GDT: 4/15/16 - 7:00PM EDT - #3 Detroit VS #2 Tampa Bay [ECQF GAME 2]

[Brie]

Here comes the hooking and holding, you just know it's coming now.

Game plan in the locker room for Detroit:

*points to arms and hands*

"You use these to clothesline and hold"

*points to a TB jersey*

"THESE!"

Ugh.

Hopefully we can get some action from te other lines as well, we would have had a goal from our 2nd line last night if Drouin had been one step slower and also from the 3rd line if Coburn hadn't hit the crossbar so hopefully we geyt some more luck going forward.

 

[Leonardo87]

Cally in? Thank goodness! Would of been the 3rd game in a row I attended and he was hurt. Lol. Hope he can show up on the scoresheet tonight.

How did you know? Lol

 

[Houdas]

I have a feeling Bish has to be really great tonight. Anyway, lets make it 2-0! Potential is real

 

[Lord Stan 2020]

Why haven't we heard from Stamkos yet publicly? Is it a precaution?

this is news? this is his MO lol behind the scenes is why HE IS NOT GOING TO TORONTO TODD

I have a feeling Bish has to be really great tonight. Anyway, lets make it 2-0! Potential is real

do not hex goalies jeez at least your not calling any forbidden lol

i loved bish quotes your gonna have all kinds of goals go in even ugly ones disturbing types during the season in the playoffs you have to say fffffffffffffff to the tenth on that and move on forget it

great kinda quote

letsssssssssssssssssssssss gooooooooooooooooooooo boltsssssssssssssssssss

pumped up to max these playoffs wow

 

[MattM92]

I'm expecting Bishop to look even sharper tonight. He didn't look 100% on his game on Wednesday. Lot of low shots that he looked a tad awkward handling. That's to be expected though since he didn't play vs Montreal. He had like a week of no hockey. Takes goalies a game or two to get back in their zone.

Personally think the goals against Bishop weren't his fault. They were misdirections that went off our own players and that makes the puck hard to track for no matter who is in net. The RW haven't seen the best of Bish yet. Tonight is a game that he will have to steal because I think we see a real push back from the RW.

Pretty much. Two quick ones like that will rattle any goalie. Besides those 5-10 minutes, I thought Bishop looked pretty sharp. But he was visibly rattled after the first goal went in.

cant we hire pierre to do color even weeksey would provide that ummmphhhhhhhhhhhh level of excitement we deserve

 

[Hoek]

Pierre? No thanks, don't need to hear about every player's childhood.

 

[Kazuichi]

I am SO ready.

 

[Felonious Python]

Pierre also has like 7 years left on his deal with NBC. They could fire him of course, but they seem to like him.

 

[Iceman]

Hype

Probably because he knows all of their parents, and where their nieces and nephews sleep.

Pierre is not a guy you ever want to go crazy. He remembers you. And you might be on the list.

Pierre has an encyclopedic knowledge of things that aren't relevant to the game at hand.

funny thing came down here 19 years ago met a guy on like 620 am he asked me if id take an apprenticeship cause i had so much sports knowledge at that time i knew the drafties in sports etc.. all sports could do stats on top of head this is before got sick so like 15 years ago

i never followed up with it didnt want to have to go back to college get another degree etc..

i think i might have been good on radio but was following the dream with computers etc..

my dad knew this guy i should have followed up but honestly 15 years ago at like 32 is when the health issues started where memory and cognitive thinking changed

now i can watch a tv show and come back a month later and its sometimes forgotten

old age i guess lol
