GDT: Movember 3rd - Flames @ Blackhawks [5:30pm on Sportsnet West]

[MarkGio]

Yes!!

What timing!

 

[MC Ride]

Nice

 

[King In The North]

We're back

 

[Lunatik]

Berra got exposed cheating, and great tip by Cammy

 

[St Wardo]

that looked legal to me eh?

 

[JurassicTunga]

haha, what? that was quick.

Nice tip, Cammy!

 

[MuffinMerc]

That was sick.

 

[stlflamesfan]

Nice tip Cammy!

 

[Straight Fire]

Yay Cammalleri, I eat %10 of the force of my words. Nice tip!

 

[MarkGio]

I like seeing so much chatter between Flames players. They're very much at work

 

[DCDM]

Cammy!

 

[MarkGio]

Baertschi needs to shoot more. Shoot low and give up a rebound

 

[MuffinMerc]

Smith has a good head, he made a nice play to slow things down. Put Butler in that situation he would have forced a pass and turn the puck over.

Hey Abbotsford Heat seeing as you watch the Heat games the most out of all of us, does Berra sometimes cheat like that in the AHL or is that a rare play for him?

I just hate seeing goaltenders cheat the shot/pass like that so I was wondering if it's a behaviour that needs to be coached out. Also, I understand he could be nervous (but doesn't show it) but still not an acceptable behaviour. IMO, outside of initiating a poke-check save, a good goaltender always needs to have the best eyes on the ice and the most patience.

 

[MarkGio]

Lots of action both ways

 

[MuffinMerc]

Good shift by Backlund.

 

[InfinityIggy]

Good shift by Backlund.

Nope.

 

[MuffinMerc]

Nope.

How silly of me. Time to bench the poor *******.

Yes he cheated. He was also very good for 20 shots and Kane is a tricky one. Plus he was screened very well

it's not a play I have seen too often from him

 

[MarkGio]

Both teams are playing a clean game.

 

[exeswiss]

it was a tricky play he was well screened and i think he sensed the lone player on the left of him. so there 2 decisions (both with zero sight): 1. go to the left and may be shot right. or 2. stay at the right side and see the lone player shoot the empty net. both decisions have their risks.

 

[Bouma Fett*]

What did Berra do and how was it cheating? Was it an illegal play?

 

[St Wardo]

for a minute i thought wideman was gonna shoot it the wrong way lol

He was expecting Kane to pass so he start moving early and Kane shot instead.
