Holy sac of nuts! TIE GAME!

Score is more reminiscent of the last time these teams met in the playoffs...1991. Just the time, though, not the teams. I don't think Mike Vernon or Bill Ranford ever let in seven goals in one game (calling all stat nerds!).

 

[alaskanpiper]

Hahaha, no doubt! This game is wild. I thought Kane and Tkachuk were gonna throw down when they were both out of the box. Tkachuk would have been sorry haha. But instead he scored. Crazy ass game. @mikethompson must be running backwards naked through the woods ripping his hair out and speaking in tongues by now.

HATTY

I think he does that after wins too...

Can’t blame him. Hockey often makes me think “What if I just grab an 8oz tin of Bayou Morning Flake, a bottle of bourbon, and a rasher of bacon and disappear into the woods for weeks?”

Haha no, I was off to bed when it was 5-1 Flames. I cannot believe the Oilers tied it up though. What a wild wild game.

They better not all be like that - I'm not sure I could take it.

@Servant King , my good friend who is a Kings fan texted me asking where *this* Mike Smith was last series.

What a mess - 15 goals? Looks like the NHL's version of college football.

I only have a landline, so texting was a tough one to figure out...

Reminded me of an old modem sound as it was coming through

Great game 2 with the Lightening/Panthers tonight. I think Tampa Bay left a few of their bodies on the ice, but go up 2-0. The Panthers are something like 0 for 24 on the PP.

Avs come out flat and Blues step up with a solid game. looks like a series

Solid game by the blues, great adjustment.

 

[mikethompson]

I didn't expect the Blues to be up 2-0 in the series!

The Panthers are something like 0 for 24 on the PP

Yeesh

 

[mikethompson]

@alaskanpiper I've settled in for game 2, have you?

 

[ashdigger]

Calgary was on its heels for the last 5 of the first period.

But Smith gave up two easy goals so Calgary is up 2-1

Calgary needs to come out strong and finish off the Oilers.

 

[mikethompson]

Really nice flow to the second period so far

 

[alaskanpiper]

@alaskanpiper I've settled in for game 2, have you?

I am now. One of the few things I’ll miss hockey for, a Pipe Club Meeting, kept me away until the start of period 2.

 

[mikethompson]

No Pipe Clubs around me ?

Even score ?

 

[mikethompson]

Tied at 3 after 2.

Grab some beverages - this may go late
