GDT: Game 14: Coyotes @ Blackhawks - World of Tanks Edition - 6:30 - ESPN+

[MIGs Dog]

Asu about to lose to #5, was up 3-0 early in the 2nd. Hate to see it.

Worst lead in hockey

Is it sexist to say her voice is too soft. I have to turn the volume up.

No, those of us with high frequency hearing loss have a difficult time with female voices. Children as well.

Nope. Modulating your voice for the moment is 90% of calling live action sports and she's bad at it. Not everyone can do it, man or woman.

I missed the first period, I watched ASU go full coyotes. Sounds like I missed 0 actual hockey moments.

No, it's a fair thing to point out. It's one thing about her that I personally prefer, however.

Glad someone mentioned it because this is hard to suffer through the commentary. She is just so flat and monotone and then " A SHOT!!!"

It's honestly curious how these people get these jobs. It's like she is reading us a bedtime story instead of calling a "professional" athletic event. Mitch is awful but at least he has some tension in his delivery throughout the game.

How many breakaways are we going to give up?

 

[XX]

How many breakaways are we going to give up?

A lot because they are learning to play modern pressing hockey, but without the talent to execute passes or beat the goalie clean. Like Keller there.

 

[Summer Rose]

How many breakaways are we going to give up?

More than we want to, but exactly as many as we need to.

Beauty save Wedgie.

 

[SniperHF]

That audio delay tho.

Wedge is mad.

 

[XX]

No point in having a tantrum about something that happened a minute ago Wedgie

 

[SniperHF]

Quality pylonery.

 

[Mosby]

LOL at Wedgewood pushing away the puck when the linesman bent down to get it

 

[MIGs Dog]

How about putting a body on Kane.

 

[MIGs Dog]

Some people probably find him annoying, but I always liked Pat Foley.

 

[XX]

No idea where they are seeing a potential stoppage

 

[awfulwaffle]

What is going on?

 

[XX]

What is going on?

Tried to reverse the goal by saying the play should have been stopped on the delayed penalty. Didn't work.

That isn't reviewable as a stoppage.

 

[SniperHF]

The Coyotes should be issued a 2 min just for annoying me.

 

[MIGs Dog]

What is going on?

I think we are losing

 

[Summer Rose]

I actually saw something on the replay that I'm not sure the announcers of any of you saw, which might mean I'm smacked out of my mind: it actually looked like the puck entered the net earlier than the "actual" goal, but Wedgewood was possibly interfered with on the play. So, the challenge could have been that they thought there should have been an earlier stoppage for an invalid goal, which means nothing afterwards was supposed to count.

 

[XX]

Either nobody at ESPN has noticed they are broadcasting the Play by play audio feed instead of the correctly delayed one or they just don't care

Take your pick

What our play by play announcer lacks in voice inflection, she makes up for in the ability to see several seconds into the future.
