Is it weird that I can recite what McClane says in that clip word for word? (without playing it first ofc lol)

 

[OD99]

Well done! This is a great start.

Let's go boys!!!!

Not at all! You are in good company.

Who starts in net for us? Will we see Merilainen?

We will probably have a better idea after practices are done. I'm just going off projections for Demko. No official word yet.

Yep, that’s good. Just curious.

Players are going to play super hard for Coach Travis Green because it’s his old place where he didn’t get the recognition and they want respect on his name and theirs.

I’ll say Merlinen starts to give Ullmark the extra day of rest and starting in Vancouver is about as hostile and envriniwnmtn as their is in the NHL so everything after this will seem easy, and he has no pressure with this winning streak is he loses no big deal.

I’ll call a 4-4 OT game with a Sanderson OT a goal

 

[The Waffler]

Xmas party tonight so I’ll be opting out of this one. Shouldn’t miss much, it’s basically an easy win. Almost for sure guaranteed, probably.

Keep and eye out for bearded Germans buddy

 

[Silky Johnson]

Top lines are due for a big night. If Ullmark starts I'm calling 8-1. If its Merilainen 7-3. Stützle hat trick either way.

Welcome to the party pal!

If Die Hard is a Christmas movie because it's set during Christmas then LOTR are Christmas movies too because the fellowship departs Rivendell on December 25.

If by my life or death I can protect you, I will. You have my candy cane.

Lethal Weapon..the first one? Wasn't that during Christmas

 

[StoicSensFan]

Fun fact, Hans Gruber was Hamonic's D coach growing up.

It's very much a Christmas movie with how it handles difficult family dynamics that we all must navigate this time of the year.

It doesn't just incidentally take place at Christmas. It's a key part of the plot.

It's a very progressive film for the 80s, with the woman as the top earner in the family, and the main terrorist being Scandinavian.

We sit in a Wildcard spot. I figure it will take 7 wins to get them in the mix for top 3 in the Atlantic. I looked at the standings, them went to Natural Stat Trick. Broke out the old calculator and did the math. Came out with 80085. That equals 7 wins. Same as before, we subtract 1 for a win, add 1 for a loss, add .5 for overtime/so loss. Let's go.

Seems the streak started when we lost a game we maybe should've won. And we might've won the last one that we maybe should've lost. Hopefully not a leading indicator. How long we can keep a good thing going. Find a way Sens.

The power of reuniting the pizza line broke the curse

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

I want a Sens blowout to exacerbate little Peteys and Miller's rift.

Help me understand...

Why is Formenton still listed as an injured player by Sportsnet? Though Ottawa may retain his rights(?), he isn't under contract. I just don't think it's necessary to continue posting his name.

Abramov is a healthy scratch

Ok Tocchet, you're officially on my naughty list.
