...

Nikita is getting some healthy minutes tonight.

That was a pro-grade rush, there, with Myers.

9 sharts in the first! Also, were 55 and 51 the pairing on that last shift?

Ugh, Lady of Spain in the first period.

McCormick crushed that dude...I wouldn't be surprised if a bone is broken.

44...needs to work on the fighting thing. I see, did those fighters dislodge the fish in their ears?

Eh. Maybe. I guess it helps to have confirmation.

What the hell was all of that about?

WTF?

After hearing the Pegulas today, I'm convinced this season is by design.

I'll second this. That's "Warshinton Crapitols".

A tappet is part of the valve system that makes the "click clack" sound, hence "Click and Clack, the Tappet Brothers". I loved those guys, listened to them while driving a wheelchair van working my way through college.

May the Shart be with you...always.

Why scratch Weber?

So hard to watch a team that gives up so easily, specially when I'm flipping back and forth between the game and a WWII documentary where a veteran is near tears because he felt he could have done more to save a guy despite being ordered to leave him.

Thanks, Drew.

Why skate away from the puck? Why?

Rob Ray is talking way too much.

We forget that Kaleta is a fast skater, defensively sound, eager to go to the net and get dirty in the corners, an ideal pest, an excellent PK man, and has enough skill to score goals. There are not very many players like this on the roster, when the team actually needs more of this type. He is a prototypical Ted Nolan player, and a loyal warrior for his team mates and, perhaps most importantly, the fans. He's also reckless and prone to mental lapses. His body has suffered from his game. I wish he stays around long enough to pass on his passion to the new guys as they come up. I just don't see that happening right now.

...and that's what makes hockey so uniquely wonderful.

Myth. The food and coffee sucks, too. Just bad taste?

Myers didn't have a particularly bad game... I think some of you are trying to deflect from the fact that Hodgson was on the fourth line and all but invisible. When I did notice him, he was being rag-dolled on the walls in his own zone.

Well, that's that.

Myers got that on net! Improvement!

Ennis, Moulson, Stafford.
