GDT: World Championship (RUS: Khudobin, Loktionov CAN: Peters))

[Moosetache]

Time for the Canes to take this tournament off the list of allowable participation.

USA losing 2-1 right now. Seth Jones is amazing. Gardiner has looked horrible to me.

because attracting players to a perennial losing team isn't difficult enough as it is. now let's ban a tournament that every other team allows its players to go to. sounds like a plan.

Today's updates from Slava Malamud:

1.)

#Canes Loktionov has left Minsk for Moscow today. Will go to Switzerland shortly to see a specialist. No definite prognosis yet but it's bad

2.)

@HockeywthHannah At this point, bad as in won't be ready to hit the ice any time soon.

Tommi Kivistö had good game. He was named best player of team Finland against Latvia.

We're not allowed to have nice things in the 7th round.

We're not allowed to have nice things in the 7th round.

Just ask Ritch Winter.

 

[BrindAmours Army]

My feelings exactly.

Edit: According to NHL.com he will be out for "several weeks".

So Russia only has 17 skaters for today's game. Maybe they should dress Khudobin as their 4th line RW

Better idea - fresh off the Wild's elimination...

Just don't ask him to play defense, because defensemen are crazier than goalies.

 

[Cardiac Jerks]

Since when?

 

[Blueline Bomber]

Since when?

Since Bryzgalov declared it to be so. After all, they're blocking shots without the extra padding that goaltenders have.

 

[Stormie]

Oh god a tandem of Bryzgalov and Dobby. The amount of laughs I would get out of those two would make our terrible seasons bearable!

 

[Blueline Bomber]

I can see it now:

Bryz would be answering a simple question with a philosophical stoner essay, while Khudobin is in the background trying to figure out how to build goalie pads out of Legos.

 

[rocky7]

I would like to see Bryz on the Hurricanes if they end up moving Ward out. I really like the guy since watching him more closely this year.

 

[garnetpalmetto]

Since when?

Bryzgalov: Okay, they fire the puck from the blue line and chief usually yelling like "Block the shot," you know, at the defensemen. They doesn't have a goalie gear, but they've got to block the shot. Who is more crazy, me or defenseman? Who is more weird?

 

[AD Skinner]

Love love love bryzgalov. I'd buy a bryzgalov jersey the day he signed here if it were to happen. Imagine Tripp khudobin and bryzgalov having a round table conversation... TV gold!

 

[Joe McGrath]

So with Loktionov out is it possible that the total TOI for the Hurricanes in this tourney is one shift's worth?

Fine with me.

Oh I don't care either. I just find it really amusing.

 

[TheBigKahuna]

Somewhere, LaRose is wringing his hands and sporting a wicked grin.

I'd finally bite on season tickets if that were to happen.

 

[ONO94]

Sorry, Bryz ain't gonna happen. My son and I were talking to Bryz after a Phoenix game while he was waiting to get on the bus to the airport and up comes Stormy. Ilya starts mentioning how good Stormy would be if used in BBQ and maybe he should come over for dinner sometime. Basically, the Storm Pig will put the big no-no on Bryz ever suiting up for the Canes....sad, I know, but when the Pig Oinks, people listen.

 

[Carolinas Identity*]

I'd love a tandem of Dobby and Bryz.
