10/3- Opening Night @ Dallas

[PedroSpecialK]

There it is

 

[cshea]

Custerfuck of a start for PP1

 

[durandal1707]

Very impressed with Kuhlman

 

[NAR29996]

Win the third period

 

[Jeff Frye's Face Mask]

Gotta get it going again to start the third.

 

[McDrew]

When did Billy Jaffe start auditioning to take over as the Most Interesting Man in the World?

 

[cshea]

Offense is struggling but the D has been good. Coyle line has probably been their best thus far.

 

[RetractableRoof]

Can't watch the game, and just popped up the box score at ESPN.com. Can anyone explain how Grz and Charlie have a -1 for +/- and also have an assist and Dallas only has one goal? Maybe I am missing the obvious... but those numbers don't make sense.

Thanks in advance.

 

[cshea]

They assisted on the PPG. No + on PPG’s.

They assisted on Heinen’s power play goal and were on the ice for Dallas’ even strength goal.

 

[McDrew]

Points scored on the power play or on penalty shots do not affect +/-.
Corollary: PK goals do.

 

[RetractableRoof]

Thank you both all... I was indeed missing something obvious.

 

[cshea]

It’s a dumb stat anyways.

 

[RetractableRoof]

Agreed it's a dumb stat... I mostly look at it to see if a line is having a rough night.

What do points scored on your mom do?

 

[The Napkin]

Mostly goes to paying the rent

It’s mostly been a slog. Coyle line probably the best. Lindholm line had a bad shift but otherwise they’ve been OK.

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Now that's a fuckin makeup call, good lord

 

[durandal1707]

Tick tack interference

 

[Red Right Ankle]

There's the make up call.

 

[Dropkick Izzy]

Lame

 

[cshea]

Should’ve scored twice, then a shit penalty differential call.

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Wow Carlo

 

[Red Right Ankle]

Rask

 

[ColdSoxPack]

Some dumb luck there

 

[ColdSoxPack]

Do we have the kind of team that can close this out, up a goal, 12 minutes left? Early in the year for a gut check I know. But let's go.

 

[cshea]

The DJ is really getting it cranking here

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Wow, ok this is worse than anything they've ever played at the Garden

 

[PedroSpecialK]

RASK

Think the entry was offside anyway

 

[Dropkick Izzy]

Dirty

 

[ColdSoxPack]

Agree offsides no?

 

[cshea]

Kuhlman has been fun.

 

[Salem's Lot]

I’ve liked Lindholm’s game so far.

 

[cshea]

I’ve liked Lindholm’s game so far.

Reminds me of Dominic Moore. Younger, faster, but similar game.

 

[Salem's Lot]

Reminds me of Dominic Moore. Younger, faster, but similar game.

I was thinking Chris Kelly, but yeah absolutely.

 

[ColdSoxPack]

Ice tilted wrong way.

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Huge block McAvoy, don't like that matchup against the Radulov line

 

[cshea]

4th line against Hintz - Seguin - Radulov is not good

 

[Dropkick Izzy]

CLEAR THE PUCK ZEE

 

[ColdSoxPack]

It's up to Rask now

 

[PedroSpecialK]

That's a stretch Jack... Kuhlman got away with a trip

 

[cshea]

I guess it is the FORD FINAL FIVE

Christ this will be up there every game

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Looks like Bruce is OK with line 4 with Backes in place of Acciari up against opposing teams' top lines... would really rather see Kuhlman there once Krejci's back

 

[cshea]

Wagner in place of Pasta

 

[ColdSoxPack]

What was with the non time out

 

[ColdSoxPack]

Winning! Good road win

 

[cshea]

82-0-0 here we come!

 

[The Napkin]

I like to win

 

[durandal1707]

Whew. Held on.

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Way to buckle down in the last 5, no overly concerning chances. Huge game for Tuukka

We're onto Glendale
