CP meme. There's no "D" in Mc(D)avi(d)'s game, hence McAvi.

Also the reason why the German is referred to as Raisaitl.

Tell me you wouldn't be entertained by a tandem of Gottfried and Bobcat Goldwaithe. You can't. Cause it would be epic.

I think Loubo is great. I love him passion, his knowledge and the fact he isn’t run of the mill

I'd pay real money for Chucky to somehow bodycheck Gulutzan.

I dont know how he'd do it. I dont know what the consequences would be. But I want it.

Knock GGs stick into the stands with the impact, sort of brings it full circle.

Whalen's voice went higher when he was excited; which, to be fair, was most of the time when he was doing PBP. When he was just reading the sports news on radio or TV, his voice was actually a touch deeper and more resonant than Loubardias's. (Though still incredibly nasal. Somewhere in Heaven, Ed Whalen's nose, Howard Cosell's nose, and Don Adams's nose are hanging out together and annoying the literal Hell out of the new arrivals.)

Very similar numbers this year as well. Maybe even better!

(games, wins, losses, ties, GA, SPG, GAA, SO, assists)

Koskinen: 12, 5, 7, 0, 42, .889, 3.55, 0, 1
Markstrom: 9, 5, 3, 1, 23, .914, 2.55, 2, 0

more games, as many wins, they both have a '2' in their goals against, and Koskinen has an assist!

Edit: and their GAAs both end in 55!

Bobcat could light a mini version of Jay Leno's chair on fire every time the Flames score.

Whenever I see McAvi, I always think of Cousin Avi from Snatch and I giggle.


Connor at Customs leaving Canada when he finally gets traded...

Customs Officer: Anything to declare?

McAvi: Yeah, don't go to Edmonton!

Honestly the Oilers would be better off trading McDavid for an absolute HAUL before his career ending injury. He thinks he is just going to get a pass to the net for the rest of his career?

I want this line to do well, I hope they get chance to work and figure out how best to use each other. I think they're all smart guys and can devise plays that work down low or off the rush ie what's needed against different opponent styles.

Don't listen to noise and keep working is what I'd tell them. I think there is so much potential and talent here (don't care what anyone else thinks).
