GDT: It's a Snowy Sunday Afternoon Game Against Boston

[garnetpalmetto]

Karmanos was at the game today. I'm curious how many of our games he actually gets to.

 

[Joe McGrath]

Brinkley said that extra point frankly doesn't matter to the Canes as much as the Bruins. **** that arrogant *****, I hope the Canes edge the Bruins by one point for wildcard spot #2.

Had to miss the 3rd and OT.

 

[Joe McGrath]

Against the Blue Jackets?

There's no way we're winning that one.

They play the BJs 3 of the next 5 or 6. Should e just give up the season now?

That's the winning strategy we need!

every time someone says "Ahooooo" my brain hears it to the tune of those yodely Yahoo! commercials from the early aughts. "YahOOOoooo". I know you guys care, so that's why I'm telling you.

Take that **** to Reddit plx

Nah I'm gonna stop it there. Don't want to make it too weird.

I like it when this team wins. I hope they continue this glorious trend. Just win baby!

i will make the ultimate sacrifice and quit watching after 2nd period of every game from this point on if that is what it takes

 

[Unsustainable]

Aho is heating up

With Resch retired and Emrick only doing national broadcasts, is there a more unlikable broadcast pair than Edwards and Brinkley?

Steigerwald and whoever his partner is

Hell if I tune into the game after it starts the opposition always scores, it's either watch the whole thing entirely or not at all.

I'm thinking about just not watching at all and simply follow the GDT, they seem to play better when that happens.

Attendance was a lot better today than I thought it would be so that's cool. Over 11k.

That'd be Bob Errey. They're up there but I don't think they quite reach Edwards-Brinkley levels of awfulness.

Not bad, especially given said idiot (Edwards) apparently commenting there were probably "400" at the game.

What sucks is that Brinkley used to be a lot less like that. It also sheds a bit of light on why Edards is that way. When they used to do national games they were great. NESN wants them to be the way they are. Tough to go against the people that sign your checks.

Edit: This keeps autocorrecting from Brickley to Brinkley. I know it's Brickley.

Same for the Colorado guy who whispers when the opposition scores

 

[Roboturner913]

Just saw the game-winner from Seabass. Kid's got composure way beyond his years. Waiting for traffic to drift in front of the goal like that.

That just makes me laugh.

Haynes always sounds like he just saw his dog get run over when the other team scores.

 

[DaveG]

Minnesota's crew is underrated in the "holy **** these guys are ****ing horrible" department.

also watching Nordy and Stalberg working Chara over, that was beautiful

Remember Skinners rookie year? This reminds me of that. Not producing as many points as Jeff did that season but Aho "gets it", and is a treat to watch.
Too bad he doesn't resemble a teen heartthrob.

Or does he?

Age has definitely caught up to Chara. He hasn't looked effective in any games I've seen him this season.
