00:00:00Alright, alright, alright. Let's get this party started.

00:00:21Alright, why can't I, uh...

00:00:30Okay, there we go.

00:00:44We'll be playing some NHL 2K8s.

00:00:51Let's go ahead and get this party started.

00:01:00How's everyone doing? I hope you're all doing well. I'm doing well, thanks for asking. And we will be playing some NHL 2K8s.

00:01:30Ah, excuse me if you're yawning. This is going to be the franchise mode where we will be playing with the Philadelphia Flyers.

00:01:42Ah, my favorite NHL team, the Seattle Kraken, did not exist at the time this game was released, so I can't play with them.

00:01:55First game is against the Calgary Flames.

00:02:02Calgary Flames.

00:02:17Nubu has the, uh...

00:02:21Puck now.

00:02:23Oh, shoot.

00:02:33I tried getting it, but...

00:02:35Obviously that failed.

00:02:37Get it to heart now.

00:03:00Google has it.

00:03:16First game of the season first.

00:03:17I did technically do a starter franchise mode with the Dallas Stars, but I forgot to save

00:03:25it.

00:03:26I'm unable to continue that one.

00:03:56Oh, dang it.

00:04:03Oh, dang it, we lit whatever his name was.

00:04:11I don't remember his name now.

00:04:18We shot that too late.

00:04:18There we go, Hartnell scored.

00:04:33I do have some Diet Coke with me that I'm going to be drinking throughout the day.

00:04:40Have some Kroger purified drinking water as well.

00:04:47Have some Kroger purified drinking water as well.

00:04:54Have some Dr Pepper Zero Sugar with me.

00:05:02Have some Dr Pepper Zero Sugar with me.

00:05:09And some Gatorade Zero Orange.

00:05:24Have some Kroger purified.

00:05:39Have some Kroger purified.

00:05:55Have some Kroger purified.

00:06:00we could, we did score there with Nubal, but the previous shot I thought we could score.

00:06:11Two to nothing, so Briara and Garnier have, have assists.

00:06:30Not bad stats for the previous season for Salman Garnier, if you ask me, hooking two-minute

00:06:59penalty. That's a Calgary Flames player who got the penalty. So it's a power play for us.

00:07:06Oh, and Garnier is a defender as well.

00:07:13Oh, and Garnier is a defender as well. It's even more impressive.

00:07:20Because, you know, defenders aren't really known for their score.

00:07:27Oh, and Garnier is a defender as well.

00:07:32It's even more impressive.

00:07:39It's even more impressive.

00:07:44Because, you know, defenders aren't really known for their score.

00:07:52Briara, uh, has the goal there.

00:07:55Noble and Hartnell got the assists.

00:07:58It's never who I intend to score as, that usually get the, uh, goal.

00:08:13It's gonna be a frozen puck.

00:08:19Let's see if we can get the shot off here.

00:08:26Nope.

00:08:41Upshell and Humberger.

00:08:47That's the end of the first period, dang it.

00:08:50I felt that we were so close to scoring, as well.

00:09:01Has anyone else had the Dr. Pepper Zero Sugar?

00:09:04Because I really like it.

00:09:19You know, Christmas is next week.

00:09:21I get...

00:09:25Thursday, er, I get Wednesday and Thursday of next week off.

00:09:32And...

00:09:39Oh, yeah, I don't know why I tried to shoot on our own.

00:09:42And I decided to take Friday off, and I was able to actually get it off.

00:09:48So...

00:09:53Otherwise, I would have had to return to work Friday.

00:09:59That's not saved by the goalie.

00:10:01So I, I have Thursday, I have Wednesday through Friday off, plus Saturday and Sunday.

00:10:06I always have Saturday and Sundays off, but...

00:10:09That's not saved by our goalie.

00:10:14Unfortunately, we gave up a goal.

00:10:21No shutout for us.

00:10:24So if you celebrate Christmas, I hope you have a good Christmas next week.

00:10:31I know not everyone celebrates Christmas, so...

00:10:46If you do, I hope you enjoy it.

00:10:48There we go.

00:10:49There we go.

00:10:50Loop will score.

00:10:51First goal of the season.

00:10:52There we go.

00:10:53There we go.

00:10:54There we go.

00:10:55There we go.

00:11:00Uh...

00:11:01There we go.

00:11:02First goal of the season.

00:11:03First goal of the season.

00:11:08There we go.

00:11:11Ah...

00:11:12It's not flight.

00:11:36Kapruzov really did a good job there freezing the puck and preventing us from actually scoring.

00:11:51You know, I'm just, I have some family coming in, spending time with them and watching soccer and basketball, and professional wrestling.

00:12:14Now the professional wrestling show is actually taped this week, so it's good.

00:12:23I always think people should have, you know, the holidays off.

00:12:30I know certain jobs can't really take the holiday off.

00:12:33But if, like, they're working in a job where it's not really essential, then they should have the holidays off.

00:12:49Like, entertainment's, like, being, playing a professional sport's not really considered an essential job.

00:12:58So, as fun as this is to watch soccer and, you know, other sports, athletes should have, like, the holidays off.

00:13:08I can understand why, like, nurses and doctors and those working in, like, public safety, you know, public health, you know, or safety don't have the holidays off, even though they should.

00:13:26I do not envy people that have to work on Christmas or Christmas Day.

