Greg Millen saying Markstrom is a top 5 goalie in the league? I have read on here that in some quarters folks think he is untradeable.

A good dilemma at least.

Because VGK somehow decided that wearing dirty white jerseys would be a good idea.

That was so dumb. Loved the Terry Ryan story, I wanna watch that game if it's on somewhere lol. Then Ron has to yammer on about nothing to ruin the bit. Like if you have nothing to say, just say nothing. Frickin retire already

Vegas wanted to use their 3rd jersey, so they agreed to it a while back.

Good shot Lindholm, I think he'll start scoring on those soon.

Huberdeau’s not too mobile in his own zone but when he gets his stick on a puck there’s usually a good exit.

"Enjoy your trip to Vegas!"

"Thanks! We're going to the Flames-Knights game on Saturday."

"Oh cool. Good seats?"

"Yeah, third row beside the Flames' bench."

"Nice. What are you going to wear?"

"My ugly orange Oilers jersey, of course, because I'm a ####ing tool."

Cringe.

Millen loves to voice his Debbie Downer thoughts.

"Gotta wonder if the Flames can hold onto this since they're so tired."

Lindholm runs into Sharangovich: "Oh boy that sure looks a lot like Bedard's broken jaw".

The team ices it while trying to hold on late: "These can hurt you, sure hope this doesn't cost the team!"

Because of the ads, no matter what you have to see McDavid's face all the time.

You just reminded me of this:


Context: Willie Mitchell trolling Keenan in warmups, after Keenan said he had an illegal stick because it was too long.

Really liked that 4th line shift..right up until Desimone and Osterle both got in deep, that was a little scary.

Ron is always on another wavelength than everybody else and can never seem to keep up and adapt.

it's beyond me why SN thought it was the right move to bring him back.

He's been getting progressively worse at the host role for years. Only time he does well any more is during certain special events that actually involve reminiscing on past events and kraft hockeyville stuff.

On regular broadcasts he sticks out like a big, dumb, sore thumb.

Even Hrudey through his bumbling does better at playing off the rest of the panel and keeping on topic.

Greer and Dube probably play D as well as them, TBF.

That was coming as soon as (a) Millen said Calgary righted the ship and (b) Rasmus tried to be cute at the blue line.
