“Boyd Gordon? What’s a Boyd Gordon?” Remember, this is a Wings fan. They don’t know what youth is in Detroit. Check out his blogging of the game, it’s quite entertaining.
  • Semin with a stick to the face on the follow through… at least it wasn’t his ankle.
  • Nylander’s soft-dump-almost-turned-goal made my heart skip a beat… bet it did you, too.
  • The announcer is asleep at the mic tonight; calling the Panthers “Penguins,” getting Kozlov’s number wrong (15 instead of 25).
  • For some reason, the shootout paperwork makes me laugh.
  • Where is Ovechkin’s shoot out kryptonite hidden? Someone needs to find a lead box for it.
  • Kozlov’s still money in the SO and Backstrom’s attempt was so smooth.
  • The Caps are definitely showing marked improvement on the shootout, as evidenced by the fact that they went 11 rounds, their second-longest shootout since November 26, 2005.

      I have not been impressed with Pothier this season at all. Schultz needs to learn how to check. Kozlov needs to be stronger on the back check last night. He got beat bad a few times that almost led to goals.

      I can’t even muster up a rant. Tired of being pwned by crap like the Panthers. Is it draft day yet?

      Well, someone in the Ovechkin household drives that car- it’s always in the driveway. Papa Ovie, perhaps?

      My plan is to start stalking Boyd Gordon’s house. I need to find out what makes that guy tick.

      It only took two games and two wins under Boudreau before they revert to their old ways. The first sign of the old habits: OV rushing up the left side for a 1-on-2 or 1-on-3. I didn’t see any of that in the two wins. They played more as a team. Boy, Washington was passing and rushing so well for those first two games. I gotta think that if Friday’s game goes badly, Ted is going to dump GMGM and the next GM may or may not keep Coach B.

      HotDog,
      I’ll be working on posting the commercial after I return from taking the newborn and his mother to the doctor.
