Lol, another guy picks a fight with Namestnikov and learns that he'll kick your ass.

 

[DaBolts]

Names...Damn, I love this game. He was the LAST person I would expect. Way to go VLADDY!!!!!!!

 

[Stormbreaker]

Wonder who will take Vladdy's spot on the top line.

 

[These Are The Days]

It never ceases to amazes me the degree to which Kenny Hitchcock plays chicken shit trap hockey. This is why the dude will never win another Cup

See, for as fun as it was to watch him drop the gloves, Vladi + Bieksa off the ice for 5 minutes favors Dallas.

 

[Brie]

I hate it when our players fall hard against the net, brings up bad memories.

 

[Stormbreaker]

Nice hit by Kuch

 

[TropicalFruitGirl2]

When he played for the Bolts, Ben Bishop was known to agitate the opposing forwards a bit himself.....wonder if he will try to do that against his former team.
They know him to do that, so will they bite? Maybe some of the newer players will....

 

[Brie]

Nice play by Kuch...maybe if someone other than Girardi was the one to receive it something might have happened. G didn't do a terrible job with it though, just not much.

 

[TropicalFruitGirl2]

Atta boy, Hedman....Smith is a nobody...walk away from that.

 

[RDTBay4]

Are these refs just going to let Dallas thug us up the whole game? Several penalties have gone uncalled.

 

[xteesy]

I guess the Stars realize the only way to even remotely get under our skin is to try to play overly physical / cause a scrum on every. single. play.

Would be nice if any of the penalties were called...

 

[These Are The Days]

lmfao yet another poorly advised pinch by Sustr. The first freaking rule is to make sure that someone is on the ice backchecking in your place when you pinch in. Sweet mother of Jesus can we PLEASE get rid of this guy?

Singlehandedly caused a 3 on 1 because he had to go extra bold

We will see.
If they are gonna let Dallas play that way, they better let the Bolts play that way if they decide to turn up the heat with the hitting themselves.

tbf Gourde's pass went off the goal awkwardly, I don't ever wanna see that giraffe pinch regardless.

Honestly wasn't a bad pinch. Bad pass from behind the net.

 

[Brie]

Well deserved standing ovation for Bish...now let's make it a less than fun night for him for the rest of this.

 

[These Are The Days]

Honestly wasn't a bad pinch. Bad pass from behind the net.

Sure a bad pass but I'm more concerned why there was no one backing him up. If there's a breakdown in communication about the assignment then just don't do it. That 3 on 1 should have never happened. Someone should've been backchecking in Sustr's place.

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Long Live the Bish

 

[These Are The Days]

Jesus Dallas is just swarming down low in their zone. 4 guys at once chasing like cats after another in heat. I honestly think we could just set up at the blue line and cycle like a power play on these guys.

 

[JoVel]

Wow what a hit by Palat.

 

[Stormbreaker]

let's go pp!!!!!

 

[TropicalFruitGirl2]

Nice.

Palat with a bit of thuggery of his own, putting down Janmark...Radulov didn't like it and got caught retaliating.

 

[The Macho King]

Good play Palat.

 

[DFC]

UGH! My internet connection is too slow for NHL.com to work tonight. This is maddening.
