I gotta admit, the band playing right into the introductions of the teams was pretty good. They'll never have a Super Bowl but the NHL is figuring it out.

They must be starting to design the jerseys for these outdoor games, because this it the best looking one yet.

 

 

...and I hate red jerseys.

 

 

The uniforms are very nice.  I like the Wings especially with how the white gloves carry the length of the sleeve and provide an interesting look.

I usually hate white gloves but they looked good tonight.

I just realized that there's a pretty big likelihood that no Canadian team will make the playoffs this year.  Has that ever happened?

It hasn't happened while the NHL has had six Canadian teams. In 1970 the Habs and Leafs were the only Canadian teams and missed out.

There's still a shot that Ottawa can sneak in.  Boston isn't a lock for anything.  I could see them making it.  You never know.

Certainly. I doubt Ottawa gets in but I don't think anybody was saying they won't.

Why did they let John Lennon sneak into that photo?

Now that they have added Varone, I'd say they are pretty much a lock to make it ..........  ;)

The Predators are really starting to come on. They've got points in each of their last nine games (6-0-3), including a current four-game winning streak. Three of those wins have come against Chicago, St. Louis and Florida (three of the top six teams in the league standings) by a combined score of 13-1.

Ryan Johansen has helped but Filip Forsberg is really turning it on. He has two hat tricks in his last three games. The one concern was Pekka Rinne as he was struggling mightily early on, but he's turned it around suddenly. In his last five games he's 4-0-1 with a .974 save percentage (151 saves on 155 shots). If this team can complete the possible return of Scott Hartnell that has been rumored and Rinne can continue to be the great goalie he has been in the past then they might be a favorite despite the lower seeding.

Stalock (TOR), Berra (COL), Bourque (CBJ), Brown (SJ), Warsofsky (PIT), Cracknell (VAN), Rinaldo (BOS) on waivers.


 


I know our tank was obvious and in the public, but, other than Pysyk, did we intentionally keep players who were clearly better than our current players off our roster?

Of course they will win this year since I had a lot of money on them last year.

They ask if the hawks are the favourites to win it all after the deadline, oh man reporters.

They were before the deadline, now they are the only ones who can lose the cup.


I didn't even realize this jackass was still playing ...

The article is really rich ... going on about the good character of this joker.

 

Could have traded for him in NHL2000, but I refused because he had slime written all over him.

Like him or not, he's the kind of player the Sabres needed at the time. Someone willing to do the borderline things like the hit on Drury. Still not sure why Lindy thought Drury had been elbowed. His sending out Mair, Kaleta and Peters was pretty weak.

I ####ing hate Chris Neil as an Ottawa Senetor. As a person, though, I would garauntee he's a good guy. Nobody stays around somewhere that long without having something to offer. And he can actually play.
