GDT: The Quest For The Holy Grail Begins! - Game 1 v Isles @ 12:00EST

[End of Line]

@LOGiK what were we talking about the other day again?

 

[Peat]

Excited for what could be, nervous about what will be.

This team is better than theirs. Just got to keep their cool and prove it again.

 

[Ugene Magic]

How about just making a new path of destruction... People pay too much attention to the past...

The Islanders are two players>>>Barzal and Eberle... That is all...

 

[End of Line]

The bar two blocks from the hotel obliged to put on NBC for me. Except it was some televangelist show.

You don’t love Joel Osteen?

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

Man, I thought this was the 3pm game. At least I get the NBC 30 minute buffer to scrounge up some food.

 

[Gurglesons]

No Malkin. No Varly. Ugh. I feel like our center depth is going to get exposed by playoff Pageau and Nelson.

 

[LOGiK]

I'm outside enjoying the nice weather before the game. Pre-game shows can be so exhausting sometimes unless it's Weekes.

Wat, you don't like watching the copper chef?

That cringe is over with finally... now it's pre-game cringe...
It's on the channel and muted til game time, but I'm doing some things ... mostly getting the lawn stuff ready so I can mow quick after the pens game to be ready for the minny-aves game following the pens game...

Today is going to be a good day... I have the feels =]

[BHD]

This is an affront to sports fandom. I consumed my burger so that I'd be ready for a regular start time.

 

[metalan2]

Lol no Malkin.

 

[Gurglesons]

Another thing I’m worried about. NYI completely nuked Matheson last season in the Florida series.

I see some of the pregame packages that TSN does or some of the discussion on social media and it's really interesting. I don't want to hear Keith Jones opinion. About anything. I would pay not to hear it.

 

[Tom Hanks]

I feel like we are going to smoke them. So calm right now

 

[LOGiK]

@LOGiK what were we talking about the other day again?

Ohhhh this and that.

As long as they stick to hockey talk I dont mind it... once they wander to non hockey so does my attention

 

[BlindWillyMcHurt]

Lol no Malkin.

Set your watch to it, these days.

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

Sid and Geno had 5 months to rehab and rest, as well as get back into shape before the Habs series and immediately went under the knife again after 4 games. Did anyone really expect Geno to be ready?

 

[Headshot77]

Pens in 6. We will have to battle for this one. The Isles give you nothing. I genuinely think this team can get out of the East division, but there are no easy matchups.

 

[Tom Hanks]

 

[Gumbercules]

Pens just need to keep things simple when the Isles have numbers back to clog the neutral zone. We get ourselves into trouble when we try to stickhandle/pass through the neutral zone when an opponent has their D standing up on the blue line and all their forwards in the middle of the ice which is how the Islanders generate all of their offense of off turnvovers. If it's not there, get it deep and let the Islanders try and skate it out to create offence (aside from Barzal, they don't really have anyone that can create) and watch them cough up the puck.

 

[Hockeygod66]

Malkins done if he’s not ready after two months.

 

[Clare2904]

SHIT!

I cast my vote for Isles in 6 and I thought it was for the penguins in 6...

@Clare2904
Work some of that poll mod magic and put my vote where it belongs plz =]

You can now edit, you chump

 

[Gold Diamond]

Malkin and CDS our only injuries?

 

[sovietsanta87]

Let’s do this

I have an undergrad from an excellent private college. A MBA and a CFP designation. I’ve worked hard in my life to try and advance my career while starting a family.
But nothing and I mean NOTHING compares to starting the Anne Hathaway memes on this site.

 

[K Fleur]

Malkin with Zucker is almost as bad as no Malkin.

 

[metalan2]

So when is puck drop?
