It's going to be one of "those" games.

 

[ZeroGravity]

DROUINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

 

[ActStriker]

soft

 

[Cake Boss]

FUTTTTTUUUUURRREEEE SEEENNNAATOOORRRR


DROUBINN!!

 

[ZeroGravity]

I believe that is the first goal Drouin has ever scored in Tampa. All his other goals have been on the road.

 

[KingBroly]

So...is Halak ready?

They should be glad they didn't trade him

 

[iLLmAtlc]

First and last goal in Tampa eh

>_>

 

[KingBroly]

Refs are clearly helping Tampa by continuously putting the Islanders on the PP


EDIT:

...

well, maybe not

 

[ZeroGravity]

Islanders are lucky they drew a team that enjoys shooting itself in the foot.

 

[PillarEN]

If you keep taking penalties...

 

[Cake Boss]

MYYYY RRRUSSSIIIAAANNN LIEEGGEEE

 

[MultiJhonny]

ISLES!

 

[Cake Boss]

Holy fuck Drouin is amazing.

I would have gladly given up White plus Ceci for him, if that was the rumored package.

 

[ZeroGravity]

What a terrible shift, christ.

 

[zroid]

Jonathan Drouin, future

Spoiler

Binghamton

Senator

 

[ZeroGravity]

This fucking team.

 

[ZeroGravity]

HEDMAN!!

 

[MultiJhonny]

wow what a shitty bounce lol

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Good Job Tampa.


I really don't know who should win this series

 

[MultiJhonny]

Good Job Tampa.

I would rather see the Isles win but honestly if they don't I am fine with the Bolts. Just as long as the Pens don't come out of the east.

 

[MetatronM]

Triplets trying to be too cute there.

 

[ZeroGravity]

Kucherov looks really off.

 

[MultiJhonny]

Also got a 12 pack ready for tonight. Go Caps

 

[a916]

Yeah, I'm pretty sure punching a dude with a blocker is a penalty... refs just letting Islanders get away with anything because they're behind in the game...

I hate that game management is a real thing... referees should not be influencing the flow of a game.

 

[ZeroGravity]

Holy shit, that dominance on the 4-on-4.

 

[iLLmAtlc]

Tbl running these guys out of the building in the 3rd. Pretty nuts considering the score.

Goalies do that all of the time, and they're usually given a free one anyway when somebody pokes at them.

 

[zroid]

since I started watching at around the middle of the 2nd period I can hardly remember seeing the puck in the Bolts zone at all

 

[ZeroGravity]

Really happy Cooper is giving Koekkoek some third period playing time with the lead. Kid's good, just needs experience.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

I'm pretty sure that's all from the Islanders this game

 

[DopeyFish]

looooool

 

[ZeroGravity]

YESSSSSSSSSSS

 

[DrForester]

That's cute, the Islanders think they had a shot.

 

[Alucard]

Tampa killing it.

Hope the Pens respond just as strongly against the Caps in a few hours.

 

[Acid08]

So that cat from last night was found somewhere in the Tank. It has food and water and they're gonna make some kind of announcement about it later.

 

[ZeroGravity]

No doubt in my mind who the better team in this series is. Hope the Lightning keep playing like it.

 

[zroid]

saaaaalt

 

[Pikma]

FTFY

Burnsie is going to adopt him?

 

[Cake Boss]

Yeah Tampa in 5 lol. Unless Johnny T goes super saiyan or Bishop plays like shit.

So I went out to the Lightning Watch Party today, just felt like cheering with a large group of fans. Next thing I know, some guy comes up to me and tells me he's got an extra ticket if I wanted it. These were the seats:

MY. LORD. I've never been that close before and it's crazy how much the speed of the game really sinks in from there. And man what a dominant effort too. Just constant puck possession and absolute control of the 2nd and 3rd period. Beautiful. Only complaint is with Charron(who is always awful) and McCauley. Absolutely embarrassing officiating. McCauley in particular stared RIGHT at a high stick and a cross check in our area and just stared off into space like a moron. Incredible that they can't get anyone better for the playoffs.

All in all though, holy CRAP what a day. Still can't believe I got a free ticket from a stranger, much less so close. Bring on game 3!

 

[apocalidiot]

^ thats super badass


Tampa destroyed the Islanders in the third (that's all I caught). Christ

 

[Alucard]

Go Pens. Let's tie this thing up.

Wow!!!

 

[opticalmace]

That draft suspence.

e: wrong thread

 

[Brashnir]

Really a commercial in the middle of this? Weak

edit - rigged.

 

[Alucard]

That draft suspence.

e: wrong thread

Not really. They're delaying showing the start of the Pens/Caps game for this on CBC. Come on, guys.

 

[Acid08]

Grats Leafs fans. You really....earned it?

 

[Alucard]

Leafs with the 1st overall pick. Huh. Wonder if it'll make any difference for them.

On to the hockey game, please. Stop talking to Brendan Shanahan. Stop.
