GDT: 1/29/15 - 7:30PM EDT - Detroit VS Tampa Bay

[Brie]

If we don't play this way against the Jackets on Sat. I'll be very disappointed.

Me too. We played awful against them last time so hopefully get to see more of this then more of that on Saturday.

Was Detroit one of the teams interested? I just heard that it was between Tampa and Chicago and then SFY called Johnson and talked him into coming here...and the rest, as they say, is history.

There were plenty of team interested I'm sure, but yeah it as down to those 2 for Johnson.

They did get Danny DeKeyser though, who was a player we wanted.

We then signed Sustr right around the same time.

Scotty Bowman spends a lot of time in Tampa, does he live here or is he just here visting SFY I guess since he knows him well?

He lives down there. Like Sarasota or something.

Lives in TB. He's some sort of scout/consultant for Chicago, but I think the entirety of his job description is attending TB games. If you listen to Bowman interviews, he constantly references TB.

Thanks, it was something I had been curies about for a while and thought I should finally ask if someone knew.

Chicago: stealing our jams

He lives down here I think.

Again with passing to DRW players Stmmer, you have to stop doing that.

 

[FDfranklin]

Just got home. Things looking good. What happened to flip? I saw Boyle on the first line.

Dunno he missed two shifts.

 

[DFC]

Drouin looks hungrier than usual tonight. Maybe the line chemistry has boosted his confidence.

just figured out he is one of the fastest in the league.....

 

[Stormbreaker]

Helluva shift by TKO there

 

[Brie]

See, told you we could make any goalie look good when we're in that mood.

 

[Brie]

Damn, why didn't Stammer shot there?

 

[dechire]

I like Palat

 

[Brie]

Wow, Quincys hit on Kuch was far worse then the one that Cally did on him but it wasn't called (neither should have been called)

 

[Brie]

Come on now, put in a final gear here in the last 5 minutes.

 

[Brie]

Another great save by Bishop. You can tell that the DRW is getting frusterated and that their time is running out.

 

[DFC]

Montreal wins (vs. Rangers). Makes this one even more important.

Yup, and Bruins won as well.

 

[Brie]

We seem to be more focused now on not letting them score on us right now, not many great scoring chances in the 3rd.

 

[Brie]

Woohoo!! We win, and what a great effort, we need to see this every game.

 

[Stormbreaker]

9th straight home win ties franchise record and back in 1st place!
