Now is as good a time as any to get Bryz on a roll. 4 road games against teams he has seen many times for most of his career, no back to backs. He needs to play all 4 games.

Lets see a 4-0 road trip.

That would be Humongous Big!

at least it's not a 10:30 start

Yeah... Next Tuesday. On TCN. It's like watching on 1980's Islanders TV. You're already bleary-eyed because of the hour, why should they put it on a good station?

Maybe it's inconvenient for you blessed folk who don't have to work late this time of year, but I for one welcome any late starts.

I used to love late games on the West Coast when I worked at a supermarket. 11-7:30, 12-8:30, 5-11, etc. Now that I'm old(er)? Not so much.

Yes, but it's still not as good a quality feed as CSN-HD. Audio is like the can-phones in the Progresso commercials.

Gotta play smart and stay out of the penalty box tonight. Can't give the Oilers' power play any opportunities at all.

That said, any ideas as to which refs are working the game?

- tangent_man


Haven't see a game notes packet posted yet. I'll post the refs (both here and on Twitter) when I do.

It's also supposed to be on NBC Sports that night -- the CSN SJ feed.

Fair enough. Bad audio just makes it easier to tune out Jackson's ramblings. For me, at least.

Only thing I miss about Center Ice this year: Randy and Drew from SJ. Possibly the best broadcast pair in the NHL.

I just hope that if there's a ref on the ice that everybody knows will call every little thing, the Flyers can at least try to keep the extra-curriculars to themselves.

With any luck, we'll get some SJ games when Comcast starts showing out of market games from their affiliates as the season winds down like they did last year.

Worked 10.5 years at an Acme. Glad to be out, but it helped get my career started.

No two game winning streaks in the last 6 weeks. Good lord.
A span of 17 games without consecutive wins. How the hell is that even possible?

I'll never forget staying up till close to 1am watching a 0-0 game just to see Ryan Potulny end it with 20 or whatever seconds left. A classic

It's funny I didn't remember the game but now that you said that, I remember that feeling
