GDT: Biggest Game Of The Year (Birds that don't fly vs Canes)

[CandyCanes]

Keys to victory:

- Put Malkin, Crosby, and Kessel in handcuffs

- Tickle Jarry the goalie so much that you make him laugh uncontrollably that he can't make a Faulking save

- Whom ever the Canes goalie is tonight needs to not suck aka make a lot of Faulking saves

- Jeff Skinner needs to stop being a gosh dang slouch and score some freaking goals.

Let's keep the positive "1st goal" trend with Saarela getting one tonight.

As expected, Ward will be in net

 

[A Star is Burns]

Looks like Saarela will sit unless Jordan doesn't play. I know it's only twice, and Wallmark did get in the next game, but I'm getting mildly annoyed by calling up a prospect just to sit him. I guess it's better to have the good player like Saarela if needed, but if they are pretty sure Jordan will play, call up someone that sucks like Brown.

Probably helps to have them get in a practice or two with the team

Also, it is a nice financial reward for the guys on 2-way contracts...extra cash for the days spent sitting on an NHL bench.

Also, keeps us from freaking out that Brown got the call-up instead of a shinier toy.

 

[A Star is Burns]

Those are valid enough, and hence I'm only mildly annoyed.

These games are actually pretty important now. Staal is probably a game time decision, I'd hate to have to rely on Brown as the replacement if Staal is a no go. We need to ice the best roster we possibly can every night, if Staals out hopefully Saarela is the answer.

 

[A Star is Burns]

Also true, but there are other guys I'd personally not mind sitting to play Saarela in that scenario, but that's a slightly different discussion.

 

[Breakdowns]

Please win vs Pens and keep them out of the playoffs

And play Saarela instead of PDG- let us see what he can do!

 

[A Star is Burns]

That's one of the guys I wouldn't mind Saarela playing in front of. I get going with the safe guy you know. But I wouldn't mind trying to catch lightning in a bottle with what seems to be a more talented player.

Is Saarela more talented than PDG? Asking for a friend.

Well we would like to find out.

 

[A Star is Burns]

Is Saarela more talented than PDG? Asking for a friend.

Seems like he might be. At the very least, I'm thinking he might be able to luck into more than the 1 point PDG has up here this year.

team win game

 

[Stickpucker]

Team didn't shave due to being in norf and needed more hairs to keeps warm...this is 100% loss...next time look in mirror.

Someone send playaz shaving kreme to put on chin.

 

[Wolfpuck]

I will never not root against Team Rutherford.

 

[CanesUltimate11]

What happened with Staal? Sick or day to day with an injury?

 

[Wild Caniac]

WE win gaem

How tf is this teme in a play0ff spof.

 

[HisIceness]

Please just f***ing win, please.

 

[Canes]

Win and we keep our last wild card spot.

I think we all know how this story goes.
