Bad week for russians in the NHL playoffs.

 

Alexander Radulov and Andrei Kostitsyn let team down in Nashville. (or did they?)

Kovy injured - team plays great.

Ovechkin used like offensive specialist even though he wears the "C" .

 

I don't know if it matters much, but the Kostitsyn's are from Belarus. But looking again, I'm guessing that's why you used italics for Radulov.

I don't know if it matters much either in the greater scheme, but just seemed like a bad week given there are only

5 regular Russian forwards left in the playoffs by my count.

 

Ovechkin, Semin, Radulov, Kovulchuk, Anisimov.

And other than Anisimov, they've all had their issues in the playoffs, whether it's injury, reduced ice time, or suspension. More support to your earlier post about it being a rough go for the Russians.

Sooo Patrick Kane got wasted yesterday, choked a chick, and got kicked out of a bar yesterday.

 

Best tweet: You can take the kid out of Buffalo but you can't take Buffalo out of the kid.

 

link?

 

And getting drunk and disorderly isn't a Buffalo trait.

This'll ruin many Buffalo hopefuls' days:

"Expect Rick Dudley to be soon named asst gm of the Mtl Canadiens. Marc Bergevin and Leafs gm Brian Burke are in discussions."

 

"Dudley's move is complicated as he's done extensive work on Draft for Tor. Leafs would prefer his start with Mtl be delayed to after Draft."

Solid move by Montreal if it happens.

Thank you, Bucky Gleason, for this gem: http://www.buffalonews.com/sports/columns/bucky-gleason/article843909.ece

 

McGuire is the best sideline reporter in TV with his informative, no-nonsense approach.

 

Seriously...first he suggests McGuire should be Sabres' GM, then he says he's the best sideline reporter on TV, in any sport! Do these guys have a summer home together in Connecticut?

Couldn't find a link to anything about choking a girl (so maybe those tweets were just rumors), but here are some pictures from his weekend:
