M.E. 262

The Oilers definatley made the proper adjustments for game# 3. The first period was hard to watch, as it was all Oilers. They outplayed the Sharks and deserved to win. However, the Sharks almost stole the win! I am looking forward to tonight. I predict the Sharks in a blow out. (At least that is what I am hoping for!)

The national anthem in the "Full Monty"....um, no thanks! [:$] I am quite certain you meant "Mountie"! [] Come on Picky, being right across the river from Canada, you should know the nickname for Mountie.

LOL, you are correct and a good referee. The great thing about hockey is the passion and intensity. After all of that, most gentlemen and good sports will turn it off after the battle and shake hands. Dale W., my hand is extended. No worries bro .... I think you may have got the wrong idea from my first remarks ... see what i said was " Mac T is old school so you'll likly see " then i gave an example that you took to heart as my meaning , not the example it was intended to show . Mac T is from the old oiler days when gretsky was protected by Dave Semenko ( who btw is now a talent scout for the oilers ) and then marty mcsorley & jeff bookaboom and several other tough guys ..... Mac T still differenciates between tough guys and goal scores , it's a system not all teams can use as some are not made up in that manner . We sat george on the first game because the caoching staff thought it was going to be a high flying fast skating wide open game .. not a checking fest ... bringing george in the second game did little as he's sat for so long his game legs are gone and heads not into the series ... here in lyes the problem of having a goon on your bench . My seats are 8 rows up behind the players box so i'll hoist my glass of beer to you after the singing of your national anthyum at tonights game ... she's going to be a noisy one as any NHL commentator will tell you edmonton is the loudest building in the league Cheers to you also. 8th row, great seats! When I lived in Detroit (1990-2002) I had 4 seats, 7th row on the blue line. Nothing like live play-off hockey. Speaking of national anthyum, I enjoy the "Monty" who does the anthyums in Ottowa. Who does it in Edmonton?

Dale W.: We can compare hockey playing and coaching resumes in private if you like. Besides it has nothing to do with our conversation. Your original message and I paraphrase went something like "send him (LaRaque) out there to hurt Thornton." If you meant hurt as in with a good clean hit, no problem. Good clean hard hitting is an integral part of the game. If you meant hurt as in "Bertuzzi" him, shame on you and any of your coaching colleagues who teach that bush-league cheap-shot style of play. That style of play is what ruins this great game. By the way, it looked like McClaren got the best of LaRaque. Did you see him all keeled over sucking some heavy wind on the bench after McClaren put a nice clean hip-check on him? You have to admit, Torres blind-sided dirty forearm chuck to Michalek's head was B.S.. I agree, San Jose will prevail, Edmonton is on a slippery slope (No Oiler pun intended)after last night. But what a game for a 2-1 score.

1. " I don't think edmonton expected the physical game they got last night.........." They should have been watching film, an agressive forecheck and backcheck has been their game all year! In addition, their "finesse" forwards are not one-dimensional, they can score and hit. 2. " .....we'll see big black george suit up next game and there will be a few warnings given out about hitting the finesse players or george will run thorton and hurt him......" You had the nerve previously to post you knew hockey? Name one dirty hit last night. If your "finesse" players can't take the heat, they best stay out of the kitchen. San Jose can take it as much as dishing it out and do it with discipline. The Sharks were the third least penalized team in the regular season, obviously they are not out head hunting like "big black george."

The Sharks did their part, get those Dead-Wings going so they can play each other for the Western Finals.

Rochester

Finally, what they realy all play for................................

"The Maurice ("The Rocket") Richard"..............

The "Art Ross"................................

Oh, that is easy, so the Sharks could have the most powerfull 1-2 punch down the middle with Thornton and Marleau. (By the way, they were both picked overall 1 and 2 in the 1997 draft.) The Bruins did get 2 very good (Stuart and Sturm) and 1 pretty good player (Primeau) in return, that being said, it was still the steal of the century. It was made official today that Thornton won the "Art Ross" and Cheechoo won the "Maurice Richard" (Most total points and goals respectively for you non/part-time hockey fans.) Lastly, just to show you how much Boston fans should be utterly disgusted, Thornton is the first player ever to be traded mid-season and go on to win the "Art Ross".

Do you know your way to San Jose, La-La-La-La, La-La, La- La..................... The Dead-Wings won't get past San Jose, La-La -La.......La-La ..... In 2006 "The Cup" comes through San Jose, La-La-La-La-La..... "The Cup" will runneth over in San Jose. La-La-La-La, La-La, La-La......... Chorus: The Dead-Wing's Can't Get paste San Jose, La-La-La-La,..... La-La,........ La-La It' that time of year for some trash talking!

Sorry Klipsch, go for the HSU Research VTF-3 MK2. Per Robert Deutsch, "Stereophile Guide to Home Theater", ..........the response stayed flat between 20 and 26 Hz, with no indication of rolloff at 20 Hz, ..................

Thanks for the info., I am a Heresy guy anyway.

Sorry for the misinformation and that someone else already posted it! Heck, offer him $1K, he wants to get rid of them.

Another one I ran across this morning............. http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/ele/148543551.html Too bad I wasn't in the market for more!

Just happened to come across these this morning, seems like a good deal? http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/ele/148947820.html Good luck.

That's preposterous! People don't document changes that they make to a car when they make a hot-rod out of it! It's EXACTLY the same thing with Heritage speakers![] DM I doubt my little old Heresy can be turned into a Hot-Rod. Besides, it is pretty obvious when you buy stock/original versus a hot rod.

Bob: Sorry, no I didn't.

For the future integrity of the Klipsch legacy, speaker tweakers (you know who you are) should document all changes made to stock speakers. In addition, those documented changes should be affixed inside of the speaker cabinet for a permanent record. If not, you are defeating the purpose of people trying to "match" speakers in a system. I am the original owner of a pair of 1984 Heresy speakers and this past summer traded some equipment for a 3rd 1984 Heresy . In pursuing this 3rd 1984 Heresy, I wanted 3 identical and matching speakers across the front. As it turns out, they were not identical. In the process of swapping out the original 2.0 uF mylar caps with 2.0 uF GE motor run caps (Supplied by BEC, thank you Bob.), I discovered by chance some changes made to the 3rd Heresy. Someone had swapped out (re soldered) the position of 2 wires coming off of the T2A in the E2 crossover network. (By the way, out of curiosity what would that do or what changes can be made by doing such wire swapping?) Although sonically I do not know whether or not there was a difference, out of principle I rewired the network to its original configuration. The seller had also swapped out the original speaker wire termination strip with a banana plug set-up. That was an obvious change, but the disappointing part of the change was that the connection from the banana plug terminals to the crossover was spliced by the means of bare wires twisted to spade connectors and fastened with "scotch tape". I did my part by fixing the splice and affixing a dated note to the inside of the cabinets detailing the original caps and when the new caps were installed.

Bump I know they are only RS-3 speakers, but no help?

.."On Your Feet Or On Your Knees", please welcome from New York City, "The Amazing BLUE OYSTER CULT"!

Considering the context and the upcoming March 17th celebration, shouldn't it be Corn-Beefy!

Any need to swap out stock or upgrade crossover components on a set of 1999 era RS-3's? If so, what components and/or recommendations? FYI, if it matters, I run 3 1984 era Heresys across the front, RS-3 surrounds and a pretty beefy HSU Research VTF-3 MK2 Subwoofer in my 5.1 system. As far as bass management, I let the HSU take care of business by setting all 5 speakers to small and using the 80 Hz crossover setting through the AVR. Thank you for your input. P.S.: Isn't it great the NHL is back!
