inkman Posted April 22, 2015 Report Posted April 22, 2015 Yes, I meant Backstrom. I turned on the game just after the goal was scored unintentionally and they had Ovechkin celebrating in ISO on the screen. I should really refrain but haven't you done this before. In lieu of the facts, just try to report something because you want to be first. Maybe you should wait 5-10 seconds until you know. Just sayin' Quote
Claude Balls Posted April 22, 2015 Report Posted April 22, 2015 Calgary has a pretty impressive young group of guys. Monahan, Bennett, Johnny hockey, and the nastiness of Ferland. They should have a pretty strong core group for awhile. I now also know why Bieksa pounded Ferland at the end of the last game. He definitely doesn't shy away from contact....even when it's the opposing goalie in his way. Quote
Wyldnwoody44 Posted April 22, 2015 Report Posted April 22, 2015 Ok I sound like an idiot for asking this, but who is Johnny hockey in Calgary? Quote
WildCard Posted April 22, 2015 Report Posted April 22, 2015 Ok I sound like an idiot for asking this, but who is Johnny hockey in Calgary? Johnny Gaudreau. Very fast rookie who had a great season for them http://www.nhl.com/ice/player.htm?id=8476346 Quote
Wyldnwoody44 Posted April 22, 2015 Report Posted April 22, 2015 Johnny Gaudreau. Very fast rookie who had a great season for them http://www.nhl.com/ice/player.htm?id=8476346 Aha thank you. Hobey Baker award winner but went 104th overall?? ... 64 pts is not bad for a rookie season. Cmon Devine ;) Quote
... Posted April 22, 2015 Report Posted April 22, 2015 Wow, great hockey. I hope we have many years of this stuff coming our way soon. This series needs to go seven. Two skill teams anchored by hot goalies. Darling and Rinne staring each other down. Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted April 22, 2015 Report Posted April 22, 2015 I was actually going to go to sleep at a reasonable hour tonight. Nope. Quote
bunomatic Posted April 22, 2015 Report Posted April 22, 2015 Obviously. I think Buffalo is the only arena that sings the Canadian anthem every game. Sabres have many fans from across the border. This is the game I was most looking forward to watching tonight and the ###### Caps/Isles are in OT so I'm missing g it. Do you have Center Ice? Sorry I'm late to get back. No center ice for me. Sportsnet on now to catch the o.t. Chitown/Nashville. Its either sportsnet or cbc for me. Calgary takes a 3-1 lead in the series and seem to be getting stronger as this series goes. Blocking tons of shots. Van just doesn't seem to have an answer but they are usually tough at home so...? Quote
... Posted April 22, 2015 Report Posted April 22, 2015 OMG, so much time invested in this game and it's so good...must watch... Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted April 22, 2015 Report Posted April 22, 2015 OMG, so much time invested in this game and it's so good...must watch... I wasn't able to start watching until OT. And now I'm completely mesmerized. I couldn't imagine being a fan of either of those teams with some of those firewagon sequences. Quote
... Posted April 22, 2015 Report Posted April 22, 2015 Periods 1 & 2 were better, I think, in terms of skill and attack from both teams. Nashville having the edge in the first. Darling kept Chicago in this game, but now I would say it's a true draw. Hence we're in double OT. Quote
GrassValleyGreg Posted April 22, 2015 Report Posted April 22, 2015 Goose laying body on the line. A nice guy to have on Line 3 and a necessary component to a playoff run. Quote
... Posted April 22, 2015 Report Posted April 22, 2015 Chicago's playoff experience has been invaluable to them as the game has worn on. Absolutely no panic in the Hawk's game. Quote
Brawndo Posted April 22, 2015 Report Posted April 22, 2015 Chicago wins in triple OT, yeah I was already asleep Quote
darksabre Posted April 22, 2015 Report Posted April 22, 2015 I'm amazed by the Calgary series. I really didn't think they had it in em. Quote
Stoner Posted April 22, 2015 Report Posted April 22, 2015 Given the last two seasons, how about: They played that occasionally during 2010-11 when the Sabres were coming out of their atrocious start. It works, as a goal song, end of game song, and the rhythmic beats could be used to signal a power play or to get the crowd fired up when the Sabres have the momentum. You play it consistently and eventually it gets into everyone's head, especially the opponents. That's what the arena is really missing. Some smart psychological programming. Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted April 22, 2015 Report Posted April 22, 2015 I'm amazed by the Calgary series. I really didn't think they had it in em. It's more about what Vancouver doesn't have than what Calgary has :p Quote
Drunkard Posted April 22, 2015 Report Posted April 22, 2015 Given the last two seasons, how about: This would be a great choice. The intro is upbeat and once we start playing well it will definitely fit the team. The only downside is that it takes almost 45 seconds to get into the first chorus so they'd either have to chop it or only use it during longer stoppages in play. All that being said it could definitely work and I don't think it's being used by anyone else which could make it uniquely ours. Quote
inkman Posted April 22, 2015 Report Posted April 22, 2015 It's more about what Vancouver doesn't have than what Calgary has :p Dammit they have Kassian, or at least the concept of Kassian. Quote
MattPie Posted April 22, 2015 Report Posted April 22, 2015 Dammit they have Kassian, or at least the concept of Kassian. I looked at the boxscore, and didn't see his name as a sakter. Clearly he must be injured. Quote
That Aud Smell Posted April 22, 2015 Report Posted April 22, 2015 Dammit they have Kassian, or at least the concept of Kassian. Still a little proud of that. Quote
LGR4GM Posted April 22, 2015 Report Posted April 22, 2015 of course NBC has their "A" team for the Pens v Rangers game. well I guess I will suffer some doc emerick Quote
