Ducks Gameday -- Happy Irish Day

Chicago Blackhawks (whatever) at Anaheim Ducks (whatever), 7 pm
Second City Hockey and Anaheim Calling for more informed views.

Well, this is going to be an awfully uninformed gameday post.  The good news is that after a solid week of steady dedication, I'm now fully caught up on "Lost" -- now I've seen them all.  The bad news is that in that time I've completely ignored NHL hockey and this blog -- I really haven't even investigated what's been going on outside of the games I went to on Friday (yuck) and on Sunday (yay).

But it's time I took some Dharma Initiative and put together something to comment on tonight:

Irishducks1_medium
I'll drink to that.

Happy drinking tonight!  I'll get back up to blogging speed on Friday.

Prediction: I'm supposed to play Spade some NHL09 before tonight's game, where I figure he'll finally score past my diving-man defense.  Ducks then lose early so we can rematch.

Go Ducks.

I’m supposed to play Spade some NHL09 before tonight’s game, where I figure he’ll finally score past my diving-man defense

unfortuntatly there is no button to do a pronger kesler stomp when your guys do that..or I would have done that already..I do try the pronger elbows…but they usually get called as cross checks

ill be ready somtime after 5:30 after i eat a tuna sandwhich.yum

this is a re-post cuz no one reads my shit:

Corey Crawford will start in net for the Chicago Blackhawks against the Anaheim Ducks.

hey takes me back to the early mighty ducks days when every team would start there 2nd or 3rd goaltender for lack of respect to rest there number one goalie……first calder called up now this?…first they peed on our grave…now the world is dancing on it…hot doggie

to be honest i havent watched a ducks game since the game we went to…but i will tonite..wont miss the chance to se teemu score his 600th on a sub-par-backup-3rd string-goalie-that-we-will-make-look-like-a-vezina-candidate

Yeah, no doubt — though it’ll still be impressive. Teemu’s playing with a bum shoulder to add to his various jaw and hand ailments. Good luck, Broken Man.

Ivanans can actually do some pretty good stuff in the games. Really, it’s all about the gamer. I mean, in NHL 10, Fredrik Modin has 3 goals in the first 5 games of GM 0mode for me……..

That’s how it’s starting — we’ll see. One thing that’s good is that it puts defensive-minded Carter out against Hossa, and it doesn’t disrupt other lines. And at least it’s a guy named “Ryan”.

He had gotten rid of the puck and Ovechkin pushed him numbers into the boards. That’s boarding.

I’m more pissed that once again Ovechkin went dirty on a player and then lied on the ice like he was hurt. That’s the third time I’ve seen him do it: first against Brown, then against Gleason, now against Campbell.

That was interference. What the hell?

Maybe they were the same refs that worked the Kings-Preds game? Bleugh.

That’s very possible. Do they just hate the team that’s higher up in the standings? Or do they just want to make sure Anaheim, Detroit, and Calgary all make the playoffs?

I don’t think they have it in for any team in particular…their blind side is just right in front of their faces, which makes things very weird.

Nice use of fags. you should say it with a hard F though. It makes it sound less gay.

Sigh.

I’m relatively new to SCH and even I know that redtribe14 is a troll that masquerades as a Blackhawks fan.

Apologies to all you BoC fans for his comment. Please know that he is not representative of any of SCH or Blackhawk fans in general (although I do hate me some Wiz & zebras today. Did someone pay them off? Obviously your bribe amounts were higher than mine). Actually, I think redtribe has already been banned from SCH as well as a couple other blogs, which is probably why he trolls in other places.

by ahnfire on Mar 18, 2010 1:10 AM PDT up reply actions  

I have no beef with hating on the refs after this game — a few boggling calls, including the fact that it was somehow 5-on-5 after the Wiz hit.

And Perry should have been called on that Koivu game-winner, instead he earns first star of the game. As I said on Twitter:

OK, now this is the most questionably-officiated game ever.

But yeah, “fags” is pretty lowbrow. We probably won’t ban, but I’ll laugh.

I’m not sure if the Ducks win is good or bad for the Kings. On one hand, the Ducks knocked Seabrook out of the game, and Campbell is still hurt (thanks Ovi, I guess…) And now we have the opportunity for a SoCal rape.

On the other hand, Blackhawks are gonna be crazy pissed and will probably take their frustration out on us… I don’t know. I’ll be too focused on my calculus midterm to give a fuck either way tomorrow night, but we’ll see.

I guess… yay Ducks?

