a machine that does anything else, which would be the Caps. Decided even though it didn't have a direct tie to a thing here (which honestly, if I'm posting something, it's not always going to have a context) that I would take the opportunity to jab at the Caps while the Pens were the champs. That's not always going to be the case, so I'll take the opportunity while I can.
