LouCifer Posted December 19, 2023 Report Share Posted December 19, 2023 I think Hrudey is fine. Alternating between Hrudey and Millen could be a good thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My issue with Hrudey is that he’s too concerned about feelings to be critical. its part of the job. You can be tough, but fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LouCifer Posted December 19, 2023 Report Share Posted December 19, 2023 Don’t mind Singh either. Hextall… not a fan… Mikkelson’s voice is really tough to listen to for my ears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

medatswhoP Posted December 19, 2023 Report Share Posted December 19, 2023 Fast fact, Hrudey was my neighbor growing up when he played junior hockey for Medicine Hat Tigers, as a punk he was cool back then, he is just stereotype typical goalie mentality. I spotted him at the YMCA doing weights a few times... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got a great voice for soccer, maybe a bit too excited on shots for hockey. He's pretty even calling goals for either team, but seems depressed when the Oilers get scored on.

LOL Ya, the bouch bomb thing has become “his thing”. And sure, his allegiances may shine through from time to time. But, I heard just today that the Punjabi broadcast numbers are absolutely huge and that community has really embraced the game. They’ve become impassioned with hockey, and I’m a “more the merrier” kinda guy so I’m all for the soccer style calls and excitement. Maybe he’ll adopt the word “brilliant” from soccer and well hear nothing but brilliant passing, brilliant shooting, and brilliant rehydrating on the bench hahaha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travel_dude Posted December 19, 2023 Report Share Posted December 19, 2023 Our PP sicks, they look better on 4v4. The PP only took about 35 seconds to score. Late goals are a killer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thebrewcrew Posted December 19, 2023 Report Share Posted December 19, 2023 Stolarz snaps his head back. Goalie interference. Greer takes an obvious high stick. Undetected. The Flames PP is horrible, but still frustrating when the officiating is inconsistent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He does well for a guy that doesn't know all of the rules. It may just be he doesn't follow the refs hands on whistles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

COnsidering the watch the reaction (Mange and Ras calls), they obviously don't like late period calls. For us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travel_dude Posted December 19, 2023 Report Share Posted December 19, 2023 8 giveaways so far in this game for the Flames. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LouCifer Posted December 19, 2023 Report Share Posted December 19, 2023 For a guy whose salary is dominantly based on his previous passing ability and vision, I’m afraid “huberdeau” when translated from French to English means “snake oil”. I wonder if he completes any passes in practice!?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travel_dude Posted December 19, 2023 Report Share Posted December 19, 2023 Please sit Huberdeau for the ENTIRE PP. He's having a rough game, but they don't track individual giveaways by players on NHL site. I suspect I have seen at least 4 by him. It's not his fault so much, nobody seems to be able to anticipate him. Zary probably would get him, but can't mess with Kadri line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a chance that’s his best play as a Flame. He also had a shootout goal against Florida last year, so maybe that’s his best moment. Bar is very low.
