I remember in the 2009 playoffs muting the TV and listening to the Mike Lange radio feed for all the Penguins' games. It was about a 1.5 second lagtime but totally worth it

Well christ, Steigerwald was one of the worst PBP guys the league has ever known, a merzbow album would be a substantial improvement to that viewing experience

Well in this case by the finals it was Lange instead of Emrick, still an upgrade and I don't say that lightly

Gods, I miss Mike Lange :sigh:

Someone edit the EDMONTON:THE GAME image so instead of "Go home with the girl," I guess it says "Start a riot, I guess"

And when you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss goes 8-8

The Oilers will want to have the puck in the offensive zone at some point

Panthers have played a pretty great period except for that one big fuckup. McDavid barely noticeable. They're playing their game and unless McDavid goes godmode they're going to win.

That was a hell of a period but it doesn't feel like either team actually generated much quality offense outside of their goals.

Very much the Panthers' style of game so far and they're better at it than the Oilers. Knoblauch needs to take a laxative and let them open it up
