GDT: Colorado Avs @ Buffalo Sabres 12/3/24 --7 pm MSG

[...]

Yelp, they keep it together enough to maintain a strong lead through the second - a period they usually fall apart in and blow leads. Can they park the car? Can they land the plane? Can they get the girl?

[DarthEbriate]

Start PP2 for the beginning of the third. They move at least.

[Believer]

Still have almost a minute to end the PP drought.

That’s what that smell is? I assumed it was a corpse.

I like the play of Byram in this game. Bryson has turned out to be a much better player than I thought. 

[DarthEbriate]

All these commercials tell me 'tis the season...  to cast modesty aside and toot your own claxon.

Over the weekend, the Avalanche and Predators did a backup goalie swap of Annunen for Wedgewood.

Will the Sabres see Wedgewood make his Avalanche debut on Tuesday? The answer is yes, because he'll either get the start or he'll play after they chase Georgiev and his sparkling .875 sv%.

Avalanche woke up but we are maintaining. One more period, guys.

[DarthEbriate]

The Avalanche broadcasters stated that the PP timer does not display on the gargantuan new scoreboard. The audience doesn't know how much PP time is remaining for visitors? Is this real?

That was an "extra" that Terry drew the line on.

My wife has an event tonight where she works. She has been complaining about a dead mouse somewhere in the walls for about a week. I wonder if anyone else will smell it tonight. Hope her potpourri works.

The Concept of Time is an unknown (and EEE). This is how we win!

Wow.  Terrible start Boys.  Wake up!

Boo.

[DarthEbriate]

What an awful powerplay, leading immediately to an easy rush even-strength tap-in.

[Carmel Corn]

Our PP still sucks to high heaven....no answers, no strategy.  It's getting to the point that the objective is now to prevent a shortie against us.

At this point, just give up and play a standard 5 man unit and see what happens.

So who gave them sedatives during the intermission again?

[Believer]

Brutal PP.

Bring back the espresso machine.

[Believer]

On our heels.

Just awful.

These MFers!!!

Is anyone else annoyed by the first words out of Rayzer's mouth after a goal always being "Well, that's going to be (goal scorer's) (xth) goal of the season"

Every. Single. Time.

The equipment manager accidentally bought antihistamines vs. smelling salts

[Believer]

We need to score the next goal.

Tell ‘em Ruff!

Seriously. Do they have La Nova delivered between periods?
