  1. Abby scores on a great trailer snipe by Klimovich
  2. And rumour has it that JR/PA turned down Bonino from Pittsburgh after they got him to throw in for a JT deal
  3. I can't find the clip, but a few games ago, after the game that was streamed US nationally on TNT, Tocchet did about a 20 mins postgame with his old buddies. The subject if Hughes' ice time came up. Here's my (paraphrased) memory ... "I want him to come off after 55 to 65 seconds on the 1st Powerplay, but if there's puck control he'll stay out until there's a whistle or an uncontested D clear into our zone. Then 30 seconds after every shift he's giving me the look "Coach, I'm ready". The kid wants to play 40 minutes every game. I have a hard time managing him down below 30 let alone 22-24" So in our rush to condemn management, consider this ... Hughes might just be unmanageable. And as has been alluded to, he is such an effortless skater that his 30 minutes might equate to most D-men's 20 minutes
  4. Yeah - about 1/2 of my regular golfing buddies are Albertans
  5. Mostly from the prairies though. - BC'ers tend to gravitate to Palm Springs area
  6. Hmmm - do we really lead the league in multi - goal deficit come from behimd wins?
  7. Tokks double shifting Miller - the only one showing any jump tonight
  8. Ah - I wasn't sure who Nash was talking about - the video was showing Keller when he was speaking, so I assumed .......
  9. Lol - Arizona in a quandary. Over 5000 applications for next season ticket holders but NHL stats show that on any given game any evening between 10% and 15% of season ticket holders are no-shows. Coyotes don't want to see empty seats in such a small arena so are thinking of limiting season tickets to 3000 and get publicity from walk-up lines. But what if walk-ups stay away?
  10. Remember Richardson doing it to us a few years ago? Also Coyotes
  11. Lot at stake .. we're going for a 6th straight win, Arizona trying to earn a point in 7 straight games
  12. Has Podz had a shift this period? Yeah - just saw him. Kravs should have passed to him
  13. That was classic ... nobody trusts Myers. Petey felt he had to go over and help him out
  14. Didn't pick up who they're talking about on Coyotes but he's 9 for 9 in faceoffs
  15. Rick Nash is funny on the color commentary ... " it's pass, pass and shoot" repeat, repeat. He hasn't watched much Canucks hockey
  16. His son. Josh, just signed a pro contract fresh out of ASU (with the Coyotes)
  17. Doing quite well in the 'K' ... 18 and 23 in 57 games
