2011-2012 Trippisms Thread
Here is the place to post your favorite Tripp moments of the 2011-2012 season. It's only been 2 games so far and he's already in mid season form.
After that game Jeff O'neil was the "eye" of the Hurricanes....no pun intended.

We need to do a running count of "Puck Support" too, we're at two so far, unless I missed one somewhere

There were at least two in the Washington game. Was at the RBC for the first game, so I dunno about that one.
It'd be funny if we kept the tally for the entire season, then at the end, contact him or John and say "Tripp said 'puck support' 3594 times this season."

There was one "puck support" in the Tampa game.

Maybe remove the hot tub reference and make it "Puck Support"

He went off on a tangent about Ukrainian baseball during the slugs game.

I was watching the game at a bar, so all I got was the closed caption as far as commentary went. I thought for sure something was lost in translation from what he was actually saying when that came up, but I guess I should have known better.

Love it!
You may want to consider replacing "had dinner with" with "shared a dinner with". I distinctly remember Tripp explaining how he shared a dinner with Staal one time a season or two ago and how that sounded strangely personal for a TV broadcast (not that that has EVER stopped Tripp).

"Their team didn't win the Stanley Cup with this character, or lack thereof."
Chad Larose has more character than the entire Boston roster.

Is the Canes broadcast usually this "Canes-oriented"? Jack Edwards is the biggest homer you can find but NESN usually features a lot of info on the other teams when they play them. It seemed like everything said was just about the Hurricanes, even to the point when they featured something about the Bruins it was in relation to the Hurricanes (Kelly's quote about Staal). Is it always like this?

Nope, not at all, could have had something to do with playing them twice in about a week though.

being as unbiased as I can be, I'm not a huge Tripp fan but Forslund is a pro... top five PBP guy imo... should be national.

He said something about the Boston fans being dumb or something. That whole broadcast was really down on Boston now that I have stopped laughing.

He said Boucher would probably start in Winnipeg because he started a preseason game there, and Cam Ward hasn't played in that building.

I'd rather Ward play the Jet game, divison opponent and it's going to be very hostile there.. the crowd is right on top of ya.. Cam will thrive in that spot imo.

Even though I don't care for the rolling stones I think comparing Bieber to them is just a sin.

I always thought the many times early in the year when we didn't score a goal or get a win and Tripp would say it's just as good as getting a win or getting a goal
