9:36: Game over. 4-0 Whalers!!!! Niedert takes 1st star for the shutout.
9:28: Whalers win back to back fights. Aviators players sent to the lockers as bloody messes.
9:17: Druce knocks the net off to stop another Dimarzo breakaway. Danbury responds with a shortie by Guy. Slapshot off the faceoff. 4-0 Whalers. Big brawl in front of Niedert.
9:13: 10 left. Solid hits this period.
9:00: Start of 3. 20 seconds Danbury PP
8:44: End of 2. Felton declined fights twice now, still harassing Niedert. Real classy.
8:34: Fight won by Danbury, 18v18. NY penalty 20 for tripping
8:27: Lots of back and forth. Felton skated to Niedert for some jawing on media timeout and no call made. Provoked a tripping call against Whalers seconds later
8:09: Danbury 25 pulled off a fight with a NY player. NY given penalty shot on Danbury tripping. Niedert makes the save. Danbury goal 10 seconds later by Siefert shorthanded for a 3-0 lead on Karlov tripping call
8:02:Start of 2. 2-0 Whalers.
7:42: Both teams with a solid PK to end the period. Refs whistled down another play on a free puck in front of the NY net. And this is a different ref staff too. FHL refs are not making a good impression so far...End of 1.
7:28: Dimarzo with a breakaway goal! 2-0 Whalers!
7:21: Whalers goal by 27. Now Whalers PP. 1-0!
6:48pm: No Mike V tonight. Definitely thinking rotator cuff. 20 minutes to go...
6:30pm:Teams taking the ice for warm-ups. Whalers wearing alternate jerseys tonight. Lots of NY players still don't have nameplates. Looks so halfassed it's not even funny. Niedert and Druce are our starting goaltenders again.
6:21pm: Warm up skate starting momentarily. We'll see if they come out to "Welcome to the Jungle" again tonight.
Tried a few minutes ago. Hopefully you can see my posts. How are things--it's 6:08 here and we are an hour behind--game on?
ReplyDeleteexplain Hager's penalty for "throwing equipment" please
ReplyDeleteCan see your comments just fine. Sorry I didn't answer last night. I'm typing all of my live updates from my cell phone, and I don't have the screen space to check the comments section as well. (Write to the Whalers and tell them I need a press seat so I can use my laptop!)
ReplyDeleteHager's penalty for throwing equipment in the 2nd came when an A's defenseman made a few swipes at Niedert after the whistle and Hager rushed to his defense. Hager attempted to start a fight with the player, and was immediately pulled away by the referees. Should've let them go in my opinion. As the referee pulled Hager away, he threw his gloves off in frustration, resulting in a 10 minute misconduct for "throwing equipment".
Hope that answers your question as completely as possible.
