Wow Du-Ming is freaking amazing.

 

[Lyotes]

Have the Yotes ever scored on the empty net?

 

[moosemeister]

Good win and great way to end the road trip!

 

[0point1]

Is that a thing with this broadcast crew?

Yeah, they say it pretty much every game which makes it absolutely meaningless.

 

[Muppet]

All hail the mighty Domingue.

 

[moosemeister]

Elliot had a pretty good game. He seems to be getting better every game.

Photo finish, I'll tell ya that, Smith'll Doan'll Vermette'll etc., [something about a pepperoni pizza]... Nash and McConnell have several oft-repeated grating phrases and proclivities.

Domingue is undefeated this season in games in which he plays all 60 minutes. Anyway, it was a great game tonight. Having a solid goalie is making a world of difference for us.

Blarg.

We have one of the single worst broadcast crews out of all 4 major pro sports.

Besides playing great, Du-Ming has also saved GMDM from himself. Without Du-Ming playing great, we would've blown a draft pick and salary on some other team's washed up goalie.

Nobody's worse than the NESN (Bruins) crew.

Without a doubt.

Smith'll Doan'll Vermette'll etc.,

That might be the worst part

 

[WJF]

Nice road trip. Don't **** up the homestand now.

As predicted, Domi and Duclair down to 14min per game. Surprised it took this long. **** Tippet. But the team is winning, so he's chuckling.

What about all the times Tyson says "and that's why Smith is one of the best goalies in the league" or something similar despite the fact he has the worst or nearly the worst record in the league.

How do you not call that trip. The "put the whistles away" thinking is a joke. Guys have free reign in the last three minutes.

I disagree. That is how the game traditionally is and should be called.

 

[HerrDonut]

Bless. It's my least favorite thing that the pair of them have graced us with. Nash dances to the beat of his own drum, more power to him for being himself, but f*** the way McConnell contracts 'player names' + 'will.' I recently got a job that allows me to tune in to most games, so now more than ever I am aching for the broadcasting of sports sans commentary. Or get Ray Hudson to call every game across all sports.

Listen to the radio crew with the TV on mute. The radio will be about 5 to 10 seconds ahead but it is worth it to not hear Tyson.

I'm a fan of Heeter, yeah. AM radio is piss, but eh.

 

[Doohickie]

No, because all it does is favor the defense. The game needs more offense. Call more penalties, especially when they take away a scoring chance.

Heeter gets your hopes up on every shot. Love it.

Yes he is awesome. Kind of dangerous to listen to when driving though, I end up inadvertently driving 5 to 10 MPH faster when he describes an attack by the Coyotes on the other teams.

Alright since Murph has been back he has looked like a legit 3-4 guy that can slide to a #2 spot when needed/if the #1 is a true #1. I've been waiting for bad habits to sneak back into his game but they haven't. He is seemingly improving every 2-3 games or so on top of it. I've never seen him pinch this much and he is making smart shots from the line.

Elliot needs to be in the top 6 and can be sat when he needs a rest and watch tape. Him and Dahlbeck are very complimentary as a third pair.

And I can't believe I'm about to type this but...the Grossman/Stone pairing has been excellent on this road trip. Again, complimentary playing styles. Seems like Stone has the perfect amount of mobility to get Grossman out of trouble (not too fast, not too slow) and Grossman has that additional amount of physicality to support Stone. I don't think opposing forwards are thrilled to see both of them down the ice together. I feel Murphy was too rangy for Grossman, making Grossman make bad plays when Murphy was already moving down the ice. Stone can get just far enough down the ice where Grossman can get him the puck and he can make the next play.

Huge improvements, and I'm worried about Z getting healthy again. I hope everyone can keep this up, but Murphy becoming a solid second pairing defenseman would be huge for this team moving forward.

and hail #11! If (massive if) he stays healthy the Coyotes are going to the playoffs.
