There are rumblings out of Duckberg! Someone is not happy, news to follow!!!!

[flambers]

Another game another lose. NYR score zero goals. Go figure. If I was a betting GM I'd say the NYR will lose again tomorrow.

Well the trade block will be updated today. The rebuilding process has started.

243 BRUINS 3 DEVILS 5

Back to back wins for my upstart Devils!! Sorry Kris, I know you really wanted to kick our butts, maybe next week.

Gamestory coming later...Recchi is on fire!

[Radically Red]

Senators lose to the tough Jackets.

Not that we were suprised.
The Senators played backup goalie Numrinen again this game 2nd game in a row.

We were hoping he could steal a game for us. He did play pretty decent but it was not enough against a strong team like the Jackets.
But Turco needed a rest so we gambled and lost.

next up a game VS the Penquins This will be game number 4 in a string of 5 straight, and 5 in the past 6 days.

[MJK]

PANTHERS LOSE A HEARTBREAKER

Panthers lose yet again to a much better Hurricans team but kept both games decently close. Jokenin took advantage of being on the 3rd line today by notching a pair of goals.

In an attempt to get Martinek completely healthy, Panthers GM moved him to the 2nd line. This was obviously not enough as he was a -2 on the day. Martinek will find himself on the 3rd line paring next game against the struggling stars.

[Abstract]

Pop goes the win-streak.

Flames win, Flames win, Flames win!!!

After taking a thorough beating at the hands of the Nashville Predators the other night, the Calgary Flames musta been some ticked off.

Flames pound the Sharks into sushi with a 7-2 drubbing. Flames fired 34 shots on the Sharks keeper and only gave up 12 themselves. One must wonder if Irbe is the goalie of the future for the Flames but then again he;s a .800 sv pct.

Jarome Iginla and Steve Konowalchuk led the way with 3 points each. Jarome and Steve were also first and second stars in the game.
Players resting were Marco Sturm, Ken Klee, Scott Stevens and Martin Biron. thats taking four very important players out of our lineup, but it had to be done.

Flames are still looking to up grade and trade talks are in the works with a number of teams.

Lets hope the winning streak continues.

[looooob]

SABRES GO TO OT....AGAIN
Gerber comes up big in costly win

Giving starting goalie JS Giguere a much needed rest, backup Martin Gerber finally won a game for the Sabres. The Sabres went to OT for I believe the 6th straight time, edging out the Flyers. It was a big game for the Sabres top 5 unit of Palffy,Prospal,Isbister,Regehr and Niedermayer. The game was costly for Buffalo though as Steve Rucchin went down with a day to day injury. Rucchin had been sparking the Sabres 2nd line of late.

This leaves the Sabres (who have dealt Centres Drury,Hecht and Rupp in recent weeks) precious thin at Centre Ice. Josef Vasicek will move to the 2nd line, whereas Riku Hahl and Ryan vandenBussche will try and center the bottom 2 trios. The Sabres continue to look, non-desperately, for options at center ice.

Kim Johnsson remains pointless as a Sabre. Lubomir Visnosky is yet to make his Sabre debut

Boston (AP) - Hey Salo. YOU SUCK!

[Pointman]

Yeah, that Pens win is what I was talking about. Shots were 17-36 Caps, but Legace stepped in with 1st star performance and won a game by himself. Why Hawks goalie (who are both better than Legace) can never ever do it? Game story to follow.

St. Pete Times
Game Story

In what is becoming an all too familiar situation the Tampa Bay Lightning lost another game on Tuesday. It was their fourth loss in a row and the 12th on the season. Felix Potvin was able to somehow fool the coach and get himself the start. He then proceeded to let in five goals on only 14 shots. Unfortunately for the Lightning by the time Grahame came in to relieve Potvin it was already too late for the anemic Tampa offense to make a comeback.

GM Moon:

“It wasn’t a great game by Potvin but the team on a whole has to play much better defense. There have been too many occurances of lax play when some of the players are on the ice.”

The Lightning play tomorrow against the New York Rangers and hope that the line changes will result in a better effort.

[Pointman]

Well, back-to-back games with Flyers and Thrashers is not where Hawks were expected to pick up points. But at least newly acquired players are making immediate impact and Therien took a torch from Bulis on that one.

This time once again Hawks stormed out of the gate, scoring at 40 seconds into play. Newcomer Chris Therien set up Hawks leading scorer Espen Knutsen to open the score. Encouraged Hawks had a good 1st period, outshooting Thrashers 9-8. However, near the end of 1st stanze, Jordan Leopold put an unassisted marker to tie the game at 1. Second period saw Thrachers carrying the play with 10-6 shots, but Johnson allowed a goal only once.

