They are certainly taking their sweet time with this.

I just shoved it into another window and just keep checking back to see if they're done.

Heh...the only problem with getting the NBC feed, is that you have to listen to McGuire drone on and on about some guy's pee wee coach, and name drop every podunk town that the player drove through, on the way to the NHL.

Do they really need to do this? The intro celebration and the anthems?

Its all pre-recorded, just show it and let the players come out later. Why do they have to stand there on the ice to watch TV?

Hopefully, this was just a ceremony to open the entire tournament. It will suck if every game features 25 mins of pre-game babble.

It feels risky, since the schedules to accommodate multiple games at a single location are extremely tight.

Hawks look good early.

Smith looks disconnected from his limbs. Great signs.

Murphy whiffs as the trailer on the 2 on 1.

The Oilers appear to be in mid-season form.

This has probably been answered elsewhere already, but what are the plans if the games go to OT?

What does Ched lead with? Some reference to 1980. Go hawks!

Hawks look fired up. I'm sure they're well aware that everyone in that building, including the media, is actively rooting against them.

The Oilers look like they expected to cruise straight to victory. No work ethic out there.

Hmm...bad luck to gift that team a PP without them even having to dive for it.
