Wow what a damned good game last night (Buffalo-Montreal). It was probably the best hockey I've seen in a long time. Neither team gave up and just kept on fighting for it. Heck, I would have even been content with Buffalo losing because it was a good game. Still not a fan of the shootout, but it did get me on the edge of my seat.

And I don't know why I read the comments on TSN anymore. Other than for the laugh factor.

This one made me chuckle and almost spew coffee out of my nose this morning:

Quote:I think making a slapshot in a shootout is cheap and should not be allowed. Goalie don't expect it.

1) I thought the "goal" was to put the puck into the back of the net. I didn't know it was a requirement to get right up on top of the goalie to make a shot.
2) Goalies don't expect it? Should Vanek have said "I'm going to make a slapshop, be ready for it!" before he engaged?

9 points ahead, and yet, they still say we suck. At least they're not as whiny as those fans.

And we were down Tallinder, Numminen, Connolly (is he ever coming back?), and I'm sure I forgot someone. Oh and we had Peters on the ice, what a waste. So for his shift we had 4 players and a goon.

Good game Montreal, this is what hockey is all about! I hope we don't see you in the playoffs!
