Steve Yzerman with Salma Hayek's face. Good enough for me.

Friday: Philadelphia @ New Jersey Atlanta @ Carolina Nashville @ Columbus Montreal @ Buffalo St Louis @ Detroit Vancouver @ Minnesota Edmonton @ Colorado San Jose @ Anaheim Saturday: Ottawa @ Boston Dallas @ Los Angeles Montreal @ Toronto Philadelphia @ NY Islanders Washington @ Florida Carolina @ Tampa Bay Chicago @ St Louis Edmonton @ Calgary Sunday: NY Rangers @ Pittsburgh Nashville @ Detroit Colorado @ Minnesota Boston @ Buffalo Columbus @ Chicago Dallas @ Anaheim Phoenix @ San Jose Calgary @ Vancouver

Why would I voter for Jimmy ? Rask's mask is much nicer.

It's okay they got suspended, but (*SUPRISE*) how some people react here on the board is just plain stupid. Roy Jr. made a mistake like many frustrated kids make now and then. But no, we haev to blame it on the fact we don't like his father, so the kid is automatically a criminal too. Give me a break..

No, it just means he has the flu. That's it.

Unfortunately... statistics don't mean anything in the playoffs...

Awesome ! As long as he has value (which he still has !), keep him around. He's no Lidstrom or Rafalski, but still a solid defenseman. Another year.... love it !

I think he looks cool with it. George Parros without the mustache is just another B-player..

Since it is Friday and I'm bored (at work of course) I thought it would be funny (yeah right...) to give every NHL-team a playoff slogan... based on Seinfeld... Anaheim Ducks "I was in the pool! I was in the pool!" Atlanta Thrashers "Just remember, it's not a lie if you believe it." Boston Bruins "Six years I've had this t-shirt. It's my best one. I call him Golden Boy." Buffalo Sabres "Stress is very damaging to the epidermis." Calgary Flames "This is the most public yet of my many humiliations." Carolina Hurricanes "I think I swallowed a fly! I swallowed a fly! What do I do? What can happen?" Chicago Blackhawks "You'll be out before we get the check!" Colorado Avalanche "Boy, I'm really starting to dislike the Drake. Hate the Drake!" (after their First round matchup with the Red Wings..) Columbus Blue Jackets "There's nothing holding me in place. I'm flipping, I'm flopping." Dallas Stars "I don't wanna be a cowboy!" Detroit Red Wings "It's a different world when you're with a cool guy." Edmonton Oilers "Order me a piece of cake. I'm gonna go throw up." Florida Panthers "We all want the hand. Hand is tough to get." Los Angeles Kings "Why did it all turn out like this for me? I had so much promise. I was personable. I was bright. Oh, maybe not academically speaking, but I was perceptive. I always know when someone's uncomfortable at a party. It all became very clear to me sitting out there today, that every decision I've ever made in my entire life has been wrong. My life is the complete opposite of everything I want it to be. Every instinct I have in every aspect of life, be it something to wear, something to eat... It's often wrong." Minnesota Wild "Poise counts!" Montreal Canadiens "Serenity now, insanity later." Nashville Predators "I'm open. There's just nothing in there." New Jersey Devils "Sometimes the road less travelled is less travelled for a reason." New York Islanders "What am I, a bulimic, chain-smoking stenographer from Long Island?" New York Rangers "You know what I like about Manhattan? No mosquitoes." Ottawa Senators "I feel like an out-of-work porn star." Philadelphia Flyers "It's lewd, lascivious, salacious, outrageous!" Phoenix Coyotes "We're making incredible time here." Pittsburgh Penguins "Give me a moan, something. I'd settle for a belch, for God's sake." San Jose Sharks "If I'm out on the street and it starts to go down, I don't back off until it's finished." St. Louis Blues "What are you looking at? You never seen a kid in a bubble before?" Tampa Bay Lightning "Smugness is not a good quality." Toronto Maple Leafs "Yada... yada... yada..." Vancouver Canucks "What are you saying?" "I'm not saying anything." "You're saying something." "What could I be saying?" "Well, you're not saying nothing. You must be saying something." "If I was saying something, I would've said it." "Why don't you say it?" "I said it." "What'd you say?" "Nothing." Washington Capitals "I think I've reached a point in my life where I can tell the difference between nougat and cookie."

