Nice new ice content comment there, Dirk

It shows that he really values and appreciates us

clap-clap-clap-clap Deep in the heaaaaaarrrrt of Texas

Go Preds!

Finish this up with a solid 20 minutes and a W!

CooL if halibut gets a goal

I thought it was Treebeard.

That doesn’t have Hal in it

Oh, hey… we had a good 2nd period.

Finding some funny ones tonight

That is… incredible

i take it noone can translate that

“To shutout or not to shutout- Pekka Rinne and finnish NHL news, Finnish goaltenders become powerful

You beat me to it! I almost had it. Well done.

Squeeee

I would love to have that as a poster!!!

Caption contest! :-)

totally awesome.
I didn’t know Peks could look that mean.

lol my friend messsaged me from the game, and she said that a lady asked what jersey she was wearing….yeah…she was wearing the gold jersey

hunh, you see a ton of Golden Seals jerseys these days

i mean she was wearing the gold preds jersey, and the lady asked what team’s jersey that was….herp derp

I’m just teasing :)

Well, I’ve got to head out. I’ve got the late Rec League game tonight.

GO PREDS!

Good luck, be safe!

Dallas really knows how to fill an arena...
Gill's not the speediest man in the world
lol

you saw that too?

But he only has to cross the blue line to touch up for icing.
Doesn't need to be when you reah from one blue line to the other.

That’s why they call him the USS Hal Gill.

wow….peks put his whole body into that one

kinda looked like a baby giraffe

I wonder if Lehtonen preferred the humidity or the dry heat

he gets both in Dallas

And Kleins man gets behind him.

He needs to play the man, not the puck.

I think I have Kleinflu

Is there always someone standing behind you?

Yes, yes I do ;-(

people whizzing past you all the time?

Hal ‘The Glacier’ Gill

He’s not THAT fast

do you want it done fast?

or do you want it done right?

Am I reading that headline right on Puckdaddy?.

Lundquist is not Hart worthy. Not on that team, with that payroll.

that’s gonna go to datsyuk or malkin…sorry lundy

I am not going to even read it. Nonsense.

lundy is having a banner year

but that team is stacked

he’ll probably get the vezina though

speaking of…they’re only up 1-0 on cbj in the second

Wondering where all those Rinne should be a Hart finalist articles were last year?

I don’t know about Hal GIll yet, but Yip’s been great.

Hal gill would like that puck.

And he takes it!

That man is freaking HUGE!!

LOL That Dallas player just bounced off Gill

Saw that. He took a violent impact, and Gill just stood there as though nothing happened!

This 10-11-74 line is driving me insane. How bout we put a shooter on that line instead of Pass Passer and Passerer.

But it's passeriffic!

if someone scored they’d fight over who gets the assist. It’s mine! No mine! No, it’s mine!

Passes are for…well…we know

Looks like one of our guys got elbowed in the head as they cleared the zone a second ago. Was worried about that, but guess it wasn’t anything much

no penalties yet….good disciplined hockey

We are playing with fire here. Wake up, guys!
thank you mr. post

Hal Gill is the new Chuck Norris

let's start making Hal Gill jokes.
gill has more shots on goal then sk

I have more shots on goal than SK

to be fair gill also has more SOG then marty
and smith

who’s he trying to impress here?

i dunno

I’m sure someone will point out to him soon that shooting the puck is not The Predator Way.

Hal Gill can slam a revolving door

what a shift by bourque. Get that man more ice time!!!!
HB needs a goal BADLY.

An even strength one would be better for him from a confidence standpoint, I would think. I’d like to see him pick things up as well and again be another weapon for teams to have to deal with.

i am shocked that we have no penalties yet

would anyone be fooled of we let Pekka takes a few shifts and Gill mans the net?
I think the lack of pads on Gill might tip them off

And seeing Rinne skate around with that goalie stick.

No, Gill is taller.
the pads would kind of give it away
i don't think gill has the speed for goal
He goes from 0 to 60

sometimes

feet per hour?

With pads all he would have to do is stand there.

Then we could boast having 19’6" of goalie!

No one could beat out goalie size!
The Yip Flip

Dallas announcers with some good ones tonight.

