Pre-Game Talk: Floridelphia Flyanthers @ Montreal

[kerrabria]

The 23 man roster limit goes away after the deadline. Still need to stay under the cap, but Ek on LTIR alleviates that.

Oh, I didn't know that.

 

[kerrabria]

Holy shit. How come we dont have more videos like this? And it didnt even come from Florida

With no other context, I'll guess that players and coaches don't want cameramen leaning over the boards or planted on the ice filming their workouts. I assume this was planned specifically to give the media something in anticipation of Giroux's debut.

I've come to really dislike Vegas. When it comes to personnel decisions, not sure if there's ever been a more Machiavellian franchise in modern North American sports.

Lofl @ thread title, and otherwise - lets go cats!!

I'm here for the G show mainly, but you all seem cool, hoping there's enough room on the bandwagon

It's a truce.

Literally don’t remember our last game other than Ekblad getting injured.

5-3 Vegas when benny tripped and fell that led to a breakaway

No trade, no problem: Craig Anderson still ‘enthusiastic’ about gig with Sabres - Buffalo Hockey Beat

Goalie Craig Anderson said if the Sabres had traded him, the Panthers would’ve been his preference.

Anderson was open to a trade and requested Florida. Sabres declined and apparently want to re-sign him for a 20th! (hard to believe) season.

I've seen him in a couple of games lately, and he looked pretty good. No joke.

Devil should be up 2-1 if they weren't so shit and gave 2 short handed goals

They're really terrible, but I like what they did to the Leafs. If they had had more gas in the tank, could have won that one.

 

[Prominence Problem]

I've always had dreams of the Panthers winning

Since Mason was drafted to the Flyers, I've had thoughts and visions that I would like both Florida & Philadelphia.

I think this is the universe's way to send me a sign. Keep dreaming, it just might come true, Giroux

At least the game is on at a decent goddamn hour tomorrow

Nope

Too early by 3 hours

 

[Gentle Man]

I haven't been this excited for a TDL acquisition since f***ing Jagr 8 years ago

Giroux wears a jersey tonight (for you EST Plebes)!!!

 

[iam76]

excited as hell.

How many week long pauses have we had this year? 4?

I'm fully expecting a week between games 1 and 2 of the first round.

Agreed. I liked them at first with Gallant behind the bench, a few ex players, and being the underdog/surprise success story of the inaugural season. But I've really soured on them.

The Nuggets got off to hot start because GMs were giving them left and right top4 dmen and top6 forwards who were deemed to be unwanted leftovers and that storyline gets old fast. Their first season was fun but I never got a feeling that they'll be able to sustain their competitiveness beyond the first three years, especially after they fired Gallant (who I don't hold in high regard tbh) and hired to Luce to lead their amateur scouting. For an instance, the Fleury debacle was just more of the same for me. I think that they'll be a ~bottom5 team in the next season.
