OK, so I've done all my superstitious prep H for tonight's big game, still looking for my first win for you folks:

Hey you, yer pretyy cute:

​

O.K. a nap & few cups of strong coffee have helped me get back on my game. Let's go.​

Last night was a poor showing by our Board, especially me. One could say that I dropped the proverbial ball:

Now, I've seen a lot of things during my short time at HF:

But I never saw a Thread die like ours did last night.

So, I've put in some hard training, (to offset the hard-drinking, kinda):

And I'm ready to see the Knights burn Dallas tonight (Figuratively):

So thank you @Vegan Knight for the idea for a GDT concept,
but most of all:

No Longer a Texas Ranger - is actually
a Vegas Golden Knights Fan

No Really, I heard it from someone else on this Board










Go! Knights Go!​

Knights lose this game and Ginger Papa will be forever banned from making gdts. lol, I am just kidding.

 

[IceNeophyte]

Vegas wont lose this game!

 

[hangman005]

Well not back yet, but the most important question is....

Does @Nevada Jones want a Vegas loss so that he no longer holds the most lossingess GDT record.

 

[theslatcher]

With Flames having turned it around and Nucks breathing down out backs, we need every win we can get right now.

Back to back and travelling a distance before both games and third game in four days, against the Stars. Possibly with Subban in net, I think we are going to be underdogs in this game.

Well, even without those factors we are underdogs in this game. Everybody loves a good underdog story though, so lets do this!

If I were to venture to guess, I'd say they put Flower in for this game, to give some kind of pace for him after his bereavement, and Subban Sunday because he historically performs better at home.

I'll happily retain the title of forum biggest loser if we can pull this one out. Not optimistic. But hoping...

Go! Go!

 

[Nevada Jones]

If I were to venture to guess, I'd say they put Flower in for this game, to give some kind of pace for him after his bereavement, and Subban Sunday because he historically performs better at home.

That's my guess, too, especially as Flower should still be relatively well rested. Also to give him a chance to bounce back after last night.

And we need them points!

 

[Vegas07]

So I don’t make a prediction and we lost 4-2. Last time I didn’t predict anything it was a 5-0 loss.

And when I did make a prediction the team was 5-0-1 and the one OT loss still resulted in a point after being behind late in the 3rd.

I feel like the cats, dogs and predictions are doing all the work. The team needs to pick it up. Can’t be having the posters here doing all of the work (including ruining the shutout that Fleury almost got but I don’t want to think about that ).

 

[Vegas07]

Despite all that if I run over to the casinos and start putting money on the games I’d probably start losing.

At least I won’t lose as much as a certain player on the Sharks though.

I need to get a doggie.

 

[CupInSIX]

I know we still have a couple of hours until puck drop and there's only 2 games on tonight, but I've submitted a request to the Moderators to make the Thread "Live" when they get a chance. I've found they're quick to respond.

I made a similar request for VGK to come alive.

It's no joke. I ask this of Crom.

And Crom, if you will not listen...

then to hell with you!

Also not blowing leads and allowing 2-3 unanswered goals would be neat.


Some flippin resilience yeah.

 

[Nevada Jones]

Will we get good Malcolm or the one we're more used to?

 

[Ginger Papa]

Will we get good Malcolm or the one we're more used to?

Praying for the good one:

(And hoping for my first VGK GDT win)

Merrill, Holden, Engo, Suub.

 

[Knightmare]

Merrill, Holden, Engo, Suub.

It’s not even fair. They should just hand us the cup now.

Klinger's out, so that's good news for us. Hopefully everything's ok with his family though.
