Ball and biscuit? (with thanks to the lyrics of John Anthony Gilles). A few years ago, I was able to get two different styles: the kind you're looking for and a smaller version, with suction cups, so you can use it in your car. In fact, they used to have a golf driver cover. That was from Olympia Merchandise (1-800-WINGS25).

From wikipedia dot com: "Nickname in the Czech Republic is Martin "The Hands" Havlat." Maybe they're the only parts of his body he hasn't hurt.

8 With their win today against Chicago, Detroit has now won Game 1 in 8 consecutive series.

From a network standpoint, NBC's choices for the "Isocam" worked out prefectly; with the games they turned in (3 total shots total with none by Kane, with each getting zero points and a -3 plus/minus), they can use the footage for the "Compulsory Figures" portion the next time figure skating is on.

What was Perry doing on that play; taking a rest for the overtime? And, for what it's worth, Mr. DS Cherry says that Perry reminds him of Cam Neely.

"Don't copy our five-on-threes."

A very timely, very good article, from today's Toronto Star: Not just good, he's Osgood.

"1961".

50 With last night's win versus Anaheim, Detroit posts their 50th win in a best-of-seven series, out of 86 best-of-seven series.

Great game, great finish to a great series. Finally, the dismantling of the ATTC (Anaheim Trolls Tent City).

10 With last night's win over Anaheim, Detroit will be in the Western Conference Final for the 10th time in Club history (8th time in the last 14 playoffs and 4th time this decade). 3 It will be the 3rd consecutive playoffs Detroit will be in the WCF.

The first departures from Anaheim, heading for Chicago:

Don't forget the spike today in the number of people at malls. Besides, why didn't their "better" goalie make that stop?

Headline from cbc dot ca: "HNIC has Game 7 between Ducks, Red Wings "

Game Notes, Game 7.

Meanwhile, NBC sits doing nothing until the weekend games come. Who on earth signed that deal? Oh yeah, Team Inspector Gadget. It's too bad the US doesn't have a major television network that will show weekday playoff games like the CBC does in Canada.
