DuMaurier !

Curses... 2-1 on a goal by Kessel.

[Huckleberry]

well im off to bed, work tomorrow.

[biodork]

Makarov :worthy:

 

End of the 2nd, still 2-1 Sabres. No update yet on Kaleta's condition. Wish I could watch the third... good game!

[SwampD]

I like the Pete Rose Commercial.

Can we talk about how ready Ristolainen is for the NHL? Dude is great.

Absolutely.

Oh ya he's a regular full time now. Question is how long will it be until he's a top pairing guy?

October 9?

[darksabre]

Kadri taking a stiff jolt from Meszaros makes that signing worthwhile. I hate Kadri.

 

Also Stewart has been very good in the preseason.

Shat ! Kessel

[Brawndo]

Was Kessel on the Twinkie Diet Plan this Offseason?

Him and Nikita

He's always looked like a fat middle Earth troll to me.

 

For the second time in two games the idiot announcers are calling for a penalty when there shouldn't be one. How far out from the boards are you not allowed to touch a player? Fifty feet from the way these two geniuses are talking.

[I am Defecting]

Makarov save on Knee Lander, and Bow Sack.

 

Grigorenko for Captain!

[Randall Flagg]

I love me some Griggy

[I am Defecting]

Armia for the tie... yes!

[...]

Grigorenko is a lock for the big club; I'm saying it now.

[Weave]

Grigorenko is starting to look like he is, in fact, between Reinhart and that last top 9 roster spot. Looked very much like he belonged today.

[I am Defecting]

Got in late. Who did we injure?

Every talking head in Toronto.

[biodork]

Too bad they couldn't catch up with Hammy and Nolan after the game. Guess we'll have to wait until tomorrow for an update on Kaleta and Larsson.

I read on twitter that they are waiting on X-rays for Kaleta, and Larsson may have a concussion.

My game notes:

 

- it seemed like they were trying to get a good look at Griggy, Armia and Deslauriers.

 

- Griggy looked much improved. Much quicker and more involved. Still think he should start in Rochester but I feel better about him long term.

 

- Armia showed some signs of life but he still has a good way to go.

 

- I did not like what I saw from Hodgson. All of his passes seemed off the mark. If he can't create offense with his passing then he doesn't have much to offer.

 

- Makarov seemed to rebound well from getting shelled in Traverse City.

 

- the Toronto crowd seemed pretty lively for a preseason game.

You did see hodgson's saucer pass to Grigs for the goal right?
