Answer 1

Heck yea couldnt anwer this question last night because i was level 1 and ran out of questions... The section always slows down a bit in the off season but then there are just a lot of historical questions and rumar mill stuff..



1. What would you do to improve this category?



Have the IP adress mointored and not allow for more then 2 or 3 users max per ip address or take away the right to vote/thumb/report for an IP address with more then 2 or 3 active accounts and if the reporting process was not so thin skinned .



2. What would you do to improve the NHL?



Lie detector test and public apologies for susspeision of diving..



3. What do you think the biggest trade will be this summer?



Im hoping that it is not richards but it looks like he or carter will be a steal for someone



4. WILL Nick Lidstrom stay or go?



Stay they already lost one veteran...



5. If you got a new red pontoon boat would you mess it up putting stickers of the logo of your favorite team on it?



I am probably one of the only 26 year olds that would really enjoy a pontoon boat and yes if it were the right shade of gree i would get some water prood decals for it!



6. What is the farthest you have traveled to see an NHL game? I guess the met center when i was a kid might be further from my house when i lived there then dallas is now..





Extra Inquiry: Why does Christina Aguilera think the red lipstick looks good and do YOU think it looks good.



You have to be classicly beautiful to look good with bright red lips also it really works with the pin up girl look.. and yea i like it..

Answer 2

Hello, Please don't hurt me



1. What would you do to improve this category?

Have an Nhl'er ask a question once a week



2. What would you do to improve the NHL?

Im happy with the way it is currently....hmmm cheaper beer at the arena :o)



3. What do you think the biggest trade will be this summer?

I don't know...Maybe Brad Richards getting traded somewhere ? These things always surprise me.



4. WILL Nick Lidstrom stay or go?

I hope he stays a couple more seasons. It will definatly take some getting used to when he's gone.



5. If you got a new red pontoon boat would you mess it up putting stickers of the logo of your favorite team on it?

LOL, uh well I don't put stickers on my car so...probably not. Be nice to have a boat though.



6. What is the farthest you have traveled to see an NHL game?

Within city limits...but Ive seen games in Vancouver, Calgary, Winnipeg, Toronto and Montreal. I lived in all these cities.



Extra Inquiry: Why does Christina Aguilera think the red lipstick looks good and do YOU think it looks good.

I can't stand red lipstick, I think i looks waxy lol...I like lip gloss better ...and Im not a big fan of CA I don't think she's attractive, im more of a meerkat type :O) heheh



*When the season is over I always look forward to draft day*

I love playing fantasy hockey on yahoo but I get really disapointed when thats over (finishes right before the playoffs start) its a really good way to get to know players and stats. So I go through double withdrawl....Enjoy the finals !

Answer 3

1. I like it here. It's clique at times, but for the most part I enjoy the answers and conversation.



2. Put a team in Winnipeg! Oh, wait! :)



3. The Flyers need to get a goalie, and Detroit needs some youth.



4. Lidstrom will be back for 1 more year.



5. No. I got a new car last year, and I refuse to put stickers on this one. But car magnets are another thing entirely. :)



6. 1500 to see a Canucks game 2 years ago. Not specifically to see them, but I was going out West anyway, so what the heck.



7. I kind of think it looks trampy when it's overdone like the Aguilera machine does.

Answer 4

We can always watch NHL highlights at NHL.com. It may not be as good as the actual game but at least it's something.



To improve the category I would probably ban angry comments and swearing.



To improve the NHL I would ban fighting and biting. LOL



The biggest trade, in my opinion anyways, will be Jonathan Toews to the Winnipeg Jets! LOL imagine that.



Nick Lidstrom is kinda old and should retire. It is his choice though. I will give him credit for being a good player and staying in the league this long. I think he might retire.



I would put Hab logos all over it!



Unfortunately, I've never seen a live hockey game:(



c'mon, what does this have to do with hockey? LOL whatev, I'll answer it anyways! I HATE RED LIPSTICK ON ANYONE! She probably thinks it looks good though.





Yay! No more threats!

