GDT: VIII | "Afternoon Delight" | Oilers @ Avs | 2.2.13 | 1PM | SNET-W

[misfit]

hopefully the oiler tradition of stinking up in afternoon games does not happen today

We're going to have to kick that habbit right away. We've got 3 afternoon games this month.

 

[Soli]

Dubnyk starts.

Horcoff is out.

Hordichuk and Lander are playing.

Guesstimated lineup...

Smyth - Belanger - Petrell
Hordichuk - Lander - Hartikainen

Petrell may not play either, could be a 7-defenseman thing.

 

[CupofOil]

I'm going against the grain and will say that they lay an egg today and lose an emotionless 4-1 game. Day game, 3rd game in 3 1/2 days at high altitude against a team that they "should" beat especially with all the injuries and will likely underestimate, not a good combination IMO.

 

[gooilgo]

Dubey starts according to Dan Tencer.

 

[Soli]

Because Soli is a lazy slacker.

yep lets blame it on Soli

Staying up till 2:00AM EST to post midnight GDTs does not jive with my 6:30AM EST morning schedule. I love ya'll, but I love sleep immensely more.

You are forgiven on one condition. You can answer the following question. What... is the air-speed velocity of an unladen swallow?

 

[Ogurek]

Can someone post a working stream of the game on here? It appears atdhe has no nhl games.

Try Here... Wiziwig

or http://www.coolsport.tv/stream6.html

 

[Delicious Pancakes]

Wizwig only have 2 streams for the game, both around 200k -.-

Anyone have a better one?

24 miles an hour, give or take accounting for normal flight conditions. This is assuming you're referring to Hirundo rustica, the Eurpoean swallow, and I'd be surprised if you were not.

 

[alphahelix]

Well, I feel like I've been around these parts long enough to ask you why the hell you know that?

Personally, I'd be more interested in the ... cougar swallow
EDIT: Damn, multiple edits due to my ornithological ignorance. House Sparrow, Barn Swallow. Barn Swallow = European Swallow. Hmm... Cave swallow? Is that a thing?

 

[McOilbleeder]

Dubey starts according to Dan Tencer.

Good. You play to win the game. If Dubnyk wants to be a long term #1 for this team, he needs to get used to having a heavy heavy work load.

He'll be fine.

And here I didn't know I was in the presence of royalty

I see someone else watched quite a bit of Kratt's Creatures when they were a kid too.

 

[ohheyhemsky]

**** the Avalanche for having a game at 1 on a Saturday.

 

[Aceonfire*]

lol @ the Holy Grail references in this thread.

African, or European?

 

[Tarus]

Man, does that sportsnet panel ever have faith in Khabibulin.

It's like they haven't watched an Oilers game in the last 3 years.

 

[Harley]

Go Oilers.

I want this one.

They also think Whitney has been a stud

Pretty sure the Avalanche organization didn't set the schedule lol

Go away. Now it's your fault.


:'(


I have a class from 1-4:30

 

[Mr Forever]

Yes there is a doubt Khabibulin can play in net for the Oilers. You are wrong Gene. Stick to puns.

 

[Tarus]

I just figured they couldn't tell which defenseman is which.

Not an excuse you can use for goaltenders.

 

[Horseradish]

Hadn't seen a Sportsnet Pre-game with Gene since last year-- and only a few times last year. Is it just me or has he actually gotten WORSE?! God, he's all over the place, way too excited, and what the hell was with those two random guys he invited into the shot as his "human props"???

Weird.

Really like DeBrusk though. He's gonna have a long career in broadcasting.
