Re-live the magic: Nucks Misconduct play-by-play
Better than NHL On the Fly, it's the Nucks Misconduct 3rd period/OT open thread. I always appreciate examples of other teams' fans acting as crazy as Kings' fans. And I mean that in a good way. Two three things I want to note about the following transcript:
- I cut it down to size and removed all the attributions because otherwise it would be a million pages long. Follow the link for the whole thing.
- THERE IS MUCH EXTREME LANGUAGE. Which I enjoy. But which might offend some people. You have been warned.
- One of the commenters points out what is possibly the funniest and weirdest thing I've heard all day: Andrew Alberts and Randy Jones were the 3rd pair for the Flyers a couple of years ago?
Okay, here goes. This thing is so long it defeated the quote box formatting. So just know the rest of this is a cut-paste-edit from the above link:
- I (usually) love the 3rd.
- Good god damn Demo. That’s how you enter the zone on a powerplay? Where is the confidence? Talent? Anything?
- Sheesh. Boys better show up in the third.
- Demo’s had almost as much time as Sammy so far. Slightly more than Burrows. Annoying.
- Killer 3rd period coming up.
- can’t believe how miserable i am given that we’re tied thru 2, and up 1 in the series.
- It’s all about the letdown. Had it been reversed, Kings up then Nucks coming back, you’d be ecstatic, despite the identical situation
- i don’t care, that period was brutal and they deserve it.
- The only positive thing I can say about Alberts is that his penalties didn’t cost us and he looked half decent between his penalties.
- Didn't I call it? I said don't get cocky with the lead. remember last year!
- And last time I saw we were winning 2-0. It’s now 2-2. Do I blame Alberts?
- No, it’s a team fail. They stopped owning ES and the Kings roared back. Took advantage of a Salo fuck up to tie it up 30 seconds after they got their first goal.
- Alberts kills momentum faster than getting a phone call from your mom during sex.
- Got a bit more jump so far, that’s better than the majority of the second.
- Quadruple shift the Sedins at this point.
- On that note…what happened to the hyperbolic chamber or whatever that crazy thing was?
- delayed penalty against Vancouver
- Alberts to the box. drink up.
- failberts
- This is like fucking Groundhog Day – the movie.
- Except Groundhog Day is actually entertaining. Watching Alberts is about as entertaining as a root canal.
- I think he’s figured out it’s a drinking game and is trying to punish us now!
- Is my count off, or has Alberts taken 5 out of the 8 Canuck penalties so far this series?
- If Jones gets yanked for the Kings, how the fuck is Alberts still out there after this game? It’s impossible.
- it's not bad, it’s only Alberts
- Ryan Johnson – get well soon buddy, we need ya
- Signed ’Nucks PK
- We need Rome back ASAP. Can’t believe I said that.
- Is [Alberts our] new Bernier? Never-ending chances at redemption?
- Alberts now leads all players in the post season with 23 PIMs. In a game and a half.
- He’s got the IQ of a shit sandwich
- SAVE US LOU!!!
- alberts is totally going to score the OT game-seven-winner, just to make us all confused.
- Forget all that "let’s give Alberts time" stuff I’ve been saying.
- Massive fucking kill. Good job lads.
- finally, sustained pressure
- nevermind
- Andrew Alberts: I just became the mayor of the Vancouver Canucks Penalty Box on Foursquare!
- we’ve had so many 6/7 d-men over the years, surely ONE of them is alive somewhere.
- didn’t Matt Greene used to play for us?
- Thought he played for the Oil?
- he did, nvm. must have confused him with Cookie.
- all those extraneous "e"s
- fun fact: jones and alberts were the third pairing for Philly a year ago (or maybe two years ago). how bad is that?
- How many times have we heard... "…and he shoots and he missed the net?"
- Too close for comfort.
- I LOVE YOU CHRISTIAN EHRHOFF.
- Shoot the damn puck!!
- OH MY GOD!
- son of a bitch
- doughty. fuck this is intense action
- wow doughty.
- I thought that was in.
- MY HEART CAN’T TAKE IT!
- I can’t get over Kopitar’s skill on the boards.
- i want this thing
- to go to ot so i can have a smoke lol. i need to calm down.
- almost feels like LA is due for a break
- its basically been ot for the last 5 mins
- WE are due for a break though. Haven’t had one in 2 periods.
- would only be possible with the benching of alberts, agreed?
- Nah, Canucks look poised to me
- are we watching the same game?
- seems kinda risky to hope for a miracle two games in a row
- My heart is going to stop.
- i think edler is doing well with the playoffs pressure.
- he cleared that shit :)
- Aw man, I don’t think my liver can take another OT.
- Wow that was an exciting period, even without any scoring.
- If this goes like G1 2007 V Dallas, I may shot myself.
- Wow…how does one shot themself?
- goal predictions
- burr/kes.
- Sammy. I had a 3-2 Canucks win with Sammy scoring the winner again
- The killer of Kings™
- dammit… I am so disappointed they haven’t done more to take advantage of a very shaky looking Quick. Too many shots that have missed the net or not taken, the one by Daniel on the 2 on 1 the biggest… forget the pass and fucking shoot…
- how many chances did we miss this period? what play by doughty.
