GDT: Game #2: Wild @ Canes - 6PM CT / 2AM Finland - FS-N

[Lapa]

“Boys, supper!”
It became the nightly routine in the Staal household.
The sun would set into a cold, dark Thunder Bay, Ontario, evening, and Linda Staal would call for her four boys — Eric, Marc, Jordan and Jared — to quit playing hockey on the outdoor rink husband Henry built and come inside their warm, toasty house.
“Every night,” Linda Staal said.
The Staal Bros. would always disregard Mom’s repeated calls for grub, so she’d ultimately turn out the exterior lights.
“We’d eventually come in when she’d call for us … but never the first time,” Wild veteran Eric Staal said, smiling at the distant memory.

I'm happy the game is on Fox Sports. I'm not really a fan of NBC's intermission show.

 

[W75]

Yay, hockey!

 

[NHL1674]

No Parise....now no Granlund. Oh boy.

 

[jackouu]

What happened to granny?

 

[W75]

Noooooooo, Granny injured.

Quick someone dig up that main board thread about his offseason ankle injury!

 

[Wabit]

So they are going with 11 FWDs and 7 d-men. So Suter ends up with 33 mins ToI tonight?

 

[FVM]

Granny

 

[TaLoN]

Quick someone dig up that main board thread about his offseason ankle injury!

Apparently he was hurt in a practice earlier this week.



Edit: had to hurry up and edit my prediction...

 

[Lapa]

Oh god.. Please show up today so I don't have to go back to sleep too soon

 

[W75]

Staals are 1-1, but Finns 3-1 for the red team.

 

[TommieNation]

Oh, Darling is in Carolina. The beginning of the year is always fun when you forget some of the offseason moves

 

[TommieNation]

So no shot count on FSN this year I guess. I liked that

 

[W75]

Wild are a step or two behind.. Also, quietish GDT?

 

[Lapa]

Powerplay!

 

[TommieNation]

ZUCKER! Great pass by Dumba

 

[Lapa]

Nice! Zucker!!

 

[W75]

Wow, pretty!

 

[Wild11MN]

Great pass there!

 

[melinko]

Anyone else feel like Suter intentionally delays his passes on the PP?

 

[Lapa]

Reilly has really improved from last season. More confidence and looks faster.

 

[DC4MVP]

I strongly dislike the new score graphic for FSN.

Looks like some local access crap.

Damnit...tie contest.

 

[W75]

Something Khudobinish in Stalock's style? Like a small windmill.

 

[Minnesota]

Doesn't sound like our best start. Getting out-shot.
