We picked up a point on the Rangers tonight. I'm not giving up just yet. :D

Yep. There is a chance!

Everyone seems to forget there is a draft lottery this year. So there is always a chance!

That was a strangely satisfying win... if only because I was one of the original Pommer haters on this board... so I was happy to see us win with a full 60 minute effort while the Wild got shut out last night. :D (and, yes, I know it is only one game... no need to remind me of such)

Jochen? Are you jokin? Weeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

Yes! In like Flynn! hard work pays off!!!!!

Methot. 2 minutes for cheating!

We're playing hard this game. Not quite gay porn hard. But, hard.

Pittsburgh's GM said something along those lines recently. Said he pays attention to what his eyes tell him and makes decisions based on that alone.

That's all I got. :P

Yeah, Weber. Clear that little douche bag out of Miller's space. :D

...and Pardy makes about $11.5 million less in salary. ;)

:wacko: Whatcha doing there, Drew?

Otter!

Get out of his way, Reggie. Urgh.

Nice to see Brad May defend Patrick Kaleta's hit on the Ottawa intermission feed. ... now they're doing a segment on how bad Tyler Myers sucks. :)

Did you see him hammering Alfie with cross checks? Alfie came back at him with one. The one thing I will give Stafford over a guy like Pommer is Drew is at least capable of playing a rugged game... the problem is most of the time he doesn't seem too interested in doing so...

The Ottawa announcers are bitching and whining up a storm about missed calls. Waaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh.

I think I'd rather have a team of less talented hard workers than a team of talented drifters.

Yep. Ennis hits a guy in the chest and gets an elbowing call. I guess we're giving too much effort tonight and the NHL doesn't like it.

Only the hardest of the hardcore fans around tonight... or maybe it is just those of us who have nothing better to do on a Friday night. :P

You inspired me to look up the AHL standings: http://theahl.com/stats/statdisplay.php?type=standings&subType=1&season_id=40&tournament_id=0&leagueId=4&division_id=-1&confId=0 Looks like 5th place in the West. 6-4 over the last 10. Larsson should be a nice addition to the Amerks.

Porter is faster than I thought.

I agree, but the probability of giving up a short handed goal definitely goes down without Pommer back there.

I'm starting to think that if Darcy stays, both Vanek and Miller go. But, if a new GM is brought in, then I'm not sure sure. Hey Terry Pegula - if you're reading this, Rick Dudley is a little old, but he'd be a much better GM to preside over a rebuild than Darcy Regier!!! :D
