Gameday - Sabres at Bruins
Nov 19, 2008 NHL
Buffalo travels to Boston to take on the Bruins tonight at 7pm, and will do so with a lineup that is shaken (not stirred) yet again. Tim Connolly is out again, with an ‘upper body musculoskeletal’ injury, which sounds more interesting than it really is. Kotalik is out as well, so Peters and Kaleta are both in.
The boys really need a win tonight, and it’ll be tough sledding against the Bruins, who are first in the Northeast division, and second overall in the conference. Tim Thomas has been playing very well for them in goal, with a sound defense in front. Buffalo needs to get out in front early and play their SYSTEM™. Make sure you Vote for Teppo before puck drop!
edit: Game is available online at Yahoo if you are out of market and don’t get it normally.

Random NHL Thoughts
Apr 14, 2008 NHL
I watched a fair bit of the games last night, except for the part of the Calgary/San Jose game where I fell asleep (stupid late games). The Rangers/Devils game helped me come to a decision on which team I want to win…the Devils, as I don’t ever want Sean Avery to win another game in his life. His little stick waving dance in front of Brodeur was very bush league. I was watching on CBC, and Ron MacLean and Kelly Hrudey pointed out a rule about inciting a penalty where the ref (who did warn Avery) could’ve given him a 10 minute misconduct. You also saw Chris Drury skate over to Avery and say something to him after the warning, maybe to tell him to cut that out? I’d love to know.
Calgary/San Jose was CRAZY. San Jose gets a PP 30 seconds in, and within minutes it’s 3-0 and Kipper is storming off the ice. Curtis Joseph came off the bench and slammed the door…and the momentum shifted back to Calgary after Cory Sarich slammed Patrick Marleau to the ice on a monster hit along the boards. Marleau had already been bloodied once by Dion Phaneuf so he was having a rough night. Brian Campbell was instrumental in the Calgary win, as he didn’t take anybody on the winning goal, just kinda standing between Owen Nolan and Nabokov, being a great screen for the Calgary vet.
Montreal and Boston had quite a goaltending duel, as Carey Price was great, Tim Thomas outdid him though. Martin Biron got his first playoff win to get Philly back into things there, and he is going to be a dad again today, congratulations Marty!
