Bruins v. Oilers on the day of the sinking of the USS Cairo aka the Ference Game

[Dan to Theo to Ben]

Was tempted to go with Bush v. Gore decision . . .
 
 
Andrew Ference is on the blue line, for the Oilers. A couple of weeks ago no one would have wanted him back, now, not so sure.

 

[SoxLegacy]

No, I think the reference to the USS Cairo was solid....would post a link but can't for some reason.

 

[McDrew]

The HMS Duchess was also sunk on December 12th

 

[Ferm Sheller]

Are we going to see Soderberg, Spoonman and Smith on the third line with Fraser skating with Bergeron and Marchand tonight?  I hope so.   

 

[SidelineCameras]

Jack's hair is sticking straight up.

 

[FelixMantilla]

Bruins have come out flying.

 

[FelixMantilla]

GERMAN POWER!

 

[Salem's Lot]

How the fuck did that go in?

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Alrightee

 

[Nomar813]

German engineering!

 

[SidelineCameras]

It took me 10 minutes to realize that the camera is behind the benches. Is this the only arena that films from this side?

 

[OttoC]

How soon before they start calling self passes, selfies?

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Ference looks strange in an Edmonton uniform

 

[Ed Hillel]

Ice looks like complete shit half way through the first. What's with that?

 

[The Napkin]

Does that make Seids the last with his first? Bart doesn't have one but he's only played 17 games so I'm not sure if that counts or not.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Very awkward camera shot.

 

[LogansDad]

Ice looks like complete shit half way through the first. What's with that?

Yeah it's weird, it looks like shit, but the puck is flying around it.

 

[FelixMantilla]

IGGY!

 

[LogansDad]

Nice!!!
 
Lucic has been in absolute beast mode all season... he basically made that goal happen starting in the defensive zone.

 

[SidelineCameras]

Iginla!

So....shots from the points are working this game. The 2011-12 power play would be working great here.

 

[Salem's Lot]

Never saw that.

 

[Nomar813]

Iggy bomb!

 

[FelixMantilla]

BALL O HATE!

 

[LogansDad]

Oh hell yes!
 
Keep the pressure on!

 

[Salem's Lot]

Wow these guys are really good at giving up goals.

 

[Nomar813]

Dubnyk must hate his job.

 

[The Napkin]

I don't think that was the gut, Jack...

 

[Ed Hillel]

Please just go get a stick.

 

[Haunted]

Edmonton might be better off going with 4 forwards, 2 defenseman and no goalies.

 

[LogansDad]

WTF, B's players even taking themselves out now?

 

[LogansDad]

Fuck, and Edmonton goal and trading Lucic for a 4th line POS.... not a great turn of events.

 

[FelixMantilla]

Gotta question that decision by Lucic. Let's see how both teams react.

 

[Nomar813]

Don't like the trade, but that's an awesome fight.

 

[mwonow]

Gazdik is a tough guy. Might not have been the best decision for Looch, but he handled himself well

 

[Salem's Lot]

That's why they needed to bring Robins up instead of Johnson. You don't want Lucic fighting the goons.

 

[PedroSpecialK]

As far as quality goes, that's the bout of the season so far. Can't believe Gazdic had the gaz (tee hee) to come back after Lucic had landed multiple head and body shots in the early going.

 

[mwonow]

I was a little surprised not to see Robbins too. Might be a change at some point - hopefully, not because Looch or Z hurts a hand on a helmet

 

[Nomar813]

Damnit, who put a real life goalie in Edmonton's net?

 

[mwonow]

Chad's not going to stick in the bigs if he can't control rebounds

 

[Manzivino]

Having Bobby Robins skate 2 minutes a period isn't going to stop Lucic from fighting when he decides he wants to. Much rather skate Johnson who is a better player and just refuse offers from goons.

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Chad's not going to stick in the bigs if he can't control rebounds

As goalies go, he's the king of BABIP. Very respectable save percentage, but he inspires almost zero  confidence.

"King of BABIP" - I like it!

 

[FelixMantilla]

Chad you stoopid fuck.

 

[LogansDad]

That was fucking awful. What was Johnson doing?
 
I hate second periods.

 

[The Napkin]

Where the hell was Johnson going there?

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

That was some sweet goaltending 

 

[Manzivino]

I miss Dubnyk

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

I liked the other goalie better

 

[FelixMantilla]

I didn't think the Bruins were that bad during the second period. The big difference was the goaltending. Theirs was good, ours was ......

 

[Red Right Ankle]

Basically, last period proves I was right to spend the whole Blue Jackets game heckling Johnson.
