Double OT. Time for locker room pizza and cocaine

Who would have ever thought that Pionk Trouba trade would be so one sided. We are still feeling the ripples of that today.

I'm happy for Pionk that he got traded off the Rangers and had some semblance of a respectable career. I'm thinking of Laffy and how he's getting ruined here, and it makes me sad.

 

[Machinehead]

nope. not remotely what i said or implied. by your "standards" the majority of players - including all goalies - on all nhl rosters are "bad." it's such a shitty conception of the sport, what's baffling is why you bother spending so much time talking about something you find so detestable

I don't think you understand my criticism of the goaltending position. I talk shit about them because they're frustrating, especially when your team is built around it, but the actual issue with goaltending is that most goalies in the AHL are capable of winning in this league.

Beyond that, I have no idea where you're getting "the majority of players" from.

I've been pretty vocal all season about not really 'getting' the Jets and they're in a Rocky fight with the 8 seed so am I wrong?

That reminds me…

Does anyone else feel like Rick Bowness looks like Pat Sajak with a peanut allergy?

 

[Machinehead]

Nick Leddy?

There's no way he's still playing. I don't believe you.

lindgren is gonna be caught flatfooted on the GWG, i just know it

the second the OT goal is scored Ryan Lindgren is going to trip over his own feet while carrying a large bowl of skittles in front of everyone at his watch party

Winnipeg crowd actually spurred a player to action there.

 

[Machinehead]

I'm watching Warriors vs Rockets during intermissions and the Rockets are f***ing ASSSSS.

This roster is Who the f*** is This Guy? the Musical.

Just in case people think I only hate mediocre hockey teams.

 

[Riche16]

WPG isn't gonna last a period playing this way in their zone

It's awful

 

[Riche16]

Tragically Hip playing on the intermission... go Canada lol

 

[Bob Richards]

Having to ice 5 D-men in a multi OT playoff game is brutal

Which is why Torts will always be immortal to me for willingly choosing to do this with Stu Bickel lol

 

[will1066]

Why can't TNT bring in Housley to the studio and let him analyze the D in these playoffs?

 

[Machinehead]

Sorry but that's a penalty

 

[Tob]

I am now rooting for as many OTs as possible and for the town of Winnipeg to be punished staying up until 4AM for attempting to build a town in the middle of a glacier.

Right up there with AV rocking the 11-6 in a game 7.

What a time to be alive.

 

[Machinehead]

We were all together just now to witness Neal Pionk making a nice play in the defensive zone

 

[Riche16]

He's too busy chasing pucks behind the net on some pond somewhere

 

[will1066]

Pionk is a stud

 

[mike14]

Blues have looked pretty gassed for most of the OT

 

[Machinehead]

That red advertisement on the screen is reflecting off the the people.

It makes the whole game look like Kane's entrance.

 

[bleedblue94]

This game just confirms I want nothing. To do with ehlers. Don't even care if he wins it in OT, he's been a disaster on the ice
