Devils vs. Flyers, Game 2

April 16, 2010 by Pookie

As you know, we’re big believers in signs around here. Before Game 1, Pookie was stuck behind a Tastykake truck on 195. Today? She was stuck behind a Drake’s truck. You know what this means! Devils lose! Again! Why? Because they always do! Join us for more relentless negativity in the open thread!

Sooo… Fleury didn’t realize the game had started yet, eh?

So I had minor wrist surgery last week and today I went to get the bandages removed and get some exercises to do from the physical therapist. It was in a different part of the office than I’d been in previously and there were all these signed pictures of Marty made out to one of the surgeons at the practice (not my surgeon).

I think that should be interpreted as a good sign (just because).
on April 16, 2010 at 7:16 pm Amy

I have Pittsburgh as my top team in the Frisby Bowl. Yay for me, I guess.
on April 16, 2010 at 7:18 pm Mags

Devils lose! Again! Why?

Because I’m awake and they want to punish me for it!

I have Pittsburgh as my top team in the Frisby Bowl. Yay for me, I guess.

Uh, yeah, have fun with that.

Stuck behind a Drake’s truck? Is that a rental truck? Just checking. I googled “Drake’s New Jersey” and it looks like they rent tents.

Oh, and Pookie, I went to the library this week. Stocking up on my Feng Shui knowledge again!

Hi Mags. Hey, what time do the games start in the Netherlands? Poor you. It’s like watching the Olympics when they’re in Australia for us.

Yeah, I have them as the top team in the East too. Oops.

I agree!
on April 16, 2010 at 7:24 pm Pookie

Oh, and Pookie, I went to the library this week.

Yay! I’m so glad to hear your library card is getting a work out!

Also, Drake’s is a snack-cake company competitor to Tastykake. It doesn’t have any Jersey connection; it just not Philly. Heh.
on April 16, 2010 at 7:24 pm Schnookie

there were all these signed pictures of Marty made out to one of the surgeons at the practice (not my surgeon).

I think that’s definitely a good sign! (I’m sorry you had to have wrist surgery, though.)

Because I’m awake and they want to punish me for it!

Hm. That’s less of a good sign. I’m feeling very conflicted.

And I picked the Pens to lose in the first round, so I’m feeling very smrt right now. :D
on April 16, 2010 at 7:25 pm Pookie

Whoa, that juggling was intense!
on April 16, 2010 at 7:25 pm Mags

what time do the games start in the Netherlands?

Theoretically the Devils start at 1:30. They never do though, puck always drops about 10-15 minutes later. Unfortunately I can’t find the flipping radio *grumbegrumblegrumble*
on April 16, 2010 at 7:29 pm Schnookie

I have so much more faith in my Frisby Bowl picks now that I know they’re in the hands of a juggling goalie.
on April 16, 2010 at 7:30 pm Meg

(I’m sorry you had to have wrist surgery, though.)

Thanks. My surgeon told me that on a scale of 1-10 it was a .5 so I figure I got off pretty easy.
on April 16, 2010 at 7:31 pm Mags

My surgeon told me that on a scale of 1-10 it was a .5 so I figure I got off pretty easy.

That’s nice :) Regardless of that, I’m sorry you had to have surgery too.

on April 16, 2010 at 7:37 pm Schnookie

My official Serious Commentary on this Devils game is that I am still seethingly furious that they didn’t take at least 40 shots in game 1. Boucher will give up bad goals, but when the Devils are deferring to each other all the time and refusing to just shoot the fucking puck, it doesn’t matter who’s in goal. I could beat the Devils when they’re being that disinterested in shooting. I want to see 40 shots tonight! Or 50! Hell, go for 60! I don’t care if they’re shitty shots, because Boucher is more than capable of giving up shitty goals. And that’s my story. Heh.

Is Leopold actually out cold? Fscking radio cut out.

Ilya, you’re an idiot.
on April 16, 2010 at 7:43 pm Schnookie

Wait, that’s a penalty on Kovalchuk? Standing there and getting skated into by Carcillo? Really?
on April 16, 2010 at 7:44 pm kristin

That was a pretty weak call. Carcillo skated right into his elbow!

It’s actually a guaranteed win for you because I am watching the game. I missed Wednesday’s game.
on April 16, 2010 at 7:49 pm Mags

Ho boy. Can the Devils refuse to take the PP?
on April 16, 2010 at 7:49 pm Pookie

I’m pretty sure it’s a guaranteed loss because I’m feeling good about the team right now. That’s always a recipe for disaster.
on April 16, 2010 at 7:49 pm Schnookie

Have you had any effect on the Habs/Caps series? Are you equally lucky with the Habs?
on April 16, 2010 at 7:50 pm kristin

I appear to be good luck for the Habs, so that’s good news for Caps haters!
on April 16, 2010 at 7:51 pm kristin

Cmon guys, Boosh has 9 wins this season, there is no way the Flyers are making it to the next round!

