Post-Game Talk: The Powerhouse at New Jersey | 01/31/19 - 7PM - MSG (Post Game Starts ~450)

[PlamsUnlimited]

Sports play by play and commentary has such latitude in personality. Always liked the variety in play by play especially. Hockey always stood out that way more than other sports for me. Off the top of my head, some NHL broadcast teams I really hate though, Kings and Penguins (are Penguins better now, dunno, I know the Kings are really crap), Panthers with Potvin doing colour commentary (is he still?).
The Devils I find to be more just wacky and non-cerebral. A bit ridiculous, adds to the desired non-conformity.
I will have to listen to Erika and Bryce, can't say I am familiar.

Bryce is their Steve, he makes some good points and talks a lot about some on ice plays and tendencies and nuances of playing defense especially. Erika gels well with him.

My least favorite broadcast is the Islanders, theirs makes my head bleed.

Stuck at the ballet tonight. How do we look?

Rangers are still wearing tutus

It's the Mika Zibanejad show

 

[CasusBelli]

Rangers are still wearing tutus

And the ballet is pretty to watch ...

 

[NCRanger]

Okay, that MSG 150 makes me feel old.

That Russian coach with the name they cannot pronounce played on the 1980 Olympic team. And he has a grandson in the KHL.

1980 wasn’t that long ago, was it?

 

[CasusBelli]

One of my favorites. This team without him and CK — that’s 50 kinds of ugly right there.

Almost 40 years. Can’t believe it.

This joke is generations old but never gets old

He's crushing the hearts of teenaged girls right now. Should be on the cover of Teen Beat

Someone with more talent than me should edit Mika into this:

Where do the Devils find all these rando players?

Where do the Devils find all these rando players?

Which ones

 

[Rempe73]

I’m sorry, but Brian Boyle is pretty overrated.

 

[Zibanejbread]

KREIDER!

 

[thethirdhockeyman91]

What happened with Zuccs foot infection?

 

[Zibanejbread]

Zibby playing with so much confidence

 

[Leonardo87]

Kreider!! Great shift from that entire line.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Nice play by Mika!

 

[Rempe73]

Words cannot describe my love of Zibanejad recently.

 

[Kakko]

Zib is SO GOOD

 

[trilobyte]

"It got by Kinkaid"
Yes, yes it did

273 dog years

I’ve had four dogs in that time frame...
First dog was 1 1/2 then. She died in ‘91.
Adopted a puppy in ‘92. He lived until 2008.
I adopted a 7 year old dog in Raleigh in ‘05. She died in 2012.
Adopted a 3 year old later that year and still have the lunatic.

 

[Ori]

wow Kreider scores 3-2 lead!

 

[aufheben]

Holy shit the Devils blow.
