2013-14 NHL Regular Season Thread: Second Period
- Thread starter MJ5150
- Start date
Penguins are #1 in the league with most man games lost and have more than 100 more games than the #2 team...
suing over beer?
Yeah streak's over. Good match last night kings/leafs. Wish I was there. kopitar robbed twice. bernie played a good game for the leafs.
We have Gaborik now who was very hot w the Rangers a few years back if you recall. He scored last night. Good.
Bernier only played the first period. Optimus Reims finished the game, shut out the Kings for the second and third.
Maybe if people would stop head-shotting our all stars...
Although you could say James Neal is one of the few guys who deserves it and I would have a hard time arguing... Although I didn't even see him take a bad hit recently.
Wasn't able to watch the game but I can only imagine how it went with 3/4 of our current lineup being AHL regulars haha.
Habs v Sens 
.3 seconds!!!... That's one of the reasons I love hockey.... If the clock is running... There's a chance...

Hmm, could have sworn I had subbed this edition of the thread before... what happened?
Hat's off to Peverly, hope he makes a full recovery. But you want tough hockey, you have to go old school Flyers and their goal tender Bruce Gamble:

Has heart attack in goal, continues on and wins game, then goes to the hospital.

Two big wins for the Flyers. I'm not going to get too upset about the Pens losses, but when Bylsma said this, "They did a lot of what we expected. We weren't able to handle it...", I was sort of frustrated.

Urban legends regarding Gamble
Because Gamble suffered both heart attacks after playing or practicing hockey, erroneous accounts have been written that he was taken to a hospital during the 1972 NHL game, or that he "died during an old-timer's game". Neither of Gamble's heart attacks disabled him while he was on the ice, although both had their onset soon afterward
Gamble fell to the ice during that 1972 game and explained it later as having chest pains. He was taken to the hospital after the game. It's in my Greenburg book on the Flyers. I think it's also mentioned in Gene Hart's book "Score!" but I'm not sure on that one. Not so sure it's an urban legend. Too bad he died so young at 44 that we can't ask him.
Four big points for the Flyers. Not sweating it as a Pens fan since half the team was out for both games and they almost pulled off the second game.
Flyers look way better now than they did earlier in the year. Heating up just in time to go streaking into the playoffs. I'll be curious to see how they finish the regular season.

Gamble shmamble. My heart has stopped mid-post half a dozen times, yet I've still hit "Submit reply".
