Watching a little WHL hockey on FSNW.
Blazers vs Silvertips. Love College and Jr Hockey

Sharks beat the Ducks tonight. Was at work but sounded like a good game on the Radio

I like the Idea about putting Savard on the shelf for the rest of the year and using his money to pick up a Hired Gun, Although I don't know who would be available.
The thing is you can't just cut him loose, you still have to pay him and with that ridicules contract, you can't shelf him and he won't retire.
I hope for his sake though he does get better. And get his head fixed.

Johan Franzen scored 5 goals last night to beat the Sens 7-5 :-) Not much defense played last night. Was almost like watching the allstar game.

Franzen 5 - Ottawa 5. Luckily for the Wings Draper and Kronwall were there to pick up Johan's slack. :-)

I love that Johnson put DiPietro on his ass in one punch :-) And DiPietro's reasoning...."He has long arms" :-)

No kidding.. One worry I have is how the defense/goaltending will hold up. Really the Wings have been having to put up big goal numbers. Last I remember they are around 20th in the league in goals allowed per game and 2nd in goals/game. Not very good balance.

Agreed. Weird thing is they haven't had an big personell changes on the first 4 d-men.

Somewhere Ronnie from the jersey shore is yelling about 1 shot.:-)

Here's some fun. :-) 18 of 'em. :-)

Makes me miss the Wings/Avs rivalry. The Roy vs Vernon fight was great. Seeing Claude Lemuix hide like a turtle, Shanahan railing Roy and then ultimately Vernon and Roy facing off.

WOW what a game !! Three fights in three seconds,
and two goal in 120 seconds, Oh another fight:-)

Man you guys hate Claude. I think its the third time this year hes been discussed. :-)
I was never an Avs fan, but Roy made Maltby his bit@h for a second. He was an angry goalie though and he could throw hands. Seriously though I dont know what Hasek was doing Roy would have made him look like DiPietro, but wouldnt have stopped right away.

Hands down the best period of hockey I have ever witnessed!

Old time Bruins hockey,now that's what were talking about:-)
We beat the Stars and beat them up:-)

That is some serious height.

That hit in the Bs Stars game was no bueno. Even Ference said not a good thing when interviewed about it last night.

Bruins - Stars 1st period highlights. :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)

I don't often complain about the officials, but they stole one from the Hawks in Vancouver tonight. Hawks had a goal waved off for goalie interference when absolutely no contact was made. The Canuckleheads got a goal on an offsides play. And some terrible penalty calls which favored the home team. I don't think I have seen officiating this bad at a Hawks game since Denis Morel retired.

Tom I am not a fan of the refs, but I watched that whole game on the cbc feed and didnt think you were jobbed that bad.

The eirhoff play he was off sides, but how the hell did that go in untouched from the blue line? Turco should have had that all day, he didnt appear screened. As to the goal waived off the cbc guys showed there was contact with the blocker and the skate of the blackhawk. Incidental, but it did appear to technically be the right call.

As to the penalties, Canucks took 6 including I believe a 5-3 for about 50 seconds. The refs also gave the penalty in the last 3 min to the Canucks giving the Hawks the chance to tie it up. The Hawks took 5 penalties no 5-3. What really struck me about the game was how bad the Hawks PP looked. On one or two PPs I remeber they didnt even get a shot on net but the Canucks did get shots on the PK.

To me the story was the Hawks couldnt convert on any of their PPs including a 5-3. Luongo played well, two of the Hawks goals were flukie. Boyntons goal was off his hip. Bolland goal is confusing as hell to watch. It was an own goal of the dmans hand.
I am no fan of the canucks, but I saw it a little different.
I will say the operator of the goal horn in that arena is straight dbag. What the hell was that crap? The random honk numbers. Reminded me of the horn operator in Ottawa during the world jrs the other year.

Man Avery is such a dhole
