Hawerchuk Posted January 2, 2012 Report Posted January 2, 2012 Great goal by Richards. I wish we would have went after him. No way, Leino is better! :)
neverenough Posted January 2, 2012 Report Posted January 2, 2012 No way, Leino is better! :) hahahahahaha yeah what a passer he is.
Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted January 2, 2012 Report Posted January 2, 2012 Love the jerseys. Bettman: "We really need some flashy uniforms that will showcase the NHL under the stadium lights...what say you?" Exec Yes-man: "How about Traffic Cone Orange and Prostate Discharge White?" Bettman: "Perfect!"
darksabre Posted January 2, 2012 Author Report Posted January 2, 2012 These refs tried very hard to give Philly this game in the 3rd. Unbelievably weird calls.
deluca67 Posted January 2, 2012 Report Posted January 2, 2012 Both teams uniforms look great. Big save on the penalty shot.
darksabre Posted January 2, 2012 Author Report Posted January 2, 2012 And the Flyers always gracious in defeat :rolleyes:
Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted January 2, 2012 Report Posted January 2, 2012 These refs tried very hard to give Philly this game in the 3rd. Unbelievably weird calls. I'm glad that didn't go in or else I'd smell shootout rig for national TV.
bunomatic Posted January 2, 2012 Report Posted January 2, 2012 Great game. Great weather. Seemed to be Great atmosphere. I have to say an overall success. Cool game to watch.
wjag Posted January 2, 2012 Report Posted January 2, 2012 Oh Danny... you're no Sidney. Could have used that goal in both my fantasy leagues.. We still say Dannnyy Brierrrrree!! everytime he touches the puck. Man can play behind the goal.
Hawerchuk Posted January 2, 2012 Report Posted January 2, 2012 Wow. What a finish. Boring first period but after that it was a good game. Mike Rupp first star? Who would've thought that? Briere with a penalty shot with 19 sec left.... Stoned by Lundquist. Nice win by the Rangers ( even though I hate them too). Don't want to see Philly in anymore winter classics for awhile. Get two new teams next year.
darksabre Posted January 2, 2012 Author Report Posted January 2, 2012 I'm glad that didn't go in or else I'd smell shootout rig for national TV. The thought definitely occurred to me. The Rangers are a good hockey team. I don't think we beat them if we make the playoffs in our current state.
Eleven Posted January 3, 2012 Report Posted January 3, 2012 These refs tried very hard to give Philly this game in the 3rd. Unbelievably weird calls. Callahan was screwed. Not sure what led to the penalty shot, either.
darksabre Posted January 3, 2012 Author Report Posted January 3, 2012 Callahan was screwed. Not sure what led to the penalty shot, either. They seemed to decide that the Rangers player covered the puck with his hand in the crease, but as far as I could tell it was his thigh that covered the puck. Nothing decisive but apparently the refs decided after deliberation that a penalty shot was in order. It was sketchy.

Nothing decisive but apparently the refs decided after deliberation that a penalty shot was in order. It was sketchy. I'm pretty sure that a player can't cover the puck with anything in the crease. It was a good call and luckily didn't effect the outcome of the game. After the first period, it was a pretty good game. I love the Classic.

Based on this years games, I'd like to see St. Louis and Detroit at Comerica Park. Or maybe Minnesota/Colorado in St. Paul. Bring it back up to colder climes.
inkman Posted January 3, 2012 Report Posted January 3, 2012 hahahahahaha yeah what a passer he is. You just can't take the puck away from him Didn't watch one minute of it and glad for it. Too much good football to watch.
Cereal Posted January 3, 2012 Report Posted January 3, 2012 I like the Roots and everything, but this intermission show is just bleh. Fortunately I have Michigan State vs. Georgia in 3OT right now. Crazy bowl game. Haha yeah I put the Classic on DVR so I could watch the end of that game. Glad to see Mich. St. win it! Way to botch the Canadian anthem Fiona... And Patti hacks up the US Anthem Patti was awful, didn't expect that. Rose Bowl just had sweet anthem played by the band and perfect timing with a stealth fighter going over. I've been watching too much football to check in the WC yet....now I will Some great games this past week. Baylor in the shootout vs. Washington? Just saw end of Wisconsin losing to Oregon. Too bad, Wisconsin is an easy school to like. On to the Fiesta, although I'm not too interested in the teams. Gotta save some energy for my Hokies tomorrow. :thumbsup: I'm glad that didn't go in or else I'd smell shootout rig for national TV. The Delay of Game or whatever it was for McDonagh covering the puck in the crease was a good call. The Callahan "embellishment" call was total bull. Callahan clearly saying to the ref in the slow-mo replay: "WHAT? NO F---ING WAY!!" Rig crossed my mind, too. :lol:

The game isn't too great so far, though.

Who Else? Posted January 3, 2012 Report Posted January 3, 2012 3-2 Rangers. I hate the Flyers more so I hope NY wins. Anybody else not like Doc Emerick? He drives me crazy he's so annoying. I'm with you on Emerick. The only person worse is the dolt sitting next to him. Those two ruin Hockey for me. I wish there were a way to mute these clowns and still here the game play like on an EA Sports game Instead I just refuse to watch. Join the Revolt.

If anyone plays video games and has real time rosters.....how did they pronounce Szczechura?
Eleven Posted January 3, 2012 Report Posted January 3, 2012 If anyone plays video games and has real time rosters.....how did they pronounce Szczechura? They have play-by-play announcers in video games now? Holy sh&t! I may need to check into this. On the other hand, if the button sequences were too difficult for me to learn 12 years ago, it's probably worse now.
