Incredible job! How do you do it?

 

[jbeck5]

Hoffman out - mccormick in for Ottawa.

 

[Mosby]

Lines per Sarah:

Rieder - Vermette - Boedker
Domi - Hanzal - Duclair
Chipchura - Richardson - Doan
Scott - Gordon - Downie

OEL - Stone
Dahlbeck - Z
Grossmann/Murphy/Elliott

Martinook isn't skating. That ankle injury must be acting up.

 

[moosemeister]

I'm okay with this line up.

Not expecting a win but hopefully an entertaining game. Let's go Yotes

I suspect Scott is in the line up to shadow ol' Muffaraw Joe.

Top three are where they should be, sans Chip for Martinook.

 

[Mosby]

Lindback starts

So is this not televised?

 

[GiveAFlyingPuck]

So is this not televised?

Correct.

 

[The Feckless Puck]

I can't wait for the moment early in the 1st period where Vermette staggers off the ice to the room for the rest of the night. I always look forward to that.

 

[awfulwaffle]

Did I hear correctly that the game is free on Center Ice?

Vermette left the last two games early because of injury, so why is he even playing. All he is doing is hurting himself and the team, same goes for Martinook.

 

[Jakey53]

Lindback starts

Good, let's see what he has.

I can't wait for the moment early in the 1st period where Vermette staggers off the ice to the room for the rest of the night. I always look forward to that.

Exactly.

 

[kihekah19*]

I just hope it's not blacked out on center ice, no idea if they're offering a freebie. Have not seen any indication of such when watching Center Ice, or NHL Network though.

I was surprised to see him in the lineup.

I believe Cox has a free preview(along with pretty much every other company that offers it) for the entire Center Ice package until the 27th. Yeah I'm curious about the blackout since we do live in the Phoenix market.

Sweet - Just checked my Directv guide, it's showing channel 774.
Fingers crossed for no blackout.

 

[Summer Rose]

Well, no TV anyway (though I'm sure I could dig up a Sens feed if I tried), but I'll be in Scottsdale doing my referee seminar during this one today.

Go Yotes!

 

[moosemeister]

Anybody who finds a live visual sequence of the game tonight, want to PM me?

Go Yotes!

 

[zerekstar]

Scott is in there to handle Turris

 

[Mosby]

Vermette is a game-time decision. Martinook can play if needed.

 

[Bonsai Tree]

Go Yotes!

Me too please

 

[CBJ goalie]

I think all of their games have been entertaining. Except when they're on the PP. Man, is it frustrating to watch their inability to gain the zone, or get set up.

 

[CBJ goalie]

Kodi is your friend. Game will be there.