Answer 5

Number 1 is a little confusing so i will start with number 2

2.Recruit more players from different places

3.No because every body is happy on what team they are on.

4.Stay for like 2 more years

5Yeah

6. The farthest i have went to see was i live in new jersey and went to ohio

I dont know the answer to the last 1

Answer 6

Why am I being threatened?



1. Get rid of those rogue field hockey questions that filter in once in a while. And loose the trolls, of course.



2. Get rid of the stupid mascots. No hockey team needs a guy in a costume running around.



3. Hopefully some great goalie coming to the Blues.



4. I hope he'll go. I am still waiting for the day Detroit is at the back of the pack.



5. I would never buy a boat in the first place, for one, I'm broke, for two, I can't swim, so you wouldn't catch me dead on a boat.



6. Just the Blues, here in town.



Extra: I always thought she looked like a fake mannequin. Kind of creepy. She doesn't look like a real, live person.



And why are you threatening me again?

Answer 7

Well, the finals, then the awards, then the draft - then trades, cap talk, then preseason.



1. the same "questions" can only be asked once a week



2. raise glass, remove one ref, do away with stancheons, ban composite sticks too.

The NHL should not have former players in the war room. EVER. (It's like a former baseball player umping from behind the plate.)



3. hard to say



4. should go



5. sure



6. 1 hour on a plane



EI: why does any female wear lipstick??

Answer 8

it'll be tough to survive without hockey for that long. lucky for us, we get to keep track of whatever goes on in the off season--hopefully there are some interesting trades and whatnot.



1. remove certain accounts from posting nonsense, reporting, and thumbs-downing obsessively...



2. not sure, i think it's fine the way it is. :)



3. i can't even begin to guess, but i'm excited to find out.



4. i think he'll stay for now, but it could go either way.



5. well it's already red, so go for it! i think you'll love it more that way.



6. this is kind of lame, but a little over an hour. i wish i could give a more badass answer than that.



EI* i don't know, it doesn't look good.



nice threat, haha.

Answer 9

1. Get more Answer Tolerance when it comes to Askers with basic questions. We don't think you are smart just because you call someone asking the question an idiot.



2. OT - OT - OT. Get rid of the shoot out and that extra point for a tie when there aren't any ties in the game.



4. He's gone



5. Yes



6. Farthest? Consider that the closest NHL game to me is 5 hours away. And I go.The furthest with full NHL game intent was 2,100 km's to LA. But I cheated and went to TWO NHL games.



BQ: Because red is traditional. You wouldn't expect her to be traditional, and think she then appears a bit unpredictable. Yes, it does, red lipstick is proven to be sexy, and it is.

Answer 10

1.] Y!A improve a category? Lol.

2.] There really needs to be some consistency as far as headshots go. Some hits are clean and others deserve suspensions? (see: Matt Cooke suspension vs. Crosby hit)

3.] Not sure

4.] Stay

5.] It's going to get messed up anyway, why not personalize it?

6.] I have never actually seen an NHL game, to my knowledge (I might have seen one when I was really little). This needs to change.



She's totally just copying off of Marilyn Monroe. She should really just give it up. I hate that sh*t.

Answer 11

1) Y!A policy doesn't permit an answer to this question.

2) Get rid of the instigator rule and get rid of composite sticks

3) Magic 8-ball says two of Zach Parise, Joe Thornton, a top-15 starting goaltender and Shea Weber find new homes via trades.

4) One more year.

5) No. I'd end up sinking it.

6) From Toronto several of us made the trek to Phoenix to see the Leafs lose. Had a fun time in Arizona (of what we remember).



EI: No comment.

Answer 12

EI: Yes, I do think red lip stick looks good.....just not on Christina Aguilera.

Answer 13

1. Let Pat know 100% I did not do ANYTHING. It's so annoying



2. So sick of every hit being under the microscope......but with Shanny taking over next year hopefully that will be a good thing :)



3. To me Hudler on the next bus to NO WHERE lol



4. Oh yes. He better

6. Just to downtown Detroit, so like 15 minutes away
