Should win this on paper

Need to start improving on home ice. Make Climate Pledge Arena a true advantage!! That is very important in the playoffs.

 

[The Marquis]

Just realized I won’t be able to watch this one. Enjoy it for me.

 

[sigma six]

Win and be at 80 points, I like the sound of that.

 

[Sad People]

New mask for Gru??

 

[Bear of Bad News]

Big rig?

Should win this on paper

Except that games aren't played on paper - they're played inside television sets.

Speaking of which, I like Buccigross just fine, but I want Forslund.

 

[brewski420]

Defense shaky to start. Nice play to get first goal!!

Matty looking good tonight.

 

[Fistfullofbeer]

McCannon.

 

[Bear of Bad News]

MCCANN!

I love this team.

 

[brewski420]

McCann!!

 

[Fistfullofbeer]

That was some insane puck movement there. What the hell is this team?

 

[Fistfullofbeer]

Holy crap. This ESPN coverage is garbage.

 

[kihei]

Nice to arrive to see we have a 2-0 lead. Hope it becomes a 5-0 lead soon. I could use a laugher.

 

[Bear of Bad News]

Nice to see KIRO alum Linda Cohn in the building.

 

[Bear of Bad News]

f***in' Zegras, man.

 

[kihei]

Well, ain't gonna be any laugher.

 

[Bear of Bad News]

Well, ain't gonna be any laugher.

A laugher wouldn't be consistent with the last forty years of Seattle pro sports.

 

[Bear of Bad News]

That list of expansion teams' first playoff seasons was all kinds of messed up.

Minnesota Wild definitely made the playoffs before their eighth season - they lost to J-S Giguere in the 2003 conference finals.

 

[Bear of Bad News]

SPRONG!

 

[Fistfullofbeer]

SPRONG!

I think that quick release got Gibson.

 

[Scomerica]

Pretty comfortable so far barring that ducks wonder goal

A laugher wouldn't be consistent with the last forty years of Seattle pro sports.

Even in the last decade when the Seahawks have been good their games have been stressful heart attack affairs barring super bowl 48.

Two goal cushion restored going into the third period thanks to Sprong. He's been a little quiet lately, so it is good to see him contribute a very clutch goal.

Definitely good to see him get one here. If he could pick his spots a little better and pass rather than forcibly carry the play he could be much better on offense.