Yay Ducks indeed. Last time I saw anyone dive as hard as Sopel did tonight was the night Jaromir Jagr almost killed sean avery.

by Natesaduck on Mar 18, 2010 12:26 AM PDT reply actions  

I don’t even know that I’d call Sopel’s fall a dive — he got dirty-pushed by Perry while reaching up for the puck.

http://www.battleofcali.com/

by Earl Sleek on Mar 18, 2010 1:02 AM PDT up reply actions  

Look at the replay again. Ya Perry hits him, but Sopel straight-up JUMPS forward. If Perry was really strong enough to deck Sopel that easily then he probably benches 300 lbs.

by Natesaduck on Mar 18, 2010 1:52 AM PDT reply actions  

Yeah, it wasn’t because he was jumping up into the air for the puck or anything…

by Nut on Mar 18, 2010 6:45 AM PDT up reply actions  

I was watching the highlights, and when that came up I literally shouted “how is that not a penalty?” Then I saw the other angle, and Sopel just jumps. As much of a “dive” as I’ve ever seen.

Denis Gauthier sucks at hockey... and life.

by Kevin Y on Mar 18, 2010 7:18 AM PDT up reply actions  

Yeah a bit of a dive…I don’t know how else he would get up after being shoved down…
He literally falls at the wrong angle.
Not that it wasn’t a penalty on Perry though. It should have been 2 for cross checking/ interference and 2 for diving.

by Steven Hida on Mar 18, 2010 7:35 AM PDT up reply actions  

2 for interferance...

He hit him with one hand, his stick was in the other. Not crosschecking…

I thought it was a dive at first too but then I thought taking a dive at that point would be stupid, and I also thought that to take a dive the following has to happen…

1) You have to recognize it as a dive opportunity (he had to know perry was going to push him)
2) You have to decide to take the dive when the opportunity presents itself
3) You have to execute it so that your dive happens when the other player looks like he’s doing somthing to you. (when perry has his hand on his back)

The timing of him jumping forward is too quickly coincidental to Perry’s push for him to have gone through all of that. If it was truly a dive there would have been some set up or delay to the perry push.

More likely, I think Sopal jumps up to bat the puck and Perry pushes him after he’s left his feet. Sopal is in there air so he’s got no way to counteract the push so he goes flying even though Perry didn’t push him very hard.

by Jietoh on Mar 18, 2010 8:08 AM PDT up reply actions  

Maybe but he was on the ground until the exact moment of contact. so is it just a real good coincidince?

by Steven Hida on Mar 18, 2010 8:11 AM PDT up reply actions  

Yup — this reasoning is sound. And if it was somehow a quick-decision dive, I still can’t believe it didn’t work. I mean, it’s Perry. That guy was born guilty.

http://www.battleofcali.com/

by Earl Sleek on Mar 18, 2010 8:19 AM PDT up reply actions  

Either way, at most it should’ve been either 2 on both or just 2 on Sopel. Don’t think Anaheim should’ve gotten the only penalty, so I have no problem with the fact that a goal was scored on the play.

Denis Gauthier sucks at hockey... and life.

by Kevin Y on Mar 18, 2010 11:05 AM PDT up reply actions  

Wait, I just make the argument that it wasn’t a dive, that it was interferance on Perry and you say “either way” Sopel should have gotten 2?

by Jietoh on Mar 18, 2010 12:04 PM PDT up reply actions  

…….I don’t know anymore. It was a strange game all the way through, and I’m not sure the refs knew what they were doing. I’m surprised there was no spearing anywhere.

I do think it was a dive though.

I was at the game and was surprised that they let the goal stand. But I knew it would be a bad ref’ed game. They had that really tall ref and his group is terrible. They make bad calls and can’t get out of the way of the puck. At one point the ref actually bumped into the back of a Hawk fan (it was after play was stopped), I laughed cause seeing another player hit is always good.

Don’t you hate interference by the ref.

I meant Hawk player. Dang it they don’t let fans onto the ice yet during play. Or else I would so be out their slapping some of our guys when they goof up.

Loved the Perry hit Last nite…getzlaf needs to take a page out of perrys book and be a douche but act like you did nothing…as perry kept getting away with it…was funny after the hit in the back we score..then perry goes into the middle of the pile pushes someone..but still acts like hes doing nothing…it was one of coreys finest moments….

lubo = awesome

and nice how sleek mentions the 1st game we played and not the last 2 we played after the game…
sleek did win the first one 1-0…but I won i think 2-0 and 4-0 afterwards…apprently the rule in sleek-spade nhl 09 games is the other person is not allowed to score…I was schooling mr sleek…finally…avoiding his dumb dives and what not….

till next time….sleek holds the slight series edge at 3-2…
