First!

Shakes head. Dad Gum Auto-Correct

FRIST!
Dangit!

And I was so excited…

I was shocked i got it in the frist one

You got it in the frist one frist?!

bingo
Fourth

frosty time

Buffalo

Has been on quite a bad streak since the game here.

I guess the Fish goal was rewarded to Horny for his 10th.
so... what you're saying is that the goal actually reads

Horny from the Fish and the Human Rocket Ship?

We have

Horny. Tits. Fish. Honey Badger. and a Human Rocket ship on our team.

Whatchoo got, rest of NHL?

Also, Man-Koala, Bad Horse, Spals to the wall, and Kevin Klein.

babyface, au-grattin, the beard

We have Smithson’s Face

Rat Leggy Willy Peks
Forgot

about Willy

Anyone want to

really make that list?

i bet we have a nickname for everyone on the team

What the hell, I’ll do it.

A tootoo train

Train Train Tootoo Train the Preds are gonna win this game

nononononononononono >_<

Well, there’s Clitsome…

Yeah that’s hard to beat.

And quite infortunate, all at the same time..

27-12

We are getting owned in the face-off circle.

Re: Last thread

Is the android version of the SB nation app out yet?

yes

Oh heck yes.

Is it just called SB Nation?

yes

2/3 on the power play tonight?

Not bad. Not bad at all

In case you were wondering, Sith Lords use cherry lip balm.

Haha, what??

There is a bit of inference involved in my statement, sorry.

That’s okay.

I imagine Darth Vader has serious chapping problems.

Due to lots of HURTLINGTHROUGHSPACE?

Human rocket ship

Are you saying that Ryan Ellis is a Sith Lord?

Who scores goals ON THE MOON?

That’s no moon….

The Death Star?

You catch on quick

Aaand I’m somewhere wandering around behind you guys haha. No worries though :)

I figured it was from burning up in all that lava. Dries out the skin.

Ah yes. That too.

Only Star Wars movie I’ve only seen once.

Definitely one of the worst. The second one is pretty bad, too.

and the Phantom Menace. All of those were pretty poor.

This is going to turn into a Star Wars thread real quick.

It never wasn’t a Star Wars thread

i really wish i knew how to slow-mo youtube videos

i’d do it to this video and post it
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qYY06KD_Zg

How have I never seen that??

Yeah, I’m just going to go with “all of them” because yikes…

wait wait… what do you mean by all of them?

Er, all of the second ones (1-3, not the originals). Sorry, I assumed that you knew what I was talking about.

I had to be certain.

Understandably. The originals can never be touched. Some of my favorite movies.

love them all

Books are amazing too

I had every single extended universe book (ignoring the books around or before the new films) but then part way into the New Jedi Order books I nerd raged and sold all of them. I regret that.

Fate of the jedi is good they have real sith!!!!

I’ll never go back. Outside of the three originals I pretty much ignore Star Wars

Have you seen Lucas' original scripts for the first trilogy?

If he had had a budget back then, you’d ignore those movies too.

Dude is nuts.

Missing out

I’m ok with it. I came to terms with my abandonment of Star Wars several years ago.

Power Play!

Off a really blatant hook. You just can’t do that, man.

Pekka Rinne = Paul Bunyan

Have you heard?

AWESOME.

Then who is Babe the blue ox?

Cube with a stick to the face?
One of the Sutters... and now we on the PP!

LA’s coach is in the penalty box?

ooh, almost let in a shorty D:
DIRTY GOAL!!! WOOO
Lolwut.... goal?
Hahaha

I love the celebratory fist pump from laying on the ice.

OUR POWERPLAY IS SO POWERFUL!

4th in the league before tonight!
Peters totally blew that cover.

he just whiffed with his glove

No, it was horny! lol

Horny with two then?

Yep! Horny hat trick now in play.

Horny
While swimming.
And

amazingly didn’t use his hand to get it in.

