fired up...center ice is working tonight!

Let's see

What Goglioski can do tonight.  Don't expect him to break the bank, but it's always exciting to see the new guys working to impress the front office.

It's funny
How a bull attacks on red, yet hockey players attack on every color BUT red.

This

has ultimately been the saving grace of the Red Wings' home jerseys.

by FrankD on Feb 13, 2008 7:44 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

a few too many

close calls on Conklin already

by FrankD on Feb 13, 2008 7:47 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

yup

there's the obligatory Sid in the press box shot

by FrankD on Feb 13, 2008 7:50 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

funny

said those exact words to my dad!

never fails

They just always have to cut to him at least once

by FrankD on Feb 13, 2008 7:59 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

sure hope so

Is he in the line-up tonight? Didn't see him out there yet.

Malkin Learns English Vids

I wasnt sure if you were joking or not last game but if you werent u def need the one i spoke of. So many awkward silences...Classic!

by kellyfisher on Feb 13, 2008 8:01 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

i search youtube

every day tfor new ones, but it's just not up there yet.

by FrankD on Feb 13, 2008 8:02 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

WTF!?!?!?!

is going on here?????????/

by kellyfisher on Feb 13, 2008 8:02 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

seriously...

this is embarassing.  I knew the bruines shot a lot, but I didn't know they'd score just as much.

by FrankD on Feb 13, 2008 8:02 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

They

look like total shit tonight! They're taking hits and giving up the puck. This game needs to turn around quick!

by kellyfisher on Feb 13, 2008 8:09 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

well

If there's one thing we've seen this year, it's that the Pens know how to fire it up in between periods. They also know how to come crashing down in the third too, but we're not gonna go there right now...

by FrankD on Feb 13, 2008 8:11 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

wake up boys...

Not focused right now.  Therrien probably chewing through his molars.

Sobutka is a nice little player.  Can't leave guys like that open.

by killer93 on Feb 13, 2008 8:04 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

On the Pens feed

They were talking to Therrien while the game was in progress.  I was waiting to see how he'd react if the Bruins scored during the interview,  I'd suspect some sort of vulgar word would find its way onto the air.

geeez whitney

seven d dressed...that's a good way to grab pine for the rest of the period

Chara vs Laraque...one of them

by FrankD on Feb 13, 2008 8:12 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

was there for that one...

four rows from the glass.  EVERYONE stood for that fight

by killer93 on Feb 13, 2008 8:14 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

Did you

stand up, look at the camera and wave when the puck crossed your section of the ice?

by FrankD on Feb 13, 2008 8:19 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

tried...but

there were some big dudes behind me, and I think it was best that I didn't

by killer93 on Feb 13, 2008 8:23 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

Not exactly similar

but my sister was at the last Devs Pens game reppin the black and gold. She said some drunk Pens player fell down four rows and smashed his face.  Broken nose and picked up his teeth.  Rather than help him up, two Devils fans laughed and made fun of him, told my sister to 'go home' (even though she lives at the school two blocks away) and picked up what was left of his fries and started eating them.  Dirty bastards.  

by FrankD on Feb 13, 2008 8:25 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

wow

bruins fans in the lower bowl were actually pretty cool.  I've been in the 300's there too, and that's where you find what we affectionately call the "Massholes"

by killer93 on Feb 13, 2008 8:28 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

hah

yeah, Massholes.  I've heard that term thrown around when I visited a friend in Maine.  Pretty good.

by FrankD on Feb 13, 2008 8:31 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

Figures

Sabutka gets his first goal against the Pens.  Just like Carey Price recorded his first win against the Pens.  Just like how Rupp got his first two of the season against the Pens.  

If you want to get on the map, the solution speaks for itself.  Play against the Penguins.

by FrankD on Feb 13, 2008 8:27 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

ouch

crosscheck to throat....

by killer93 on Feb 13, 2008 8:37 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

did they have a team dinner last night?

It looks like they've all got heavy legs tonight

by killer93 on Feb 13, 2008 8:51 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

where the hell
was Whitney passing to on the PP?

by FrankD on Feb 13, 2008 9:02 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

love the intermission show

great find Frank!

Watching the bruins intermission - kathryn tappen is amazing.  Much easier on the eyes than Jay Caufield

by killer93 on Feb 13, 2008 9:08 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

he's getting better

with his English.  Maybe, like Casandra from Wayne's World, she is learning it from the Police Academy movies.

by FrankD on Feb 13, 2008 9:15 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

hah
Army leveling Chara was the sandwich of the game.

by FrankD on Feb 13, 2008 9:27 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

i've decided

THe Bruins and their playing style are on pace to be the next generation of boring Devils games.

by FrankD on Feb 13, 2008 9:28 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

The Bruins

are dominating the neutral zone.  Absolutely shutting down the Pens.

by FrankD on Feb 13, 2008 9:29 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

Missed

scoring opportunity and a penalty? :(

by kellyfisher on Feb 13, 2008 9:30 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

luckily

and THANKFULLY...no knee-to-knee on that Malkin cheap shot.

by FrankD on Feb 13, 2008 9:32 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

true

that! they need to cut this lead in half. Couldnt tell they were one of the best in the league in PP in this game.

by kellyfisher on Feb 13, 2008 9:34 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

OMG

why didnt he shoot that!!!!!!!!!

by kellyfisher on Feb 13, 2008 9:35 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

that's all the evidence Therrien needs

to bench him next game and put him on the trading block.  Unbelievable.

by FrankD on Feb 13, 2008 9:36 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

how

do have that good of a look at the net and pass it back to the blue line? WTF!!!!!!??????? sorry im pissed off typing right now. and where is the penalty for the christensen hit!

by kellyfisher on Feb 13, 2008 9:38 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

The thing with Christensen is...

His head is at Chara's elbow height.  I don't know if refs consider that, but it didn't help that he tried to check Chara and put his own face into the elbow.

by FrankD on Feb 13, 2008 9:39 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

my b

i didnt see the replay. again angry typing. ;)

by kellyfisher on Feb 13, 2008 9:44 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

it's all good

no need to apologize.  I'm just saying - the call can really go either way.  Comes down to the ref.

by FrankD on Feb 13, 2008 9:44 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

he's really struggling tonight

and he tries to hit Chara.  Not smart.

BTW, Letang and Goligoski on the ice at the same time?  The Giveaway Twins!

by killer93 on Feb 13, 2008 9:37 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

no doubt

not impressed by Gogli's play so far.  

His pass back to center was one of the most ridiculous plays I've seen all year.

by FrankD on Feb 13, 2008 9:38 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

definitely

not showing much more than his skating skills tonight.  And man, do we need somebody else to shoot.

We just got a really bad call go our way.  Come on boys

by killer93 on Feb 13, 2008 9:46 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

THERE YA GO

there's one.  Now let's get movin for the second one.

by killer93 on Feb 13, 2008 9:58 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

BS

penalty on Malone

by FrankD on Feb 13, 2008 9:59 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

wow

way to be dramatic at the end there Malkin

by FrankD on Feb 13, 2008 10:00 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

no

chit. i was screaming at the tv like an idiot! heartbreaking!

by kellyfisher on Feb 13, 2008 10:01 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

better team lost tonight

not being sharp in the first period really cost us.  Bruins have Thomas, Chara, and a bunch of AHLers, but they deserved the win.

Christensen was awful.  Whole team a bit slow. Golgi apparatus not quite ready for prime time yet