That was funny, I heard that too.
ellis has a massive 3:27 tio
the coaches don't want him getting a concussion

against these dirty RATS

not alot of shots on goal this game
Nope. 16-20 Stars

i’m glad we’re winning….but we’re helping out the dirty ducks for a playoff spot

but we're helping ourselves out more
besides ducks wouldn't make it past the wings

MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

Cheer for the Ducks we might get to play them in the playoffs again

i highly doubt in the first round

I couldn’t do it. All the vomiting would get in the way.

Yup. I’d have to kill myself for doing it. Then I’d miss Preds games. Not worth it.

not to mention the mess

Sometimes these things happen

Oh well.

Chicago is one point behind us. I care a LOT more about us.

Also, I’m not worried about Anaheim making the POs. They won’t go anywhere.

wow…cbj – rangers game tied at 1

Maybe CBJ is starting their playoff run.

I did not see that one coming.

Or Buffalo putting up 6 on Pittsburgh

hahahahahah

cbj just setting themselves up for an epic defeat

rangers just fixed that
Hal Gill can't beat other guy in icing

But then just pushes the guy off the puck.

Hey, if it works.
I was just saying that.

He doesn’t have to touch up for icing. He just engulfs the other player.

i don’t know….the rangers were slumpbusters for the hawks….anything’s possible

whoops….wrong post lol

I always giggle to myself

When an announcer says a guy “hit the pipe” when talking about hitting the post.

I wish Stars would hit the pipe. Crack smokers are notoriously bad at hockey.

@puckscenedotcom Pekka Rinne’s 3rd assist and 3rd point of the year are new Nashville Predators’ single season records for goaltenders.

Hahaha, that's awesome.
pekka setting all sorts of records
breaking records

it’s what he does.

I’m surprised Evil Knievil Vokoun didn’t have more than that

Man, he scared the HELL out of me sometimes.

He was a bold and daring man. I wonder if he still plays like that.

apparently he and Dunham both had 2 point seasons but never a 3.

shoot
shoot

We could really use that disallowed goal right about now.

Someone fire up the Wayback Machine.

Uh-huh, yep.

Too lackadaisical.

common guys seriously
No no no....

NO. Crap.

rinne never saw that

From the replay it looked like he had a good angle to see it.

where’s our rally picture?

Looks like it went off a skate.
i think it went off the star in front with our dman
don't hit the panic switch yet

it’s 3-2

Just need HB to get one, now!
RALLAY!!!

Nice. Not that creepy bad luck cat

This one is very Honey-Badger-y.
UNLEASH HELL!

None of that carp Willy

We don't do Easy.
PEKKA STOP SCARING ME.
but that's what Pekka does best
I know.... but I don't like it...

We really need to stop with these no-look centering passes that give them odd breaks.

Gabby is a hustling fool.

of course….a penalty with the game on the line

One thing I have noticed about Erat this year ...

He seems to be doing a much better job in one on one battles. Really fights for the puck now days .

wow....PK time
this is looking scarily familiar to the boston game
Who was that??? What happened??

Gill. The Dallas player fell on Gill’s stick. Weak sauce.

and of all people Gill
Yeah, he is supposed to kill em' not take em'

At least we can ice when they pull the goalie

Eh....

That’s kind of a sketchy call… but wahtever.

Ryder skated right into it!
good penalty draw then
You know its hard to be a good PK guy

when you’re the one in the box.

Great. Our new PK specialist in the box, down one, two minutes to go. Sheesh.

need a Leggy.

Lucky. I’ll take it.

Killed for the win!

They can’t make this easy on me, can they?

what a white knuckle ending
game

Good win

Phew.. was close there at the end

BUT PREDS WIN!

Kilt

and hands go up!!!!

HANDS GO UP!!!!

DAMN we needed that.

Hands go up!

Oops. Not only is that really big, but I forgot a title. : /

She poked me in the eye.

Took one for the team…

man that was rough
But we got the points!!!
thats about as close to a 60min effort as weve had since the break

Now back to Smashville. Gut the fish on Tuesday Boys!

Time for sushi!

hopefully davisca will have her Free Willy photoshop ready, lol

I’ll be there!

Oh yeah!

Now over to Copper and Blue to cheers on EDM against VAN till bedtime. Gnight and good hockey to all!

Yeeeeeee!!

love that show!

Is that when Robert Mull comes in?

love this show...

Is this when Gene Parmesan makes one of his patented appearances?!!?

Gene Parmesan?!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!

And yes, I think it is. I’m so excited for the new season, oh man. It’s gonna be awesome.

woah barley held on
That was too close in the end.

Got a two goal lead and got lazy.
