Another penalty. Guh. And I can't really argue with it too much.

Salei is so useless. Unless you call turnovers and ill-timed penalties useful.

DAMN IT, SALEI. DAMN IT, OZZIE. EDIT: Changed direction, not as MUCH on Ozzie.

And THAT'S how you strike back.

Funny thing is that used to be all I drank until I got chastised in the Water Cooler for it. Pretty decent flow in this game. Even the officials are holding back from making a spectacle of themselves. Which is shocking, because Campbell and Bettman wouldn't even notice with them paying all their attention to Pittsburgh/Washington. Blargh, our PK still sucks. Ozzie screened to all hell. Nice shot.

Phew, takes a little pressure off my liver. Cracked open a Sam Adams Cherry Wheat here.

Welcome to the game, Ozzie.

So far tonight against the Isles... 8 shots, 3 goals against, for a .625 GAA in 21:21 of play. Brodeur is getting outplayed by Dwayne Roloson.

Lamoriello's to blame, but no one else - least of all the hockey media - will admit it. It's always "In Lou We Trust", but the man's been a disaster since the salary cap came into effect. Lou didn't make the right signings and threw all his money in the wrong direction (Rolston, Kovalchuk, etc...even Brodeur's making too much right now) and put together a roster that just doesn't work. And I don't buy it that it was the owner that wanted Kovalchuk signed - I think it was Lou's pride at stake, because that man's just as much of a narcissist as Brian Burke. Unless the Devils magically figure out how to score at least 4 goals a night (because Brodeur's GAA is just about at 3 right now and it's only that low because of a few shutouts), they're going to continue to tank, Lemaire will be fired and Lou will be behind the bench by the All Star break.

Okay, that's it for me. Time to get naked. (What? I need a shower...)

Aw f***, I missed it! My network crapped out! But apparently not wearing my Zata jersey helps things.

Maybe a few minutes after the Wings' first goal of the game?

And Luongo is good for five goals against in a deciding game this year.

One more positive...Big E continues to look so much better than he did earlier in the season.

Sammy tripped him, actually. O CAPTAIN MY CAPTAIN! And that's how you execute a PP.

Eww. I just made the mistake of going to NHL.com and was met with Pedostache immediately. Yuck.

I think I figured it out. Jimmy needs more deodorant.

Nucks must have just done something REALLY obvious just now then.

I'm sorry, but no matter how bad our defense is...Howard can't be consistently letting in 3-4 goals a game. That isn't going to win you many games in this league. From TSN: Howard is cold (1-2-0, 3.36, .870 in last 3 GPI). Ick.

Stream froze and I missed it. Whose fault was this one?

Go Fresco Style. A lot of Taco Bell's stuff ain't too bad for ya if you know what to look for. Yeesh, that sequence unnerved me a bit. Things are getting chippy.

Landed awkwardly on his wrist. Out for the game. May be off for x-rays.

Nice pass to no one, Nick...

Crap, only other Wings jerseys I have are Lilja and Osgood. Zata it is! Wow, another power blip? My job lost power today apparently too (I wasn't there) from about 2pm until just about 30 minutes ago.

Cleary molested again.
