Just trying to make Eliot Friedman proud.

Game tonight, no one had a thread, and I’m usually good for a start a year.

I’m going to a HS playoff game from 7-9, looking forward to having more hockey when I come home. Who will be in the house? PSK- you still on the road?

 

[cshea]

Swayman in. Don't think any other changes are in the fold.

Marchand - Bergeron - DeBrusk
Hall - Haula - Pastrnak
Frederic - Coyle - Smith
Foligno - Nosek - Froden

Reilly - McAvoy
Grzelyck - Carlo
Forbort - Clifton

Swayman

A friend of mine offered me pretty good seats to this one, but we had to bail on our Vegas trip, dammit.

Last time I was out there, we caught them playing Calgary. The presentation really is unlike anything I've seen in hockey, or any sport. Factor in our typically excessive pregaming and it was quite a day, even though we'd dropped way too much money on the Flames and Fleury shut them out.

I was really looking forward to rocking my Cheevers sweater tonight. I guess I still can at home - Go B's!

 

[durandal1707]

They finally tossed Cooper for mouthing off to the refs? That's new.

Let's go B's.

 

[durandal1707]

Forbort touches puck, immediate turnover. Some things never change.

 

[cshea]

Messier and Chelios talking about Hall playing center. He hasn’t played a single second as a center ancestor he has been here.

 

[durandal1707]

Shoot the puck, Jake.

 

[BostonFanInCanesLand]

That was an…interesting choice to drop pass there. Convert on the PP here boys.

 

[Salem's Lot]

Is this Messier doing color? He’s painful to listen to.

 

[Maximus]

SHOOT THE PUCK

 

[The Napkin]

I miss Brick

 

[Ferm Sheller]

YES!!!

 

[Salem's Lot]

SMITTY!

 

[cshea]

SMITTY

 

[Jordu]

Smith! Good for him.

 

[Maximus]

SMITTY

 

[BostonFanInCanesLand]

Yes Smith! Hope that gets him streaking.

 

[durandal1707]

Smith!

 

[Scoops Bolling]

Is this Messier doing color? He’s painful to listen to.

He's been pretty bad in studio too.

 

[patinorange]

Holy shit. These color guys are really bad.

 

[Salem's Lot]

Mark Howe didn’t play 1000 NHL games?

Edit: I guess not. 929 NHL games according to hockey reference.

 

[Bergs]

Watching with music instead of TV audio. This has been wildly entertaining for the last few minutes.

 

[durandal1707]

Got kinda sloppy toward the end there, but good period.

 

[durandal1707]

Awful penalty Haula.

 

[patinorange]

Holy shit

 

[Scoops Bolling]

Fucking A, Swaydaddy is feeling it!

 

[durandal1707]

SWAYMAN

 

[Salem's Lot]

Holy crap Swayman robbed him.

 

[MuzzyField]

Mark Howe didn’t play 1000 NHL games?

Edit: I guess not. 929 NHL games according to hockey reference.

How long was he out when he had his goal stabbing? His injury did make the game safer.

 

[Cotillion]

Swayman!!!

 

[Jordu]

Whoa. What a save.

 

[Salem's Lot]

Of course it was Forbort that got turned like an orange traffic cone that lead to Swayman having to bail his should be in the AHL ass out.

 

[Salem's Lot]

How long was he out when he had his goal stabbing? His injury did make the game safer.

I literally know zero about Mark Howe’s career. I just knew Gordie Hose’s kid made the hall, so I assumed he played 1000 games.

 

[durandal1707]

Can we stop the blue line turnovers pls

 

[BostonFanInCanesLand]

Just wow.

 

[Salem's Lot]

My last four posts in this thread were meant for the game thread. My apologies, can a mod please move them?

 

[Salem's Lot]

Absolutely robbed him.

 

[Salem's Lot]

Good goaltending on both sides tonight.

 

[Ferm Sheller]

YES!!!

 

[Salem's Lot]

SMITTY!!

 

[Jordu]

Smitty ON FIRE.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Smith x 2

 

[durandal1707]

Smith again!

 

[Cotillion]

Well played!!

 

[Bergs]

This team might not suck.

 

[BostonFanInCanesLand]

Yay Smith! Nice look by Coyle.

 

[Maximus]

SMITTY!

 

[Salem's Lot]

That could be a nice line in the playoffs. Especially if they can upgrade the number 2 center spot.

 

[durandal1707]

Goal aside, only 27% xGF so far in the second.

 

[BostonFanInCanesLand]

That could be a nice line in the playoffs. Especially if they can upgrade the number 2 center spot.

I’m all for upgrading 2C. I’m not sure if this 3rd line improves if you replace Frederic with Haula.
