Remember, Ben Franklin wanted the turkey to be our national mascot/symbolic bird.

Must be that Russian Thanksgiving bird Whit was going on about.

2 games postponed for the Preds because their arena flooded due to a broken water main:

A group of beer leaguers from ATL were supposed to play there Sunday morning as well. Now they’re all going up there for nothing or losing their money they paid for the AirBnB.

That sucks for Preds fans. My guess is the catfish don't mind it tho.

"Up there for nothing" I'm sure they'll find some fun to be had lol

Vegas has the sickest in-game/in-arena entertainment by a mile...this isn't necessarily "OMG this is wild" or anything but it's just all part of their aesthetic...

Hintz 8 x 8.45. Hm.

For a point per game 1C...

What's a Roope Hintz?

Excellent player.

That Robertson-hintz-pavelski line is probably my favorite in hockey right now. What a force. Unreal mix of size, skill, grit, hands

Jason Robertson just puts the puck in the net whenever...more goals than anyone on the team has assists, that feels a bit rare...that's like early Ovechkin stuff...

I don't mind the content/context. We can't beat the color out of the color guys or else we'll just get monotonous robotic bores.

His diction does sound awful and he should probably shuffle off this mortal coil, though.

But Jack is play by play.

Postby **dodint** » Wed Nov 30, 2022 12:36 pm

Oh.

I stand by the first assertion on principle and double down on the second.

Postby **DigitalGypsy66** » Wed Nov 30, 2022 1:04 pm

Ironically(?), Jack's partner Andy Brickley was regarded as one of the best color guys in the NHL (I'm assuming this is still true).

Apparently last night's game was so bad that the Kings are putting Petersen on waivers.

Wasn't he supposed to be the heir apparent to Quick?
