Just watched the replay. The way the Lightning played, anyone else loses about 5-1.

Crawford played well.


The Lightning were still playing last year's SCF while the Hawks thought it was a Thursday in January.

Goligoski was doing everything he could not to smile when he watched that replay.

Coincidentally, I shot a guy in the seeds this past Saturday when playing hockey. His cup ended up in a better condition than Hendricks' did.

Which maybe explains why you're playing in a beer league and Goligoski's in the bigs. :p ;) ;)

It's pickup, actually, and we have a rule of no slap shots or else you're endlessly derided by all opponents and those who might be your opponents next week.

Still, my wrist shot has cracked one guy's shin pad, caused a goalie to get a new chest protector, and sent a poster to the hospital to check his ankle after the USCHO posters' game in St. Louis. People seem emboldened to block shots when they know slappers aren't coming their way. A nut cup, however, takes a lot more to crack than most anybody's wrist shot can produce.

All that wanking paid off, eh?

Saturday night, Hockey Night in Canada, Montreal and Toronto, Leafs honor Turk Broad, Tim Horton and Dave Keon....... Nothing better.

And then the game starts...... Habs score on their first shot, Leafs get their first shot about 11 minutes into the game and still have just one with just under five left in the first. And the shot on goal was a dump in from outside the blue line. :mad:

Whew!

Our long nightmare is finally over.

Strange; I rather enjoyed Gurth's post.:) Not only was the "losing streak" snapped Sunday, my copy of One Goal III arrived Saturday. I'm enjoying that too. Strongly recommended.

Don't worry though. As someone with a secondary rooting interest in the CBJ, I more than understand the rags side of the rags/riches dichotomy. You're entitled to your boo.

Rumor is that Tampa's first offer to Stamkos is in the area of 8 years, 68 M. That... Isn't going to get it done.

IF he is willing to help the bolts secure their core in the next couple years, I'm guessing 9-9.5M aav will be the magic number. Otherwise, he'll be in the Kane/Toews/Kopitar neighborhood at 10+.
 
Re: NHL 2015, Part 3: Stanley Cup and Offseason

So, Dennis Wideman should be expecting to miss some time, question is... How much?

And this (edit: that, gurt beat me thanks to phone copying issues ;)) piece today by John Scott in tPlayers Tribune is pretty great. I honestly hope he can pot a couple goals and gets amongst the loudest cheers from the fans.
