Here's the full broadcast of ^this^ game:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5r0oKcxQyJ4

For context, there was a gently caress-all blizzard which came through the day before and dumped a couple feet of snow on the DC area, causing the Pens to have to take the train to Washington. Adding to the intrigue was there was a second gently caress-all blizzard which came in either the next morning (Monday) or Tuesday.

Ironically enough, Sunday was a spectacular, bright, sunny day on which I trudged through knee-deep snow in moon boots to get from the JW Marriott to Verizon Center and it was so, so worth it.

e- One weird quirk about the broadcast is the change in color analysts for the third(?) period. Eddie Olczyk had to get back to Chicago for some sort of honor (and might have been trying to beat the weather out), so Mike Milbury joins Doc and Pierre for the finish.

I didn't realize until this summer (in part because they were so rare and because I never used one in EA NHL games) that offer sheets had to be agreed to be the player. (I.e., Brayden Point isn't stuck going to another team if he doesn't want to).

I thought, given the RFA status of the player, it was more of a hostile takeover where the team losing the player had the choice of either a) matching and signing the player or b) being compensated for the loss with the draft picks on the salary schedule.

The Coliseum was what I meant, not Nassau proper. It's going to be big and fancy, but it's not going to be the old-school barn that got a new lease on life when the first new and trendy place the Isles moved backfired horribly which was reason enough to bandwagon them in the first round last year.

quote:

Jarmo and Janne were in a Kuopio burger joint, along with Janne’s then-girlfriend, in the early 1990s. Two other young men, clearly intoxicated, were getting loud and disruptive, taunting the staff, terrorizing other customers and causing a scene....

.....
..."but Jarmo went right in front of everybody and went right after them. Both of them.”

Jarmo grabbed one of them by the back of the pants and the back of the shirt, yanked him backward, dragged him past a few tables and threw him down the long flight of stairs that led to the street. When the man stood up at the bottom of the steps, he pulled a knife out of his sweatshirt and started heading back upstairs. Jarmo confronted him again.

“Jarmo grabbed him around the throat, put him up against the wall, and screamed something right into his face,” Janne Kekalainen said. According to Jarmo: “I kept my poker face and said, ‘Get the gently caress out now, while you still have an opportunity.'”

Is Anderson normally a third line player? Pretty impressive if he put up just under 30 goals playing third line minutes.

17:01 ATOI last year. The second and third lines were pretty interchangeable, but Foligno-Jenner-Anderson (as it was for a time last season) is more of the traditional third-line "grinder" type role.
