Why does everything have to be black and white around here? Does shooting a lot give you a chance to score more goals? Yes. Do you also have to have a good shot for most of those pucks to go in... Yes. Why dont we agree that Carter got so many goals because he shoots a lot, with a good shot...

18-16, the Cubs had a 12-1 lead in the third inning and lost the game. Bartman was probably at Wrigley in a baby carriage that day.

Bartman is the face of the Cubs franchise. There is no bigger group of losers in all of sports.

Didn't catch the whole game, but it sounded like a good one. Glad to see Bryz with 2 strong games. I wonder which game he will get this weekend? I'd like to see him start Saturday to keep the momentum going, but the Rangers game is going to be a huge. I'm not sure what I would do. If we can take away 4 points this weekend that would be awesome, but I'm mostly concerned with finally beating the stinkin' Rangers.

He will get the Rags game I would think. He's been really good vs. the Devils, but he has to get the start at MSG.

Then Shelley should shoot 10 times a game, he could have 25 goals this year!

That's what I'm thinking. It would have been nice if the Rags were on Saturday. I'd say play him in both games if their schedule wasn't so busy.

I have had bad luck in recent games I have gone to as well. I think they have lost 5 in a row at WFC with me in attendance, I have been at 4 consecutive wins at the Rock and MSG. I was at the game at MSG when Richards scored the 5-3 shorthanded goal.

To truly paraphrase.. some posters didnt think saying Carter was a sniper was completely accurate, but that he posted goals because he gets in good positions and shoots a lot. They said he wasnt a true sniper like Stamkos.

Some just like to manipulate things..

Because some people come here to bicker and think they are the All Knowing and they are notorious for it. Surprised more people just don't ignore him to be honest. But...on a slow day, I will engage in conversation for comic relief.

I think Bob has to get a start here. I guess if Bryz doesn't get a huge workload Saturday if he started he could play Sunday at MSG. Then have Bob start Tues vs. the Fishsticks.

I can't believe the Rags have three days off before hosting the Flyers while the Flyers have 2 games, including a back to back. Bullpoop schedule.

I just hope they make Fonzi freak out on Sunday. Maybe they will dress Shelley too so he and Rupp and duke it out and call each other irrelevant.

Screw dressing Shelley. Flyers have a losing record with him in the lineup.
That lineup last night played very well. Until JVR and Briere are ready to return go with last night's lineup.

He gets a lot of goals because he gets in good positions and shoots a lot, isn't that what snipers do?
- funmaster18

Depends... guys like Briere and Hartnell get in good positions and shoot a lot as well. The argument was completely semantical in nature (go figure), with guys saying he wasnt a true sniper like a Stamkos, etc...

I personally dont care how you score goals as long as you score goals, but can understand the argument. Who would you rather have shooting the puck in the open slot.. a Stamkos, AO, Gaborik, Kovalchuk... or Carter.
