Phoenix beat the Canucks last night. Their number one center is Chipchura. Their forward lineup resembles an expansion team. I expect it will be tough.

If we lose this one then we have to question this teams fortitude. If we win then 3 out of 8 on the road trip is tolerable given the nature of the trip and the new additions (almost 25% of the skaters) becoming acclimatized. Saw a lot of promise in the newcomers the last half of the game against LA.
DSP played well. Hope it wasn't because a Duck gets pumped to play the rival Kings. Although if he plays like that against the Bruins I'll be very happy.

Is it really too much to ask just to beat these guys ...
Cheers.

Glad to see our number one draft pick a number of years ago is now a number one centre. We had some pretty good scouts back then to be able to foresee the long term development of Chip

Yeah, shootout or no, though, two points is still two points ... don't like seeing the juggernaut Sens making a run at it ... it's all about Andrew Hammond ... they'll go as far as he'll take them ... where have we heard that before ... need a good team effort tonight to beat these guys ... just get it done ... Cheers.

Cheers. Hammy will come down to earth soon enough. Not the first time a low prospect goalie has come into the league and lit it up for a month only to become a 'has been' or 'also ran'. Didn't Patsy lalime have an amazing start? Was that with Ottawa as well? Hope the Boys remember we lost to the Yotes not too long ago!

I'm scared of this game but at the same time I'm not. I think it's time the boys got back to winning, and no better time than right now.
I'm counting on our top guns, Pk-Patches-Price, to take care of business. Don't let me down P3!!!

I'm watching the Bruins/Flyers game right now (tied 1-1 midway through 3rd) and it seems to me the Bruins are much more of a smaller, fast skating team than they once were. Just an impression. I don't feel like adding up their heights and weights and averaging it all out. Does some link have that info?

Wonder what Cherry says about Kessel's plea to the media to stop picking on Phaneuf.
I have a feeling it'll be pom-poms instead of telling Kessel to shut up, take it like a man, and do your talkin' on the ice. Like he'd do to 28 other teams.
We already know that the league is picking on Lucic.
The Leafs are 7-25-2 since December 17th. But you'd never know it.

Man, we'd better not look cross eyed at anyone tonight. If I was a journalist and wanted an earth shattering sports story, I'd do what I could to bug the refs dressing room at each vernue. I'd bet you'd hear some juicy stuff. They can't all just be incompetent, can they?

We're going to the net well, but it would be nice to score one...an ugly one, a beautiful one, I don't care what it looks like.

Save-a-franchise-management. Ain't nothin gonna save that franchise. Or any Vegas franchise either. More of Bettman's lunacies.

Poor line change there gave up an odd man rush and now they put on some pressure.

We're outshooting them.....but the Yotes just had two better chances than we've had.

That's twice that Gally has been slammed into the boards. Since he's not paralyzed, not worthy of a call

Gotta bury those, Max!
Nice pass from DD.
What a frustrating game, so far.
Not quite intense enough.....
Remember how we played against L.A. in the third period? Haven't seen that yet, tonight.
