I'm shocked he's kept his gig for so long. He's terrrible.Eddie O is so brutal. Glad he is healthy but he just sucks as an announcer.
I was wondering that too, but I figured they just wanted him in front clearing space and causing chaos.WTF is Ryan Reaves doing out there with < 1 minute left
I thought about that immediately when it happened. My first thought was, "Why aren't the Knights celebrating? They just scored..."Reminds me a lot of this save by Thomas in 2011...
I loved that save too because of the situation but if you watch it closely, Gionta shot back towards the middle of the net rather than to the near side. Definitely helped Thomas on that oneMaybe I’m just grouchy or something but I think those types of saves are over rated. Desperation reach with the paddle and they get lucky.
Edit: As an example, the Thomas OT save on Gionta in game 5 of the Habs series that year is more impressive to me than the Downie save above or the Holtby save last night.
Nooo...he smashed that. He did a great job to get a hold of it so clean; that was a super hard play with the puck skipping across the ice and flipping. Now, I can see that maybe he had enough time to stop it and then go up, but when you see the net that wide open you just hammer it in.Didn't get any elevation on it, either -- Downie at least got under it a little bit, and he was aiming it almost perfectly inside the post. Tuch didn't do anything like that. It was a terrible shot.
