GDT: Game 69: Columbus vs. Tampa Bay | 3/13 3PM EDT

[NotWendell]

Alright Bishop. You wanna face wash our guys? Prepare to get run!

 

[We Want Ten]

Damn.

 

[We Want Ten]

Bishop sold the hell out of that.

 

[Doggy]

If the roles had been reversed we would have wanted it waived off too. Not a bad call.

 

[EspenK]

Good thing its an afternoon game and DST to boot...I can stay awake.

 

[blahblah]

I'm pretty impressed how JK has manged to turn one of our strengths into a weakness in a couple of seasons - faceoffs.

On a side note, I'm kind of tired of defense pushing opposing players into their own goalie to get goals waived off.

 

[CBJWerenski8]

It's a good call by the rule but Bishop hooked onto Boone with his stick, and rode him out of the crease. He had no intention of playing or trying to save that puck.

That is the same issue I had with it. And Bishop clearly taking a dive.

This game isn't much to write about...
Seems to favor Tampa

And there it is!

 

[We Want Ten]

Edgy game just got edgier.

 

[ReggieRed]

So what exactly was Bob doing before Stamkos' goal? When the goal was scored, he did not have his goal stick so I rewound the DVR and watched how he lost it and it looked like he simply threw it into the corner with no one was around him. Didn't see anyone bump him or anything....not sure what that was all about.

 

[aRussian]

Is Mike Smith in goal? I hate acting and really wish that rule was hammered down

 

[ReggieRed]

Sweet move by Foligno.

 

[Johansen2Foligno]

I saw Prout got a misconduct. What did he do?

 

[EspenK]

I saw Prout got a misconduct. What did he do?

According to Rimer he "joined" the scrum with a good straight right to one of the Lightning's heads. He was late and didn't try to just grab someone; he threw a stiff jab.

 

[ReggieRed]

I saw Prout got a misconduct. What did he do?

Came flying into the scrum after Foligno and Bishop got tangled up and led with a gloved right hand to the side of a TB player's head.

 

[We Want Ten]

I saw Prout got a misconduct. What did he do?

...nothing...

Eh scrum after Foligno ran Smith, probably threatened to kill someone.

 

[ReggieRed]

That's about the fourth time a TB defender shoved one of our forwards into Bishop. If I was Bishop, I'd be telling them to clear my crease, not push them into it.

Dubinsky accidentally pushed it out of his hands when chasing a Tampa player behind the net

 

[Halfboard]

shootout showcase....

 

[NotWendell]

shootout showcase....

I personally LIKE being cued for a bathroom break!

 

[NotWendell]

We need someone who will make the Columbus Blue Jackets GREAT AGAIN! oh... err..... wait!

 

[NotWendell]

Yep. That's Prout.

 

[We Want Ten]

Bob having flashbacks to the start of the year on the Prout pass lol.
