Inducted.

[IslesRock4]

I also liked the "Matt Moulson usually likes to shoot the puck" but I don't think that's good enough to be inducted.

If anyone DVR'd the game, would love to know what Butch said after the Martin-Bickell scrap. Sure sounded like, "fart [fight] right away", but I may have heard wrong.

[IsleNmetFan4Life]

Not really an epic butch-ism but I'm positive he called artem anisimov "anisinov" the entire game

[BobbyNystromOwnsYou*]

He called John Tortarella John Tavares.

And "hitters should hit, playmakers should pass"... I tell ya, Butch sure knows his stuff.

[JTforPres2012]

I don't know if anyone ever notices this but he always refers to someone as being "awful good" instead of "awfully." Quite the oxymoron there Butch!

[bvon44]

Two that I noticed and posted in GDT

"Anisimah...excuse me...Anisnon"

"John Tavares has played rerentruss tonight" shades of Scooby Doo on that one!

Though, neither of those is probably good enough to be inducted into the hall

He did and also said the Isles record would be much better if the atmosphere was always like this and yet their record is like 2-7 with 14k+ in the building.

"Chara obliged Neil in the sport of hockey"

Stopped me dead in my tracks walking through my kitchen.

[Bert Marshall days]

On PAP taking a penalty -

"He has to control his tempo"

He meant TEMPER

[petrocelli]

Right after the game as the Isles were skating to the dressing room...

Butch: "this is the first game of the year that the Isles lost when leading after two periods."

silence silence silence.....

Jiggs finally says: "I don't think they were leading after two periods."

Butch: "oh, yeah."

[IsleNmetFan4Life]

I'm just fast-forwarding through the PVR to see the goals (listened to it at work). Definitely heard Steve Tavaros after the second Isles goal!

that one (post game comment) was brilliant.

[Potvins Cups]

"Howie they're bangin' each other already!"

[Richie Daggers Crime]

That Boomer and Carton commercial they always play has a good line by Boomer that sounds conspicuously like a Butchism:

"There's nothing better than winning collectively as a team."

[aIsle21]

Don't know if anyone caught this in the post game but they were talking about how great Nilsson's February was and Butch said "This is why he won player of the month for the year."
