Wanted to get the thread up early. Game time is 7:30 CST. Game is on the FSN. No HD, those cheap bastards. We welcome followers of all denominations, so if any stray Hawks fans show up, I hope they join in the reindeer games in the comments.
Here's the Yahoo! preview.
Drop your predictions and such before the puck drop.
BONUS: As you might know, there is a paper version of Game Time that we sell outside Blues games. We were insipired by the godfather of underground publishing, Jeffio, who ran the Game Night Revue for 10 years. That drunkard was inspired by the Blue Line, a fan-run publication sold outside Hawks games because this other drunkard wanted an outlet to cuss out the then-owner Dollar Bill Wirtz. I said all that to say this: There's a new fan-run publication in Chicago called The Committed Indian. This is their first season and the crazy dude who is doing it sent us the pdf version of their paper tonight. I think he's been brave enough to comment a few times around here. If you'd like to see what the fans are reading about the Blues tonight in Chicago, drop me a line at gtbradlee@gmail.com and I'll forward your way.
We'll be back closer to game time...here at Game Time.
19:47 And we're off to a flying start. Offsides.
17:25 Legace with a decent save.
17:13 Stempniak on the doorstep. Couldn't get a shot.
17:04 Mini breakaway. Legace makes the stop. Too much happening. Can't type fast enough. Looks like I picked the wrong week to give up meth.
16:12 MCDONALD! A shorty! Doing his best Patrick Sharp impersonation. 1-0 St. Louis.
A first period lead? Really?
I would like to point out that before the season on my player rankings, I rated McDonald the most important player on the team.
HEY TIM AT HOOTERS. Tell Angellla Brad says hi and then ask if she'll be able to answer my interview questions.
14:15 Apparently the Blues penalty is over. It's hard to see the screen when a 3 year old keeps pointing at the screen to her friend Barret Jackman.
13:45 PERRON SCORES!!!!! What. The. Fuck. 2-0 St. Louis, with two goals in two games for Frenchy. Khabibulin is Russian for "Soft Like Cheese Clothe."
Apparently John Davidson on TV is bad luck. 2-1 Blues.
And the score and time are invisible. Backes just had his second chance and then anarchy ruled. Apparently Woywitka is pissed he's not in Peoria anymore.
SOMETIME DURING THE GAME Davidson had to step in and mention there's a Blues power play. Hopefully Davidson can give Federko some tips or something.
AT SOME POINT TONIGHT Davidson declares the Hawks-Blues rivalry is back during a pushing match. Tkachuk tried forcing the puck in. Hawks took umbrage. I smell fisticuffs.
10:45 "I thought it was a decision that could go either way," Kelly said about the Pietrangelo decision. Davidson said, and I'm paraphrasing here: I'm not going to say you're wrong, but you're wrong.
9:35 CAM PADDOCK SCORES!!!! Who? 3-1 Blues? Is he related to Cam Neely? And I hate seeing No. 65. Holy crap. Whatever kind of coffee they replaced in the dressing room before the game, buy more.
And Woywitka and Seabrook dropped the gloves. Jeffrey, hold on for dear life.
That's going to leave a mark.
Commercial: "We owed the IRS more than $3 million...and we payed less than $1 million." Hey dumb bitch, it's people like you who are ruining the economy for this country. Thanks for doing your part -- a nation down.
Backes and Barker drop the gloves while we watch Tkachuk junior score a hat trick. And Barker will not be recongized by his boyfriend after the game.
I bet Cam Janssen is pissed he hasn't danced yet.
8:42 Walt drops the glove with Buffalogin or however the hell you spell his name. And there's a reason Walt doesn't drop much anymore. He got hurt in a fight with Phaneuf last year. Walt got the extra 2 minutes? WTF?
7:40 Hawks holding the puck in forever on the power play.
Too bad Oshie is hurt. Would love to see a fight with him and Toews.
6:25 Penalty over.
So maybe the rivalry is back...
5:24 So Janssen was so raring to go, he forgot to throw punches. He fights Eager and it's over quickly with the takedown. Fourth fight of the first period.
So if Legace and Khabibulin go, who wins? And yes, Legace is allowed a step stool.
4:52 Legace cleaned up a rebound. He hasn't been challenged much besides the goal, but he looks steadier than he did two nights ago.
2:23 High-priced free agent defenseman Brian Campbell pinches in. He has 0 penalty minutes so far this season.
2:09 Perron on the other hand is in the box right now. I hope he feels shame.
Chris D.
brewer’s shot blocked huh.
I've seen grass grow faster than his release.
:24 Paddock out killing penalties. Interesting.
END OF PERIOD
Blues lead 3-1. Go figure. We'll let you know when the second period post is up. Thanks for hanging out tonight.

