Heat vs. Moose preseason

[Reggie Dunlop]

Listen online

Sorry, can't seem to find the game broadcast on that link. No luck over at theahl.com either.

Poop.

I haven't found any links for a broadcast either . . . but I found this on the Moose site:

Marty Murray won his first face-off as a Moose and the first face-off of the game as the visiting Manitobans embarked on their first-ever matchup against the newly formed Abbotsford Heat.

Three minutes into the period, Abbotsford’s J.D. Watt was called-out for elbowing and then unsportsmanlike conduct giving the Moose a four-minute advantage. Half-way through the double minor, Carson Germyn escaped on a short-handed surge and fired a slapshot past Adam Munro to open the scoring.

Before the young Moose could counter, Mikael Backlund took the visitors by surprise. On a quick line change, the 20 year old centre jumped over the wall, stormed the net, grabbed the puck and fired it over Munro for a two-goal lead.

With Manitoba in the sin bin with two-minutes to go in the opening period, the Heat benefited from their first man-advantage. Already scoring a shorthanded and even-strength marker, Carson Germyn covered all bases by notching his second of the night on the powerplay, 3-0.

At 19:32 a hit-from-behind on Evan Oberg caused an out roar from both sides resulting in three misconducts and four major penalties. When all was said and done, the Moose got the upper hand and entered the second period with a five-minute powerplay.

That's all they have so far.

Found a link that works! Moose on CJOB

"Lots of Flames jerseys in the crowd tonight. Quite impressed with how many there are."

-- Moose announcer

Way to represent!!

Final 5 - 2

For those not listening the Moose play by play guy was just saying that he was amazed at how many Calgary Flames jerseys were in the crowd . . . especially being 45 minutes away from GM Place

Oops too slow

Nice! Almost as good as Backlund's 4 pt night

[Reggie Dunlop]

Flames Nation Represent in the Lower Mainland!

4,598 attendance.

[Reggie Dunlop]

Rhett Warrener is in the house!

[Stereochild]

Heat sweep 3 stars:

1. Germyn
2. Backlund
3. Negrin

[PIMking]

wow figures carsen would finally hit the net.

[Reggie Dunlop]

Well, I guess all that remains to be seen is how the Heat are recieved by the locals during the regular season. Sounds like a C of Red on the lower mainland, and talk of Canucks fans overtaking Moose/Heat tilts might have been premature.

[PIMking]

thats alot of people for a preseason game. I know they are playing the moose so I wonder how much that had to do with it.

its going to be a fun year.
