Marlies Talk 14/15 | aka What's Nylander up to?

[WhatIfGodWasALeaf]

Snizzbone rings the pipe on the PP.

 

[WhatIfGodWasALeaf]

3-2 Griffins, banked it in off Gibson, good initial save, but two goals now Gibson has been clueless on.

 

[Stickytape]

Just not getting the bounces.

 

[WhatIfGodWasALeaf]

Griffins 4-2 on the PP.

Marlies special teams embarrassing yet again, Dineen has enough there to form a good couple of units, still want Keefe in there next season.

 

[WhatIfGodWasALeaf]

Finishes 5-4 with two late goals for the Marlies, things got a little ornary at the end too.

Those Griffins announcers sucked

Just read Bibeau gets the start tonight.

Just read Bibeau gets the start tonight.

Hopefully he's a bit of a ringer, had two big games in game 7's in Jnr last year.

1-0 Grand Rapids at 08:49 of the 1st.

Oh my...

1-1 Carrick ties it up

They are reviewing the play and they show a replay of it overtly going in and the Grand Rapids announcers....ah yeah...maybe not.  They are honestly challenged.

 

[L K]

Holy smokes.  Grand Rapids had a wide open net from 5 feet out and Bibeau reaches back and makes an incredible save. 

 

[WhatIfGodWasALeaf]

Holy smokes.  Grand Rapids had a wide open net from 5 feet out and hit the post.

It deflected off Bibeau's force field.

 

[L K]

Pulkkinen has 6 or 7 shots in the game already.  He's easily the best player on either team.  If Detroit offers him for Phaneuf I think I take it.

 

[L K]

Oh my what a terrible play.  Bibeau drops the puck for the Marlies defenseman who skates right by the puck and doesn't take it and the Griffins get a tap in for free.

 

[WhatIfGodWasALeaf]

If that's the play that ends the season it'll sting even more. Bibeau has kept them in this one.

 

[L K]

Grand Rapids player jumps a Marlie from behind and their announcers are apoplectic that they got the extra penalty.

 

[L K]

And now the Marlies get a long 5 on 3 after a puck over the glass.  Big opportunity to tie the game.

 

[WhatIfGodWasALeaf]

Why is the Leafs are the only team that don't have a set of homers like this calling games?

Closest thing is Bowen, but even he gives credit to opposing teams.

Big 5 on 3 here for the Marlies.