00:13:47There's a bad pass on my part.

00:14:01There's a bad pass on my part.

00:14:15I think that's not going to be icing and we're not going to get the puck.

00:14:28Ah shoot, we were off sides.

00:14:314-1.

00:14:36I'm lucky, because I get the holiday off.

00:14:42holiday off so I don't have New Year's Eve off but I I do have New Year's Day

00:14:51I don't know why I thought I had a defender named Kanye

00:15:17a little early, yeah, Lupul has two points, Ghani has one, Carter has two, Hartnell has three,

00:15:35Noble has two, Friere has two, that's about it, yeah I don't know why I thought Ghani was

00:16:00the defender, ah shoot, it's good defense though at the end of the second period,

00:16:18who's going to win that Stanley Cup playoffs in 2026, the 2026 Stanley Cup finals, I wonder who's

00:16:29going to win, I know entering the season Florida had to be the odds on favorite followed by Edmonton

00:16:39just because they made it to, Edmonton made it to the last two finals and Florida won the last two

00:16:48shoot, if I were a defender and I had to pop that close, I'd go ahead and at least try and take the shot

00:17:15it's a nice save, I like that little slow-mo action replay, slow motion

00:17:33ah shoot

00:17:47come on

00:17:56oh and we gave up a goal but that was bad defense on my part, can't really blame the AI computer goalie person

00:18:06oh shoot we gave up the puck there

00:18:18there's a bad pass or bad shot at least, maybe not a bad pass but a bad shot

00:18:30oh shoot we gave up the puck there

00:18:32there's a bad pass or bad shot at least, maybe not a bad pass but a bad shot

00:18:38I've never been skating before

00:19:06I've never been skating before

00:19:10I don't think I have

00:19:21that has to be a hit of the game

00:19:27oh that sucks, he looks injured

00:19:34I need to pass that out

00:19:46so Lupul injured his finger unfortunately for us

00:19:53anyone that watched the Flyers this year this game takes place, how did they do that year?

00:20:03wasn't really into hockey when this game came out

00:20:10let me check out the year this game came out because I think it came out in 2008, I don't remember who won

00:20:28that year

00:20:35dang it I was about to shoot and we actually got the puck away

00:20:49I was actually in a good position to shoot

00:21:06someone there on the Flames Ranger I think

00:21:08I think

00:21:09I think

00:21:10nevermind

00:21:21go to Upshall

00:21:23why did I do that?

00:21:42why did I do that?

00:21:44why did I do that?

00:21:45why did I do that?

00:21:46I don't know

00:21:47make a note or something really quick

00:21:49they have 24 shots on go, which is more than the Flames

00:22:03I want to at least get one good shot off before the end of the third.

00:22:21It's not going to happen now, but it looks like we're going to win, so the puck is frozen.

00:22:40We're at 4-2 with 16.1 seconds left in the third, so it's safe to say we're going to win.

00:22:51We are undefeated so far.

00:23:13Mike Noble was the third star of the game.

00:23:20Let's go ahead and exit.

00:23:27Let's go ahead and exit.

00:23:35Let's go ahead and play against the Edmonton Oilers.

00:23:50It's going to be our first away game.

00:23:54It's third in the East so far.

00:24:09I've never been to Edmonton or Philadelphia.

00:24:12I have to go a little.

00:24:19I've never been to Canada, period.

00:24:24Actually.

00:24:25It's a Rexo place.

00:24:28There we go.

00:24:41There we go.

00:24:56Dang it.

00:24:57Rawlson really defended well there.

00:25:11Let's see something.

00:25:23Let's.

00:25:26Let's.

00:25:27Let's see something.

00:25:30Let's.

00:25:32Let's see a little.

00:25:37Let's.

00:25:41Let's see something.

00:25:48Let's see.

00:25:49Just because I know Liverpool had a dislocated hand, I don't really want him getting injured

00:26:05again, at least for this game, so we're going to have him sit on the bench as we score with

00:26:10the defender there.

00:26:20Only Brieri had an assist on that one.

00:26:32So Liverpool can play next game, I think.

00:26:43Oh, shoot, we tried scoring there but we couldn't.

00:26:58Garthier has the puck, now Hartnell, now Stoll, who plays for Edmonton.

00:27:09There we go, Brieron has the puck, now Carter, it's probably going to be icing.

00:27:25Fortunately, it's icing.

00:27:32It's a nice save by Rolison, keep the clock running though by getting away from me.

00:27:59Goalie.

00:28:00Carter scored there, so Hartnell and Kapanen have the assist on that one.

00:28:06So Stoll needs five goals for his 50th.

00:28:14That's Jeff's first goal of the year.

00:28:26Not that I'm complaining.

00:28:47Offside by Edmonton.

00:28:48Those are Gagne's stats last season, or the season before this game came out.

00:28:54Not actually last season in real life.

00:29:01Let's try and get the puck again so he can score.

00:29:17I don't want to stop scoring.

00:29:24I don't know about anyone else, but...

00:29:39I definitely don't want to stop scoring.

00:29:42I'm a little sleepy today.

00:29:45Woke up a little over an hour before I attended tonight.

00:29:50I couldn't go back to sleep, so...

00:29:52Come on, let's get the puck.

00:30:10Dang it.

00:30:15Come on, Gagne has passed to Briere.

