Be right back, I'm instant messaging my friends from my AOL account about this very important matchup tonight.

 

[HisIceness]

They want to know why the NHL is on the Outdoor Life Network, what should I tell them?

 

[HisIceness]

Speaking of OLN, their graphics were ahead of their time. First scorebug in any sport that I can remember that used both teams logos in it.

Good visual quality for 2006, the audio however sounds like what you'd hear in the bathrooms at any sports stadium.

 

[HisIceness]

That was great passwork by the Devils on that goal.

Trying to remember but I think you might be right about that. Can't recall seeing that on ESPN, but can't remember what Fox was using.

So I just looked up a Panthers video from their 2003 seadon that I have in my faves, FOX beat them to the punch.

Can't do that

Yeah I remembered them using the logos back in the 90s but I don't know if they were on the screen full time when the NHL was on Fox. Either way definitely a big step up from ESPN presentation wise which seems absurd to say.

It was a different time.

A better time. When linesmen would just drop the f***ing puck on face offs.

 

[Tryamw]

Down 1 in the second.
Too much Devils

 

[HisIceness]

Dude recording the interview between Francis and Christine Simpson on his flip phone. Good shit.

 

[Surrounded By Ahos]

My boy chad almost had one there. Then KAdams got mugged for being near Fatso.

Now a pk. KAdams for the board.

 

[HisIceness]

Never forget, Cam Ward once had more goals than Scott Gomez.

 

[HisIceness]

Hell yeah the Recchin ball!

 

[DaveG]

God do people ever underrate just how stacked this team was, at least up front.

 

[Tryamw]

Lot o penalty
