It's what my rink got from the luck of the draw.

Every player on the roster went to a rink.

...and Andrei Loktionov is looking

Cheap shot late hit on Doughty by Erik Cole.....Doughty out with "upper body injury"

Cole should be suspended like Doan!

Blackhawks are doing OK, but they're winning too many games in shootouts....

...?

This is their first game that has gone to a shoutout this season, I believe.


The other ones just went to OT...and that was just 2 games. Hawks lost one and won one in those OT games...

But I grew up in Toronto

Got to it before Jonsei did.

You do know you have Colby Armstrong on your team right?

Some real sloppy playing by the Hawks...I suppose the bright side is that they are 5-4-1 despite having the most hectic opening schedule in the League so far...

Wow, what a mess in Jersey. Kovi a healthy scratch this weekend. MacLean looks to be on the chopping block. Interesting discussion on HNIC this Saturday.

Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo glad the Kings didn't sign this guy.

Lombardi is a pretty smart cookie.....no matter how hard ownership pushed to have him in L.A.....Lombardi would not deep six the Kings by signing away the future.

So, I see you have your excuse all lined up if the Kings lose, yes?



If he's that great, where was the Cup last year in LA...?

^ Probably way cheaper than the raping I need pay for tickets here.




Hawks are in town on the 21st. Catching that game with the wife...in the 220s (near center ice) @ $130USD per ticket plus shipping fee, etc. off of stubhub.com. Those were the cheapest and best I could find.

Seems we never do well before Halloween. But I guess it doesn't matter since we proved last year a team can take most of the season off, squeak into the playoffs on the last day (on a SO no less) and make it all the way to the Finals!

Yeah, just get in...obviously, home ice does help...but, it is less of a factor than back during the old rink days...