Since Ozzie and Dom are in the race for the Jennings Trophy I have a question: Is winning this trophy based on the lowest GAA of one (or two combined) goaltender(s) or the absolute number of goals against for one team ? Because the total number of goals against is 164 (on March 21st), which is just 2 less than New Jersey and three less than San Jose. On the other hand, the GAA for the Red Wings is 2.19 while San Jose is second with 2.26, which is a wider margin than 2 goals in the absolute standings...

Kris Draper in an interview: And with Darren's help, we'll get that chicken! Andreas Lilja: I'm 33 years old; I haven't outgrown the problems of puberty, I'm already facing the problems of old age. I completely skipped healthy adulthood. I went from having orgasms immediately, to taking forever. You could do your taxes in the time it takes me to have an orgasm. I never had a normal... medium orgasm. Brett Lebda: I never had a really good pickle Nik Lidstrom: So, did you get your new plates? Tomas Holmstrom: Oh... yeah. I got my new plates. But they mixed them up. Somebody got mine and I got their vanity plates. Nik Lidstrom: What do they say? Tomas Holmstrom: Assman. Chris Osgood: Assman? Tomas Holmstrom: Yeah. Assman, Ozzie. I'm Tomas Holmstrom, the Assman! Chris Osgood: Who would order a license plate that says "Assman"? Nik Lidstrom: Maybe they're Eric Lindros'. Chris Osgood: It doesn't have to be someone who gets a lot of women. It could be just some guy with a big ass. Tomas Holmstrom: Yeah, or it could be a proctologist. Chris Osgood: Yeah. Proctologist. Nik Lidstrom: Come on! No doctor would put that on his car. Tomas Holmstrom: Have you ever met a proctologist? Well, they usually have a very good sense of humor. You meet a proctologist at a party, don't walk away. Plant yourself there, because you will hear the funniest stories you've ever heard. See, no one wants to admit to them that they stuck something up there. Never! It's always an accident. Every proctologist story ends in the same way: "It was a million to one shot, Doc. Million to one."

haha... very good !

hell no ! It's a lepra colony down there !

Yeah, but this doesn't answers my question: Is winning this trophy based on the lowest GAA of one (or two combined) goaltender(s) or the absolute number of goals against for one team ?

Exactly !

Friday: NY Islanders @ New Jersey NY Rangers @ Philadelphia Toronto @ Buffalo Washington @ Atlanta Minnesota @ Vancouver Anaheim @ San Jose Saturday: Colorado @ Edmonton Chicago @ Nashville Los Angeles @ Dallas Boston @ Montreal Toronto @ Ottawa Tampa Bay @ Florida Detroit @ Columbus New Jersey @ Pittsburgh Anaheim @ Phoenix Minnesota @ Calgary Sunday: St Louis @ Chicago NY Islanders @ Philadelphia

Go Wings ! Play like it's a playoff game, PLAY HARD !! 4-1.

cool !

Granted, it's a nice save, but in terms of reaction time and difficulty Caron's save against Philly two years was more impressive, imo.

DiPietro's season ends prematurely for second year in a row

You know this is going to end up in yet another goalie debate ?

What dazzles me is why Marty let go / lost his stick... It looks so weird given the fact that it's really Martin Brodeur under that mask...

In hindsight it is easy to justify an imaginative 15-year contract...

Really ?

Just bad luck. I've seen it happen to Brodeur, Roy, Hasek, Osgood, Fuhr, Joseph, Kolzig, Potvin... and probably a whole lot more.
