Blues At Ducks Third Period

by Brad Lee on Nov 5, 2008 10:47 PM CST

Blues celebrations ended early tonight.

By Brad Lee

Ducks leading 4-2. Anyone smell a comeback?

And thanks Dooks for giving the inspiration to the Bob Richards comment in the second period thread.

18:30 Kelly and Federko sound defeated already.

17:55 Hey kids, give Raskolnikov shit about being a Blackhawk fan...living in St. Louis. Poor bastard.

17:05 Hiller made the save on Perron. Made it look like he was trying to juggle for a second.

Hey Rask, e-mail me if you're interested in writing something for Game Time the paper or the site. Sean had an idea for the next Hawks game.

15:15 Hey the Stempniak line is having trouble moving the puck. Shocking.

14:24 Pietrangelo pinches in, skates behind the net then instead of trying the wraparound...he passes out to Jackman for a weak shot. Sweet.

13:00 Blues 1-7-2 in last 10 in Anaheim. So they're due, right?

12:01 Palm trees planted outside a hockey arena just looks wrong.

Dooks

perhaps it's time to deny any new commenters with names that it's obvious it isn't them
It could be Ken Wilson. It's not, but it could be. Now you might have a point on Bob Richards, but you thought that was funny.

NO:CLOCK Tkachuk on the breakaway. TAKEN DOWN. No call. Horseshit.

NO:CLOCK (Thanks for at least putting the score and period back up) Get the fucking football preview off my screen, FSN. Look, you're not broadcasting in HD so the game looks like I'm watching it through a fish tank. Fine. But then don't put shit on the screen during play.

10:07 Blues on the power play.

NO:CLOCK I will assert that the play of Kariya on the power play made it what it has been this season. Noticeable difference without him on the ice.

3:37 The Stempniak line drew a penalty. Little Dutchie was working hard with the puck before the call.

And with no game clock visible except when going to commercial and the announcers never mentioning the time left, the game freaking flies by.

NO:CLOCK With as much crap as Kariya has taken over the last year, him not being out there is glaring.

NO:CLOCK Blues pull Mason. No idea how much time is left.

Oh, 1:45 Kelly said.

Getzlaf with the loooooooong empty-netter. 5-2. And it's all over the but the crying.

Jesus Christ, Federko. Hike up those pants anymore and you’re Steve Urkel.

Er, any higher. Goddamn bourbon makes me forget grammar.

Fuck the Blues, fuck Dan Kelly, fuck John Kelly, fuck Mike Kelly, fuck Roberto Kelly, and fuck Kelly Leak. That God damned long haired hippie.

Christ, Anaheim is big in their own zone

Hi, I’m Alex Petrenangelo Elo, and I like to play deep in the offensive zone. Real deep, if you know what I mean.

What’s up, ladies?

This game sucks tonight. How’s it going Brad?

They introduced Garry Unger as a Hall of Famer?

by Hall Plante on Nov 5, 2008 11:05 PM CST reply actions

Btw, give me another couple weeks and I will perfect the John Kelly impression. Perfect for weddings and bar mitzvahs!

it WAS funny, but it’s starting to get old

by Dooks on Nov 5, 2008 11:06 PM CST reply actions

Did he think Tkachuk dove? What’s the story there, zebra?

What do you mean old?

YES! cut to commercial RIGHT when the ref was going to enlighten us on just WHY he blew the whistle.
you go tv producer!

R.Niedermeyer failed at his Bobby Orr impersonation

by Dooks on Nov 5, 2008 11:11 PM CST reply actions

why the hell is there no game clock on the screen??

by Dooks on Nov 5, 2008 11:15 PM CST reply actions

no Mason in net.
…just as well

I’d like to commend the great state of Missouri (Missoura if you’re Jay Nixon) on their decision to use wholesalers instead of distributors. Alcohol is much cheaper here. DAMN YOU BILL WIRTZ!!!!

I always like the long delay after a penalty is called before the other team can touch up. Wonder if the douchbag refs have a special weight-lifting technique they do for keeping in shape for the ‘extra long arm in the air while skating’ move.

not having LEGACE out there is glaring

by Dooks on Nov 5, 2008 11:19 PM CST reply actions

I would like to let the audience know that I threw a guy wearing a Red Wings hat out of the Danzig concert last week for taking a picture with his camera phone. Glenn doesn’t want people to know that he’s become Axl Rose c. 1999.

by Raskolnikov on Nov 5, 2008 11:19 PM CST reply actions

Raskolnikov, did you give the red wings dude a little extra special treatment because of his hat??? Fuck Detroit

by J Stats on Nov 5, 2008 11:21 PM CST reply actions

Woah, Brewer with the fucking assist.

by Dan on Nov 5, 2008 11:21 PM CST reply actions

O_o Brewer passed it to the corner, no one there but a Duck
that empty netter is on YOUR head Brewtal

by Dooks on Nov 5, 2008 11:22 PM CST reply actions

How is that a bad play, Federko? There was no icing because time doesn’t exist in this game.

by Raskolnikov on Nov 5, 2008 11:23 PM CST reply actions

No stoppage time? What the hell ref?

by Raskolnikov on Nov 5, 2008 11:23 PM CST reply actions

no need for stoppage with a 3 goal lead

by Dooks on Nov 5, 2008 11:25 PM CST reply actions

Attention Andy Murray:
Bishop starts, Holt backs up, until Legace returns

An OK first period. Shitty and uneventful for the next two.

Somewhere in there was an uninspiring fight. Oh well.

Go get ’em in San Jose

by Poor College Student on Nov 5, 2008 11:27 PM CST reply actions

echoing Student’s comment, it shows in the comments too. first period had 60-something posts, second period had almost 40, and the third might end up just over 30

by Dooks on Nov 5, 2008 11:30 PM CST reply actions

You know, I honestly feel like the fight took the energy out of the momentum we’d generated. It was almost as sobering as driving drunk and thinking you see a cop behind you. It just sucked the life out of the whole experience.
