Umm, what? I want the live arena experience when watching the game. Booing is part of the live event. I'm not sure why you'd have a problem of the broadcast simply relating reality.

Another sign of the joy being had downtown, it was obvious the turned down the crowds mics on the broadcast. So cowardly.

You're probably right. The thing is, he has to know he has to overpay to get any type of quality player to come here. They have the $, pull the trigger and ignore the noise. I mean, really, what GM with ***** cares about what the media thinks? Lol. I know Don Sweeney doesn't. Adams just did the impossible and made things worse. The palm 🌴 comment will haunt him forever.

Most of us remember a time when a scheduled GM press conference/media availability held tremendous weight and anticipation. If it doesn't include talk of selling the team, which it won't, I couldn't care less.

Dunleavy is not good but perfect for this team. Everyone here knows what I mean. His fundamental approach is wrong and that's where the problems start. He thinks he should pick out the high points of the action, squeeze in usless info, and banter with Ray. In actuality, his job is to CALL THE GAME. The game has no feel of an NHL event. Even in RJ's last year, he brought through that energy that made it feel a Tuesday against Columbus was bigger than it was. That's an entertainer. DD pacing sucks and his total ineptitude in play description is appalling. Anyone listening on radio is screwed. I know Ray is beloved. Fine. Enjoy him at an alumni function. He adds nothing to the broadcast except the obvious and bro-talk. Embarrassing. Just like the team.

Fits into the cowardly state on all levels. Pathetic.

That was exactly my experience last night. Had to help a neighbor unexpectedly. Left the house right after the 4th goal. Got busy and saw 4-1. I literally thought to myself " last year they'd blow this. Maybe Lindy will prevent a collapse. " But in my heart, I knew. Looked at the phone 4-4, and walked in to see the winner. Like your son, I laughed too.

Time to flip to Oilers-Leafs. I've seen this movie many times.

Amen to this. Had a few errands to run during the 2nd. As usual with Dunleavy, I had no idea what was going on. Ray and his rambling just added to the confusion. It sounded like two guys talking at home who happened to be watching the game. Idk what it is about Duff. He was really good when he started and now it seems like he's playing a character. His creepy smile is unsettling too.

Some very good and unfortunately familiar points. I honestly would rather be San Jose right now.

Finally. Thank you. This franchise never ceases to amaze me. Ray is a horrible broadcaster. Not a bit of insight to be had. Nothing but banal generalizations. Dunleavy IS the perfect partner. If you're going to be terrible at something, you might as well go all the way.

Ray lol. Rewarded for mediocrity. Bulldog next?

Baseball game is a tight one.

Love it. X-mas lights around the holidays would be cool too.

That is a really nice touch. Looks great.

The red carpet? Lol. They should take the service entrance until they prove they can win at home.

Two people are dead. Give the semantics a rest.

Competitive eating. Absolutely disgusting when people in our own country,let alone the world, can't afford to feed themselves and their families.

Yeah, that's probably the case. Sad but unavoidable. As far as FA's go, they'll have to really over pay. That's what a decade + of losing and ineptitude does. I don't want to hear KA complain. They did this to themselves.

Unreal

It really does seem like a Buffalo type collapse. At least it's not us this time.

Ouch!

In all the years I've watched hockey, I have never seen a series swing like this. Oilers are flying and Florida looks like the Sabres on a Tuesday in November at Columbus.

So, the NHL shouldnt promote its best player? He's winning the Conn Smythe, win or lose. His last two games have been amazing. If he's anywhere close to that in 6, and possibly 7, how can you not showcase that? He's been great for the game and will continue to be. We are witnessing an all-time player. Forget about the noise and sit back and enjoy it.

Looks like Cousins in for Okposo for game 6. I'm curious what the board thinks of Kyle's play in the Final. I don't think he's been very good. The effort is there, but he's way too slow. Not to mention he's been on the ice for some big goals against, and doesn't make very intelligent decisions with and without the puck Maurice is probably pretty unhappy with his play. I mean, he's willing to put a time bomb like Cousins in. I'm sure Cousins will get a talking to about not going over the line. The last thing they need to do is give the Oilers gifted PP's.
