Good idea actually. Might try that.

The downsides are that the audio quality is not as good (stream bitrate and lack of speaker balance control if you have a 5.1 setup) and you end up 10 seconds or so behind the real-time GDT/NHL.com Gamecenter.

It’s worked out well for me otherwise. If you’re motivated, it’s worth the trade off.

Yeah, this is the way playoffs have always been (well, since they started broadcasting every playoff game nationally around 2010). During round 1, local broadcasters have rights in local markets, but every game has a national broadcast and national broadcast crew for everyone else. After that, it's just straight up national broadcasts for everyone.

And we're opening the playoffs for the entire league at home. I like that we're in the big international spotlight for once. (just, ya know, don't f*** it up. f*** the Bruins up instead)

Based on tweets this morning, going to guess these are the lines:

Svech-Aho-Jarvis
Domi-Trocheck-Turbo
Nino-Jordo-Fast
Martinook-Kotkaniemi-Necas

Slavin-TDA
Skjei-Pesce
Cole-Smith

Raanta
Kochetkov

Scratches: Lorentz, Stepan, Bear
This is the perfect line up for us (minus the injury to Freddy). Stepan or Bear can step in if there is a injury. Lets go Canes!

Canes in 6.

BREAKING NEWS: I have just signed a Bandwagon Fan Contract with the Canes for the 2022 playoffs. They met my hefty demands as my elite bandwagon fan status was confirmed back in 2019 when I was the first overall pick in that years HF Bandwagon Fan Draft by Columbus and played a vital role in arguably the biggest playoff upset in NHL history as the Jackets swept Tampa. This was what I demanded:

Ticketmaster also set single game tickets at more than 2x the STM price, so I'm not surprised it isn't sold out. Single game tickets are absurd this year.
I don't know what the STM price is, but TickPick has tickets for tonights game starting at $52 (including all fees).

edit: that might include a last minute discount; tickets for Wed night start at $71 (all in)

If I’m blocked out of buying playoff tickets when I can actually go, someone is getting kicked in the ding ding.
Just let me know when mang. STHs get to buy before general public.
Dave unavailible?
Trust me, nobody wants that hot mess in net. Might have worked better when I was closer to Scott Darling size when I was just fat and couldn't play. Now I just can't play.

I don't care how we beat Boston, but if deep gluteal syndrome isn't their chief medical complaint after tonight & this series, then we're not kicking their ass in a manner befitting southerners.
(Sidebar: KITH starts a new series on the 13th of this month on Prime video, 5 days after Boston is eliminated.)
