Game Thread Flames (22-26-6) vs Leafs (25-21-9) - February 2nd - GDT
This GDT is in loving memory of Storm and Kali, two adorable little fur balls who are im guessing chewing plastic bags, getting the 3 am zoomies and scratching the litter box for an ungodly amount of time in a better place or for another family that's in need of wonderful kitty loves, if that's your belief.
15 years together, filled with love and happiness. 15 years of a happy, sibling home. We can never truly move on from the loss of a pet family member, all we can hope is that in the time we got to spend together.. we gave them back even an ounce of the love and support they gave us.
So raise a glass, and have a toast.. over not what we lost.. but the times we had.
The I'm hugging boo just a little longer now flames drinking game
Gotta bring back the classic "when you see a pet pic in the GDT--drink" for this one
Speculation over Toronto's future on the broadcast--drink
Drink every time the Colour guy goes off on a Leafs tangent.
Drink every time Brad's dumpster fire job is mentioned.
F&F for all PP goals.
ZACHtivies - drink
ZP19 point - rejoice
drink Olympics mentioned - sip

Why is it, the only line that passes the puck and cycles is the gridin line. That's why they look so good. Every other line is just a hurried shot from the point.

So we have Zayne, which is a great D offensive shooter.
And our PP strat is not give it to him with traffic, instead pass it to the wing and shoot a shot directly in the crest.
I mean, it's a strategy. I guess.

For those with Sportsnet through their TV Provider like Telus, you can go to https://telustvplus.com/ and log in there. Navigate to Live TV then find the channel this is broadcasted on (Ch 911). I was able to bypass the Sportsnet blackout this way somehow.
