Emile Fricken' Poirier

[Maritime Q-Scout]

So we're supposed to be getting what meteorologists are calling a "Weather Bomb". Possibly 40cm+

So I've been busy preparing for that and just ran out of time before the game (starts in 2 minutes now).

So I've got the radio on, and you can steam the webcast at:

FOR F***S SAKES

35 seconds in 1-0 Gatineau (I didn't catch if Poirier was in on the goal, he didn't score it. Will update with an edit when I find out)

edit: Tardif-Richard from Renway, so no points for Poirier but he was on the ice.

Goal by Poirier! 3-2 Gatineau now.

[Fuzzy14]

3-2 off of poirier's stick. Big wrist shot top shelf from the high slot.

[Maritime Q-Scout]

Poirier scores with a rocket that had eyes to put Gatineau up 3-2 late in the first.

I'll update as Poirier does anything of note.


Oh wow, so I'm not the only one listening, haha

[Maritime Q-Scout]

So I just texted Pat (the guy calling the game) letting him know that there were folks from CP listening online, including one from Austria (devo22).

He said to tweet at him @CBSE_pbp and he'll send a shout out on the air.


For those wondering Pat is one of my oldest friends, so these plugs are half for Poirier, half for him haha

[Maritime Q-Scout]

Poirier with a goal and the Play of the Game in a 7-2 win.

Gatineau takes a stranglehold 3-0 series lead, completely dominating Cape Breton in every game.

Odds aren't looking good for the game taking place tomorrow, but the hotel is only two blocks from the rink, so they might have it anyway.

I'll keep you updated.

[Maritime Q-Scout]

FYI: The game scheduled tonight has been postponed until tomorrow due to the "Weather Bomb" going on outside.

Once this finally stops I'll post before and after pictures, we're getting dumped on.

God Centre 200 was empty on tuesday but I had wicked seats. Going tonight to watch them get thumped, try to get Poiriers auto.

[Maritime Q-Scout]

Once again I can't make the game, but I've got it on the radio. You can listen live to Patrick McNeil on 103.5 The Eagle. Pregame is on now, game starts in about 10 minutes.

Also Pat loves tweets and emails during the game

@CBSE_pbp

CBSE_pbp@gmail.com (I think)

Thanks for the updates in this thread, really appreciate it.

I'm following along on the summary page for this one, looks like a tight game, 5 shots total, 6 minutes into it.

[Scoutski]

Boom, assist for Poirier on the first goal.

[Maritime Q-Scout]

I'm doing paperwork while listening. A number of Calgary mentions thus far.

I can't stress enough how much Pat loves social media, if you tweet at him he will thank you on air haha

[NomNomNom]

I'm listening to the game here at my practicum and I've fired him a few tweets. He nailed my last name on air, which is quite impressive because it's Ukrainian and doesn't sound like it's spelt.

I caught that. He just texted me bragging about that actually haha

[Maritime Q-Scout]

Say did anyone else hear there's a boat show in Moncton? Yeah that game started early because actually there's a boat show in Moncton this weekend. Who knew there is a boat show in Moncton this weekend?

Proposal: take a drink every time Pat mentioned the Moncton Boat Show

(Sending him the link to this post now)


Edit: (more drinking game ideas)

Take a drink every time MacDonald Autogroup is mentioned

Take a drink every time "It's time to take the bar course" commercial comes on.

Hahaha, that's hilarious. As soon as he started to say my first name, I'm just sitting here thinking "Oh God, he's going to absolutely butcher my last name" Buuuuuuut he didn't.

[Scoutski]

I gave it a tweet but I can only listen for little bits at a time because I'm at work...

Poirier is killing it thought

Did you tweet from LA? I missed the name but he said that he got a tweet from another person on the Poirier train.

Yep, that's me, I have a generic white name "Michael Cooper" so I doubt there was any fun in the pronunciation game.
