Nah, you’re super safe.

 

[naslundfan19]

The greybeard opens the scoring. 1-0 Isles.

Varlamov and Hart showing up for Game 1.

Niiiiice.


Side note: had to run out for something and listened to NHL network on SiriusXM. They are simulcasting the Flyers' radio guys. In the 10 minutes I was in the car they:

- Suggested you needed to "buzz the tower" of the goalie to get him off their game.
- Said that when a goalie takes a puck high, he gets scared the rest of the game.
- Goalies today ain't nothin compared to the guys who didn't wear masks.
- Cried super fowl when someone apparently pushed near Carter Hart
- Said Carter Hart made the save of the year (assuming it was the one above)
- Brought up that the Islanders dynasty of the 80's was illegitimate because of some offsides or some damn thing.
- Praised Derek Grant
- Said Grioux deserves a demotion to the third line because he hasn't scored yet this series.
- Said Andy Greene "stole" the job from Johnny Boychuk (at least they did wind up acknowledging that Boychuk did get a skate to the face ad has been hurt)

It was a busy 10 minutes.

Pageau makes it 2-0.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Isles are gonna win the Cup.

And it’s going to be boring as fuck.

Pulling your goalie with 8 minutes left is a desperate move

Especially in Game 1.

 

[fightinfunbags]

Yikes. That’s an ass kicking

 

[Used 2 B Hu]

Quite the comeback here

 

[Slimpikins]

Ooh, that looked like it might have been offside. I’ll need to see another replay.

 

[fightinfunbags]

What a crazy game today. This series could be a classic.

 

[dash]

Ooh, that looked like it might have been offside. I’ll need to see another replay.

The Flyers wish they had that option back in 1980.

Meh. They're over it.

 

[fightinfunbags]

Meh. They're over it.

Ha! You don’t live here. About once a month you can still count on someone on sports talk radio bringing up 40 years ago and Leon Fucking Stickle.
