Back on topic, I am excited to see if Pyyhtiä can follow up his breakout game with another solid performance. I don't expect he's ever gonna be a 20 goal scorer but now having notched a goal and played so well I have to think he's bursting with confidence.

It would be great if Pyyhtiä became a mainstay. He needs better finishing - shooting the puck more like he and everybody says, I guess. But the line has played great so fingers crossed.

If the team was healthy I'd say with confidence he wouldn't be but luckily for him this team is never healthy

Over/under on JJ head fakes? I had forgotten it was his signature move until watching him again this season. One of my favorite all time CBJ players!

Princess Bride is a cult classic in many places in Europe too, for example it's revered in Finland in the same way (maybe just a smaller audience). Here's a Reddit thread about whether it's a popular movie or not (depends on your view, seems like a cult classic in many countries but not mainstream outside of late 80s/early 90s young adults I imagine). Doesn't seem like "Princezna Nevěsta" was too popular in Czechoslovakia though.

Yeah I'm bored waiting for the game. :D

Viqsi, I can quote Princess Bride all night long.

I was in a workout class one day and I grunted at the exercise we were doing. The instructor laughed at my grunt. I said "You mock my pain, never do it again". She had no clue but two other women in the class laughed out loud.

I could probably rewrite the script from memory. I also do a surprisingly good impression of Vizzini.

The true fans know, by the way, that there was in fact a way for him to win the Battle Of Wits.

My sister bought us a copy of the book. I read it aloud to my wife using appropriate voices for all the characters. It was a blast.

1-0 SEVERSON redeems himself. Blue line shot that doesn't seem to hit anything but finds top cheese and Varlamov has finally been beaten. But let's see if this is overturned...

Wasn't even officially a goal.