In the 3rd a live show by Hawks PP begins as they allowed a shorthanded marker, falling below even mark on the PP. However, less than 2 minutes later Hawks PP scored as Hossa from Yachmenev and Therien notched his 2nd in as many games. After reading game report, Hawks GM failed to figure out who of Thrashers was in the box that time. Anyway, Hawks made it close 2-3 with 11 minutes to go. But Thrasher Adam Deadmarsh sealed the deal coming out of the penalty box and running away for a last goal of the night. Hawks don't have any time to think about this game as Oilers are coming on tomorrow.

SCREEEEETCH!

Wild Put the Brakes to Avs Streak


They may have won the game, however it came at a big price.

An already tired Minnesota Wild squad was impressive in a 6-2 win over the Avalanche, however the victory was bitter-sweet, as the Wild lost d-man Willie Mitchell for up to two weeks with a shoulder injury. In addition the Wild have at least 3 other players battling nagging injury, something that could eventually catch up with them.

However, despite concerns about be short-handed during one of the team’s busiest stretches, the Wild have to pleased with their win. Minnesota Wild limited the Avs, who had one nine straight coming into the game, to just 16 shots, and chased the red-hot Roman Turek from the nets.

Other positives on the night included the play of Andrew Brunette who notched 3 points and was named the game’s first star, and the debut of David Legwand who also put up 3 points. Other goal scorers for the Wild were Richard Zednik with his team leading 10th, Robert Reichel, Martin Lapointe, and Sami Kapanen.

However, concerns remained over the status of some key players. In addition to Mitchell, David Vyborny is still suffering from a number of nagging injuries and will likely be scratched from tomorrow’s game. Sami Kapanen also injured in the third. Although the injury was not serious the Wild may choose to hold Kapanen out of tomorrow’s matchup to allow the high scoring winger a chance to recover.

Tomorrow’s game is against a struggling San Jose club that got off to a quick start this season, but has fallen on hard times recently. Farhall warns that they are a dangerous club.

“The Sharks showed early this season that they were capable of knocking off good teams. They are a good team and due for a win”.

Garth Snow is expected to get the start.


Game Notes
-Newly signed veteran Chris Tamer impressed in his first game, logging increased minutes due to Matthis Ohlund being ejected from the game. Tamer was a +2 in 18 minutes of ice time
-The Wild powerplay was 3 for 9, after going 0 for 12 the previous two games.
-Jan Hrdina had 1 assist to extend his point scoring streak to 6 games.

RADEK-AL DEBUT
Oilers notch 5th win in last 6 and extend point streak to 6

The Oilers endured another cross continent flight, and came out flying as newly aquired Radek Dvorak wasted no time establishing himself as an Oiler by scoring 57 seconds into the game on an early Oiler powerplay. Dvorak playing his first game as an Oiler deflected a Jay Bouwmeester shot past Felix Potvin. The Lightning nodded the score at the 3:34 mark when Mike Johnson beat Jane Hurme with a wrister in the slot. The goals continued to come fast and furious though, as Scott Hannan put the Oilers up just 7 seconds later. Hannans shot from just over the centre red line handcuffed Felix Potvin "Tommy Salo" style and bounced over the cat and into the net. Just 35 seconds later a red hot J.P. Dumont intercepted a careless cross ice pass by Kiril Safronov and walked in alone beating a slow old looking Cat the the glove side. The Lightning did manage to strike one more time in the first as Bryan Smolinski tallied a powerplay marker making it 5 goals in the first 12:57 of the game.

The Oilers took control of the game in the second period as they managed three unanswered goals to take a commanding 6-2 lead. The first was Marian Hossa's 6th of the season and 4th in his last 3 games at the 3:31 mark when the slick Slovak finished off a nice passing play that involved Brian Leetch and Vincent LeCalvalier. 4 minutes and 8 seconds later Jason Spezza got off the schnide when he scored his 1st of the season. After the Lightning yanked Potvin, the Oilers struck replacement John Grahame just 29 seconds later when Lecalvalier took the puck behind the net from Hurme and rushed up the ice looking like Jean Bellivue and fed a perfect pass to Alex Frolov who beat the cold Lightning tender high blocker for his 6th of the season.

From that point on the Oilers put in in cruise control, possibly looking ahead to tommorrow's contest with the Hawks. The Lightning did manage an ealry third period goal by Brian Smolinski, but were thwarted on two power play chances and the game finished up 6-3.

Radek Dvorak was named first Star of the game with a goal, and two helpers giving him 17 points on the season. Lecavalier picked up two more assists giving him 4 in his two games as an Oiler. Jani Hurme picked up his second win in as many games for the Oilers turning aside 19 shots in a relatively stress free night for the Finnish net minder. Next up for the Oilers is a game against the struggling Hawks. GM Sylvanfan cautioned that it would be a difficult game because the Hawks are well overdue for a win. "Teams on long downslides are know to pull huge upsets to end the slide and tommorrow is no different. We need to ensure that the team is well prepared as we've already given away enough points this season. Despite what the records might suggest there are no easy games in this league."

[Fire]

After being down 3-0 after the first 2 periods the Predators decided to pick up the pace with 4 goals in the 3rd and another in OT to get the win. Lemieux led the way with a whopping 4 assists. Mario told me yesterday that the shape he is in he could surpass the 200 point mark this season.

