I guess Ill just copy it here since our worst GM decided to ruin it.

Ned vs Driedger
Who wins?

2 top statistical goalies in the AHL not too long ago.

They went against thrice before in the AHL
Nov 08 2019. 2-1 Checkers win. Ned stopped 20 of 21. Driedger stopped 27 of 29. Markison scored a SH goal in 15th minute of the 3rd for the game winner.

Apr 6th 2019. 5-3 checkers loss. Ned stopped 19 of 23. Driedger stopped 33 of 36. Necas had a goal and an assist. Springfield broke the tie in the 15th minute of the 3rd and then scored a EN 3 minutes later to seal it.

November 21st 2017: 4-2 checkers win. Ned Stopped 21 of 23. Driedger stopped 29 of 32. Belleville scored the first 2 of the game. Checkers scored one each period to take the lead and then Kuok potted the 2nd goal of the 3rd, an empty netter, to seal it. Saarela scored two of the goals.

Canes are 2-5 in the 2nd game of the 2 game series. Florida is 6-1.

Lines are the same so, yay, still silly lines.

I like the effort. However we have learned that Any effort expended now tends to have a poor showing on the ice .

Yeah, waiting to avoid a jinx is overrated. Let's just talk about the game. Ned is in net tonight, and no other lineup changes. Hopefully we win again, loser point or none, doesn't matter that much.
YA READY TO GET JUMPED IF THIS GO AWRY?

THE LAST PERSON WHO HAS DONE THIS WAS ME AND THE ONLY REASON I GOT AWAY WITH IT WAS A CANES WIN.

...
TIME TO DESTROY SOME FU^KING FLORIDAN FAERIES FROM SPACE. WHY?

TO GET VENGEANCE ON THEM. AND FOR GLORY OF IRELAND.

FAERIES KIDNAP CHILDREN AND MURDER LIVESTOCK.

Knocking on wood is thought to come from the folklore of the ancient Indo-Europeans, or possibly people who predated them, who believed that trees were home to various spirits.

Touching a tree would invoke the protection or blessing of the spirit within.

Somehow, this tradition has survived long after belief in these spirits had faded away.
