Nice job Gunner. I just got back from FLA as well. If the hotel I was in got NBCSP/Root or the NHL Network, I might have never come back.

Great win over Boston. I am a fan of the shootout. Love to see pure skill on skill.

Shanahan showing video of Subban slewfooting Kunitz and says he talked to him about no longer hitting like that or he'd be suspended.

Did you see Rinaldo do it to a Devil yesterday? Looked like he was trying to kick him. I'm sure that one will be looked at by Shanny too.

Tough to argue either teams merits. I do think Nashville is set up for a run. Radulov stuff is intriguing but I wouldn't hold my breath if I were a Nashville fan.

I'm interested to see what the Blues do goaltending wise. One would think they would give the nets to Halak and not rotate but who knows...

Perhaps Ilya Bryzgalov was waiting for March to get it going. In five games this month, he's 5-0-0 with a 0.99 GAA and .968 save percentage.


That right there makes me nervous.

I know Elliot has been sensational this year but I would go with Halak.

I can hear the post-game presser now....

Reporter: "So, Chris...what did you think about being back there on the point with Geno for that shorthanded goal against?"

Letang: "We got our butts kicked. Thirty seconds. We went like this. He went like that. I said to Geno: Where'd he go? Geno just said Where'd who gooooo?"

Geno: "And get this. He's laughing at us the whole time he skating down the ice."

Duper: (casually walking by) : "That was me laughing, d!ckhead."

Hybrid icing has good traction at GM meeting, but not much love for red line being reinstated.

Sounds good to me.

My understanding is that if the puck is iced and the defensive team's player is at the tops of the circle before the opposition, icing will be called right away and no touch up is necessary. If the team that iced the puck has a player who is closer by that point, they can still win the race. I think that is the general concept, I might not have the specifics right though.

Play NHL12. Be a pro and start in the CHL. Nothing more frustrating than having the wheels to beat the computer to the puck only to have hybrid icing whistle the play dead. The first couple times it happened I kept thinking this god d@mn game is glitched. Then i realized what was going on.

Yup, that was why I said not to go with the general admission because the vertically challenged can't see anything.

As for bryz, it has been a about face when it comes to the likes of him. People are saying they knew he would turn it around and that they knew he would struggle some going to a new system. A month ago people were calling for a trade to get Bernier or Schneider because they were sick of him already.

I still haven't gotten a 360. I am quite the slacker when it comes to technology and upgrading. Hell I just moved into the smartphone world as you know. Next purchase is a plasma then 360.

Ah, I see. Well that seems like it could cut down on the dmen getting smeared into the boards that is for sure. I don't think that would be all that bad.

Maybe you need to lose #fossilgirl since you have 1k watches; find a bestbuy girl to date. Maybe she will let you wear the "geek-squad" t shirt while you give her the business.

I threw it out yesterday that we should bring gunner off the bench for guest appearances, I was thoroughly ignored.
