Cooke on the 2nd line could be great. I think Avs might just concentrate a little bit too much on him and Vanek and Koivu say thank you.

 

[Victorious Secret]

Do you Finland guys have gamecenter or something? Or are there NHL games on TV in Finland?

Since Koivu and Granlund are their saviors all 60,000 fins congregate on their town hall and project the game in black and white against the brick building while consuming vodka and cigarettes. Intermission breaks are spent in the port-a-saunas.

 

[IHaveNoCreativity]

I don't know if I like Cooke with Koivu and Vanek.

But I guess if we're looking for 3 scoring lines, Nino-Haula-Coyle is a great 3rd line.

Interesting spot for Cooke, love the 3rd line.

Should be a good game.

More of this please. Let's Go Wild!

He SLUNG that puck so hard. I love it......

............... Pause.

 

[Lennu32]

Game is at 8pm. Work at 4 am. Teach me finlanders.

Try take a few hours sleep before game and few after that. Then lots of coffee and wondering thoughts without no rhyme or reason for the rest of the day Repeat until the season is over.

4.am is a killer for me workwise

I think the fins will get some assistance from a couple of austrians, following T. Vanek from Buffallo, via NY and Montreal to St. Paul.

I hope for a good season and Tom, please bring the to austria!

btw, the game will start here at 3am

Wouldn't that be T. Vanek from Minneapolis (University of Minnesota), via Buffalo, NY and Montreal to St. Paul?

Most of us pay 25e/month to get Viaplay package. That gives us NHL Gamecenter for the same price. Viaplay is about the same service as Netflix with a bit different content.

And how to do these games? I will just sleep 4 hours. Wake up 4am, watch game and drink coffee & cola, then go to work 7am. Get home around 4pm, eat, get Puhis from train station and drive to next job. Get home at ~9.30pm. Eat, browse HFB, sleep for couple of hours. I also have both saturday AND sunday work scheduled for 7am-4pm. These 12 day work weeks are ****ing fabulous. I also just came from my evening classes, as I'm trying to get into med school at this same time.

That is a commitment.

Where I haven't even spent the necessary time to figure out how to buy a Granlund Suomi jersey....

It's all good...Vanek was our beloved Gopher's Star player winning us a National Title before he moved on to Buffalo. Maybe he can bring us a cup now too!

My brother-in-law just came back from a music festival in Salzburg. Said Austria is amazing.

 

[DANOZ28]

[Cluttered]

[MN_Gopher]

Dumba -Folin pairing will be a good home pairing.

Wonder if they are both on an exteded look for when Fonzy coms back.

 

[Avder]

Can't wait!

Lets DO this! Lets DEMOLISH the Avs!!

 

[argotsato]

Is Kuemper the clear cut starter for the time being? Or is he splitting the workload with Backstrom?

"Can you address the Adrian Dater situation? Have you ever been in that situation?

I think Adrian knows he messed up, and I can tell you from chatting with him, he feels beyond terrible. I haven't been in this situation, but interestingly, I was talking with my editor a couple days after what happened, and we were talking about how easy it is to mess up on Twitter. It's a lot easier than you can imagine. Some people can be so vicious and mean-spirited on there, and hey, I'm a human being, too. Say something to try to hurt me, I'll be hurt. Say something to me that ticks me off, and my first instinct is to react. I think this was a good reminder and eye-opener that we do have to remember we represent our employer and have to be professional at all times. As for Adrian's situation, I think he'd be the first to admit he initiated this one and very, very, very remorseful for what happened. I feel for him because I have known him 20 years. He's a good guy and I think very good at his job. - Russo "

This came from the Russo StarTrib chat today. What happened with Adrian Dater? I completely missed this whole deal

 

[TZM]

This is...




but who's this guy?

That's what.

He's always been an a-hole, though. Even more so than Russo.

Couple soft after-the-whistle scrums and shoves, nothing beyond that

I'd guess an attempted fight and he draws a slashing penalty.
