Sorry to say that due to the Code being a little vague, and as a result my being admonished for something I wouldn't interpret as a violation, that I'll be popping off again until there's some sort of loosening of these restrictions.
Good luck to all, and if I don't see you again before the playoffs
I've got to put my 2 cents in. If you're losing a poster with 1200 plus posts, maybe we have to acknowledge that something is not right here. I haven't had any of my threads or posts deleted, but I have to admit that I'm not a big fan of heavy handed moderation.

I suggest those who don't know what's up read the threads Everyone PLEASE read this.... and kevin sucks to get a better idea. I explain the reason in both - if you want to banter back and forth about a mutual dislike, do that through your personal email. People do not want to read about that kind of thing. When they google a habs chat site, they aren't trying to find a debate over who's fault it was that member X doesn't post anymore. I explained in more detail to those involved and will not explain further in a public post. I understand that adhering to a new set of standards will take some time to get used to. The spirit of the rules are what's important.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, OVER moderating will kill a forum faster than anything you're trying to protect us from. Maybe a 10 second delay on the trigger finger is in order!
I'm a pretty religious poster around here (as in I read nearly every post) and I didn't see anything remotely offensive by anyone. I will say again, in agreement with And-o and brooklyn, et al.... Moderators would do best to avoid deleting posts unless there is absolutely no doubt it is necessary.
I don't get it either, Nil and McGirl....but then that's nothing new for me. This coming from someone who ..... has to have things explained more than once.
I love that self-deprecating humour, Mrs. H! That means................. oh, you got it?!
OK...................
Isn't it fun when we win all the time?!

Oh Yeah! I'm a happy girl....isn't that a song? Kind of like, "Don't worry, be happy"?
What is truly disappointing is that I was just about to post my new Avator with me in my habs thong sipping on a Captain Morgamn and Coke, but now feel I best not..oh well go habbers..your loss!

How about you put up a partial picture - say from the eyebrows up............
Barry, do you feel Huet was screened on that weak goal? I can't quite figure out if the defenseman (Souray?) was in the way or not........ either way, I'll certainly forgive him that one!

I'm not Barry, but I'll respond. It lookes as though Souray was (partially, at least) screening the shot -- which was a left-handed shot from the right wing. Although Huet had to worry more about the far-side than if a right-handed shot was coming down the wing, it seems as though he missed the angle on the short-side. The shot wasn't particularly difficult, and if Huet had been well-positioned (as he typically is), then the puck would have hit his pad.

Actually I felt it was a combination of things..he seemed to be cheating a little bit and looking for a pass and Shelly's ass seemed to be partially blocking his sight line. As a goalie, it is really how you recover from a weak goal that makes you good..and Huet certainly does that. The guy is unflappable.

Uhoh, now you're in for it...talking thongs and hockey are not in the spirit of this thread...could a closing be far behind
