I'm a big rathbone fan, but he was abysmal in the game i was at in calgary last week.

you're being too generous; clowns are at least trying to improve people's days while they're making asses of themselves.

that was the goal. the mullett arena jokes have been old for 3 months.

donald and barbara mullett, benefactors that have been hugely involved with the sun devils hockey program.

if they haven't talked extension, to me that means there's at least one offer on the table they'd be willing to take already and are waiting to see if they can get something better. gotta think they would have talked numbers with him if they didn't like the looks of the offers coming in.

they'll be crushed by the expectations and fall apart.

3 words: first round exit.

every single goalie currently in any league other than the nhl.

hopefully they show better than last night. have fun.

nice catch! I forgot that skudra was latvian -- I always look for the names ending in -s.

this is allvin's obsession. he's an overcooker. you don't need to worry there.

players need to see what the nhl is like to know in what ways they need to improve. a meaningless game in a meaningless season, with no potential downside because losing is ideal, and likely the last opportunity this season with demko coming back. the timing just makes sense with how well he's playing in abby, too. I bet my paycheque this has ian clark written all over it.

the most interesting thing there is that there wasn't a single euro goalie start prior to irbe in, what, '97? almost 30 straight years of exclusively north american 'tenders (granted, when did euro goalies first start coming over? '80s?). fascinating.

didn't pass the eye test in person either, unfortunately. rough night for jack. he seems to have more trouble corralling pucks/having pucks hop over his stick than any player I've ever seen.

if accurate, quinn needs to learn the definition of practicing hard.

he had a rough first period but was solid for the last 2. abby provided no run support tonight.

my head is in this gif. I'm famous.

speaking as someone presently at an abby canucks game, can we pretty please send spencer back up just for the night? he's broken.

something tells me you're the type to stalk your ex.

just picked up a couple front row tix for valentine's day in cowtown, just inside the blue line in the end abby shoots twice. ... that's romantic, right ...?

it's not in real time.

the whole reason chychrun wants out is to play for a competitive team. this ain't it. not the fit for either side.

was at the game tonight -- had an absolute blast. booing the tucson goalie everytime the puck got near him was awesome. I was behind the home net, so all 2nd period I was giving him the "iiiiiiii-vvaaaaaaan" mocking chant and bronx cheers when he made saves. I'm personally taking credit for breaking his brain. edit: also tried getting an "ar-turs si-lovs clap-clap clap-clap-clap" going in the third but it was only me.

did you see vinny going in with the crowd pump-up and the donald brashear fighting stance? it was awesome.
