What is a Utah Mammoth?

[Mickstix]

Used to be a Phoenix Coyote
 
MUST WIN  No Excuses..

Protas out, personal reasons, Lapierre in.

that ONhockey stream is a friggin PAIN IN THE ASS.  Like 25 tries to get it to go and then it's not a home stream

[Mickstix]

Gotta make sure you click the home stream
 It is a PIA though. 


So far we look like ass
 

[richkrt99]

I did click the home stream.....37 tries later I have Joe screaming FIRES AND SCORES!  (for the wrong squad)

P U

[Mickstix]

This some bull    The fucking Coyotes look like Cup contender vs us. 


And why is Bouvi always on line 1? You want Leonard to score a goal, play him with Ovi and Strome. Least give the kid a chance.

PP time

[richkrt99]

Caps need one back this period...kinda hard to do with only 3 shots in the period

[ArJunaZ]

PP GOOOAAALLLL

DUBOIS

[richkrt99]

[alta]

Caps down 2-1 after one

[Mickstix]

Doubi!! Joe said there was a second left in the PPK? lol Though there wasn't much momentum to kill this time anyway.
