Chicago can really hang a licking on.

**Asher** · November 20, 2009, 01:56

And to think Hossa isn't even playing.

IIRC I predicted this year a couple years back for Chicago to win the cup on this forum, when -Jrabbit asked at one point.

They are more likely than most to come out of the West, except for that persnickity issue of goaltending.

**Asher** · November 20, 2009, 02:08

Huet's numbers in the past 10 games or so have been great, no?

**notyoueither** · November 20, 2009, 02:11

He is doing well now. He did OK last year for a time before Khabibulin took over for the playoffs, IIRC.

I can confirm that.

I believe the context was the need for playoff experience with the young hotshots etc. IIRC it was more "2 yrs is the soonest it could happen" as opposed to an actual prediction the Hawks would win this year specifically.

Which is good, since the Hawks have Hossa now, which seemingly dooms them to losing in the Finals.

That is so ****ing gay.

what is it if someone 100-nil's themselves?

Asher is a twitter tw@t. In fact I'm sure he is a twitter ****ter which is even worse. Hell, I'm rooting against the flames for no other purpose then because Asher like them. That's just the reaction any normal person would have.

I'm just amazed that Q Cubed managed to get involved.

**Q Classic** · November 20, 2009, 10:00

Oh, Asher

So, I was at a bar, right? Talking to one of my many friends who are girls. There was a cheer, and we looked up, confused. Then we saw the screen. It was like, what, 5-1?

I still don't know which team was which, I just know one was dressed in white and one was dressed in red.

**Q Classic** · November 20, 2009, 10:02

I sorta favored the red team, because red is the color of fortune, and white the color of death.

So, rest assured, Asher, at least I was rooting for your team. Since it makes more sense for the Flames to be clad in fireman red.

**Q Classic** · November 20, 2009, 10:08

Wait, why are we talking about the finals already? I thought the season just started? And is there some sort of rivalry between Calgary and Chicago?

I mean, I've never been to Calgary, but it seems nice. And "the Flames" sounds, well, pretty gay.

It sounds gay cause we imported the name from Atlanta.

There's no real rivalry between Chicago and Calgary. If Chicago didn't spank Calgary regularly the past couple years, I'm pretty sure it'd be most people's 2nd favourite team in the city.

It just happens sometimes in sports. You'll have teams that have your number. Chicago is one of them.

And yeah, the season's only 25% over.

It was a celebration of Kaner's 21st birthday.