- [Albert's] had a shitty game… rome will come back and he’ll sit until Salo’s annual pulling of his ass muscle, at which point he’ll have had time to think.
- Not feeling confident about OT.
- I’m predicting Ehrhoff for the win.
- Kesler leafs all forwards with 22 minutes.
- YOU FUCKER! You used ‘leafs’ in association with a game…now we’re bound to lose. :(
- haha....opps. sorry!
- Henrik FTW.
- even versus is ragging on alberts saying he’s the reason kings gonna win
- Burrows FTW
- Demitra FTW
- KESLERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR FTW
- Burr for the GWG! hes due for a break. Or maybe Kes, just cause hes so sexy
- Alberts FTW He’s due.
- I’ll donate 100 dollars to canucks for kids fund if alberts gets the GWG lol
- Oh man, that’s awesome. C’mon fate, cash in baby.
- Did McLean just pick 2 Kings to score the winner?
- Modin and Johnston?
- He did indeed!
- He picked Johnson to score against Quick, he’s just not very good with words.
- Jones just said the Kings will win because the Canucks D is "hurting."
- Here we go…
- lol, green men were pisssed at non call
- i saw that too!
- Hello Quick helmet hair.
- he’s actually kinda cute, eh?
- eh? silly canuck
- Quiet. He’s satan.
- aw, come on, who said the devil can’t be tempting?
- he can be tempting after we win
- I agree with Wings fans now. I hate refs.
- he's only cute if he lets the Canucks score
- lol… 2 Canucks Cherry picking XD. Not a good time in a closely contested overtime period.
- Bernier is an idiot.
- I hate how Doughty just outsmarted Bernier… Bernier looked so fucking confused.
- To be fair to Bernier, just about everyone can outsmart him.
- Ooooh, this rookie is LETTING me have the puck! D’oh!
- looks like Alberts is glued to the bench. Finally
- Took 2 periods away from NM, because I had to explain to the girlfriend that there are actually 2 Sedins, (seriously), what icing is, and what a delay of game penalty is.
- She ended up sitting on the edge of her seat for the next hour and half though.
- damn, bench penalty.
- NOOOOOOO
- shit
- COCKMOUTH
- That was a good move by Brown and an equally good recovery by Bieksa.
- FUCK
- i called it i’m afaraid
- Oh dear.
- Everyone’s 1-1
- ANAL BEADS.
- ANZE….stupid fucking shit
- AND Kesler is hurt. Great.
- oh shit, kesler barely getting off the ice!
- What are they chanting?
- Refs you suck.
- if it’s anything other than "alberts is not a decent hockey player", they’re wrong.
- And Captain Caveman puts this one in the books. I saw that one coming.
- hey, that’s your team’s guy. theirs is frankenstein. ;)
- If I’m picking any undead creature for him, it’s a zombie. He wanted Luongo’s Braaaaiiiins on that play. His tasty, tasty Braaaiiiiins.
- Uncle Fester scores
- Off Salo.
- Remember when we were up 2-0? Yeah, me neither.
- NEVERMIND OFF LU’S KNOB.
- CUT THAT CRAP OFF. SERSLY.
- We're in trouble. Absolutely need to go back to Van tied 2-2 at worst.
- LOL punching the panic button already?
- i’m worried, as should be every team going on the road tied
- there went our home-ice advantage.
- Was the reffing as bad as the radio made it out to be?
- No, not really.
- I thought it was bad, could’ve been worse though.
- Lu’s knob again!! wtf
- wow, they were big time screening luongo
- Another one, ricocheting off Luongo’s knob.
- oh no, the knob
- ffs, Luongo should cut the knob off that thing!
- So, stupid penalties by our defenseman have cost us EVERY goal against this series except one tonite. Nice.
- A good play, followed by a stupid penalty, sums up Bieksa perfectly.
- No call on the high stick, no call on running over Lou but they call the bench minor…wow. Are you kidding me?
- refs have to call the bench minor, no choice
- Who posted that we’d rather have Luongo ands knob, rather than Nabokov? Who jinxed it for us?
- between Lu’s stick and Alberts, two knobs are killing the canucks.
- Not only that, but once again Bieksa gets cut by a skate…is his skin magnetic or something?
- Suck a dick, Anze. Canucks gave him too much space
- Canucks should have drafted him.
- No panic from me, just extreme disappointment at the way the game was shaped by the officials all night long. We as fans deserve better than than Junior B quality officiating
- missed calls, double standards… the burrows highstick especially. I hate that ‘followthru’ nonsense. Either you have to be responsible for your stick or you don’t. Stop giving players an out. The blown icing was bad too…
- that’s not on the refs. that’s in the rulebook.
- The Kings learned from their mistakes. Now it’s Vancouver’s turn.
- Umpteen chances to score in the 3rd not converted, exactly like game 1. Only this time we paid for it.
- As much as it sucks that they keep getting called for penalties, the PK HAS to be better. They’re looking BRUTAL out there.
- Blowing a 2-0 lead though…not cool. That’s some deja vu right there. Bad habit.
- anyone have a good view of what happened in that bench penalty?
- HNIC looked at that in depth. they found 7 Canucks on the ice at once.
- Smart play by the Kings D to push the puck into that area to ‘draw the penalty’.
- i'm going to bed.
- good night all.
