Giant Mexican CHicken reunited for some beach time in Florida - Panthers Preview and Open Thread

Miami! Er, Sunrise! Home of this year's Pro Bowl! Feel the excitement. Zzzzzzz. Alright, everyone to the beach!

Grab your towel and let's get wet - 7:30 PM start in Florida. It's another four-point game. Panthers are just 2 points behind the Habs in the standings, with a game in hand. Both teams coming off Saturday Night shutouts. Habs have won both games against the Panthers so far this year.

Fuck my travel agent, this hotel is only "beach access" - we're quite happy to have found our new friend over at The Rat Trick. Maybe he can put us up when we come to visit.

Hot like a Florida Beach - Jaro had a weekend to die for: 2-0-0, 0.50, .984. Slovakia for the gold! Squid of course, 5 points in his last 2 games, and some hot CHicken action, more goals in his brief Habs stint than in his entire career so far. Gio has a six-game point streak. Some props for Jaro 2.0 too. He's played much better lately. For the Panthers, really only Tomas Vokoun can be considered hot, with numbers to rival Jaro: 1-0-1, 0.48, .987 in his last 2. And he has 6 shutouts already this year.

Cold like a Florida Beach this past holiday season - Metro pointless in 5. But our really cold players, Dagger and PatCHes, are now both chilling in Hamilton. As much as one can "chill" in Hamilton. Half of Florida is cold - they aren't scoring a lot of goals. Dvorak and Reinprecht pointless in 4, McCabe pointless in 6.

Shit! That jellyfish stung me - Mara's upper body injury still not healed, and Big Tits still on the long-term shelf. Has anyone even heard about any sort of progress from him? For the Panthers, leading scorer Nathan Horton just broke his leg and is out 4-6 weeks.

Let's dive right in to tonight's Habs probable forward lines, as previewed at practice yesterday:

GMC
Squid - Pleks - MOEmaN
DarCHe Vader - Mad Max - Ben Maxwell (Mad Max 2.0?)
Urologist - Metro - Little Tits

That's, uh, intriguing. It won't last, I'm sure. No idea who the starting goalie is at this hour, but I would bet the kids' college fund on Jaro.

Post-game beach swimwear - Bikini, modeled by Alessandra Ambrosio. She's alright.

Grab a beverage with an umbrella in it and we'll see you in the comments

    would it be too obscure or outdated to call maxwell "the silver hammer"?

    ReplyDelete
  2. @ too close: Um, both?

    Also, is that Panther doing what I think he's doing back there?

  3. we could call him Agent 86 for the most famous Maxwell ever to grace a TV guide

    If I knew you were coming for the game we'd gladly host you! Just don't bring that jackass coach of yours over!

    I have a bad feeling on this one. Your offence against our goaltender. Could be ugly, but then it's a Jacques Martin coached team vs. a Jacques Martin built team.

    Enjoy the weather!

  8. I vote for Agent 86. Guy Boucher says he's a smart player too, so Agent 86 fits pretty well. Also, it makes me think of Anne Hathaway, and that's nevera abd thing.

    ReplyDelete
  9. Maxwell skates up the ice... He's all alone!... Wait, what's he doing?... He appears to be answering a call on his skate!

    Maybe the spirit of 99 will give him the scoring touch.

  10. (Hadulf here, could never fix my account and i'm too lazy to create a new one - GG, you can read this with the Colonel accent, as usual).

    1. I definitely vote for Agent 86.
    2. I definitely want to be where that panther is.
    3. GG, nice bit on the skate-phone!

    ReplyDelete
  11. I showed that Panther every thing he knows...

    Agent 86 gets my vote for now... Is got 48 hours to show is skills.

    "I vote for Agent 86. Guy Boucher says he's a smart player too, so Agent 86 fits pretty well."

    I didn't see the Get Smart movie but Don Adams' original character was anything but smart. Lots of fodder for GG11, however, so I like Agent 86.

    P.S. Find some pics of Barbara Feldon.

    I love that Ambrosio lady, how can she have so much fun by herself.

    Hamilton Island, uh, ya, that's exactly what that is. Yes. Hamilton, uh, island. Great catch.

  19. bea must have read my mind, that's what I was thinking - Max Smart, to go with Mad Max.

    GG, love the cat claws on Sombrero Girl. @10, you have a dirty mind; thanks for sharing.

  20. Alessandra is getting it "kitty style!" MEOW!

    And, aren't some of these guys just pointless?

  22. I think the agent part is right, but we should go by his number...agent 61

  23. i think instead of discussing a crappy player's crappy nickname maybe talk hockey, this shit is turning into a joke

  26. Agreed, it's not the same. But I do like the Easy Mac. Has anyone tried those crazy flavours though?

  27. Triple cheese is yummy. Tomato should be illegal.

  28. I like the little KD cups, the triple cheese are really good.

  29. @HF29: The alfredo one was pretty horrible. I havn't tried the others.

    ReplyDelete
  30. That microwavable mac & cheese stuff should be banned. If you're so lazy that you need a microwave to make mac & cheese, well uh... you're very lazy. Yeah.

