GDT: Game 6 | Toronto @ Columbus | 7:30 PM EST

[Seedtype]

Pretty good start, and Tarasov has had to stay sharp on a few shots.

 

[stevo61]

This is Brandon Wheat Kings Provorov, I like it

 

[ThirdPeriodTurtle]

Jiricek just made his first impressive defensive move to my eyes and prevented a potential 2-on-1. At least I hope it was Jiricek and my eyes didn't deceive me.

 

[CBJx614]

This is the depth scoring this team needs! Danny and JVR

Problem is we literally don't have any top line scoring! As what was our top line is now multiple lines lol

 

[ThirdPeriodTurtle]

3-0 OLIVIER with a wrister on a 2-on-1 attack! What is going on, man.

 

[MoeBartoli]

Olivier! The bottom 6 are getting it done!

 

[Seedtype]

LASER BEAM FROM OLIVIER

(oh no chili chant already)

 

[aRussian]

Beating their goalie with some pretty mundane shots but we'll take them!

 

[Halfboard]

Omg…….happy & pissed at the same time

 

[ThirdPeriodTurtle]

The only downside to this is that I realized I don't seem to enjoy Mears' goal calls. Oh well. Can't have it all.

 

[stevo61]

And there were some who had him on the outside looking in when making potential lineups in the summer...

 

[CBJx614]

Remember how much people hated the Olivier trade at first....

 

[LJ7]

Need to keep shots coming. Hildeby is not ready tonight. Nicely placed heavy shot from Olivier regardless though.

 

[Halfboard]

The only downside to this is that I realized I don't seem to enjoy Mears' goal calls. Oh well. Can't have it all.

At least he has a goal call & actually notices when someone scores

 

[Jaxs]

Olivier nice shot man.

 

[ColumbusTrill]

Alright can we please hold this lead comfortably and not make this interesting like we always do

 

[Seedtype]

At least he has a goal call & actually notices when someone scores

Honestly Mears is just such a breath of fresh air. I hope he'll mature in a good way for broadcast.

 

[thebus88]

Fantilli was holding all these guys back!!

 

[MoeBartoli]

What an unnecessary penalty. Severson should have just kept bodying him.

 

[DEF]

Olivier works in practice to improve his game. It shows.

 

[stevo61]

Yeah if the coaching staff can keep getting this level of play out of Provorov there is no reason not to look at resigning him

 

[spintheblackcircle]

I like these guys

 

[Halfboard]

Time for Metzold to take a permanent vaca…….

(he’s my new whipping boy I guess)

 

[MoeBartoli]

Yea, this version of Provorov has been excellent. My hope is he can keep this up. And this observation will probably come back to bite me, but JMFJ and Jiricek had a good first period.

 

[Viqsi]

So the good news is that the Stadium Series game is an even-numbered one, so we can expect a pretty good show from the Jackets in the Shoe.
