GDT: Game 49: Vegas Golden Knights @ Winnipeg Jets / 5 PM / Reginald Dwight Edition

[Vegas07]

Winnipeg fans still hate Stastny.

 

[BattleBorn]

Watching hockey at low framerates makes the game seem easier. I think this might actually improve my viewing experience. More time to think.

Well I slept in, so only just now got everything done I needed to do... except pack my bags. How are we looking... and

Go Go

[hangman005]

After all this talk about you being gone, I have two questions.

1.) Where did you go?
2.) Why are you here?
3.) Where do people in NZ go to vacation (if applicable)

 

[GKG18]

Play has been crisp and fast. A few grade A opportunities for both, goalies doing their jobs. Mostly pass, pass, muck, turnover so far.

 

[BattleBorn]

It was my goal to give my BB analysis for this game, but multiple things are working against me. I discovered the restaurant in the building a block over had a happy hour. This is usually not as issue for me, I'm good at doing the high functioning drunk thing. However, the nhl.tv issues added a wrinkle I'm not sure I'm able to overcome. Therefore, I'll issue my standard analysis based on my past knowledge and nothing about what I've seen from this game:

Tuch is a God.
Pacioretty and Stastny need more time and will rock ass once they gel again.
The Knights try too hard to make nice passes.

Do any of these apply tonight?

1.) Going Here. Middle of Nowhere, but it's where my sister lives.
2.) Leave early tomorrow morning, but had a lot of stuff I had to do today, like clean the house for the house sitter whose a neat freak... my plan of leaving it messy to give them something to do didn't go down well
3.) Most people go to the beach... I hate the beach I would rather go to the mountains... we are doing neither, we are going to a farm.

In this world there are two people, people that enjoy the beach/paradise and those that are wrong.

We quiet in here.

beach means summer.... summer means hot... hot means hot... I hate hot... especially beach hot, which is humid hot, not dry hot. but hot makes me murderous hahaha

I still want to see Tuch be more assertive and take advantage of his size as we've seen him do in the past.

He can be a Getzlaf type player if he'd do that.

I recently discovered nice hot. This was a surprise after two decades in Las Vegas. This new summer hot I discovered is not as good as Caribbean breeze summer hot, but it's close.

Plus, the best kept secret in North American meteorology is that Pacific Northwest stereotypical rainy crap isn't really bad at all.

I must take the dinner now. Hold down the Fortress (whoops, wrong place!) in my absence, por favor.

Consider it held down.

I can see the pinstripes in Hnidy's suit now, so it's an improvement.

 

[hangman005]

Good scoring spot..... pass

As per the norm.

He's got stripes... stripe upon his shoulders...

SinBin: There's nothing wrong with Vegas' PP other than not being able to finish.

Yeah if you don't count decision making, shot selection, pacing and active skating even without the puck it's all gravy.

 

[Vegas07]

Pigs will fly before we ever score on the power play.

Ugh, maybe this will help.
