French Collection

I suspect they send him down for the Rochester games.

Can't watch tonight's game, my son plays at the same time. Will follow the score on my phone.

Can't believe this is the third meeting with the Habs and we haven't played the Leafs yet. This was my favourite team until the French Connection came along and I went in my own direction. French Canadian family celebrated many Stanley Cups without me. My turn is coming, just need one. Let's go Buffalo!

Drank 3-4 cups with cream and sugar every morning until 2003. Switched to tea, black or with milk if I'm in a rush to get it down. I'll have as many as 7-8 cups a day when the weather is cold. Darjeeling is my favourite tea growing region, light flavour.

That's what I saw as well.

They are playing possession hockey, with a lot of confidence.

Hit the net Larry.

We want four.

Peeper!

Watching NBC feed in Canada as well. Two former Flyers on the broadcast in JR and Keith Jones, hope Kathryn Tappen is in our corner.

Give Dahlin another link in his leash, that dangle last game was awesome. He is making mistakes but his upside is huge, this kid will spin checkers into the ice and score a beauty soon. Let's go Buffalo.

Cardiac Kids strike again.

It's very early for this discussion. The factor I'm leary about is disrupting the chemistry that is developing in this dressing room. Every year there are deadline deals that improved the team on paper but fizzled out during the actual playoffs. They need to keep their eyes open for deals but not seek them out for a win at all cost playoff.

He has not garnered the attention yet, but a few more games like this and it may get mentioned. The stats are ramping up for Dahlin and the highlight reel as well. Dahlin plays a tougher position, is a year younger and has a physical side to his game. I am biased, but he gets my vote if he builds on this last game.

Wow, huge confidence builder. I was at an OHL game, thus missed this one. UPL had an easy win for Sudbury, looks good. An earlier comment about checking the standings caught my attention because I am doing that a lot now. They are a playoff contender. In the past few years, I would already be looking at and anxiously awaiting new draft lists. What a difference. Let's go Buffalo!

Silky Mitts!

Thank goodness Lehner is gone.

Sam needed a puck to the face to get him going.

Sam! Nice stretch pass by Dahlin.

Jack is back!

Good shift by Sam.

Sportsnet feed showed Jack and Schaller hit their legs. Looked innocent enough, hope they show it again.

I've heard it a thousand times that the game is not played on paper, but the Canucks do not come across as a division leader. Travis Green is getting kudos for his coaching, could be a large part of it. Let's beat these guys. Set the tone for when we meet our expansion brothers in the 50th anniversary season Stanley Cup final.