00:30:37Of course, it was right to Rolison.

00:30:45We knocked the puck away, and it was able to go to our goalie pretty easily.

00:30:50That's going to be excellent.

00:30:55Come on.

00:31:08Come on.

00:31:09I want the puck.

00:31:14I don't think there's something to talk about.

00:31:20It's work's been going pretty okay.

00:31:24It's been boring at times.

00:31:29Frustrating at others.

00:31:37Fun.

00:31:38It's fun at times, so...

00:31:43It's the end of the first period.

00:31:49It's 2-0 so far.

00:32:02It's 2-0 so far.

00:32:12Like, if I'd have seen an NHL game in Canada, it'd probably be either in Toronto or Edmonton.

00:32:27What am I going to, like, Winnipeg as well?

00:32:32I'm going to lose this fight.

00:32:45I'm going to lose this fight.

00:32:46I'm going to lose this fight.

00:32:52I'm going to lose this fight.

00:33:01I'm going to lose this fight.

00:33:04So they each get a couple minutes, about 5 minutes for fighting.

00:33:32Got a lot of hockey fights, those are pretty fun to watch in my opinion.

00:33:51Here we go, we got Hartnodal Puck.

00:33:56It's a bad shot by Kapanen.

00:33:58Could have gotten in better, a better shot off.

00:34:18I thought they were going to come with me, that's why I passed with Carter.

00:34:25Come on, so far so good though, I can't complain about the score though.

00:34:32It's a nice powerful shot, but unfortunately it was right to the goalie, it wasn't to where

00:34:39I wanted it to be.

00:34:46Come on.

00:34:53Come on.

00:34:54Come on.

00:35:00Come on.

00:35:26I got it to Carter.

00:35:35Rolison has the puck.

00:35:37Now it's a Tarnstrom.

00:35:44Floris Styles.

00:35:49There we go, we got it with Carter.

00:35:59His second of the game.

00:36:02So yeah, for those of you that celebrate Christmas, what are you going to do for Christmas next

00:36:11week?

00:36:12For me it's just give gifts and eat good food.

00:36:17Maybe spend time with my family, or definitely spend time with my family as well.

00:36:26Something other than gift giving and eating for a good breakfast and dinner.

00:36:30I don't think we have anything planned for the day.

00:36:36Let's check to see who has the, so Carter has both goals.

00:36:51Hartnell has an assist.

00:36:55Smith does not cap an in.

00:37:02Oh, and Kimo, Timon has an assist and a goal.

00:37:07Friari has an assist.

00:37:12I'm going to remind myself to check the, uh,

00:37:17stats, the team stats after this game, for each player.

00:37:34Dang it, we couldn't scroll there.

00:37:50Pretty cool to see us in the lead.

00:38:01Dang it.

00:38:03It's a good defense though.

00:38:06Terrible offense on my end.

00:38:12Although Edmonton's playing terrible, uh, has worse offense just because they haven't

00:38:17scored.

00:38:25I'm going to turn off my mic in my face cam.

00:38:27I'm getting a little too sleepy to talk.

00:38:33So you've got to hear from you.

00:38:36Pennor handles it.

00:38:40Kemski handles it.

00:38:41Back to the point.

00:38:42Here's Pennor.

00:38:43No luck with that shot.

00:38:44Too far to the right.

00:38:45The puck is hit off the left side.

00:38:47Now, Canoogle off the post.

00:38:50the left side. Now Canoogle off the post. These guys just about had a chance to bury their

00:38:57opponent. That would have been a four-wheel lead, but it hit the post. And now we turn

00:39:02to the Dodge intermission report as we get set for period three coming up. The Flyers

00:39:07are continuing their great play tonight, Harry. It's been a pretty one-sided match. They've

00:39:12got the big lead here, continuing to control the game as we start the third period. Where

00:39:17have they excelled, do you think, in your mind? They are doing a great job out there, clearing

00:39:20out the front of the net. And it's one of the main reasons they have a big lead right now.

00:39:47The Flyers coming out now for this third period. And Harry, these guys look to be in great control.

00:39:54Hard to imagine them slipping up. Center right.

00:40:00The Flyers coming out now for this third period. And Harry, these guys look to be in great control.

00:40:07Hard to imagine them slipping up. Center right. Now Hemsky. And in the neutral zone. And they go offside.

00:40:21The Flyers have attempted 19 total shots on goal. And Horkov gets set to take the draw.

00:40:28The Oilers have possession. In the hole. Down by three at home. Taken away by Kimo Timonen. And the attempt by Penner. Turned back.

00:40:42I don't think he could have gotten there if he hadn't done the splits. He made the save with a stick.

00:40:46He made the save with a stick. The Oilers were able to get it back.

00:40:50Save made on that shot by Alec Hemsky. Here's Garnier. Philadelphia moving up. Here's Breer.

00:40:57And now Edmonton in their own zone. Hemsky. And now the Oilers will get back onside.

00:41:04It's shot. Shoots wide wide on the shot. Hemsky takes the check.

00:41:16Edmonton picks it up. Philadelphia dominating here tonight.

00:41:27In the slot. Rolison with the glove save.

00:41:35The Little Deke.

00:41:38Hemsky. Oh and here's Edmonton.

00:41:41Veroen denies the wrister with a great glove save. Horkov.

