Line Options: Pre-Prospect Camp Edition

I've been out of town the past week doing private stuff (that's none of your damn business and I'll thank you to stay out of my personal affairs), but while I was out I passed the time by doing what I usually do: writing up line combos. It's fun, it's easy, you can do it at home, at work or on the road! It's just like my other favorite hobby: masturbating.
You can do them yourself too, or with friends! (Again, just like masturbating.) To get you started, here are some forward ideas:
Ryan Smyth - Anze Kopitar - Justin Williams
Alexei Ponikarovsky -Michal Handzus - Wayne Simmonds
Scott Parse/Oscar Moller - Jarret Stoll - Dustin Brown
Rich Clune - Brad Richardson - Kevin Westgarth
or:
Smyth-Kopitar-Williams
Poni-Handzus-Meat Train
Stoll-Schenn/Loktionov-Brown
Clifford-Richardson-Westgarth/Clune
or, if you really wanna get nuts:
Poni-Kopitar-Williams
Smyth-Schenn/Loktionov-Brown
Richardson-Handzus-Meat Train
Clune-Stoll-Parse
And on defense:
Jack Johnson - Willie Mitchell
Thomas Hickey/Johan Fransson/Jacob Muzzin/Davis Drewiske - Matt Greene
or:
Mitchell-Doughty
Johnson-Scuderi
Hickey/Fransson/Muzzin/Drewiske-Greene
or (and this one's my favorite):
Johnson-Doughty
Mitchell-Greene
Hickey/Fransson/Muzzin-Scuderi
Go nuts! You can do the Sharks or Ducks too if you're lame and like those teams. The important thing is that you're wasting time at work, and really, isn't that what this is all about?

Beleskey – Chipchura – Lupul
Voros – Marchant – Parros
Visnovsky – Lydman
Sutton – Sbisa
Brookbank – Fowler

Bodie, perhaps.
And I’m not line-changing often enough — Parros and Voros show up like once every three games (Marchant at least gets some PK exposure).

i scored the shootout winner with marchant……i hoped they fixed that flaw in the new versions..i like realism
try vorus though..he seemed to work well for me

He’s playing a Pahlsson role for sure, though — that’s important.
And only -2 of that came from his time in Anaheim.

I expect we’ll lose a bevy of players here:
From the 2010 draft, defenseman Cam Fowler (first round, 12th overall), right wing Emerson Etem (first round, 29th overall) and right wing Devante Smith-Pelly (second round, 42nd overall) will make their first appearances at an Anaheim rookie tournament. They will be joined by three previous first-round selections, including center Peter Holland (15th overall in 2009), center Kyle Palmieri (26th overall in 2009) and defenseman Mark Mitera (19th overall in 2006). In addition, center Nick Bonino, who made his NHL debut with the Ducks last season, will be among 15 forwards on the 25-man roster.
Tournament runs September 12-16.

You’re a weird guy Ace.
There are only two seasons in Chicago; Hockey and Construction.
I watched that last week. It’s weird how if I saw that movie today I’d fucking hate it but since I saw it when I was 8 I can giggle like an idiot through the whole thing.
Maybe that’s true with Ace Ventura. But not with all 90s Jim Carrey movies. I’m pretty sure if Dumb & Dumber came out today I’d like it.

I think it is pretty sad, but I’m not really sure what got him to quit — the Twitter backlash he got, or the half-dozen MSM/Puck-Daddy stories that appeared in the immediate wake of it.
Lesson for hockey players: Want to make an ass of yourself publicly? Don’t do it during the slowest most boring offseason in recorded history. Nobody has ANYTHING to write about.

fuck this is a slow ass off season. I am really looking forward to the webcasted rookie tourney that starts this sunday.
"There is no gravity son, the world just sucks." - my father.
Hey, look! Some mystery dude has provided Ducks fans with a list of “5” prospects to watch out for in this tournament — how nice and thoughtful of him.
Then, strangely, that very same person e-mailed me with the message, “Fuck the Ducks, I hate writing about them.” Who could it be?

A nice offseason story about Teemu’s golf game, with this fun gem at the end:
When our conversation momentarily shifted to hockey, I asked Selanne about the recent report in a Finnish newspaper in which he said this season, his 18th in the NHL, definitely would be his last.
“I think this is the fourth or fifth year in a row I’ve said that,” he said, laughing. “That (mental) approach works well for me, because I want to leave it all on the ice. But nobody’s going to believe me anymore, are they?”
He laughed again.
“Even my wife said, ’I’m not going to ask you (about retirement) anymore,’” he said.

I think we need an exorcism of our own. Maybe you can ask Meg how to do one for you, Rudy. His ritual might even involve lotion and tissues.

And yet, I don’t think they’ve even shot half their load of body fluid anecdotes.
Speaking of awkward liquids, I just got this email from “The NHL Arena” (this is what I get for voting in a poll for Earl):
The Roll Call Cup was devised 4 seasons ago as a way to get our hockey fans’ out of their offseason comas and get their team-colored juices flowing as we lead into the regular season…

Oh, it’s completely necessary. We’d all die without commas, probably.
"Ridin’ The Meat Train & Dreaming of Jack’s Johnson All Summer Long!"
http://www.battleofcali.com/
until someone tells us the comma is no longer necessary like the 2nd space after the period.
Hey Foxy, would you call that a doh-si-doh or a dipsy doodle?
It came as quite a shock when I learned that the comma before an “and” is considered no longer necessary. grr.
Let's go Ducks.
I still put it in … then remember I have to remove it. Who changes these rules and don’t inform those who have gone thru school already?

The comma one (the awesomely named serial comma) is optional, and both uses are acceptable. Unlike the double spacing after a period, which is clearly obsolete.

That’s why I’m going to convert to the triple-space.