:^:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: I have to agree with TG’s bottom line on this series — if you can’t beat Brian Boucher in a seven-game series, you’re not a very good hockey team.
on April 16, 2010 at 7:54 pm wraparounddostres

Ho boy. Can the Devils refuse to take the PP?

I groaned when I saw a Flyer skating to the box, and I swear, I was wondering if they could just say, “no, no thanks, we were doing pretty good when we were down a man though, so if you want to put one of us in the box, they hey, go for it!”

on April 16, 2010 at 8:00 pm Schnookie

I have to echo TG’s sentiment following that Beaks/Mottau sequence — if you can’t beat Mike Mottau one-on-one, you’re not a very good hockey player. :P
on April 16, 2010 at 8:01 pm Pookie

Look at Langer busting his ass there. ::eyeroll::

I think that Drake’s truck that Pookie saw today was actually a Tastykake truck in disguise.

Also, Marty blows.

kristin, you are SO welcome to be a comment slut if it’s going to help us. (And I was kind of bummed that we wouldn’t be able to watch the Flyers’ first round on Comcast, but now you’re reminding me that Jonesy is on Versus, so Clement’s wit and wisdom has been unleashed on the Flyers feed. I’m not sure who would win an asinine-off between him and Chico. It would be a battle for the ages, for sure.)

I don’t wanna talk smack so much as just give some Philly love. Devs are my #2 team and I thoroughly enjoy this blog

Awww, thanks! ::Blushes:: I honestly had no idea there was anyone besides the two of us who considered the Flyers and Devils as 1-2 in their heart, in any order! I thought we were sick in the head for liking the Flyers second-best, but I guess if you’re okay with it, we can be okay with it! :D
on April 16, 2010 at 8:28 pm Nooie

Well, if any of my hockey buddies knew I said that the Devs are my #2 I’m pretty sure I’d end up floating in the Schuylkill. They are firmly under the impression that the Black Cawks are my #2…
…Mostly because I can call them the Black Cawks

Hey, have you met carolbrowne over here? She calls them that, too!

When we admitted to our unholy tranny marriage to the Flyers, we ended up spending both intermissions during one of our few trips up to The Rawk being berated by one of the other Devils bloggers for being “too orange”. Dude, whatever. I’ll take being too orange over being too blue any day. :P

Woo-hoo! I’m back to feeling good about this game! Thanks for being the reason the Devils won, Kristin! I give you first star of the game.

Have fun at Game 3, Nooie!
on April 16, 2010 at 10:16 pm Patty (in Dallas)

WOOOO! Devils win! I TOLD you!
on April 16, 2010 at 10:17 pm Schnookie

G’night, Nooie! Thanks for watching the game with us! I hope you get as good a game at the FU Center (I can’t call it the Wachovia Center. I just can’t!) — complete with Devils win! :D

And is Zach growing a flavor saver or is that just dirt?

:^:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Probably yes and yes. He’s not allowed to bring Boxworthy to the team hotel, and that’s what happens when he goes a few days without his turtle-of-affairs. He just falls completely apart.

Pookie just suggested he set the P-Zachinator (the hair spiking machine) to “Bourque”.

Crap. What a waste of good beer.

Thanks Ookies! It’s nice to know you would be looking at me with admiration and love, instead of the daggers I’m getting from Rod. First star! Awesome!

I’m going to try to kidnap Ryan Parent before game 3. Watch for me on the news!

Good night, Nooie!

Are y’all watching the DET-PHO game? Can we trash talk that one?
on April 16, 2010 at 10:38 pm Kathleen

I’m watching during Chi-Nash breaks. I did notice it was 1-0 for the Coyotes, so yay :)
on April 16, 2010 at 10:40 pm Patty (in Dallas)

Kronwall forgot to wait until a Coyote was near him to take his dive. :)

How’s your game going, Kathleen?
on April 16, 2010 at 10:40 pm Nooie

G’nite y’all. see ya tuesday
on April 16, 2010 at 10:42 pm Pookie

We’ve got the DET-PHX game on here. Trash talk away! I’ll start — Zetterberg’s beard is so beautiful it beeps when he backs up.
on April 16, 2010 at 10:44 pm Kathleen

Hmm, this Pekka Rinne person is good.
on April 16, 2010 at 10:46 pm Patty (in Dallas)

Detroit: What?! They scored? Don’t they know who we are?
on April 16, 2010 at 10:47 pm Patty (in Dallas)

If I liked beards, I might be swayed by his, but fortunately I don’t. :D

Zetterberg: Your loss. *beep beep beep beep*
on April 16, 2010 at 10:56 pm Kathleen

Ruh roh. If Phoenix loses tonight it’s going to be a very bad night for my Frisby points.
on April 16, 2010 at 10:57 pm Kathleen

oh jesus, blackhawks.

