At least you tried. 😉

Amerk PP coming up. Woody, you know what you need to do. 😉

Maybe you can duck out towards the end of this period too to change the mojo back?

And yet, not a single beret?

Some of us might say thesame thing about Ra-cha-cha's goalie. 😉

He was the 3F and charged directly at the man breaking out rather than coming at an angle which caused him to face plant. He then was doing his best "broken controller Ovechkin" drift back into the zone.

And Peterka's play on the Laval 2nd goal is an example of how he still has room for improvement before getting "penned" in for the Sabres.

You'd better not miss anymore actual game play!

Only 4? Which 3 didn't you think were solid enough? 😉

Play under review. Goal judge turned on the light; ref said no. Goa judge correct. 1-1.

Malone w/ the primary. Murray the 2ndary.

Peterka! Seal broken. 1-0. Great outlet pass.

They just have to stay even keeled. They're not giving Laval much time or space. So, just keep doing what they're doing & don't press. They're outshooting them 13-4. Keep playing like this & Primeau will become beatable.

Krebs just got robbed on a wraparound by the D-man. If this was next year, he's probably strong enough to win that battle.

Nice D by Schuldt (no, really!) to break up a partial 2 on 1.

Primeau saving the Rocket's bacon so far. After the PP, Amerks are outshooting them 9-3 and there have been several quality chances.

Nice effort by Jankowski chasing a puck down behind the Laval net drawing an I temperance call. Amerk PP.

So, maybe when Quinn isn't getting shadowed everywhere on the ice he can still be noticeable. Good for him.

They're going w/ the same 11 & 7 they went w/ on Thursday.

Mammoth had the late lead last night, but lost in OT, so we won't know the opponent until next week. Hopefully it's a hard game as the Bandits rest up. Hoping the Mammoth win, so the Bandits can say they didn't play a single team they didn't beat this season. They split (embarrassingly) w/ the Riptide in the RS, went 1-2 in the RS vs the Rock, but 2-0 in the playoffs, and Colorado was their only other loss but they've only played once so far.

Wouldn't ever trust what the clock says on any internet fed game. Can't even begin to count the # of times the time shown in an Amerks game or an NLL lax game has been off by a second or 2 (or 20). Quite often the clock shown on TV tends to start late & stop late, too. It even skips ahead occasionally then might stop briefly, too. In the broadcast, one of the 2 TSN announcers even said they didn't have the clock to show in the replays. But, of course he was sure it was in by at least 0.1 or 0.2 seconds. 😉

Actually, if he's playing in junior all he gets paid by the Sabres organization is any signing bonus he might have negotiated. Junior players get paid a small stipend by their teams, but you'd have to ask someone who follows junior hockey far more closely to know how much they get there.

Was surprised Reinhart got that late goal in game 4 the previous round that saved that series. There's always at least one 1 seed that goes out in the 1st round. Thought they were it, & they were less than a minute away from a 3-1 hole, but this year surprisingly there weren't any. Go figure. Long worded way of saying didn't see FLA's game translating to the post season well.

Had posted this in the Random Thread yesterday. Good to give it it's own thread.

If the Swamp Cats lose this series, the pick WILL be 28. Otherwise it will be 30, 31, or 32 depending on whether they lose next round, lose the Finals, or win them respectively.