I, on the other hand, feel really sorry for tampa bay, they will never be able to hire a good coach ever again. what a bunch of dingos!
dingos!!!!
you cnan’t fire a coach 15 games into a season and keep the respect of anyone you plan to play a few million too next season!!
and rick toccett can’t be better than murray cos, well, just cos.

Haha, what? They fired Barry Melrose already? What a bunch of shitheads.

FYI, there is an official viewing party at the Fairview Heights, IL Hooters. I’m not sure if i’m going, but i may. Angelllla is supposed to be there, as well as the mascot and a Blues alumnus. Could be fun.

also, my sources indicate a Manny – Khabibulin matchup.

Hey Trauma. You don’t agree with a point. Fine. One small piece of advice.
Let. Shit. Go.

Totally disagree Brad, without that release who knows what kind of anti-social activity Trauma would be involved in. Aside from bitching on here of course.

I for one welcome my new* tv analyst overloard Barry Melrose. Hoping he lands on the nhl network cause, well, cause I have it.
*15th time?
by sharpelbows on Nov 14, 2008 6:37 PM CST reply actions 0 recs
Same prediction as every hockey game . . . as Mr. T once(?) said, “I predict PAIN!”
Also, Melrose’s firing at Tea Bag . . . errr, Tampa Bay . . . probably puts Matthew Barnaby out of a job. Again. Except this time Barnaby’s job is at ESPN.
I second Dan’s second, by the way. Fuck procedure.

Hahah, FSN referencing EJ and Manny’s wierd injuries and following it with “Are we cursed?” It’s funny to see a media outlet catching on to that thought.

CT, don’t you hate how poorly sarcasm translates via text?

I’m not following here where was what was the sarcasm?
tampa bay are retards. fire their coach fifyeen games and he’s actually a damn good coach. screwy that’s what tampa bay is, screwy. talk about players thatmaybe should have been sent back to juniors—Stamkos. Oh, I guess I was right about that one. I realized it was a Canadian conspiracy to not have yet another American drafted number one over all. And if your Tampa you should have traded down and got what you needed A DEFENSEMAN—ESPECIALLY SINCE LIKE A BUNCH OF TARDS THEY TRADED BOYLE AWAY HAHAHAHA

I don’t remember much about who was drafted…other than Pietrangelo. Who do you think should’ve been the number one pick Chris?

I thought it was between Doughty and Bogosian personally.

i’m at hooters, with a 30-45 min wait for a table, but we’ll tough it out for a bit. with a laptop and free wifi, i hope to score some pub for GT. That, and drink some beer. there’s always that …

In other news, Peoria and Quad City are tied 2-2 after one period. Bishop in goal for the Rivermen, Leland Irving (yes, that’s really his name) in goal for the Flames, both goalies have faced seven shots and have five saves.
Lemtyugov is back in the lineup, and is doing what he does best… scoring the first goal of the game. In 82 AHL games, Lemtyugov has 25 goals, and nine of those (36.0%) were the first goal of the game.

This is awesome shit to watch. And it will be until the Hawks score, like, five goals in the second period.

one of the plusses of the blues this year was they had the manpower to score shorties. i suspect that 1 that put them in the middle of the pack isnt quite the output they were hoping for. still we are well above last seasons pace of 3.

Chris D., while I understand the logic of where you’re coming from, I’m at least overjoyed by the fact that I’m being entertained. Which is a nice change from the Blues cruising through the first period and being down 2-3 goals.
