GDT: Devils at Canes, 3/9 7:00PM

[tomdundo]

Anyways, back to hockey discussion.

Would the world explode if Terry lit up Hedberg tonight?

Called it...that is if one goal (so far) counts as lighting a goalie up.

 

[Blueline Bomber]

Glad to see Terry get that goal. Nice sticklift to create the chance.

 

[SeaBasstian]

Staal standing alone atop the NHL in +/- at +19

 

[Datsyuk Prospect]

It's actually Syomin, unless of course you are implying something else

Thanks for the correction, I remember seeing it spelled that way somewhere just don't remember where, must have been confused with Varlamov and just automatically assumed

But you're right.

I love seeing Semin tap his stick to trick the other team

 

[DougieSmash]

I wonder if Chris Terry could be better version of Chad Larose? Is he physical at all? Can he play above average defense and bring some hits to the table?

i think being that its his first, and it was a pretty skilled move, yeah we can consider it

 

[Drivebytrucker]

I'm glad other people are seeing that Sangs and Corvo are playing pretty darn well for the last few games. Corvo for the last month pretty much.....

Not that we couldn't improve our Defense, but the boys have really stepped up lately.

 

[DougieSmash]

Rutherford actually won the Zach Parise sweepstakes by not acquiring Zach and ending up with Semin. Go figure.

QFT. Hahahaha.

It's a low percentage thing, but occasionally it works. I've been fooled on that one before, and have used it myself. Haven't ever gotten a drop pass off of it, but I have gotten guys to hold up and look around when they had a great chance for a scoring play, so I count that as a success.

 

[Novacane]

Damn. How did that not go in for Skinny?

Well, now it doesn't matter.

 

[Lucky Lindy]

Skinner boy!

 

[WhiteTrashAmerican]

I don't think I've ever seen a player make more blind cross ice passes than Kovalchuk.

 

[sticknpuck]

hahaha the post saves the goal and then one rolls right in. Way to go skinner!

 

[Datsyuk Prospect]

Wow.. Skinner is having some bad luck tonight.

Edit: Soon as i posted that BAM goal by Skinner.

I think just learning each other's tendencies and getting back up to NHL speed has helped a lot.

And that floats in! Skinner, I guess?

Edit: No guess, and not as bouncy a goal as I thought. Nice work by Skinner!

 

[Datsyuk Prospect]

And goal!!!

 

[Anton Babchuk]

Anyone who can complete a pass is a better version of LaRose

 

[DaleCooper]

That's ridiculous.

I remember when Datsyuk did it successfully to Wallin

 

[rocky7]

Anton skinner!!!!

I just noticed your location. Never did before. Anyhow, THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[SeaBasstian]

wow talk about retribution. awesome pass to jordan that doesnt get converted. wide open shot and hits the post, finally gets it to go in.

 

[Datsyuk Prospect]

I remember when Datsyuk did it successfully to Wallin

Well Datsyuk is just... Datsyuk.

 

[AD Skinner]

I don't think there's a team out there that I enjoy watching Carolina beat more than New Jersey.

 

[Lucky Lindy]

Solid game.

Of course Montreal losing right now to Tampa. Why not?