00:41:47Veroen makes an incredible stop.

00:41:49Taking the shot to his body while being in his splits.

00:41:52He's in the slot.

00:41:54Oh and Rolison stops the shot.

00:41:57Going top corner right.

00:41:59Philadelphia regains possession.

00:42:04Karnstrom takes it back.

00:42:06The Edmonton Oilers have little hope of a comeback. I'm afraid at this point.

00:42:09It's controlled by Hemsky.

00:42:12And Pitkin in now.

00:42:13Pitkin in check.

00:42:15Here's Breer.

00:42:16He feeds it up the left side.

00:42:18Garnier.

00:42:20And Breer gets checked.

00:42:23And the Philadelphia Flyers coaching staff happy with this performance.

00:42:27And he scores to put them up four here in the third period.

00:42:32That one looks like it'll just be icing on the cake as they coast to the W.

00:42:40And it goes off the goaltender and ends up in the net for a goal.

00:42:43I know this happens from time to time Harry but that fact certainly can't help the goalie now.

00:42:48Definitely not.

00:42:49Bob in fact looking at this replay you can actually see the look of horror when he realizes that the puck hit him and still went in.

00:42:55There's a little period of time between that little top of the puck.

00:42:59Barrow again stops the shot.

00:43:01Here's Jarrett Stoll.

00:43:03To the middle.

00:43:05Here's Green.

00:43:06And Green takes the hit.

00:43:07Kapanen now.

00:43:09Cardinal now.

00:43:10And the Oilers take it away.

00:43:14And the Oilers coming in.

00:43:16Ties that move.

00:43:17Shot wide to the left of that one.

00:43:20Some words coming from the Edmonton coaching staff.

00:43:23I'm positive.

00:43:24Tough loss.

00:43:25Just about imminent here.

00:43:27Now that a slap speed.

00:43:29Now Edmonton into the zone.

00:43:31The Flyers looking to complete what has been an outstanding game.

00:43:34Boy they've really been strong in this one.

00:43:36Really executing their offense and getting some fantastic shots on net.

00:43:41And their defense has been solid as well.

00:43:43They can already see the light at the end of the tunnel.

00:43:46And it's not a train.

00:43:48Flyers.

00:43:48His shot wide left on that one.

00:43:51Feral.

00:43:52Makes a nice pad save.

00:43:54Here's Jarrett Stoll.

00:43:56And it's stuck again.

00:43:59And Jeff Carter with it.

00:44:01Philadelphia going in.

00:44:06Are J.M. Berger ready now for the faceoff?

00:44:14And the Oilers searching for their first goal.

00:44:19Out front.

00:44:20Count that one as a great save.

00:44:22As it ricochets away off the goalie.

00:44:25Center ice.

00:44:26Do these checks ever hurt?

00:44:27It's like getting hit with a giant bowling ball.

00:44:31And now the Oilers win it in their own zone.

00:44:33Fasani.

00:44:37Oh and there they go.

00:44:38The Oilers on a rush.

00:44:41The shot.

00:44:42Down low.

00:44:45Turned over by Philadelphia.

00:44:47Now Philadelphia's got it.

00:44:49It's sent up the left side.

00:44:51Philadelphia forcing the play.

00:44:52He scores.

00:44:56They're now up five.

00:44:58And this crowd has gone silent.

00:45:00They don't seem to know how to respond to a situation like this.

00:45:09Terrific goal here Bob.

00:45:10The goalie tried to save it with his skate.

00:45:13But it bounced off his blade into the net.

00:45:14Taking a closer look at this.

00:45:16The goalie's skates were just at the wrong angle.

00:45:19And as a goalie you have to be aware of all parts of your body and pads.

00:45:23Because a bad angle of any part of you can result in something bad like a rebound or even worse a goal.

00:45:29And sometimes you just don't have time to adjust.

00:45:33Tough goal to give up there.

00:45:36Throws him.

00:45:36He scores.

00:45:41They now trail by four goals.

00:45:43With time winding down in the hole.

00:45:46Not a lot of excitement associated with that goal.

00:45:49Unless you're the tooth perry.

00:45:51Here we go on the replay.

00:45:52A nice job to get the shot off.

00:45:54He was right close to the goaltender.

00:45:56Shooter's land.

00:45:57I guess in this case he really manufactured the opportunity and made it work.

00:46:02And he manufactured a nice goal.

00:46:03Hullo grabs the puck on the faceoff.

00:46:08He gets that save made.

00:46:10In deep.

00:46:11I don't think he could have gotten there if he hadn't done the splits.

00:46:14He made the save with a stick.

00:46:16Taken into the zone by Philadelphia.

00:46:18In the middle.

00:46:19It's tipped towards the net but he makes that stop.

00:46:22Stick saved.

00:46:23And he had to be so quick.

00:46:25That puck changed directions going through traffic.

00:46:28They're alone.

00:46:28Able to kick the puck.

00:46:30We're left with a minute 59.

00:46:31Nilsson has the puck through the zone.

00:46:36Down under two minutes now.

00:46:38It's loose.

00:46:39Oh my.

00:46:40He delivers a huge check.

00:46:43That hit is our Dodge Nitro hit of the game.

00:46:46Timonen called for interference.

00:46:49Let's check the replay and see if he was called for interference.

00:46:52Oh yeah.

