That punch from Fox reminded me of these all-timer posts

goddamn I love Wayne. it reminded me of:

"H-hello police? Jake Guentzel is trying to whip my rear end, please hurry".

Fox has been so incredible with his embellishments so far. Necas had a crazy one in OT where he threw himself down like a soccer player. I appreciate the effort. If we haven't been diving, the penalty differential would be even crazier.

...was the first thing I saw of the game last night and I'd like to thank Jacob Trouba for scud missiling himself into the boards and giving me a laugh on an otherwise garbage day where my dad was diagnosed with (a treatable form of) cancer. May your attempts at taking people's heads off be limited to the blooper reel and Tony DeAngelo going forward.

drat brother hope it goes well! Trouba had a bit of a crazy game and that Necas duck apparently really pissed him off. So I imagine he'll be trying some crazy poo poo in game 3 at the least. Expect another highlight

Too much time between series, gave the digital teams time to be creative.

I’m just worried the bottom is going to fall out of the Canucks in goal, as much as a top goalie is going to stop more pucks than their backup, (and their backups backup..), a key difference is being able to repeat it night in and night out.

DeSmith was excellent to start the season, then fell apart under workload, and even Spencer Martin looked great last season for a short stretch - then reality hit. Hope I’m wrong, Silovs is cool, but he’s only played 9 nhl games or something, stopping McDavid every second day for two weeks is probably beyond him.

Edit: this however is good work by the Canucks.

As someone who sings for a living, I dread having to do crap like that. Actually, seeing that makes it click why a bunch of friends were emailing me last week about why I wasn't part of that promo. All I can say to that is I don't need work that badly (I also don't like La Bamba)

I don't think it's the song choice, it just sounds really weird because they're opera singers singing it like it's opera, over enunciating everything with 50 foot vibrato. See also:

Yeah and the frustrating thing, imo, is that when you're a classically trained singer, everyone expects you to sing that way all the time. I mean, sometimes you get the reverse like Aretha Franklin singing Nessun dorma in a motown style.

Another reason why I dread those kinds of promos is because I don't mind singing pop songs, but I get told "no, sing it in your style" and it comes out...like that

NHL playoffs will not be available on CBC Gem, however viewers can still tune into CBC Television or stream on Sportsnet+ to watch the games.

Why isn't CBC streaming the Playoffs on CBC Gem?
While we were pleased to be able to offer NHL games to hockey fans this season through an agreement with Rogers Sportsnet, the national rightsholder for NHL hockey, CBC no longer has access to streaming any of the Playoff games.

another game at nationwide arena. everybody keeps asking me if they can fuck the cannon. buddy, they don't even let me fuck it

I don't think we have a minor league thread anymore, so I'm posting it here: what the gently caress was that cross-checking call in the Monsters game late in OT? It's a cross-check, yeah, but it's playoffs overtime, swallow the whistle. :ramsay:

A Monster just blasted a B-Sen in front of the net just now and I could've lived with that being a call.

I remember watching the 2004 finals between Calgary on Tampa on a portable TV/radio while camping in the woods. (Bob Cole was calling it of course.) Watching hockey was basically considered a public service.