Blues barely get by the Stars

The Blues defeated the Stars 3-2 on Tuesday night. The Blues were led by 2 newcomers, Greg Devries known for his force defensively popped in 2 goals and Mark PArrish scored his first in a Blues uniform, and added an assist.

The win was a costly one for the Blues as both Pothier and CPHL Defenceman of the year Nick Lidstrom went down with injuries. Pothier is not expected to miss any time, but Lidstrom could be out for over a week. This is really bad news as the Blues played their 2nd game out of 7 games in 7 nights. Alexei Semenov is still out for 4-6 weeks, so expect Darrel Scoville to be called up from the farm for the game tommorow night against the red hot Avalanche.

Yup, this times Hawks are coimng out flying, outshooting opponent's in 1st (11-5 Flyers and 9-8 Thrashers, no less), scoring first goal of the night and all.. But then Hawks tend to slow down and let opponent grab the game. Hawks are very likely to take a lead (coz so they did with Flyers and Thrashers), so Oilers should be ready to battle back (frankly, it won't be too hard :( )

KINGS 1 ISLANDERS 3

CLOUTIER'S FLOP COSTS KINGS

One day after posting a brilliant 4-0 shutout Dan Cloutier and the LA Kings have fallen 3-1 at the hands of the New York Islanders, despite outshooting the opposition 31-19.

Mike Leclerc opened the scoring for LA on the powerplay, extending his personal point streak to five games. Unfortunately two late goals by the Isles saw the Kings in the hole heading into the first intermission.

The Kings outshot NYI 11-3 in the second period, only to be stymied by Dwayne Roloson. A late tally by New York in the third ensured the victory for the home team.

Dan Cloutier's play was uninspired and at times he looked tired despite having the weekend off. In game two of the home-and-home tomorrow it is expected that Mika Noronen will man the LA net.

Manchester silenced the Sound Tigers 5-1 in AHL action.

BROADSTREET BROADCAST

Weekes once again weak

By Heywood Jablome

It yet another display of his lack of desire to perform Kevin Weekes layed another egg. Letting yet another game slip through his five hole. Comments were short from the Flyers team, most of the players still trying to figure out what kind of instructions coach Cosmic was telling them.

In roster news rookie defenceman Tomas Pock was assigned to the AHL Phantoms after the game this evening, apparently there was a problem with the number of defenceman available to the Phantoms, and Pock can clear waivers. Flyers GM Dan Lemmon steered clear of the media today, rumor has it he's dealing with a bout of severe depression and is expected to stay out of the public eye for the next few days. Coach Cosmic Stan however was available for comment. When asked why he started Kevin Weekes after such poor starts over the last few games Stan replied with "Pulling your leg, the couplers coupling went off the ladder!" He then squinted into the crowd and jumped off the stage running to one member of the media with a camera, grabbed him around the collar and demanded to know "the total energy made up of indistinguishable energy elements." He then ran back to the podium, softly spoke into the microphone that "Time is not absolute and the error in the position of the box translates into an error in measuring the time." Stepped into a wagon and was pulled out of the press room.

When players were asked what the first game was like with Stan behind the bench, many of the players said they had a hard time concentrating as they were laughing so hard. Nick Shultz said that "I had no clue what he was talking about. Most of the game he was running back and forth behind the bench, and I mean like full tilt, yelling something about uncertainty principles and super glue." Steven Reinprecht observed that Stan kept grabbing him around the shoulders demanding that he "get him a wood daver". "I kept asking him, what the heck a wood daver is, and he'd just throw part of his broken radio at me."

The Flyers season continues along it's strange and "cosmic" path.

Stars Offence once again Struggles

Dallas,TX- The Dallas Stars once again dropped a close decision 3-2 to the St.Louis Blues. The offence continued to struggled and was unable to generate chances all night. The Stars managed an embarrasing 19 shots on goalie Curtis Joseph.

The first period was dominated by the Blues however the Stars managed to escape the period tied 1-1. Greg DeVries started the scoring when he tallied his first off the season shorthanded. A few moments later Jason Wiemer who has been the hottest Star scored his 2nd goal of the season. He also extending his point scoring streak to 6 games. The goal came on the PP with Chris Nielson and recently called up Sandy McCarthy drawing the assists. Osgood was the busier of the two goalies as he faced 13 shots while Joseph faced 4 shots in the period. In the second period the blues quickly got the lead back with Parrish scoring on the PP. Jaroslav Bednar tied the game up in scoring his 6th goal of the season. However DeVries put the Blues ahead for good as he potted his second goal of the night to finish off the scoring. Neither team could manage anything in the third period and the Blues got the victory.

The Stars will face the Detroit Red Wings tomorrow night. It is speculated that Ryan Miller will get his first start with the Stars to try and shake things up. Also Jarett Stoll will likely draw back into the lineup and he is healthy enough to play.
