NBC is bumping the US-Canada hockey game on 2/21 to MSNBC so it can show ice dancing. And they were pretty unapologetic about it -- women watch the olympics and women like ice dancing. Guess I don't care. I have MSNBC. It's just sort of embarassing for the NHL's broadcast partner to throw them out on their ear.
-
Semin finished off the hat trick. Bad goaltending, then great saves, then more bad goaltending. This game is crazy.
-
Very entertaining OTT-WSH game tonight. 6-4 Ottawa in 3rd now. Not over by a long shot.
-
Poor Patrick Ewing. ESPN has a thing up to vote on the biggest posterization of all time. Scottie over Ewing, or MJ over Ewing. http://espn.go.com/sportsnation/dunks I was at the Scottie game, so I'm partial to that one.

I don't see it. Unless their motivation is to win 50 consecutive conference titles...
-
It was interesting to hear Kane talk about how they practice their breakaways on Niemi and how he stops almost all of them. I just like the way he moves in net better than Huet. But I'm still a little gunshy about giving him the lion's share of the starts because of the experience factor. There's only one way to get experience...

I think if you shuffled the deck and played last season again, the Cubs would win the division more times than not. Everything just went wrong. I think they'll be in a tight division race with St. Louis and probably end up with the WC. And here's the wishful thinking, eternal optimist in me, but I think the year we win it will come out of the blue. It won't be a 2008 where we dominate all year and roll through the playoffs.
-
Is he out with a Tiger? He's got plenty of time for it...
-
Apparently Madden is out for the weekend games. At least he'll have plenty of time to get healthy. And we have an extra forward right now anyway.
-
I see no reason why it shouldn't remain a wait and see situation for the foreseeable future. Huet and Khabi split time all last year. Huet has been the main guy most of this year, Niemi has looked good in small amounts of time, but pretty much every time they've looked to give him more time, he's struggled. Keep giving him opportunities, but don't commit to him in any sort of full-time capacity any time soon. I don't think they gave him a real chance to earn more playing time until that Vancouver game when he tanked. But he knows the pressure is on him. I don't want to crawl into his head, but perhaps if Q makes him the number one guy he'll relax and play even better.
-
Niemi was great last night. He had absolutely no chance on two of the goals and, as some noted, he was fantastic in the shootout. Q is bailed out a little this weekend since it's a back-to-back, so we won't really know what he's thinking. But I see no reason why Niemi shouldn't be the starter going forward.
-
WTG Niemi. Wow though. That was clearly late. He shouldn't have even taken that shot.
-
It needs to take more to get a PP in OT. That is ridiculous.
-
[expletive] those lucky bastards.
-
This game shouldn't be close.
-
Wow, that was lucky. Way to bury it though, Brouwer. But this is what Dallas gets for playing so boring and basically saying we can carry the puck in and do whatever we want in the offensive zone until we try to get to the middle of the ice. Bad bounces will happen. You make your good luck. Speaking of luck. Hahahahah Ribeiro!
-
Entertaining period, for no scoring...
-
Versteeg sure is pretty sometimes. What a save by Turco! Come on Buff, put some air under it!
-
Nice helmet, Huet. I hope we never see it again.
-
I appreciate that Foley calls out Kane, albeit mildly, when he makes no effort on the forecheck. Just there, he didn't even try to get that puck. That stuff drives me crazy...
-
Oh, and the refs strike again. What a weak dive by that bitch.
-
These refs are embarassing.
-
Pretty easy interference call there. Cash this in...
-
WTH are the Thrasher doing? I heard earlier that they had traded him for Lehtonen.
-
[-X I thought it was funny. It was.
