2013/14 General Heat Discussion Thread

[RyZ]

Sounds like Sven just can't buy a positive result.

[Drury18]

Puck has dropped to start the 3rd.

[Drury18]

I have lost count the number of chances that Abbotsford should have scored on Erickson. This kid is unbelievable.

[Drury18]

5:31 to go in the game. Still no score.

[Drury18]

End of the 3rd, still no score.

Off to OT we go.

Nice little story about Joni Ortio is the feature today on theahl.com: http://theahl.com/ortio-taking-the-ahl-by-storm-p190020

“I knew where I was at and that I could play well, but going 9-0 to start the year that probably wasn’t in my mind,” Ortio said. “So it was kind of surprising, a pleasant surprise.”

Is Sven hurt? It looks like his elbow is wrapped up.

Yea, does look like he's got an ice bag tensored on him.

Not sure on injury although it's not completely uncommon for players to do that if they have past injuries and such just as a pregame prep. Something like tendinitis you could be doing that for years as just regular maintenance.

Also, I want one of those team issue Heat hoodies. Love them this year. PMM, any chance you could tackle someone for one for like $20? :-)

Looks like one of those elbow pads volleyball players wear to me.

Ugly giveaway on the first goal. I think it was Billins behind the net that gave it up.

Nah, he made a blocker save beforehand, so he had one puck touch at least.
