    Gustav Nyquist

    If Nyquist wins the Hobey (which he is pretty much a lock for) I have a harder time believing he'll be playing college hockey next season. We'll have to wait and see. He will most likely get a shot at playing some AHL time this season but the wild card there is whether he's ready physically to play pro hockey. Most college kids need quite a bit of time to develop enough physically.

    PIM count towards most pools, so yes, this is an important point. Or maybe you don't have Crosby in your pool?

    Well if it makes you feel better I just gave you a + for this post.

    Gustav Nyquist

    Yes he is. Expect Brendan Smith to be added to the Griffs.

    I'd gladly join that movement. Game. Set. Match.

    I'm more happy about the 26 saves on 27 shots but I too was pumped when he stepped in for Zetterberg. I couldn't be more happy with tonight's game. (although I'm sad Dats didn't have yet another goal)

    Come now Gordie-- Yzerman is renown for his class. Crosby's had a spotted history at best when it comes to class. Whining, skipping Stanley Cup handshakes, dismissive comments about other players, etc. He's a great player, sure, but comparing him to Yzerman is laughable.

    Everyone looks classy on the ice compared to the 'tuzzi/Moore incident.

    Zetterberg passes Sid Abel on Wing's All-tme list

    That's a huge complement to Zetterberg-- Abel is a legend. Congrats Henrik.

    Weekend Picks

    Thank you all! *sniff* I'd like to thank my agent, my loving family and of course Satan. Oh and thanks to Dan for keeping me appraised of my score this weekend-- he must be the best Pens fan on the planet.

    anyone listening to kevin smith on nhl live

    Kevin Smith is a very funny guy but he's nothing if not a fan of making tasteless jokes.

    Teemu Selänne scored his 600th

    My thoughts exactly.

    3 min Long Fight in Devils-Blues Game

    When was the last time you watched a fight that lasted 3 frigging mins? This was Janssen vs. Leblond: lol wut? It's pretty damn impressive that those two could go toe to toe for that long.

    3/20 GDT: Red Wings 4 at Canucks 3 (OT)

    Man I wish Datsyuk would've played like this earlier in the season but it's beautiful seeing him play with passion and just have fun out there again.

    I hope so.

    Sitting Lebda

    I thought he had a really strong game as well. He cleared the net well, was great along the boards and made what was likely a goal saving skate save. He had one turn-over in the third but the entire team had more than 5 turn-overs in that period. I'd say Babs would be nuts to sit Ericsson against the Pens, but then again he sat him after a strong game last time too.

    Can't you make him disappear, Jedi?

    Am I the only one who finds this ridiculous ?

    Yeah Ozzy has some wins left in him but are the Wings in a position to flush even one game down the toilet while they try and coax him back into proper form?
