second game indeed. hope its better than the first....

how long will bill, dano and sal ramble on about whatever the f*** during play with zero actual play call.

i hope they get this cramming in of a million things to say and get the obliviousness of the situation out of their system in preseason.

call the f***ing game and know when to shut up

are bill and dano even calling this one? thought it was just the montreal feed on this one

It's practice, but even if the squad is missing players it would be nice to get a win.

On paper this is the weakest preseason opponent...

Our lineup will be just as weak.

I am interested to see Jack, Timo and Nemec.

no injuries, thank you please.

if one of the relative unknowns wants to step up and look great that’d be cool i guess but uh…. i would bet against it.

Don't think so.

It doesn't even appear to be on ESPN+ :/ I guess Montreal is not broadcasting it either?

not to be too dramatic, but a loss here would be pretty devastating. we absolutely cannot start the preseason 0-2, that would set the tone for a pretty rotten season.

looking at the statistics for teams that have started off 0-2 in the preseason (going back to the 1971-72 season) we can see a troubling trend- of the 671 teams that went 0-2 to start the preseason in that time frame, just 112 went on the make the playoffs. and i'll remind you that if we miss the playoffs, we likely see a GM change before next season. add in a couple of more 0-2 preseason starts in the coming years, and we're suddenly facing the possibility of relocation.

we can't be giving up on games this early, or it will come back to bite us down the line. the road to the playoffs starts tonight. LGD
