Come on Avs.....

What a GREAT game by the young Avs tonight!!!

Jiggy did some work...

Watched the third and ot while at work on phone smoking a upmann connie 1.
Thought both were good.

Appears to be a frustrated, unmotivated young man lately.

Word is he is on the block...tell you what, I wouldn't want him on the Hawks...great skills, but attitude sucks when things don't go his way. :-)

Jonathan Toews second in the NHL in goals.

Young guns tearing it up, Andrew Shaw has 5 goalsd in 8 games, and Jimmy Hayes has 4 goals and 3 assists in 9 games...and these kids are scoring big goals, not 6th goals in 6-0 games.

Hawks tied with the Rangers for 1st overall in the NHL....at least 'til tomorrow.

Two lackluster games so far this week by the Bruins.
They got Lucky (thanks to Rask) against the Panthers.
And They showed up for about 10 min against the Lightning.
Timmy, looks a little slow and seems to be playing back in the net lately,
I noticed it in the beginning of the year, but the whole team played like crap so it didn't really matter.
Historically, January has been a tough month for the B's. But it's time to get back on track The Devils tonight and a big game on Saturday against the Rangers.
Time to take Back First :-)

On the Timmy comment, don't get me wrong I would take him in a seven game series over any other goalie in the League.

i just think Rask should get and deserves a few extra starts in the next couple of weeks. :-)

Don't forget two years ago Thomas was on the trading block.
Tuukka is so smooth and quick,a couple bad games at the beginning of last season and it was back to Timmy, I guess it was kama.
I like Rask better then Thomas,I forget the stat but Thomas has given up 17 goals compared to 6 for Rask in their last seven games.

Tuukka is playing really well right now he had three shutouts in 4 games through Christmas and the two weeks into the new year.
If they don't trade Tuukka then he is the goalie for this team in the future.

Shaw has been on a tear the past few games. Good interview on NHL network.

OUCH Taylor Hall..........

Bet Taylor puts on a helmet for the pre-game skate from now on. :-)

His mother has apparently mandated it....

Tom Renney? :-)

Wow, is he going to recover fully from that?

Looks like the Astronaut in the Gallery of Humans in the original "Planet of the Apes".

Wings and Blues both win, drop the Hawks to 3rd in the Central in one fell swoop. A Hawks win Vs. the Panthers tomorrow would vault them right back into 1st. Crazy division! :-)

Wing's win brought them into 1st in the Western Conference :-)

What's up with some Pacific teams only having played 44-45 games? Do the Sharks, Stars, and Ducks have a brutal schedule coming up??

Hopefuly by 11PM, Hawks will be back to 1st in the Western Conference. :-)

They must, but will it be as brutal as the Hawks' 9 game road trip next month? :-)

At least we won't have to hear about how weak the central is and how the Wings have an inflated record this year. :-) I mean look how tough the Pacific is. :-)

:-) Mike I couldn't resist.


BTW, did anyone see Datsyuk pull his patented toe drag deke in the shootout only for Smith to throw up his glove at the last second and snag it? The Bertuzzi goal was nice, but I've only seen a couple goalies luck into stopping Datsyuk's patented move and it's usually a deflection off their mask.

Pavel's move was sick, Mike....Smith's save even sicker.
