He is Maaaaaar...io?
Oooo suspense.
Don't know much about the credibility of the dying words of some douchebag dead in a bathtub...
SO ANYWAY, can we stop riding the "hot hand" and get back to a schedule here boss? Reason why I hate that is it puts the emphasis on the wrong syllable where such an emphasis is not needed. A mailed in Thrashers team, a tired (crappy) Islanders team, a sucky Lundqvist who randomly steals games, and the Islanders fully awake again... These were tools of practice. But you're not going to walk into Pittsburgh with a flu-ridden team and hope to win on the efforts of Kyle Chipchura alone. Though he did come close, just Guimauve is fucking useless...CALL UP RUSSELL OR WHITE! GIVE CHIPPER LINEMATES! I mean notice how a line of Chips/Patches/Dagger buzz? Yea, where is that? If anything we can only hope Gomez breathed on a few of them and left a parting gift.
BLARGH!
- I missed you Pricey!
- Check out the stickhandling. On his knees, after a tricky bouncy dump in that would have gone in if your name was Pavelec. Sees a Pen coming for him. So whilst off balanced and holding his stick high close the black he quickly flicks the puck to the glass and out of harm's way. Skills.
- Check out the other guy's stickhandling sending it right to a DoG penalty. Pleky scores! Merci MAF!
- Crosby tried to make his third a highlight reel but lost the puck in his feet. Showoff. Instead the third was a garbage goal that needed to be reviewed in case he kicked it in.
- Pleky vs Guerin? I laughed.
- Gionta looked a little drunk.
- Gorges was the only defenceman with a hit. You know you're sick when...?
- I guess Coach don't know to put Lapierre against Crosby. He's only been in his face all his life.
- Finally people realize Chipper isn't as slow as you think he is. And woo he's winning faceoffs now!
- That net knocking off penalty was total fucking bogus. And no goalie in the world would be able to stop that shot (unless it was just the two of them out there, but I digress).
- Jaro too small to cover corners. This is the sad fact :(
- Jaro almost pulled a Biron when he ran to the top of the circle to get to the puck first. My heart stopped.
- They really looked sick out there. Well most of them. Metro still looked ready to puke. Fanned on two shots in a row. I would have been happier if someone had thrown up.
- Since the game was out of reach I was hoping Moen would score a hat trick in 5 minutes. That or Price gets a goal, assist, and a fighting major. Gotta watch it when you touch a goalie's head and knock off their masks. They bite!
- RDS highlight of the night: they called McKee "McCabe". Ouch.
- To Chicago!
