GDT: SCF Game #6 Avs vs Bolts: How bout "Obstructing our way to a Game 7 one crosscheck at a time?” Edition

[Filip Chytil]

Gotta kill this

 

[Cmox]

Not sure how here anyone is rooting for Tampa. They play such a bullshit game..holding, clutching, grabbing, obstruction, crosschecking. Just really ugly hockey.

Only bc it’ll show our very young Rangers were stopped by the best.

 

[Boris Zubov]

That’s playoff hockey baybee

Only because the NHL has 3 rulebooks. One for the regular season, another for playoffs, & one that is completely f***ing random.

Right before the penalty, Avs broke the Bolts' trap 3 consecutive times without difficulty.

 

[Boris Zubov]

Point sold that...didn't look like it got him.

50% of all hi sticks are like that, no? Zapruder replays, constantly.

Luckily, you can still take public transit (bus) to Union Station and then walk to the arena in Denver. That's what I did when I went there. Ottawa is a freaking mess. I've taken the bus there and it's a pain. Drove and was stuck in traffic for hours. Having arenas in downtown areas are nice.

The only way to get to the Hurricanes arena is drive. It isn’t awful to get out of, mainly because there are multiple exits, and people are going in multiple directions.

The Meadowlands was AWFUL!

Now, Atlanta was downtown, yet you wouldn’t have wanted to use public transportation, because it just wasn’t safe.

The Dylan original isn’t a bad song. This cover version is terrible.

Bingo

Bingo

I don't have a problem with the cover song, but the message is vague. How do casual fans understand how the Cup works? They're probably asking, "why don't they get to keep the trophy?"

Speed can do that. And a perfect example of why Makar is so much more dangerous than Fox (but also likely why Fox will age better than Makar).

I actually asked that question when I started watching back in the '80s

Vasi is keeping the Bolts in it. Tampa's been dominated.

If we’re talking about song selection, considering that Tampa has won the past two Cups, the lyrics suggest that Colorado is about to break that streak.

Let's me see if I can remember which arenas were easy to get to since they were centrally located downtown:
NYR, BOS, MTL, NJD, PIT, TOR, CBJ, DET, COL, VGK, WSH, BUF, NSH, WPG, MIN

 

[Boris Zubov]

Tampa & these crosschecks is just so obnoxious.

Speed can do that. And a perfect example of why Makar is so much more dangerous than Fox (but also likely why Fox will age better than Makar).

I'm not so sure about the bolded. Fox needs to add some muscle to ensure his longevity.

I believe SJ too

 

[Boris Zubov]

Those sounds of the game is just riveting TV.

 

[Kravtsov420]

I’ll be honest, how is that not interference. That’s crazy

 

[CLW]

So much interinterinterinterference from Tampa

Except football teams don’t keep the Vince Lombardi trophy.

NBA teams don’t keep the O’Brien trophy.

Baseball teams get a replica trophy.

The Stanley Cup is closest to European soccer trophies.

That’s a fair point. He’s not the tallest guy, and he does get hit a lot, so you’re likely right.

 

[will1066]

They get 2 days off before Game 2? And no travel? Damn

 

[Boris Zubov]

So much interinterinterinterference from Tampa

I can't take it.

There was their chance...
