Oh, well. We'll get it back. And we're still ahead. Keep fighting, boys.

Nice goal, but it's only because he gets 1% more ice time than Pavel. Not fair.

Frickin' Versus. Frickin' NHLnetwork. $50 to get to watch the games except on nights like tonight when they're on channels I don't get. I'll be lurking. Keep me informed. Go Wings.

Making me hungry for pastries. I don't know. It seems to me like with all the hand-wringing we're doing over not replacing Lids/Stu and all of the injury threads, it's just plain nice to chat about the good things we have going for us. With Z and Pasha leading the way, anything's at least possible. Maybe when we get all of the medical issues taken care of, we can see how this team really looks. Until then, at least we have Z and Pasha. <knock wood>

Oops. My bad. Ummmmmmmmm....................... Nystrom is unfinished business for having the last five letters in his last name in common with two guys that just retired, both of whom Tootoo would have been honoured to play with.

Wasn't this one carry-over from the last game? I believe that Dillon had asked Tootoo to dance at the end of Tootoo's shift and they never got to it. That would make this unfinished business. Regardless. I'd rather see a real fight than a staged one, but even a staged one is better than nothing as long as it's only occasional. If nothing else, we got some nice energy from it. Oh- and for the gals in the Hot Wings thread: Remember, ladies, I dibbsed him first.

Gentlemen, it is true that Hank has a teensyweensey bit of extra time during the regular season and a bit more during the playoffs. Please note, however, that Hank is not now as he always was. He used to be clean-shaven during the regular season and only grow a beard for the playoffs. Now he wears a beard year-round. Had he had a beard full-time during the length of his career, his ice time would be higher during the regular season also. Also, it was during his unbearded days that he had trouble with his wrist and back that kept him from playing. (He also was single when he had wrist and back troubles, but I'm sure that's a coincidence and it's actually the lack of the beard that had hindered him.) Quite simply, the more facial hair Z sprouts, the greater his ice time.

Does this mean that O'Halloran will waive off all of Brisebois' calls?

I do. The person below me has been to the southern hemisphere.

Cell phone, but I use the land line for long distance since it's free. The land line is also the number I give out so telemarketers don't get my cell. Most pleasant surprise: Brunner or Lashoff?

RTooDToo wins everything. Hopefully someone will tick off Brenden so we can see the Revenge of the Smith.

No kidding. I thought they could keep them pinned, but then I realized that it would take the whole front page. The person below me puts fruit on their cereal.

Once upon a yesteryear I was vegetarian, but that was decades ago. Not a chance in hades now. The person below me has found something odd whilst cleaning house. (I just found bananas.)

expired milk... after a huge swig the first Star Trek movie (this from a Trek fan) and... the Kardashian sisters moving to your town and becoming Jehovah's Witnesses (No offense intended to Jehovah's Witnesses. It's the Kardashians going door-to-door that would be annoying.)

Ok. That's one more point than I had thought we'd get an hour ago. Let's get another one.

Oh, sure, cast doubt on our high opinion of Z.

Oh, Abby...

If Cleary scores the next goal, I'll giggle until next Tuesday.

Mule has just been working on scoring telepathically. Must be working.

At least in St. Louis there was a big rack behind the bench that we could assume was distracting the players, and at least gave us some jocularity. Now there's only Hawks jerseys.

Looking at the positives from this period: The Hawks didn't score. um The Hawks didn't score. um... Jimmy didn't let in any goals. oh, this is hard... Did I mention that the Hawks didn't score? Bert's beard looked good. That's all I got. Oh, and the Hawks didn't score.

Last week. They played 20 minutes against Dallas, 20 against Columbus, and 20 against Minnesota.

That's ok, sugarpie. We can now blame you if we lose.
