1/9 - B's @ Sens

[timlinin8th]

Sorry it took so long but my day went awry but the gamethread is here... I was at the last game against Ottawa and that worked out well. Marchy's back so hopefully that gives a boost to the Road Warriors.

 

[TFP]

2 points tonight would be huge.

 

[timlinin8th]

Its really too bad McQuaid is out, I was hoping to see Chris Neil get his face punched in for the eyerake.

 

[McDrew]

Keep the momentum from last night.
With Marchand back, any speculation on lines?

 

[cshea]

Interesting lineup choice for Clode tonight. Marchand's back. Who sits? I'd hope Shithead, but Clode may choose to keep him in due to the potential fisticuffs. They are already without McQuaid.

 

[TFP]

Shithead sits.

 

[cshea]

Connolly too. I'm OK with that. Randell is obviously only there in case things get ugly.

 

[timlinin8th]

Shithead sits.

Ferraro and Randell can both throw, if Ottawa decides to start gooning it up again.

 

[cshea]

I think my no-injury lineup would be

Marchand - Bergeron - Pastrnak
Beleskey - Krejci - Eriksson
Vatrano - Spooner - Connolly
Ferraro - Kemppainen - Hayes

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Nice little knee there by Borowiecki on Vatrano

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Talbot laughing in Neil's face is pretty great

 

[timlinin8th]

Refs are letting a lot of stuff slide so far, seen a few potential penalties go by. Have a feeling this game is going to get awfully chippy later.

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Past couple of weeks, Spooner has been absolutely flying on the backcheck. He's learning how to pick his spots real nicely

 

[cshea]

Marchand is ridiculous

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Yeah I have no idea how he both kept that puck in & managed the self-pass


...is the Jordan's guy trying to seduce me?

More interference by Ceci impeding Ferraro, no call

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Refs calling absolutely nothing. Can already predict a ticky-tack call against Boston as the first PP.

 

[cshea]

Karlsson is amazing

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Karlsson is unbelievable. Blocks the shot in the slot and headmans the rush

 

[McDrew]

"I had some statistics back to my room. They were hot." - Jack Edwards

 

[cshea]

Norris #3 coming soon for him.

 

[McDrew]

Past couple of weeks, Spooner has been absolutely flying on the backcheck. He's learning how to pick his spots real nicely

I think last game Jack said that he was at his season high in games played already. Spooner is progressing the more regular play he gets. I'm happy if he ends up being the regular 3C behind Krecji and Bergeron.

 

[cshea]

Maybe show some replay's here? Maybe?

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Way to go guys

 

[PedroSpecialK]

That entire fucking sequence started with Kevan Miller unable to make a 10' pass to Krug. Unbelievable

 

[PedroSpecialK]

How did Hayes not tuck that in

 

[cshea]

Woof

 

[cshea]

Checked in to Coach's Corner here during intermission. So far Grapes has confused Brad Richards for Brad Boyes and then they did a Panthers segment and he treated us to a classic, Lalongo.

Edit: Gudbranson turned into Gudbudskin

 

[PedroSpecialK]

PASTRNAK

 

[cshea]

PASTRNAK

 

[FelixMantilla]

PASTA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Jordu]

Hey, welcome back, Pasta.

 

[Nomar813]

Pasta!

 

[Eddie Jurak]

Boris!!!!

 

[PedroSpecialK]

C'mon Hayes you can't take that penalty

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Oh WTF he didn't even break the stick!

 

[cshea]

What an absolutely awful call.

 

[PedroSpecialK]

5 on 3, for a bit, 2 dmen without sticks

 

[cshea]

B's have been good this period at even strength.

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Impotent pinch by K Miller

 

[cshea]

Eh, not playing well at ES anymore.

[PedroSpecialK]

Nice shot to Karlsson's grill by Beleskey

 

[Dropkick Izzy]

That was pretty sweet.

 

[teddykgb]

Did Beleskey even cross check him? Looked like it live but then didn't see stick contact on replay

 

[FelixMantilla]

Why is Kevan Miller on the ice on a four on four?

 

[teddykgb]

Why is Kevan Miller on the ice on a four on four?

This is a fantastic question. I'm not sure it has an answer.

 

[Reardon's Beard]

37 and 63 are good.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Karlsson is always on the ice.

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Ryan got his own stick in the gut

edit: yikes not his stick, just slams in there

 

[teddykgb]

Ugh. Weird how he went in so defenseless.
