GDT: Bedard VS Crosby - Tuesday at 7PM Central on ESPN

[Paul Allen]

I was one of like six thousand people in attendance to see it live.

Back in the days when home games weren’t on TV.

What a conundrum to find ourselves in.

Every one of us wants Bedard to have a healthy and highly successful rookie campaign BUT at the same time every one of knows deep down that this team could really use another top 5 (better yet top 3) draft selection this year.

Worst case Ontario is that Bedard hits the ground running and elevates the play of everybody around him and the team winds up with a pick at the later end of the top 10 :/

I've said it once I'll say it 1000 more times... load up on the high scoring losses.

While I think this team will be better than many expect, I still think it's a team that will have a top 5 pick.

This team should still be top 3-5 bad even with Bedard...they could easily send off some vets at the deadline to ensure they bottom out

1. I hadn't seen this posted anywhere yet.

2. Our Chicago Blackhawks team has been moved in HF. I am used to clicking where the Colorado Avalanche are now.

 

[ytsejam]

I took the night off of work and am ready to fire up the hockey watch box this evening!

 

[Jimmy2Times]

I'm guessing we won't know if it's a sellout until closer to puck drop?

 

[Muffinalt]

Beyond excited for this one. Bedards debut, Korchinski's first game, the improved Kaiser and Reichel, f***!

It's going to be torture to have to wait through work to be able to watch the replay. But all worth it.

Hope for some stellar first games from our boys of the future!

 

[BobbyJet]

I look forward to Bedard jock-strapping EK.

 

[bustamente]

You all got a generational player in Bedard for the future, enjoy and good luck this year

So a spectrum of possibilities:
1. CB 0 pts..Crosby 2 or 2+pts?
2. CB 1 pt ...Crosby 0 pts
3.CB 1 pt... Crosby 2 or2 +pts
4. Each gets just 1 pt..
5. CB 2 or2+pts ...Crosby 1 pt
6. CB 2 or 2+pts...Crosby 0 pts
7. Each gets 0 pts
8. Each gets 2 or 2+points

I would be surprised if #8 happens...
I would not be surprised if each gets 0 pts tonight...but Probably at least one of them ..gets a multi-pont night.

GET HYPE

 

[Toews2Bickell]

here is to a 100 point rookie season lets ride

 

[Styles]

Been pregaming at the arena since 5. Lots of Bedard jerseys.

 

[Dead Meat]

Alright....have to admit I'm enjoying the hype already.

 

[Toews2Bickell]

just want the kid to pot a goal tonight, would ease some of the pressure and outside noise immediately

 

[Rooh]

Same brother

just want the kid to pot a goal tonight, would ease some of the pressure and outside noise immediately

He will...he will. Trust the process bicksy. 3 goals

 

[ChiHawks10]

A highlight reel goal would ease the outside noise even more.

 

[coolhand]

I would love to see Bedard follow in Toews' footsteps and score his first goal on his first shot in his first game

 

[Jimmy2Times]

Anyone else watching NSH/TB on Espn? I'm not sure how I feel about the player name graphic they are doing anytime a player touches the puck... seems unecessary?

LOL ... ridiculous. What next, the blue streak behind the puck, the circled puck? We've been there.

 

[belfour30]

If musturd cats/Lightning game goes to OT they better flip over to the Hawks game.

It's really distracting... it's the play by play guys job to tell you who's doing what.... that said it might help during a Vosters call!

 

[Dead Meat]

I'm watching the Nashville / TB game and they mention Conor every seven minutes