    As for hockey talk, I think the strategy should be to try to score more goals than the other team.

    best kept secret is cooking the orinal stuff in the micro. 3/4 hot water for 9 minutes and no draining. Much easier than the whole gas stove/pot of boiling water for the kids.

    not meaning to be rude but if you can't tell by reading these blogs and posts most of the regulars are pretty die hard fans and spend the days after a loss sulking pretty hard... go have your fun on the tsn boards arguing with maple leafs fans if you don't like it.

    I know exactly what the problem is. You need to go to dashboard and unclick the "gun to your head" box. That'll free up your computer to go anywhere else your teeny weeny heart desires.

  37. You want a clue?
    Try reading some of the past posts here to see what the site is about.
    If you're still confused after that, I'm sorry. For you.
    And if you read other posts and you still don't like it then maybe instead of complaining you could you know, fuck off to some place where the people think like you. Life's too short to piss and moan.
    wv - phophoof, which is pretty silly when you think about it, hardly the sort of word verification we should have to put off with on a sharp-edged, analytical hockey blog such as this. I demand better word verifications dammit!

  39. I'd like to be the first to suggest "KD" as the nickname for Habs prospect Mac Bennett (drafted this past year).

    But hey, why talk about nicknames? The never-ending Halak-Price discussion, which has no bearing on Bob's decisions and inevitably degenerates into name-calling, is obviously a much more productive use of the intertubes.

    WV: "meatlioli". Hmm, I dunno what it is, but it sounds delicious.

  48. @gillis
    I also bought whole wheat KD by accident. The box was tastier.

    ReplyDelete
  49. I really hate KD. Gotta get real macaroni and make your own cheese sauce. While the macaroni's boiling, nuke the sauce in the microwave. Melt 1 tbsp butter, add some corn starch to make a rue. Add a cup of milk and stir. Nuke for a minute. Stir. Repeat until thick. About 3 minutes should do. Add whatever fucking cheese you have around. Could be cheeze whiz, cheddar, parmasan (fresh), or spray cheese if you're in USA. Any or all combinations. Add 1 tbsp or Italian seasoning and add to the macaroni. If desired, add whatever meat or meat by-products you have lying around (hamburger, tuna, hotdogs, bologna). Fuck, now I'm hungry.

    WAAAY better than KD.

  50. I was just thinking about our third line. So we have DarCHe Vader, lord of the evil empire, Mad Max - the Road Warrior (pff - doesn't play like it), and Maxwell Smart, a bumbling spy.

  56. bea. That's kind of funny because I just scarfed down a supper to die for: Peanut Butter and Banana sandwich. And a big glass o' chocollate milk. Livin' the life baby!
    Mrs. LD is at her book club (pff, and she says hockey is a waste of time), and the kids are at a friend's house Mass Effect 2-ing. Just got a call "Dad this is friggin' awesome - we HAVE to get this right away." Such passion....

    Anyway, so I figured this meal just dirties one knife, which I basically cleaned off in my armpit and returned to the knife tray. Quick rinse of the glass and voila. I could dig the single life...for a while at least.

    Anyway, go anon go.

    ReplyDelete
  64. Just joining in here before bowing out for all day meetings. Is it just me, or does it feel like the Habs have already been to Florida 4 times already this year. I feel like they've played the whole SE division every week since October. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

  90. So I'm watching Bob Mackenzie's top 30 mid-season draft eligibles. At #14 he's got some Minnesota high school kid named Bjugsted at 14 (I don't know how to spell it - it's gone off the screen). Anyway, I imagine the Habs will be all over that guy.

  106. Yawn. Fuck.

    @Moey: coincidentally, speaking of little fuckity fucks, I too saw the PS goal, but missed the hook that caused it. The coincidence? I was watching Dreger's top 10 likely to be traded. He wasn't there, but if the Stars look to be out of the playoffs, he figures THE little fuckity fuck may have a good shot at being moved. Dare to dream.

  107. are'nt we back down to 9th yet?

    we'll hover on the EDge and not make it in the end.
    and throw away our draft pick.

  108. bea. I believe that's correct. Atlanta and Florida move up to #7 and 8. Habs/Rags/B's move down to 9,10,11. Isles to 12.
    The good news. The Bruins are in 11th.

    ReplyDelete
  109. edit: Atlanta to 6th, Flyers 7th...whatever.

    ReplyDelete
  110. So we're back to sucking? Ok, I'll just go ahead and adjust expectations accordingly.....

    Ok, recalibrated to a 4-2 loss tomorrow in TB. Perhaps 20 shots if we're lucky. Habs will go into 3rd down 3-1, score early, give us hope, actually play properly for 19 minutes, then give up empty netter in last minute. They might not be consistant in any sense of the word (how can you go from what happened Sat night to this?), but at least they're predictable.

    ReplyDelete
  111. @anon (way up) - I watched the game, and read the comments on FHF, and frankly the debate about the KAOS line etc. was a lot more entertaining than the game. Even maybe the KD recipes.

    I think lines 1 and 2 (CamoPlex Moan and Gino MexiChick) played two good consecutive shifts, but that may have just been a dream. (I'm pretty sure the part where Miranda Kerr was lap dancing Jaro was a dream.)