It turns out that whoever it was that I let pick my Frisby Bowl bracket is a TOTAL MORON who knows nothing about hockey.
on April 16, 2010 at 11:10 pm Patty (in Dallas)

Just saw a sign that said, “I [picture of a paw] my Yotes!”

Cute!
on April 16, 2010 at 11:14 pm Pookie

I’m holding up a sign that says “I [picture of a paw] my Zetterberg’s beeping beard”. Do you think that’s cute?
on April 16, 2010 at 11:14 pm Schnookie

Hint: Pookie’s sign is adorable.

Zetterberg just scored that for his beeping beard’s biggest fan. :P
on April 16, 2010 at 11:21 pm Schnookie

Okay, now my tin foil hat is all in a knot.
on April 16, 2010 at 11:22 pm Patty (in Dallas)

Heh. Heh heh heh.

Pookie your sign is adorable. Just not very original. :P
on April 16, 2010 at 11:25 pm Patty (in Dallas)

What happened to Chicago?! I thought they were going to go all the way, moron that filled out my bracket, too.

This game is nutters. Er, I mean, a conspiracy of nutterness!
on April 16, 2010 at 11:27 pm Patty (in Dallas)

Mmmmm. Spunky!
on April 16, 2010 at 11:29 pm Schnookie

:^::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: I’d say we’ve both learned a lesson this year, but I suspect I’ll let that moron fill out my bracket next year, too.
on April 16, 2010 at 11:29 pm Kathleen

I’m puttering around getting ready for bed, but every time I look over there’s a new score. The eff?
on April 16, 2010 at 11:29 pm Schnookie

Okay, you know what? This Wings/Coyotes game is AWESOME.
on April 16, 2010 at 11:31 pm Kathleen

What happened to Chicago?! I thought they were going to go all the way

To be fair, the last 2 were empty-netters. I thought they were mostly okay… but they do love to blow it in the third.
on April 16, 2010 at 11:48 pm Patty (in Dallas)

To be fair, the last 2 were empty-netters.

Well, I’ll give them that this time. :P
on April 17, 2010 at 12:11 am Patty (in Dallas)

I wonder if Darren McCarty is going to analyze the video of that uncalled high-stick against a Coyote and determine it’s a travesty.
on April 17, 2010 at 12:15 am Tim

Coming home to a 5-3 win after teaching a filthy Flyer fan how to hurl was nice. Beer was nice too.
on April 17, 2010 at 12:16 am Patty (in Dallas)

Hockey is fun. :D
on April 17, 2010 at 12:19 am Schnookie

Sounds like a good time was had by all, Tim! :D
on April 17, 2010 at 12:42 am Kathleen

Nabakov is the worst playoff goalie EVER.
on April 17, 2010 at 12:46 am Schnookie

Oooh, we missed whatever Nabokov did. What happened??
on April 17, 2010 at 1:58 pm Patty (in Dallas)

My sister (in Tulsa) is watching this game, so don’t embarrass me, Sabres! :D

(I see that you’re doing a fine job so far.)
on April 17, 2010 at 2:06 pm Kathleen

This game is awesome. The Bruins are never going to score. NEVER!!!!
on April 17, 2010 at 2:08 pm Kathleen

Last night dropped me from 3rd place in Frisbybowl to tied for last. Fuck hell kitten mittens indeed.
on April 17, 2010 at 2:08 pm Meg

Let’s hope not because now if they do it’s sooooooo your fault, Kathleen. ;)
on April 17, 2010 at 2:09 pm Kathleen

Yeah, I know. But the Sabres are making me feel very confident. Cocky, even. Or it could be the 4 cups of coffee (and counting) I’ve had today.
on April 17, 2010 at 2:32 pm Kathleen

oops. i apologise.
on April 17, 2010 at 2:51 pm Patty (in Dallas)

I’ll be honest. I could have sworn Satan had retired years ago.
on April 17, 2010 at 3:10 pm EJGRgunner

I could have sworn Satan had retired years ago.

The second greatest trick he ever pulled was convincing the world he retired.

Chara is an effing f-hole

OK, normally I’m not a huge fan of the Satan/Satan jokes, but that one? Very well done. My hat’s off to you. :^::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
