Fair enough, you went past my pay grade with the last reference. You could have made those guys up for all I know....

Just a few more days to burn.

Former Presidents of the IOC, in my youth.

Bizarre that they're playing Washington pre-season twice right before openning against them.

Anyone hear whether that hybrid icing rule is going to continue?

Oh - and if I would have made them up, I would have used Cuthbert J. Twillie, Larson E. Whipsnade, or Mahatma Kane Jeeves.

Hope someone gets those references.

I think the Union still has to vote on it. I think that vote involves all the players in the Union.

Game is on CSN spill channel - anyone know an HD channel on Comcast?

Puck drop time,really looking forward to watching Pirri tonight.I think that going with 8 D is due to the Hawks not wanting to take a chance on losing Kostka.Going to be a Rockford shuffle with the forwards.

Nice play by Sharp.

Thanks I've been watching it on CLTV

Nice play by Sharp.

I liked the quick shot by Leddy on the goal too.

I hate when Pat and Edzo go into verbal grab a$$ mode...mid season form already...anyway, to my admitted untrained eye Nordstrum in the 1st did not look out of place and did well on the PK..

Bulin beat to the glove side - cut him.

Does Foley read this blog?

Said Green just gave up a pizza to Kruger.

Anyone else think Nordstrom has played his way on the team for sure after his performance tonight? IMHO Sharp looks ready.

Toews line has looked ready, too.

Interesting use of Bollig and Hayes as one of the PK rotations.

Apparently Bollig played a lot of PK in Rockford. He might be a classic case of a guy who literally fought his was in the NHL and now is getting a chance to show that he can actually play the game. He isn't going to be anything more than a 4th liner but he at least can play.

Agreed, Kane and Toews have some weird juju together. Always have. Bick rounds that line out nicely.

From what I heard on HNIC, its a non=binding survey. The BOG will still have the final say. At least that is how I interpreted it.

Two words: George Costanza. Loved Curb Your Enthusiasm too. Larry David is like George Costanza to the tenth power!

Saad's name called a lot tonite - some good opportunities - still needs to learn when to keep / shoot it and when to give it up.

The George Costanza character was kinda, sorta, based on Larry David.

I would rather see him error on the side of shooting.
