Buffalo Fan Posted March 8, 2010 Report Posted March 8, 2010 Saw my first game with Torres last night on MSG. He worked his arse off. Diving to knock pucks out of the defensive zone, hitting everything near him, hussling back on defense and charging the net. I really enjoyed watching him. I wish he could play every shift. It will be ashame when he walks away.
inkman Posted March 8, 2010 Report Posted March 8, 2010 I admire his hustle but he needs some time to adjust. I don't remember other new players seem as lost as he is but his play is suffering due to unfamiliarity. Let's hope it's sooner rather than later.
gregkash Posted March 8, 2010 Report Posted March 8, 2010 no ###### but Torres has to be the ugliest player I have ever seen.
Eleven Posted March 8, 2010 Report Posted March 8, 2010 no ###### but Torres has to be the ugliest player I have ever seen. Worse than Ovie? Mike Ricci?
shrader Posted March 8, 2010 Report Posted March 8, 2010 no ###### but Torres has to be the ugliest player I have ever seen. Mike. Ricci. Or we could go a little more current and go with Dan Carcillo. Torres isn't even in the same galaxy as their fuglyness. They're ugly ugly.
Taro T Posted March 8, 2010 Report Posted March 8, 2010 Mike. Ricci. Or we could go a little more current and go with Dan Carcillo. Torres isn't even in the same galaxy as their fuglyness. They're ugly ugly. Ricci? Hands down it has to be Camelface Brind'amour.
MattPie Posted March 8, 2010 Report Posted March 8, 2010 I didn't see the first period of the Rangers game, but I didn't notice much from Torres in the second and third. To the point where I thought, 'hey, I haven't heard Torres' name called'. Granted I was watching the NYR feed, and the 'other' team's broadcasters generally don't use names as much as their own team's.
Eleven Posted March 8, 2010 Report Posted March 8, 2010 Mike. Ricci. Or we could go a little more current and go with Dan Carcillo. Torres isn't even in the same galaxy as their fuglyness. They're ugly ugly. Carcillo's greasiness adds to his ugliness and makes him a legit candidate. Hairless wookie Brind'Amour has to be in the conversation too, like Taro pointed out.
Buffalo Fan Posted March 8, 2010 Author Report Posted March 8, 2010 Ricci? Hands down it has to be Camelface Brind'amour. Yeah Brind'amour has met the frying pan on more than one occaision.

Speaking of the broadcasts, basically the Rangers broadcast booth had control of the cameras...during stopages, it was as if Rick and Harry had no idea what replays were being played. It really was annoying...adds to the small-town complex.

Hairless wookie Brind'Amour has to be in the conversation too, like Taro pointed out. The funniest part was that during Colorado's glory days, Ricci was voted as one of Denver's most eligible bachelors. To this day I still have no idea if it was a joke or not.

To this day I still have no idea if it was a joke or not. You think a lot of women wouldn't overlook that to date/marry a professional athlete?

gregkash Posted March 8, 2010 Report Posted March 8, 2010 that has "slight touch of the downs" written all over it. although i just google image searched mike ricci and dear lord. I wont post a picture out of respect to the TOS and not posting offensive ######
inkman Posted March 8, 2010 Report Posted March 8, 2010 While googling (my new favorite word) Torres, I cam across this:
shrader Posted March 8, 2010 Report Posted March 8, 2010 Doesn't "eligible" imply not taken? Having been beaten severely w/ the ugly stick would tend to make him more "eligible", right? Yeah, but those lists usually turn into some sort of beauty contest. If you wanted a true list of the most eligible, you'd wind up with a bunch of inkmans, d4rksabres, and the true version of spndnchz that old man ###### likes to post pictures of from time to time. edit: Ok, the vulgarity filter officially has to go. The abbreviation of Pennsylvania gets censored?
spndnchz Posted March 8, 2010 Report Posted March 8, 2010 P.A. had to go, if not for just a little, while. B-)
Two or less Posted March 8, 2010 Report Posted March 8, 2010 no ###### but Torres has to be the ugliest player I have ever seen. Oh come on, uglier then Olli Jokinen? Now thats harsh. In all seriousness, i have loved Torres so far with the Sabres and it's only been 2 games. Every single thing he said in an interview with TSN on deadline day, Rob Ray prior to the game vs. Philly and to the Buffalo News, has come true (well, except for goal scoring but its only been 2 games). He never quits on a play, he goes to the net, he fights in the corners, he finishes off checks and he has incredible hustle. If this dude didn't have a massive man-love for Toronto, i would buy his jersey next.
Stoner Posted March 8, 2010 Report Posted March 8, 2010 Yeah, but those lists usually turn into some sort of beauty contest.

darksabre Posted March 8, 2010 Report Posted March 8, 2010 Yeah, but those lists usually turn into some sort of beauty contest.

elcrusho Posted March 8, 2010 Report Posted March 8, 2010 Doesn't Torres look like Darth Vader with his mask off at the end of 'Return of The Jedi' Right.......
wjag Posted March 8, 2010 Report Posted March 8, 2010 I really like his play in the corners. He has 19 goals, so he must have some touch. That dive to knock the puck out of the zone looked, how do it say it, olympian..
shrader Posted March 8, 2010 Report Posted March 8, 2010 ###### is filtered out? That's hilarious. Now try to come up with a reason why. Crosby hate is the only thing I can come up with.
Eleven Posted March 8, 2010 Report Posted March 8, 2010 Now try to come up with a reason why. Crosby hate is the only thing I can come up with. There is that entire team at the other end of the state, too.
SwampD Posted March 8, 2010 Report Posted March 8, 2010 There is that entire team at the other end of the state, too. Do you really have to go looking past this board?