00:46:52You can see that he was trying to get away with something there.

00:46:55Well he's away all right.

00:46:56He's away across the rink in the penalty box.

00:46:58And the Oilers win it.

00:47:00Here's Sheldon Soi.

00:47:01Hard body check.

00:47:03To the point.

00:47:05Here's Sean Horkov.

00:47:06Horkov.

00:47:09Horkov handles it.

00:47:10And now the Flyers with it.

00:47:14Gauthier.

00:47:15And Sammy Kapanen with it.

00:47:18And this game is over with a final score.

00:47:20Five to one.

00:47:25And now brought to you by Dodge.

00:47:27It's our post game report.

00:47:29Dodge.

00:47:30Grab life.

00:47:31The Flyers sent a serious message home tonight.

00:47:35Talk about domination.

00:47:36This game was a pure example.

00:47:38Harry.

00:47:38When you take into account the stats.

00:47:40And overall performance.

00:47:42What were the points that really stuck out in your mind?

00:47:45Oh Bob.

00:47:45We talk about the use of the body.

00:47:47And these guys used it well.

00:47:48And they used it often.

00:47:49I mean I think the other guys just wore down.

00:47:52And that's why the scoreboard had been winning big.

00:47:54And that's going to do it.

00:48:07NHL action on the 2K Sports Network.

00:48:10For Harry Neal.

00:48:11I'm Bob Cole.

00:48:12Thanks for tuning in.

00:48:14I hope you'll catch us next time around on the NHL.

00:48:24Let's go.

00:48:54Let's go.

00:49:24Let's go.

00:49:54Welcome to NHL action on the 2K Sports Network.

00:49:58I'm Bob Cole along with my partner Harry Neal.

00:50:01It's still early on in the season.

00:50:03And these two teams are still getting adjusted from the preseason.

00:50:08With Philadelphia's streaky postseason play,

00:50:11this season could turn into a soap opera.

00:50:14The Flyers need to keep the drama to a minimum

00:50:16if they're going to figure out how to make it back into the finals.

00:50:20They're lined up and ready for the faceoff.

00:50:24Just getting started here in Vancouver.

00:50:26Canuck fans excited for this one.

00:50:28And Timon now.

00:50:30And Timon now.

00:50:31And Simon Gagne with it.

00:50:32You got to like the way this guy plays.

00:50:34He just lines up his opponent and wops him.

00:50:37The save is made.

00:50:38The save is made.

00:50:38It bounces off the goalie.

00:50:41Re-air.

00:50:43In the corner, Gagne.

00:50:45Here's Breer.

00:50:47Luongo stops another shot.

00:50:50In the corner, Canubra's got it.

00:50:52Out front.

00:50:53It's batted out of play over the glass.

00:50:56It looks like someone's going home with a soup.

00:50:58And we are just about ready to resume play here.

00:51:04Vancouver looking for their first goal.

00:51:07Hyatt takes the hook.

00:51:08Hook check.

00:51:10He did not want the high-impact hit.

00:51:12He just wanted to eliminate his opponent.

00:51:15Intercepted.

00:51:17Carter now.

00:51:18He's a good stick handler.

00:51:20And the Flyers coming in.

00:51:21Turned over by Vancouver.

00:51:27Taken away by Vancouver.

00:51:28Man, a hard hit.

00:51:30He made him pay the price on that one.

00:51:32Centered right out in front.

00:51:35Around back.

00:51:36Stolen by Philadelphia.

00:51:38Here's Hatcher.

00:51:41Cardinal now.

00:51:44And Jeff Carter with it.

00:51:48Now Vancouver's got it.

00:51:50And Mitchell now.

00:51:51Cedin.

00:51:55Cedin's check.

00:51:57Philadelphia loses it.

00:51:59He gets drilled by Hatcher.

00:52:01The whistle blows for offside.

00:52:03Sammy Salo has one of the hardest shots in the league.

00:52:06And he's not afraid to unleash it.

00:52:08Combine that with the ability to read the ice well.

00:52:10And to know when to jump into the play.

00:52:12You've got an excellent offensive defenseman right here with Salo.

00:52:18Canugle handles it.

00:52:19Re-air with a steal.

00:52:20And the pass.

00:52:22Take it away.

00:52:23He shoots.

00:52:24He gets it.

00:52:29Philadelphia looking to get on the scoreboard.

00:52:32Fire.

00:52:33Down low.

00:52:33Garnier.

00:52:35Garnier.

00:52:36The long goal with a glove save.

00:52:39I like that wrist shot selection.

00:52:40It's hard to pick up coming off the stick.

00:52:42This goalie made a good glove save in.

00:52:44Canugle.

00:52:45There's a good body check.

00:52:49A linesman blows the whistle for offside.

00:52:53Naslund.

00:52:53And Morrison settles in to take the draw.

00:52:59And the Canucks bring it up.

00:53:00It's an incredible stop.

00:53:11Taking the shot to his body while being in a splits.

00:53:14Beron stops that shot.

00:53:16Heading for the low.

00:53:17Right side.

00:53:19Garnier.

00:53:21And Luongo stops it.

00:53:23He was ready with a stick.

00:53:24The pass missed.

00:53:26Now Naslund.

00:53:27Naslund gets checked.

00:53:29You have to like this hit.

