The Boston play-by-play guy got alot of heat the other night for making an over the top comparison between Cooke and Sirhan Sirhan. But, when it comes does to it, hyperbole aside, most people feel exactly that. There is not a single fan in the game, outside Pittsburgh, that doesn't want to see that guy get it handed to him.

Mike Milbury called him a skunk last night on the air...I thought it was quite funny actually and he and Roenick are going to fight on the air at some point...

Roenick better wear soft shoes ...

Yeh, the game is stocked with high-end NHL prospects. The Whalers won Game 2 in double overtime, and Tom Wilson had a hat trick. Going to be interesting to see Tie Domi's kid tonight, as well as the Hughes kid the Rangers just signed, but of course, I have actually become a fan of the Whalers going to all these games. Best hockey out there, IMO. It's a 1,000 miles per hour, as the committment to defense, isn't what it is as the NHL level.

The Stolarz kid in net for London? He's the last hope for the Flyers.

I guess I should give Terry O'Reilly his stick back...

Easy to hate Neil as we've seen but I like the guy. Old school tough & def goes over the line at times but seems to know the limits between going just far enough without it being illegal (sometimes).

Loved that he asked Cooke to dance last night more than once & COoke wanted NO part of that fight.

I Can't stand that dirty bastard. Saw a clip of him launching an
Elbow into some penguins head the other night. If it was Cooke,
I'd say fine but otherwise looked like a headshot to me...

Same with Matt Barnaby, I HATED him on Buffalo & Pittsburgh & loved him when he was a Ranger. He actually had some decent skill, could really pass the puck & was fast, just always got to hung up with the antics.
