GDT: B @ D 7pm

Pirri seems to have pretty good hands.

 

[2faded]

Go stand in front of Chara's shot and tell us again how you feel.

Me personally? I wouldn't. But, plenty of players do and they aren't wearing goalie equipment. Andersen is still in the game, right? A lot of players feel some pain from blocking a shot. Should their equipment be bigger also?

 

[Nordic*]

Is Trent Yawney still the D coach?

 

[Nordic*]

Kesler is such a warrior.

 

[snarktacular]

Kesler is a bowling ball. The net is a pin.

 

[snarktacular]

Rakell and Pirri not doing a good job supporting Perron there. Not a good shift.

 

[snarktacular]

Despres screwed up all kinds of ways with his momentum there. Takes a shot skating backwards. Yet still doesn't have backwards momentum to defend the rush the other way when his weak shot is blocked.

 

[mightyquack]

An adbreak with 1:08 left in the period, really?

 

[ChaseANA]

tf is a "nugy"

 

[lindholmie]

dive?

 

[dracom]

Is Trent Yawney still the D coach?

I thought he went to Tampa? Or I might be thinking of someone else.

I thought he went to Tampa? Or I might be thinking of someone else.

Lauer went to Tampa, Yawney is still here. I know he works with the PK but idk what else he does

 

[mightyquack]

Yawney gets interviewed at some point in nearly every game

There are even NHL goalies who have faced Chara's shot who feel the pads need to be smaller.

Buffalo Sabres goaltender Robin Lehner joined Hockey Hotline on WGR Monday morning to talk about recovering from injury earlier this season to earn the No. 1 goalie spot in Buffalo. He also discussed whether goalies should be forced to reduce the size of their pads.

Lehner said he believes pads should definitely be reduced:

"I'm a pretty big guy and you have guys weighing around 160 who look bigger than me on the ice," he said. "We should be athletes out there, not operating equipment. We should save the pucks, it shouldn't be the equipment that saves the pucks."

Marchand makes Garbutt, Kesler and Perry look like choir boys.

His face couldn't possibly be more punchable.

oh, that's right. Thank you.

Guy on zamboni at intermission is from North Carolina.... CI IS THAT YOU?!?!?!

 

[Ducks DVM]

Perron gets 2 for unsportsmanlike, Marchand gets 2 for roughing.

 

[NEWFowler]

Gotta love the Bruins guys whining about non-calls during the intermission so unprofessional.

 

[Ducks Nation*]

Gotta love the Bruins guys whining about non-calls during the intermission so unprofessional.

Are you surprised?

 

[Nordic*]

Don't think Pirri, Rocky and Perron are a good fit together.

That line needs a tank.

 

[dracom]

Perron gets 2 for unsportsmanlike, Marchand gets 2 for roughing.

I don't understand what happened there. Marchand lost an edge and fell, and went after Perron, right? Why does Perron get a penalty?

 

[Frosted Tips]

Few more weeks practicing with Pirri in that spot and we're good. he's like Ovechkin, but not even close at all.

This is yet the best assessment I've heard of. Thanks!
