GDT: Hockey Day in America (NBC)

[End on a Hinote]

Didn't see a thread on this, so he it is.

Honouring the 1980 USA team today, will be interesting to hear what they have to say. Didn't know Bob Suter had passed away. It's almost eerie how the two members of that team, Wells and Herb Brooks, both passed away during/after a hockey related event.

This dumb ****, Lauren Hart or w/e can't sing for ****.

It's great that about a 1/5 of the screen is taken up by notifications letting me know what churches are open and closed

 

[Koized]

Giroux with a beauty dive for the call, classy.

 

[mantis toboggan]

This dumb ****, Lauren Hart or w/e can't sing for ****.

She's actually one of the best anthem singers in the league. Today wasn't her best performance

 

[SJSharksfan39]

So weird hearing Cuthbert call a game on NBC.

 

[hockey diva]

Our local station couldn't be bothered to start the coverage on time so I missed the pregame. I don't think Wells is dead since I saw clips of an interview with him. Suter passed away this summer.

Rinaldo

 

[Xavier Laflamme*]

LOL Rinaldo is such a POS..what a horrible and obvious attempt to elbow someone and he fails terribly and crashes into the end boards...the only disappointing thing is that he didn't severely injure himself...

Rinaldo

The league would be a better place without him.

 

[mel]

Not a good hit

 

[Roo Mad Bro]

****ing Niskanen with a knee on knee hit on Couturier.

 

[canadianmagpie]

Definitely looking at a suspension for that, yet only a minor?

 

[AD1066]

Not a good hit

Need to see more replays, but I don't think it was intentional on Niskanen's part.

 

[Nei1ey*]

Niskanen has been making the Flyers his *****es this year. First Laughton now Couterier, next up Giroux.

 

[mouser]

Didn't look like Couturier's knee got hyperextended there. And even the MCL flex didn't look that serious from replay. Obviously he's not putting weight on the leg though.

 

[mel]

Need to see more replays, but I don't think it was intentional on Niskanen's part.

I don't think he did it on purpose either. Two minutes was the right call.

 

[Buzzo]

Need to see more replays, but I don't think it was intentional on Niskanen's part.

Looked like Couturier was trying to dodge the hit, still knee on knee but didn't look intentional.

 

[Claude Reigns]

Niskanen has been making the Flyers his *****es this year. First Laughton now Couterier, next up Giroux.

Probably still thinks he plays for Pittsburgh.

 

[Mayo Masseuse]

Haha Niskanen, you dirty *****. Oh well.
Why are the caps consistently a group of *******?

Niskanen has been making the Flyers his *****es this year. First Laughton now Couterier, next up Giroux.

An illegal hit is Niskanen making Couturier his *****?

 

[Koized]

That wasn't a knee by Niskanen. He didn't even stick it out. Couturier had his leg extended. Was a BS call.

 

[trick9]

Not sure how people see that as dirty hit.

Couturier tries to dodge the hit but doesn't get out of the way in time. Niskanen didn't stick his knee out.

 

[AD1066]

Not sure how people see that as dirty hit.

Frustration mostly, hope Couturier is all right though.

 

[blinds]

Lol are you serious?
