Jesus, Timonen just got beat to a puck by someone who had to come across the ice east to west AND south to north... and he just had to get to it straight from center line to red line... amazing.

Shaw at least has potential. He's just really, really stupid.

Is Eddie O drunk tonight? He is really feelin' it.

There's another example of Richards terrible vision. He passes from deep in the offensive zone to the blue line... during a defensive pairing change.

Another shitty power play followed up by TMM.
This is the classic mid january shit game setup.

Looks like Richards was the one too slow getting off the ice.

OOH! It's time for another bad power play for the Hawks. Neat. Let's try not to give up a shortie here.

Yeah. A bad change cost the Nucks an easy 2 on 1 break on that kill, and the Hawks never really got a shot off.
Pretty much what we're expecting on a night like tonight.

That period was what Paul Westerberg would have called a hard day of nothing much at all.

Two shitty power plays.

Man I'll tell you these Canucks collapse to the puck on defense a lot better that the Hawks do.

Other than the Sedins setting up that floating fuck Vrbata, I don't think there's much that the Canucks do exceptionally well. They're just a pretty good team across the board.

Crawfords doing his part tonight. Let's hope a forward can step up.

That may have been a three man redirect. Looks like Oduya then hossa redirects off the crossbar then either off lacks skate or Toews stick into the net.
Then another sick save by Crawford.

Kruger unassisted!

Garbage goal from Toews and Hossa, finesse goal from Kruger. Hockey is so weird sometimes! I'll take it. Screw Vancouver.

Went home, then the daughter called. By the time I got upstairs, they were showing the Kruger highlight. Oh well...I'll take it.

Good win.

Meanwhile, the Oilers give up three goals in the first ten minutes to make sure the Jets get bounced. Gonna be really hard for them to claw back in now.

Getting hot at the right time.

Yeah. I always say a big part of a championship run is getting hot at the right time.

Then you'd better pray we don't run into Minnesota. Something like a +47 differential since the halfway point while the Hawks have been negative?

Yeah it was some real cheap shit he got pinched on too. Just a Bush league play.

Went to a Columbus Blue Jackets game tonight.

GREAT arena, lousy team. Yay Dalton Prout!!!

_________________

I really enjoyed the Hawks game I went to there a few years ago. Super nice people, super cheap tickets and Tim Horton's coffee at every concession booth. I even got to see Shaw and Calvert in a lightweight scrap. I want to say we all got 10 concession dollars along with our ticket, a Tim Horton's mug and a coupon for a free dozen Tim Bits.

That's my purse! I don't know you!

I've heard great things about the place but remain completely unenthusiastic about the NHL being in Columbus.

_________________

SUPER cheap tickets.
2nd row of the upper deck, dead center ice - $24/each on stub hub.
Parking was $10 in the deck attached to the arena.

This place is smaller, but really makes the UC look outdated and expensive.
