I'd say act like you've been there before but you know how that goes with that crap franchise. It's ok to be happy and celebrate a little but the only thing missing was the booming confetti cannons.
They are starting to become one of the most annoying teams, at least to me. Sorry.

Game decided by a terrible call by ref to make up for another terrible call

They've been annoying me for 20 years since going to college in that general vicinity.

I will say, regardless of what occurred with the game, the Spectator Plaza/Fan Fest was actually pretty fun to check out. The best part was the irony that they had an accuracy shooting contest that consisted of putting pucks into a washer/dryer.

That's okay Dejan has been ranting that the games purpose is to build the fan base so who cares about the horrid officiating.

Is the game's purpose not to build the fanbase? Its certainly not to improve the product, otherwise there would never be an outdoor game.

Yeah but it isn't one or the other. You don't excuse terrible calls with "who cares that's not the purpose of the game."

Oh goodness. Giroux in really bad shape coming off the ice. The Canes player helped him to the locker room. Maybe a tendon cut on the back of his ankle

Faulk basically stepped on / slashed across Giroux's lower calf. If he cut the top of the Achilles or through the meat of the calf... he could be gone for a long time.

Bryan Murray blaming Matt Cooke... (Just a little joke there, you know, obviously for the humor - DVE Mario)

Quick question. Are DVE Marios from the cup run achieved anywhere. I can't find them to save my life.

Not sure. DVE needs to do a MUCH better job with their website. It is quite difficult to find things on there.

Agreed. No luck on the YouTube either.

Giroux may play tonight. Kevlar socks. I'm glad. That would be a horrible injury.

Hmm Quick 3 goals against on 9 shots. Rinne 3 goals against on 15 shots. Won't see that happen to those two all that frequently. Nashville up 5-3 in the second period.

Their Comedy Cuts RSS went way, way back and had a ton of the old DVE Mario bits. Then the RSS went cold about 4 months ago and I deleted it. I'll poke around and see what I can find, for the humor.
