Gotta respect Lilja getting in the way of the puck like that, even dropped a knee face first into one prior to stopping the Weber shot.

Absolutely. I love the way Lilja plays the game at this point in his career. I have to eat some crow about Lilja. I used to think he was a terrible waste of size, but not anymore. He sacrifices the body to block shots all the time. They really need what he brings.

And Hossa defends him? Awesome, but where the hell was ANYONE else that probably should have stepped up instead?

I'm feeling more and more confident about a Cup win with Hossa on the team. That guy is freaking HUNGRY.

It just kind of developed after the play. It wasn't like Hossa made a beeline for someone or anything. Franzen was having words with somebody too.

Me, too. I was mixed on Lilja and during the summer actually supported letting him go, but he's really one of the premier shot-blockers in the league. He's really stepped up this season and been great.
