Post-Game Talk (GBU): #65 The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly - Ristolainen, Finnish for Extinguisher?

I'm glad that they're more creative than the traditional just add "-sie" to the end of the players name.

O'Reillysie, Deslauriesie, Larssie. I don't know, they have a ring to them

Foligno has been absolutely killing it lately. (Moose-y?) And not just the points. He's noticeable all over the ice.

The best part of the game was the Sportsnet announcers and production compared to MSG. They were gushing about Eichel, Risto and Reinhart all game. I especially enjoyed the 2nd intermission when they were trying to describe Eichel's skating style and Armstrong said it would be impossible for him (meaning Armstrong) to get around the ice with any speed if he was skating in that style, while his partner mentioned that it was very Mahovlich and the style made it near impossible for a defensemen to properly read his speed.

Now I enjoy Duff and May during the intermissions but they don't step out of the box and talk about opposing players in any kind of depth.

Big M is the guy I've been saying he looks like. And I remember him catching hell from people thinking he wasn't going all out because of how it looked, rather than how fast he really was.

Its crazy talk like that, that shows our age

Yeah. Leaf fans often thought he was lazy but he had that straight up stiff legged gait that propelled him very well. Eichel does not have his shot but he is more skilled in many ways.
