GDT: cane aisle

[cptjeff]

I'm not sure if it's just that teams are wearing retros super often or if a lot of teams have decided to wear them against the canes but it does seem noteworthy how much we're seeing them. These isles ones are solid but really I think their primary look is as good as any in the league

I think a lot of teams are wearing them a lot early in the season to encourage holiday sales.

PK time.. cause that's what we need.

 

[surfzone365]

PK time. Otherwise decent pace so far

I felt like the Islanders were swarming us..

NHL needs to everything they can to raise revenue. The reverse retros are a stroke of genius.

 

[Tryamw]

Lee helped that but Pesce did a nono

 

[Rick Davis]

Jeff skinner I thought was a Sabre.. and Why is he running Kotchetkov?

Speaking of Skinner I saw tonight he was suspended for 3 games for cross checking. Wasn’t Skinner the Candyass of Candyasses in the bad old Candy Canes era? Has he morphed into Tom Wilson?

 

[Porvari]

Isles owning their checquered history. IIRC those jerseys were universally ridiculed when they were an actual thing.

 

[Tryamw]

Now Burns to the Box. Another interference.

 

[MisterDobz]

No checking allowed!

 

[Surrounded By Ahos]

oh boy

 

[surfzone365]

Not ideal. Penalties are gonna kill us

I mean, they're not exactly poor, they don't *need* to do it. But it is a decent opportunity for fan service.

And Burns goes to the box too. f***ity f***.

 

[Tryamw]

No checking allowed!

He hit a guy w/o the puck.. good call though regretable.

Islanders interfere with Slavin.

 

[surfzone365]

I felt like the Islanders were swarming us..

They are now

 

[cptjeff]

Huh, looks like the refs got a memo reminding them that interference is a penalty.

 

[surfzone365]

Penalty fest on the island tonight

 

[Surrounded By Ahos]

YOU GET AN INTERFERENCE PENALTY

[Tryamw]

Kochetkov

 

[ndp]

Less than 15% into the game. SLAVIN VERY NOTICEABLE!

 

[surfzone365]

Whew we got lucky there

 

[Tryamw]

Less than 15% into the game. SLAVIN VERY NOTICEABLE!

It's not like he is Chara..

He's always gotten a little, shall we say, creative with his stick. The occasional slewfoot as well. He was never a candyass, he just wasn't a big hitter. Never afraid of the occasional cheapshot, though.

 

[surfzone365]

It’s nice to see players on other teams can whiff the puck other than our guys.

 

[Tryamw]

Noesen pass to Canes... Not to space cause no Canes are making those runs..