00:53:30Taking him in the neutral zone before he can gain your blue line.

00:53:34Snaps it off.

00:53:35Knocked out by Roberto Luongo.

00:53:37And Kevin Bieksa with it.

00:53:40Oh, incredible puck handling.

00:53:43Canucks coming in.

00:53:45The bullseye was squarely on his chest.

00:53:47And did he make him pay in the neutral zone with that shoulder hit?

00:53:51Save is made on the shot by Daniel Breyer.

00:53:56Now Cook.

00:53:58Vancouver back into the zone.

00:54:00The Canucks feel it.

00:54:02Oh, and Beron with a split save.

00:54:04In the splits position.

00:54:06He pulls off the stick save.

00:54:08Turnover.

00:54:09Vancouver.

00:54:10Gauthier's got it.

00:54:12Breyer's got it.

00:54:14And here's Mike Canubo.

00:54:16Canubo.

00:54:18Oh, another player.

00:54:19Vancouver has an opportunity now.

00:54:22Creating space.

00:54:23Nice stick handling.

00:54:25Save.

00:54:25With the glove.

00:54:30And Marta Geron will just hold on to that one.

00:54:34Boy, the glove got there just in time.

00:54:36He deflected the puck with terrific use of that glove hand.

00:54:39That's one way to use the glove.

00:54:40If he can't snare the puck inside the glove, he can always use that piece of leather as a

00:54:45way to knock the puck out.

00:54:46As long as you don't leave a juicy rebound.

00:54:49And Beron got a piece of that.

00:54:51And Sedin's shot is turned back.

00:54:57And now we've got our copper stopper repair.

00:55:00Brought to you by Urusel.

00:55:02It was a great save, Eric.

00:55:04And here's a close-in shot, Bob.

00:55:06But it's denied by the goaltender.

00:55:08Yes, a tight shot like this keeps everybody on their toes.

00:55:11The goalie, most of all.

00:55:12Right, Coley.

00:55:13But the goalie had this one the whole time.

00:55:16Getting a lot of wood on that shot.

00:55:18Mitchell is checked.

00:55:22The puck's loose.

00:55:26Hancher's got it.

00:55:29And Sammy Kapanen with it.

00:55:32Kapanen.

00:55:36At center.

00:55:38Now Van Coover.

00:55:41He scores!

00:55:43Jams it into the net.

00:55:45And they jump out on top here.

00:55:471-0 in the first period.

00:55:50That was a great example of seeing an opportunity and taking the open shot.

00:55:54Good timing, Harry.

00:55:55There wasn't a lot the goalie could do.

00:55:57Too much space means too much time to shoot.

00:56:00And with a defensive collapse, you can only hope that a defender can get in the way of the shot.

00:56:05It didn't happen on this play.

00:56:06Great offensive play, Harry, to get the goal and take advantage of the space.

00:56:10Pass the blue line.

00:56:12Philadelphia forcing the flag.

00:56:14Here's Carter.

00:56:16Cartnell.

00:56:17Oh, blocked again.

00:56:20Quiet.

00:56:21Now Henrik Sedin.

00:56:22Two minutes left in the period.

00:56:25Now the Canucks get it back.

00:56:27Fired!

00:56:28The shot by Sedin.

00:56:29Save.

00:56:30And the Flyers searching for their first goal.

00:56:40Crycheck now.

00:56:44Sedin's check.

00:56:45Here's Quiet.

00:56:47Here's Quiet.

00:56:48And Scott Hartnell with it.

00:56:51And the buzzer sounds and the score at the end of the first period is one to nothing.

00:57:01First period over.

00:57:03Now moving on to period two with the Dodge intermission report.

00:57:07Dodge.

00:57:08Grab life.

00:57:09The Canucks were tied up during the first period for a bit.

00:57:12And now will come out to start the second with a one-goal advantage.

00:57:15Harry, what do you see out there on the ice tonight?

00:57:17Bob, I like the way they've come out offensively here tonight.

00:57:20And I think it's reflected in the lead they've earned.

00:57:22They're doing a better job creating scoring opportunities.

00:57:26And if they can continue what they've done well so far, they have the recipe for a victory.

00:57:34And Sammy Kapanen with it.

00:57:36Center ice.

00:57:37Sedin uses the poke check.

00:57:40To the point.

00:57:42Hatcher disrupts the play, picking off that centering pass.

00:57:47And Scott Hartnell with it.

00:57:49Levondo reached out and grabbed it.

00:57:51Here's Oland.

00:57:53Here's Platt.

00:57:56Here's Cedric.

00:57:58Hatcher draws a great save as it ricochets away off the goalie.

00:58:02Biron makes the stop, keeping the deficit at just one.

00:58:10The slot.

00:58:12Hatcher's got it.

00:58:14He scores!

00:58:16And early here in the second, they have come back to tie the game.

00:58:22The Flyers have got themselves back to an even-steven hockey game here in the second with that last goal.

00:58:37The face-off won by the Flyers.

00:58:42Penuble.

00:58:43And center ice.

00:58:45Picked up by Vancouver.

00:58:48Garnier.

00:58:49Save.

00:58:50The long goal comes up with it.

00:58:52Mitchell.

00:58:56Shot.

00:58:57The defense stops the shot attempt.

00:59:01Vancouver regains possession.

00:59:03Colche takes the check.