Are we moving back up the ranks?
Well, we were in 4th before this game, so I can only imagine we're higher up now!
HORN-DOGGY!!!
Hah!

That was a funny goal. Hornqvist casually flipped his stick at the puck and scored on his belly

We got frosties...

Or as my son would say: “We want Frosty…the Snowman!”

Haha, that’s cute.

fish?

Maybe this time he gets one also YAY FROSTYS

Nvm horny again from fish.

Yeah, NHL.com says Fish.
I thought I must have farted.

You guys all left me in the other thread. I now know what fresh ice means. :-)

Hahahah!!! Sorry!!

I didn’t even see a “fresh ice” link. Just figured there must be another thread but was wondering how everyone knew to come over.

Detroit lost?

Heck yes.

but STL winning :(

but it is one of those lose-lose games. Doesn’t help for the division, but if Avs lose that is good too.

Unless we go on a crazy-long winning streak

I don’t think we have much chance at the Central title this year.

Sportsclubstats has us at a 0.1% chance…

darnit, there goes the shutout

damn it…. i wanted a donut

Aww...

No more shutout. :(

NOOOoooooo

:(

Pekka’s shutout!

Fudge

There goes the shutout

That was a good shot.
Pekka seems to be losing his stick a lot this year.

(sexual innuendo)

munchkins

No donuts

uh oh

I just lost power. I hope the 3 goal lead is enough cause I won’t be able to watch the rest of the game

Oh no!!!
no worries

It just came back on.

If you run “the Game” app in the background you can listen and still be here.

Amadeus Amadeus...

really?

Where's Suter?

didn’t see him last time with Weber or this time

lolwut... goal?
Horny hat trick>!>!1
SUDDENLY GOALS EVERYWHERE

Horny Hat Trick!

Was that a hattrick then???
that was stick
Yeah, that's pretty definitive.
horny hatty

!!!!!!!!!!

This is a very confusing goal...
Commentators are saying no goal...

How does that work? He hits it in with his stick…

He kicked it, and you can’t see if the stick touches it when its underneath Peters.

at least, that is my interpretation.

Yeah, that makes sense I guess…. I just wanted a Horny Hatty.

me too, I would’ve throw my hat in the ice tray in my freezer

lol

how can they call that a kick? you can’t see ****

Probably had a view from another angle (camera).

That ref needs to be given a wedgie
That is BULL.
No goal?!

Total lies.

Ah come on

I already threw my hat at the tv

Gamecenter gave it to him.
now they took it away :(

We have learned that crashing the net against Peters works really well

Just crash into the goalie

Like in NHL ’94 for SNES.

Goal every time.

garbage

Wtf was that call ref

Aaaand Willy skates right into the guy.

Effective.

Everybody feed Hornquist!
We need a Horny 3(4) goal night.

He needs to stay on the ice for the rest of the game and just stand in front of the goal for a chance.

He pretty much does that already, haha.

can Ellis now pick a fight for a Gordie? Or would every CANES player be afraid of being accused of child abuse? :-)

Was just thinking, “Everyone throw the puck on net and let Horny bang it home.”

"Nashville's Lethal Power Play"

That is so weird to hear

Ain't it the truth.

powerful power play!

Plenty of time and a pp

We've seen some very bad officiating this year. WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just this year? Did you recently get glasses or contacts?

Someone tell those announcers that the one Ref’s jersey disappeared before the game.

Conspiracy!!!!!

PEK-KA! PEK-KA! PEK-KA!
Holy Rinne Batman
I was just about to say that, haha!

Peka is 7 feet tall?

our 2012

Draft pick will be

HUMAN ROCKET SHIP!!!
HUMAN ROCKET SHIP!!!
RYAN ELLIS!!!!!!!

HE SCORES GOALS ON THE MOON!!

