D. Jones (1) scores at 16:56 of the 1st period, assisted by J. Liles (5) and M. Oliver (1) SOG are 9-4 in favor of the Avs.

Tie game.

Screw that, I wanna hear about how every night he had to hunt dinos to get his dinner! EDIT: Avs hold the SOG, 7-3 so far.

LOL good point. Probably Janik thought he could have a more permanent spot on the team if he fought, but that was like a chihuahua going up against a pit bull, just so mismatched.

Not sure why that fight was necessary, but if it made Janik and MacLeod feel better, so be it. 5 for fighting for both it looks like.

Wings to the PK. Stuart off for holding.

Franzen (2) scored at 02:34 assisted by The Todd (3).

FEED THE MULE!!! 0-1 WINGS!

Game 3 of the season is a go!

Here's to a Wings victory! 4-2 Wings over Avs!

Fortunately, he was okay but didn't take part in the race. Hamilton qualified 3rd early in the day (qualifying was postponed to the morning of the race due to heavy rains), but dropped to 8th on the grid because of a gearbox change. 4 cars crashed on the first lap (Petrov and Hulkenberg on the main straight, Massa and Liuzzi into T1), resulting in the only safety car session of the race. Kubica lost a rear wheel because a mechanic failed to properly tighten the locking nut, knocking him out of the race; near the end of the race, the same situation knocked out Rosberg, this time damaging the car in a crash, where as Kubica managed to pull it off the circuit under the safety car. Sutil then lubed up 130R about a dozen laps from the end of the race, spun in his own fluids, and managed, somehow, to make it to pit road without any further damage. Hamilton struggled to finish the race after losing 3rd gear past the mid-point of the race. The Stewards investigated both Petrov/Hulkenberg and Massa/Liuzzi incidents, and the only one penalized was Petrov, who was given a 5 grid place penalty at the Korean GP.