00:59:04Garnier.

00:59:05And Mitchell now.

00:59:11And here's Mitchell.

00:59:12Now Naslin.

00:59:15Vancouver has an opportunity now.

00:59:18And Philadelphia has the play.

00:59:20Taken away by Vancouver.

00:59:21Well.

00:59:22By Martin Biron.

00:59:25We've got a tie game here in Vancouver.

00:59:28The move.

00:59:29He scores!

00:59:30A second period go-ahead goal.

00:59:32That's what you like to get.

00:59:34And it goes off the goaltender and ends up in the net for a goal.

00:59:46I know this happens from time to time, Harry.

00:59:48But that fact certainly can't help the goalie now.

00:59:51Definitely not.

00:59:52Bob, in fact, looking at this replay, you can actually see the look of horror when he realizes that the puck hit him and still went in.

00:59:58There's a little period of time between that little top of the puck and the signal for a goal.

01:00:03And that period of time feels like forever to the goalie.

01:00:05And I'm sure it's accompanied by a sinking feeling in the pit of your stomach as well.

01:00:10Now Ryan Kesley.

01:00:12Across the blue line.

01:00:13To the point.

01:00:14Lexa.

01:00:17Olin now.

01:00:18And Jeff Cowan with it.

01:00:20Linden.

01:00:22He shoots.

01:00:24Birol makes the save.

01:00:26He sure doesn't want to give off this one-goal lead.

01:00:29And Jeff Carter with it.

01:00:30Turned over by Philadelphia.

01:00:32Callum now.

01:00:35It's center ice.

01:00:38And he shoots.

01:00:39Misses too far left of the net.

01:00:41And Sammy Kapanen with it.

01:00:45And Scott Hartnell with it.

01:00:47Always dangerous.

01:00:48Canucks.

01:00:49Here we go.

01:00:50And Trevor Linden with it.

01:00:52Now the Flyers get it back.

01:00:54Keenan gets hit.

01:00:55And the Flyers right back in.

01:00:57Carter.

01:00:58Hits his own player.

01:01:06Backhanded.

01:01:07Now Ryan Kesley.

01:01:08And now Philadelphia in their own zone.

01:01:11And Jeff Carter with it.

01:01:14Callum now.

01:01:16And here's Kesley.

01:01:17And Hatcher nails him.

01:01:22One goal lead for Philadelphia.

01:01:26Here's Carter.

01:01:26And a shot.

01:01:30Off the blocker of Louongo.

01:01:32And Jeff Collin with it.

01:01:34Vancouver has an opportunity now.

01:01:38He sends it back.

01:01:40Centered.

01:01:42It stops.

01:01:42A shot.

01:01:43It fights off the goalie.

01:01:45Hartnell now.

01:01:46And pull it up here.

01:01:47Over the line.

01:01:48Louongo with the blocker save.

01:01:50And here's Mitchell.

01:01:52Mitchell is checked.

01:01:55Dunked in by Vancouver.

01:01:57Naslund in now.

01:01:59His team changing shifts for their forwards.

01:02:03Now Vancouver's got it.

01:02:04Flyers bringing out two new defensemen.

01:02:08And here's Mitchell.

01:02:12Here's Marcus Naslund.

01:02:14Shoots just shy of the left goalpost.

01:02:16And now the Flyers with it.

01:02:18Stolen by Philadelphia.

01:02:20Naslund.

01:02:21Now Cook along the boards.

01:02:23Cook gets drilled in the corner.

01:02:26Naslund gets pinned against the boards.

01:02:29The Canucks turn it over.

01:02:30Roche takes the check.

01:02:32What a hit.

01:02:33Do you know what this feels like?

01:02:35And here's Mike Canubo.

01:02:38Canubo.

01:02:39Saved by Roberto Luongo.

01:02:44Salo's got it.

01:02:46Philadelphia is able to grab it.

01:02:48Flyers.

01:02:49That hit the goalpost.

01:02:52The Flyers steal it.

01:02:54Just 10 minutes 57 now.

01:02:57Cook handles it.

01:02:58Morrison.

01:03:01Centered.

01:03:02Biro with a beautiful save.

01:03:05Now Canubo.

01:03:08Canubo.

01:03:09The shot's blocked.

01:03:11And now the Flyers grab it.

01:03:14Here's Gauthier.

01:03:16Right here.

01:03:17Vancouver loses it.

01:03:18And Brieger gets checked.

01:03:20The Canucks are making a move.

01:03:22Shot wide to the left to Marron.

01:03:26And the buzzer sounds for the end of the second period.

01:03:29With a score.

01:03:30Two to one.

01:03:31And now we turn to the Dodge intermission report.

01:03:34As we get set for period three coming up.

01:03:37The Canucks continue to trail in this game here Harry.

01:03:40And they're behind a goal to start the third period.

01:03:43Harry.

01:03:43Why do you think they're playing catch up right now?

01:03:46Being down by one.

01:03:47The first reason that comes to mind.

01:03:49Is that they have not been physical enough out there Bob.

01:03:52They need to be more aggressive in front of the net.

01:03:54If they want to stay in this game.

01:03:56Here's Gauthier.

01:04:09And the Canucks get it for the icing card.

01:04:12Veyron in net ready to protect that right side of the net on the faceoff.

01:04:17And the Canucks win it.

