GDT: Rico'll Be Home For Christmas: Ducks @ Devils, 7 PM, MSG+

[Emperoreddy]

Even after this win(and Bratt's goal), I'm still not a fan of breaking up that line.

Well Hynes figured it out since he put them back together in the third.

 

[Comparison Ford]

omg

this is incredible. shows how tight the team is.

 

[Emperoreddy]

I think it's time to roll out a doge meme GDT soon

After Xmas. Seasons greetings has us on a roll

My company holiday party was tonight and I had to attend...

I’ll never forgot 2012 when he wouldn’t stop gushing over Henrique being a good old Ontario boy, while the next breath just raining fire down on the evil Russian Kovy.

Cracked me the **** up

He also called Zubrus soft or referred to something he did as soft, back in the SCF that year.

And ironically enough, Kovalchuk was who he referred to as ''One of the Russian's I like'' when he ''Retired'' the next year. I always thought back to how much he got on him just a year earlier in the SCF.

our sellouts arent really sellouts.... they have pulled back on our capacity. 16,514 is our new sellout..... 93.7% full. gotta create demand tho so i get it.

So what do they do when they get a true packed house like on opening day these season? Just roll the overage onto the next game?

 

[Bleedred]

Love it.

WOWe.

 

[Darkauron]

omg LOL

Did you get drunk at least?

He looked alright at times tonight, not sure how to feel about him anymore. There's times where he just looks really off and the possession stats are very out of the ordinary for him. I actually think Boyle (even without the points) and Coleman have been much better than him. It's early, so 16 or 17 games (or whatever it's been) is not large enough to say he isn't good anymore and this is the end.

I am very happy that Hynes has refrained from re-inserting him with Hall.

Idk, I am very happy that in a situation like tonight for example, with 3-3 and 10 left to go, you have Zajac shutting down Getzlaf.

I don't even know if this is by design or luck anymore, but this forward corps is just really freaking well balanced right now.

I never saw his take on what he thought of us picking Nico over Patrick.

He didn't mention Hischier specifically, but he went on a rant about lack of Canadians picked after the draft.

Every time I see a "doge" dog on the street during the offseason it makes me miss hockey.

I was really surprised to see that. They might have a chance of getting a decent sellout streak going. I'd the rest of this home stand to sellout since the have some marquee opponents and the holiday break.

7 sellouts on the season in 16 games. We had 4 straight in November and could easily sellout the next 4. Thursday is a guarantee, the Christmas Eve Eve game should be a sellout, and the Christmas Break games always do great.

dunno what they are up to. i just know that 16514 is what we are capped at the last two months and they have hit it for a bunch of games. my opinion is that they are trying to create demand by holding those extra tickets and they are smart to do that. hopefully it'll get bumped back up soon if demand is there.

 

[Better Call Sal]

omg

This warms my heart.

 

[R8Devs]

How Don Cherry of him. God Cherry is going to hate us if we make the playoffs. All Americans and Euros.

and Hall might as well be european for how much the canadian media hates him lol

 

[Bleedred]

When are they going to roll Cherry into a nursing home?

He's been old since I've been a little kid.

Being American, I didn't have the exposure to him that Canadian's had with him. I don't think he was ever on ESPN.

I always thought he was like the Canadian Archie Bunker, brought to life. He even has the blatant mispronunciations and butchering of names and words. Bieska is one of my favorites of his, who we saw tonight. I almost typed Bieska instead of Bieksa, multiple times because Don Cherry's pronunciation of his last name is burned into my head.

My company quietly stopped having them a few years ago. Now I don't even have to feel bad about not going,

Because those are how many seats are in the bowls. The old number included a bunch of the Suite's in capacity.

They tend to blame him for all the Oilers troubles even though Katz, Lowe and their stooges are to blame.

 

[Colin226]

I got a decent buzz at best because I got stuck talking to people, so I’m having a nightcap just to try and cope with missing this game live...

It's been 16514 for the past 2 years.

 

[VaxjoDevil]

I don't care, I like Don Cherry.

its not the old number its the number. they walked it back. and again they are smart to do that. the suites will fill up again.

 

[AveryQuietMan]

It's been 16514 for the past 2 years.

so did all the other seats just disappear?
