Kinda reminds me of first year of the Jets 2.0 and a couple of cheap coworkers bought counterfeit sweaters. They were ok but then one of them went to a game and realized just how off the colours looked when surrounded by slightly different ones lol.

Easily. :lol
HAHAHAHA! The second I started watching the crowd to see what you were talking about, I was like "Oh snap, there he is". And now he stands out like a sore thumb.
It's funny that were in this pickle again this year. Murray played better overall during the season but if we end up sweeping the Jackets and Fleury continues to play so well I think they'll stick with him.
Need a screenshot
habs don't have a #1 center that's for sure
habs deserved to win this game, lets see if price can steal one in new york for habs
Damn...I can't get it to work. The dude is on the Sharks side right now. REALLY bright orange.

Man we really need to take advantage of one of these PPs. Special teams is killing us tonight.

McDavid is unreal

Yes.
There seems to have been a couple bad calls against the Oilers, that wasnt one of them though. But they still hate the refs.

Ugh geez, and we let McDavid get a taste of blood. Special teams suck tonight. Don't think we can come back tonight from this.

Sharks conceded two shorthanded goals. Maybe the key to victory is taking penalties
Marty Chinn

Wow no penalty?

And Canada is 2/2 tonight. We got a series.
Slightly bitter this isn't how the Oilers played when I watched game 1 live.

Good rebound win by the Oilers. Shitty special teams on our part. Bring on Game 3! I can't wait to hear our crowd at the tank and I hope I don't waste money on this ticket. I bet they push Jumbo Joe out for Game 3.
Maybe they were having stage freight trying to impress you. You should stay home and watch in the comfort of your home from now on

You joke but I've been to two games this year, the former was their worst game of the regular season where they got trounced by Buffalo and the latter was two nights ago where they turned to shit after the first period.

According to the coach, Klefbom is "ok". Please be true.
Refs had a couple rough games in Edmonton about a month ago, and now the crowd chants "refs you suck" every time they're slightly annoyed at them.
I noticed Montreal briefly had the chant going today, too, although the reffing in that game was nutty. Murder is apparently legal out east.
To be fair it's tough at games sometimes. The play happens quickly. Usually you are watching the puck and the penalty can happen away (or not). You see somebody go down and you get excited. Naturally they won't show the replay on the video board so the refs suck.
Let's face it though, the refs do suck.
I mean, the lopsidedness is a one night thing, yeah, largely due to score effects and the overall situation, but in general, that's about right. McDonagh is a stud but his pairing generally has terrible Corsi numbers because he's almost always anchored by the dead weight that is his partner, whether it's Girardi or Holden or Klein or Staal. If you look at his advanced stats when divorced from his partner, he was one of the absolute best defensemen in the NHL this season. Really should be in the top 7 or 8 or so for the Norris, but probably won't be. Staal-Holden always has terrible numbers. They're bad whether you look at them with stats or the eye test, and they have been for about 3 months now.
Brady Skjei's pairing usually has good numbers, whether it's Clendening or Smith or whoever. This isn't just because he gets fewer minutes, though. For example, Skjei was third among Rangers defensemen in ice time tonight after McDonagh and Girardi, and he still put up good numbers. Brendan Smith was also a dominant force for most of the night tonight, making AV's deliberate decision to skip over their shift in the final minutes all the more baffling.
The fact that the third pairing is generally the best statistically, the second is the worst, and the first is just stupidly imbalanced is a routine "every night" sort of thing for the Rangers. And AV's tactic of completely ignoring this obvious fact on a nightly basis is also a routine "every night" sort of thing.

When they win I will tell people Cake Boss told the team to win. That's how much power you have
how easy will it be to spot you in the crowd? just wave at us
He should wear something so he stands out. Like that guy at the oilers game last night.
Little late, but for those that missed, it was this fellow.

Looks like he is wearing a blue Oilers jersey and a flourescent orange hunting jacket on top?
They should have won game 1, Caps will come out hard tonight. I think Leafs get overwhelmed.
