  1. I didn't know that about the league's protocols for concussion injuries. That's really smart.
  2. Havlat found somebody his own size!
  3. Not a whole lot going on so far. Versteeg looks fast out there.
  4. Marty is starting! Eat it Kronwall!
  5. No time to complain about Huet. We need him today.
  6. I don't remember hearing anything about Lidstrom being hurt. Great news. Havlat playing would be a boost, even if he doesn't contribute. And I really hope NBC shows the anthem. Should be a wild crowd today.
  7. Ah, back to the fighting in the NHL argument. Fighting has been part of the game forever. It's obviously sanctioned in the rules, so comparisons to other professional sports don't apply. It's obviously difficult if not impossible to quantify, but the players say that well-timed fights can turn around momentum in games and give their team energy. As for the goon fights, off faceoffs and what-not, it's part of the entertainment of regular-season NHL hockey. I go to a Blues game, I know I'm going to see a hockey game and likely Cam Janssen throwing down with someone. The crowds obviously love it. The place is just as loud as when goals are scored. I'm not going to apologize for liking to see the fights. Screw the casual fan. If you don't like it, go watch soccer. But don't come in here and try to change a sport that has been great for decades and you don't know [expletive] about.
  8. I don't know when his comments were, yesterday I guess, but Babcock calling Q a liar is out of line. Of course he's going to defend his players. I didn't hear what the question asked of Babcock was, but he should know better than to attack Q for that. Should be one hell of a game this afternoon.
  9. That's the obvious move and the right one. I think he's the only regular healthy scratch among the guys who were with the team most of the year. I mean forwards. I guess Johnson is still hanging out. And what ever happened to Brent Sopel? I'm fine with where he is, but is he still hurt?
  10. yah cus he'll give detroit like 12 minutes of pp time Haha, yeah. I'd love to see it, but that's not what they need.
  11. If Havlat is out, who steps into the lineup? Has to be Colin Fraser, I'd think. Obviously a huge loss.
  12. Haha, at least the press is trying. He's got a bit of a sheepish grin when he talks about it though.
  13. Q is awesome. Nik had a, uh, lower body injury. I thought he was going to say Havlat had a lower body injury too.
  14. Haha, Mora asked Bolland what is wrong with Havlat or Khabi. Total stonewall. Mora should've known better. Still funny though.
  15. That was so weird. Interference was almost the only penalty I'm sure it wasn't. I agree with whoever said earlier that it was a charge, not interference. I would be shocked if Havlat plays on Sunday.
  16. You make it hard to hate you.
  17. Yup. I've been tough on the guy, but that was awesome.
  18. S YES YES YE SYES YESYE YES!
  19. Well here's my non-expert diagnosis... Khabi had a high fever this morning + bronchitis the last few days... from what I know... Mr. Bulin now has pneumonia. Physical exertion while having bronchitis is asking for trouble. Alrighty. Eddie just said Huet did a good job. He didn't make a single tough save!
  20. That was a great half-inning of Cubs baseball. I turn back to Versus and see commercials for ExtenZe. Nice.
  21. Maybe I missed it. Did they say anything about a reason for Khabi being out? I just saw the crawl on Versus and it said Khabi was "pulled" after 2nd period.
  22. Yeah, I'll give him credit for trying. It's not that. I don't want him to be Ben Eager out there. But all the (unsuccessful) stickchecking gets old.
