   Time to restart our two game win streak!

3. -Zep- 2 years ago

   Well 2 wins and 1 loss is .667 Hockey bois. Even better if we get it to OT instead of losing every goddamn time in regulation.

4. Cash_man 2 years ago

   Pleeeeeasseee get a birthday win for me, boys!

5. layout420 2 years ago

   Who’s ready to be up 3-1 going into the 3rd and lose 5-3?? Only way we’re winning tonight is if Ekblad plays less minutes and Gudas can avoid getting reputation calls against him. The rest of the team will also need to play responsibly.

6. DopestSquidEvr 2 years ago

   There’s no shot Bennett plays tonight. Dalpe? Heponiemi?

7. fins831 2 years ago

   How many goals will Ekblad score in our own net tonight? Tune in lol
