I’ve come to enjoy the Wings broadcast, which has a conversational vibe similar to a baseball broadcast. It’s unique in the NHL and you get a strong feeling that there are things to be learned if you pay attention. They’re also one of the league‘s more neutral broadcasts in terms of giving equal perspective on both sides of the matchup.

I’m glad we played the Wings tonight, to hear their crew react in real time to Ovechkin’s goals. That has to be a really tough thing for the organization, seeing him creep inevitably up to pass Gordie Howe. Their reactions captured it perfectly, that sense of respect for both players and a bit of a tear shed for the past, but taking nothing away from the present. Very cool little moment in hockey history.

Is it the 2 same old dudes? If so, they must have had a good game. When i have listened to them, they made of the Canes and generally made me feel they weren’t watching much.

Kochetkov is pretty ok I think

 

[ViD]

Is this good? It feels like it should be but I can't tell

I believe Samsonov now also has a back to back SO

Yeah as I mentioned above that record was accurate for a handful of minutes..

Mickey Redmond and Ken Daniels. They’ve both been at it a long time, they make Forslund look like a young pup.

It’s that baseball style of broadcast. No real PBP, more like a conversation about what they’re seeing. I don’t mind it.

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

5-0-1 road trip, is that good?

Not if you ask Aho.

[Cardiac Jerks]

Koochie was for a few minutes the only goalie with back to back shutouts..(this season)
Samsonov also did it.. a few minutes later..

They stomped the ducks days after we lost to them

 

[Unsustainable]

So he will shut out 25% of the games?

 

[Svechhammer]

So he will shut out 25% of the games?

I mean it's not 100% of the games so clearly he's a bum

 

[VAcaniac]

Who’s that guy named Frederik Andersen again?

 

[Unsustainable]

I mean it's not 100% of the games so clearly he's a bum

hes 100% in the last 2, thats sustainable

 

[Surrounded By Ahos]

So Pyotr is our starter now right?

Until he gets killed, or we find someone better.

 

[VAcaniac]

Hot taek alert: Ovie was literally one of my favorite players even when he was carving us up in the Southeast division but at this point he's kinda like Pete Rose, a stat compiler with no real goal other than to break records. Gretzky probably could have scored 1000 goals if he really wanted to so when Ovie breaks his record I will probably just shrug and go on with my day.

 

[HisIceness]

Now I could be wrong but it seems shutting out the opposition is a winning strategy.

1-0 shootout loss incoming

Agree, he should just stop trying to score goals. It's painful to see a guy who's barely NHL caliber any longer just trying to hang on to pad his stats.

 

[Chrispy]

I could be wrong, but I believe it’s Frederik Andersen.

 

[Tryamw]

Are you sure it's not the ghost of goalies past?

 

[The Faulker 27]

It’s wild that our road schedule is basically half over only 2 months into the season.

It's wild we're only 2 months into the season. My personal life has been so busy. It's one of those years I feel like it should be March, but it's only December.

I am literally fine with Ovie scoring 40 goals a year until he's Jagr's age now, I just don't find it impressive in the grand scheme of things. No he should not stop trying to score goals and no he's not barely NHL caliber, so please return your account to grandpa, BBA's grandson. Strawmen arguments are beyond him.

I was wondering about that when Tripp was talking about how hard the Canes worked to get him out of Russia before he cut himself off and said that that wasn't a story for broadcast.

 

[The Faulker 27]

Our team defense is doing him some favors as well.