01:04:18Here's Bieksa.

01:04:19He's covered.

01:04:54Vancouver needs to get set up again.

01:04:57To the point.

01:04:58To the point.

01:06:31Mitchell is checked.

01:06:32He scores.

01:06:33And the game is now tied.

01:06:35Oh my.

01:06:36What a game this has been.

01:06:37They really overpowered that final line of defense on this goal, Bob.

01:06:49You can see the rush developing on the replay, Harry.

01:06:52Exciting.

01:06:53The goalie dropped into the butterfly, but couldn't quite take away enough of the net.

01:06:56The Canucks are making tonight's game an exciting game to watch.

01:07:12You talk about a big goal.

01:07:13You come into the third period down.

01:07:16Now they've got this thing going their way as they've tied it up.

01:07:19The puck is hit off the left side.

01:07:28Philadelphia moving up.

01:07:30The long goal.

01:07:31Stats it.

01:07:31Well.

01:07:32Well, the blocker from the split position.

01:07:35Here's Bieksa.

01:07:39Intercepted.

01:07:40Now Vancouver with it again.

01:07:42Here's Sedin.

01:07:44And here's Sedin.

01:07:46He gets drilled by Hartnell.

01:07:48He centers it.

01:07:49Boy, you tell me that this didn't shake him up.

01:07:52He hit him so hard, he knocked him down.

01:07:54Quiet.

01:07:55Back to the point.

01:07:57Bieksa now.

01:07:58Here come the Flyers with a chance.

01:08:02And the Canucks pick it up.

01:08:03Sedin's got it.

01:08:05He gets tucked.

01:08:07He's a bruiser.

01:08:08And you don't want to meet up with him in the open ice.

01:08:14And it'll be icing as the Canucks touch up.

01:08:17Oland is narrowing in on a new career milestone for assists.

01:08:22Just one more for him and he's there, Bob.

01:08:24He sure knows how to get the puck tape to tape.

01:08:27And here's Vancouver off the goal.

01:08:31Philadelphia forcing the play.

01:08:34Kapanen.

01:08:36Kapanen.

01:08:55Great save.

01:08:55Bob, the shot going low.

01:08:57Here's Kapanen.

01:08:59And Jeff Carter with it.

01:09:03Carter's hit.

01:09:04And now the Canucks with it in their own zone.

01:09:07Kapanen now.

01:09:07And Kessler now.

01:09:13Taken away by Philadelphia.

01:09:15Philadelphia going in.

01:09:17Now Miller with it.

01:09:20Bob, I'll tell you this from experience.

01:09:22If your butt is dragging on the bench, this is music to your ear.

01:09:26Listen to that chant from the home team in a game that's tied up.

01:09:29And a lot of times.

01:09:31Great save.

01:09:33Oh, and this Vancouver crowd was just about ready to explode.

01:09:37A minute 56 remaining.

01:09:40And Kown is hit.

01:09:41Vancouver trying to get set up once more.

01:09:44Carter's hit.

01:09:51It goes off his own name.

01:09:53Linden now.

01:10:00Kessler.

01:10:01In the attack to a one.

01:10:04He gets it.

01:10:05And Martav Biron will just hold on to that one.

01:10:09And Sedin is at the face-off circle.

01:10:14The horn sounds to win the third period.

01:10:17Both teams are headed for the locker rooms as they get set to battle the old team.

01:10:21And Morrison grabs the puck on the face-off.

01:10:25Here's Piazza.

01:10:28Canucks can't hang on to it.

01:10:31Canoble, huh?

01:10:35Canoble.

01:10:37Off the post.

01:10:39And Brendan Morrison with it.

01:10:46Naslund handles it.

01:10:48And Vancouver brings it back in.

01:10:52Taken away by Vancouver.

01:10:53And Philadelphia turns it over.

01:10:55And now the Flyers with it.

01:10:58The next goal wins the game, folks.

01:11:01The Flyers fans want this victory.

01:11:04You can hear them.

01:11:05Two minutes left in the period.

01:11:07Lexa uses a quick poke check to disrupt the play.

01:11:10Lexa shoots it, but way left on that one.

01:11:18Gagne now.

01:11:19Here we go with Philadelphia.

01:11:23The exit now.

01:11:25Now Vancouver.

01:11:27Here's Morrison.

01:11:30To the middle.

01:11:31Olin.

01:11:33Biron doing what he can to keep the game in the top.

01:11:36We're headed to a shootout to decide this one.

01:11:40And Philadelphia up first in the shootout.

01:11:43Now he's skating in.

01:11:47He makes the stop.

01:11:49No luck there.

01:11:50And it's 0-0.

01:11:51Sadeen up next for Vancouver.

01:12:00All right now.

01:12:01Here it is.

01:12:03That's off the post.

01:12:06Both teams struggling to get on the board.

01:12:09The goalies are shutting them out.

01:12:16Brie here.

01:12:17Up second now.

01:12:59Kapanen up to shoot third.

01:13:01And now, everybody, it's come down to this.

01:13:06It's stopped.

01:13:07The goaltender focused on the shot.

01:13:10The Canucks take the win with a shootout victory.

01:13:13Well, Harry, we were witness to an exciting finish for quite a game.

01:13:17And that's going to do it.

01:13:25National Hockey League action on the 2K Sports Network.
