Just like having Shanny with a broken foot; you gotta play him. Shanny didn't take off the skate for the x-ray and finished the game reasonably well, but I am actually talking about when he came back. Sure we lost to the Ducks but he was the most impressive Wing on the ice atleast watching from the seats. Mark my words: Bertuzzi will play an extremely important role in a deep playoff run. This might not be his series, but there will be a time when you will be very glad he is on the ice.

One bonus, if you will is that they got their cages rattled, and showed some grit... I ain't talking Ilya dropping gloves with Avery either ... I am talking about more than just Cleary's hit though. I think the Flames saw something that they didn't see much of in games one and two. Also, they outshot the Flames in another game. I know that any goal is a good goal in the Playoffs, but more chances in every game means something. Iggy, played his best game so far. If this is really his best, they still need something else, a couple something elses if they are going to win this series.

I think the implication is that, unless there is a specific reason for him not to start (i.e. injury) that he will. Not starting would mean putting in a player with experience in -- sure -- no rust is too much rust in a game seven dontcha think. Anyway, my two centavos, and I think it is a question worth asking. I hope we don't have to see this as more than a hypothetical.

My only concern is in the way the team broke down. They shouldn't have trouble beating this team, and I am sure the mistakes by players like Lids won't happen again, but the team really lost it in the third. They just failed as a team.

final minute and extra attacker

So, which is worse: Seeing your team cough up the puck like this, watching the worst period of hockey so far these playoffs, or, refs. that just don't know how to use their whistles?

I am getting sick...

They are rattled

Come on -- puck control

whistle sounded good that time

well atleast they killed it

I don't remember Bill this way, but I hope I can forget it.

Bull-furcken-s***

No way to be ready for the trolls.

Boating and Puerto Rice commercials with playoff hockey

that hurts

Man I am glad they stopped that fire alarm, finally

nice kill

looking good out there, stay alive

Ugly penalty

Lotta game left guys, lotta game

Well, we knew they were going to have to be down for atleast part of a game.

Oh, its on Markov, and it cost them

Man I can't believe the way he just dumped Draper into Mikka PP Detroit

I don't want to miss a thing -- Aerosmith
