[vorbis]

Nedeljkovic with the save of the millenium to keep it 1-0

 

[The Faulker 27]

Holy shit Ned.

 

[vorbis]

sooooo much tentative puck handling by the Checkers in their own zone

 

[Surrounded By Ahos]

Ned

 

[HisIceness]

Just saw that Ned save. Ice-level angle doesn't do it justice.

Still though, holy balls what a stop

 

[WreckingCrew]

sooooo much tentative puck handling by the Checkers in their own zone

It's been a theme against Chicago...it's the reason the puck was in our zone for almost 3 min the other night, we were so tentative on every chance to clear that we never did.

Also, this ice is dog****

Also, we need to take advantage of the lack of penalties being called and start turning holds/obstruction/interference into odd man rushes like Chicago seems to be excelling at...they're generating several deadly 3 on 2s and 2 on 1s that way (combined with their more veteran roster and some hella acceleration/speed out of their guys)

Really wish one of the local Charlotte stations like WCCB or WAXN would pick up the rest of this series. I mean come on, are people really watching reruns of Big Bang Theory?

It really shouldn’t be that hard. Mike Solarte from Spectrum is certainly tweeting about game action, and a few years ago, either Spectrum or Time Warner did air a game or 2 on some idle channels. Too much to ask I guess.

Before Spectrum bought TWC they aired about 4-5 home games, usually in January when crowds were at their peak, on some local event channel in both Charlotte and Raleigh, like channel 1514 or something. Did the same for home playoff games. We had a GDT or two during them, was fun. Not sure why they're not doing that anymore. I get AHL.tv streams games but airing on local TV would draw more eyeballs and interest in the team. The Knights get select home games on WCCB, no reason the Checkers can't do the same for the Calder Cup Finals.

 

[WreckingCrew]

Goat was SO close to getting another there, puck bounced a little too far back for him to tap in

 

[Surrounded By Ahos]

Geekie!

Or brown?

Either way great play by bean.

 

[WreckingCrew]

POWERPLAY GOAAAAAAAAAL!! Bean rifled it, might have gotten tipped by Chicago? kinda knuckled in

 

[HisIceness]

2-0 Chex!

They're calling it for Bean, but Geekie looked like he thought he tipped it. Whatever, 2-0!

 

[WreckingCrew]

Damn Bish nearly got a breakaway goal

 

[My Special Purpose]

If Bean and Necas get *no* better on the power play between now and the 2019-20 NHL season, they will immediately make our PP1 better.

Gauthier looks like the rest did him good.

Chicago is taking advantage of the last change very well, getting their offensive guys out there against Carrick/Didier.

 

[cptjeff]

Bishop's hands are just as bad in the AHL as they are in the NHL.

 

[vorbis]

the only Checker who has played the puck in the defensive zone like he has a plan is Alex Nedeljkovic

 

[vorbis]

puck is bouncing like they’re playing with a superball

 

[spockBokk]

Fleury has a mean streak...me likey, but don’t take dumb penalties pls...

 

[Cardiac Jerks]

Can’t wait to see this save.

 

[WreckingCrew]

The feed has become almost as bad as the ice...and BAD penalty by Fleury, not necessary at all (though definitely looks like a bit of flopping going on too)

 

[My Special Purpose]

In the past few games I’ve seen at BoJos and this one so far, man has Saarela been unimpressive...

It's hard to explain. He's just the most invisible 30-goal guy ever.

 

[A Star is Burns]

Great shot by Brown on the shorty. Would be nice if it'd shut the whiny announcers up.