Take that refs!!!

he scores goals on the moon!

holy crap.. that thing has a laser sight on it
human rocket ship!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Even Weber was like....whoa

Wow, they are just showering the Preds with love

a torrent of good will

4 pp goals

In a game…wtf lol can we keep this team

i wonder if trotz is like, screw it, let's keep ellis on
And what nice words from the Canes color man!
I do kinda wonder..

Do people in Sweden really get up at 4 in the morning to watch NHL hockey? I guess it’s enough if there’s a channel that shows it, but still.

imagine getting up to watch a game like the Dallas game :-(

Americans get up at 5:30 on saturdays to watch soccer.

Not REAL ones.

Real Americans or real soccer matches?

Real Americans.

Soccer matches aren’t real!

This is a variation of my thoughts about that.

And sundays

and sundays.

Remember when the Olympics are overseas and we have to stay up really late to see stuff? I do…

Bridgestone Ice=The Moon
That one goes in his Mojo Account.
they need to show that video at a game

Shea Weber just pulled a Thursday night Suter Special

It just dawned on me that Trotz is giving Ellis PK time.

U were sayin?

That Trotz gave Ellis PK time? Yeah… its still true.

Interesting.

Ellis isn’t happy about that.

Whaaaaaat just happened?
Bouncy goofy goals for the Canes.
Thank God we've scored 5 goals tonight.

HONEY BADGER!

He didn’t score, but he hustled

I saw that too - he and Hustlechuk are talkin'
Nice break up of that 2 on 1 by the HB.
HANDS GO UPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!
HANDS GO UP!

Hands are up!!!

AND THEY STAY THERE!

  1. star should be Horny,

I don’t think Wilson had that good of a game

and with that joke I’m going to sob quietly in a corner. Good night everyone!

Up!

And they stay there!

6th place...

at least for a few hours.

YAY! #1 star!

The highlights are gonna be fun to watch!
I guess the concensus is the last Canes goal was off of Ellis' keester.
Not really his fault, then. Not a lot you can do about goals like that.
TIL

Why the Preds have one of the top PP units in the league right now.

So nuts.

Lane Lambert + Shea Weber.

And in all fairness, a backup goalie.

They still count.
Everyone plays bad teams, everyone plays backups.

Even though I have heard the Preds play backups more than any other team.

That's interesting.

I wonder why.

our offense doesn't exactly dare teams to scare them into putting their starters in

although i think our defense looks improved over last year

i mean offense, defense took a dive from last year

Haha. I knew what you meant.

Tonight it was probably BC

they played a back to back and used their starter against the team in their conference.

What was the tally tonight? 3/3?
Honey Badger on the post game!
TIL

That I can have Honey Badger AND the Human Rocket Ship score AND Horny score, AND still enjoy our powerful powerplay!

Hope CHI and DET don't go to OT tomorrow...

I don’t know who to cheer for.

Detroit.

Always any and everyone over Chicago.

Not me. I was a ’hawks fan once…after my team was stolen from me.

God, I can’t stand them.

why is that?

Can’t be as bad as Detroit fans or Vancouver fans…

Ooooh their fans are pretty bad.

I lived with them for 4 years. I couldn’t handle how they reacted when they beat Nashville… pompous and rude and obnoxious.

So...

Winnipeg fans to any fan of a team below the 39th parallel?

I guess so. I don’t know much about the Winnipeg fans, but I’ll assume they’re obnoxious.

I still hate HATE the goal song though.

yeah it's lame
I find it so hard to pull for Detroit...

weird since I was a fan before the Preds came to Nashville. I was even a fan for a few years after, until the Predators became competitive.

HOLY ANGRY SMITHSON

run predobear

He saw you

I think that is the most disturbingly ANGRY face I've ever seen.
That may be the only picture I have seen of him where he didn't look 18.

I’m likin that picture. He’s got that angry bear look, the hands in the air are intimidating in this case.

I just wish STL would lose...

I thought after the Preds beat them they would go into a tailspin, but they have responded nicely.

The Preds need to take care of the Avalanche the next 2 games. Those games could make a big difference in the standings.
