I think I found a new (long) video review song.

Man, anytime Kuch does anything it triggers people on the main boards.

The whole thing was about getting the team to pick up the pace. Responding to the Hedman hit specifically was arbitrary.

It’s a fun read for sure.

Couldnt watch the game out here, but the kitties announcers were typical and ultra-homerish. Guys on Hockey Fights revealed the dumbass liberties Davies had taken with 77 and 86, and that his beat down was much deserved, If the kitties guys had Bennett creaming someone, they'd have said "Oh yeah, he sure deserved that" Laughable.

Since the global series games started I figured the rest of the league also has games this weekend, but I just checked the schedule and apparently we don't have a game for another week. Nice.

Yeah, i get a kick out of all the "my team would never do that!"

That's exactly why your team never wins.

 

[ccman68]

looking at our early season schedule and it's rough. the easier games are against minnesota and ottawa and we f***ing suck against those teams. after october things do get easier so hopefully our record isn't complete shit at that point

 

[JTBF81]

Not the easiest first month, but not that bad of a gauntlet either. I see they have 11 b2b's this season, including one set against Florida right before Christmas. And of course there's the 2 week break in Feb because of the international tournament, which means we can expect the Bolts to be a dumpster fire for atleast a week when coming back from that if past breaks are any indication. I'm guessing JJ gets 23-25 starts, between the b2b's and not wanting to overtax Vasy, anymore than he will be already, in the regular season.

You know what song hasn't been turned into a goal song, AFAIK?

Scatman.

 

[Fan from AK]

Does anybody have Stammer's preseason stats? He a minus 1 again without a goal in the game so far,

 

[Felonious Python]

I didn't even know hurricanes could go that direction.

A Wednesday storm shouldn't affect tomorrow's preseason game against Nashville, or the season openers against...*sigh*...the Hurricanes.

 

[StammerHammer]

We're getting out of Dodge. Our house was an island, water came within inches of the place with Helene, don't need to spend another night like that. We live in Bradenton.

Be safe.

Applies to all of you.

Yeah, be safe guys.
