Thought that was a better episode this week. Loved the bit of the ref saying "**** you" to Phaneuf and the Penguin before giving them the penalties ;D Also enjoyed the discussion between Crosby and Phaneuf.

Poor D'Amigo getting stuck with the credit card roulette bill for the steaks

And I wish they would stop making me like Carlyle
 
Yeah the whole Sid-Dion discussion was the highlight for me. Red Wings parts were still boring as all hell though.

And watching Carlyle tell Fraser and Ranger that they're being scratched of course.
 
Got a bit of Carlyle giving it to the team in the Panthers game intermission.  Babcock likely scared the cameraman in the Wings room to death.
 
This episode was much better than the first.

Liked the awkward face on (Holland, maybe?) when he assumed Reimer was starting against Pittsburgh and Reimer had to break it to him that Bernier was playing.
 
Wow, went to watch this on Sportsnet Pacific and it says regional restrictions apply.  Yes 247 is a being treated as a hockey game being blacked out.

EDIT:  I was wrong,  just started a few minutes late.  :P
 
23/7's are much more enjoyable when the teams lose. Make for better tv.

Carlyle likes to say Firetruck a lot.
 
So the segment with Phaneuf and Crosby talking about Kadri coming after him etc...

Crosby is a whiner, that's all there is to it.  Sounded like such a crybaby. 
 
I didn't think Reimer necessarily had it in him, but I thought his body language suggested he is absolutely hating how the situation is being handled and playing out.

Thought the capture of the Phaneuf/Crosby exchange was great.

I love the way Babcock approaches the game and his attitude towards it.

Glad to see the Leafs perspective be more in the spotlight. Detroit's is quite boring. Babcock's pretty much the only one worth watching for.
 
I completely agree with comments about Crosby. Ugh ... what a whiny person.

The "eff" word is my new favorite word!

Dion vs Kessel is great!

Lordy, and not much else: Gotta move your legs! Move your firetrucking legs! Legs! Firetruck! Move! Your legs gotta firetruck! ... Randy, vary your word choice a bit lest they literally tune you out.

My favorite bit was the dinner out. It didn't feel all that forced for a reality show, and approached a decent documentary when it caught the wordplay between D'Amigo and Reimer. "Gotta go with the hot hand" "... Win and you're in."

After watching two episodes here's what I know about Randy's coaching:

The players have to be better and he can't do it for them.

Is there anywhere that I can watch the episode tonight when I get home?

CityTV and SN are airing it again tonight, there's times in the first post. Or do you mean another way to watch it?

He also loves the F word, in that rant he used it 8x, not bad for 30 seconds long sequence especially if you take into account some other coarse language he used.

Thanks C, yeah I meant is there a way to access it online at my leisure that you're aware of?
