The Habs break out of their mini-slump with a big game from the 2nd and 3rd lines. Malone pots 2 goals and Selanne has a big 4pt night with 2g and 2a. It is against FLA but this is at least a good sign that we are going in the right direction. 1st line craps the bed for about the 4th game in a row; we like the secondary scoring but we need the 1st line to be firing on all cylinders for us to do well.
Nittymaki remains undefeated as a Hab but I don't have the balls to play him against a top team...I just don't know what to do with the goalie situation.
Another big win for the Senators as we look to get back into the playoffs again this year.
its great to see as well as we have been forced to juggle our lines around the past 4 games. due to playing a ton of games in a row. many of the 4 games in 4 night variety the guys are just plain tired. In order to try rest them its forced some interesting line combos as guys bounce around between 3 lines in an effort to rest them.. unfortunetly pretty much all of them are under 100 so someone is always pushing 97 or 98.
Another game tonight to complete yet another 4 games in 4 nights stretch.... then 2 games off hopefully this will get guys back close to 100 again. not holding my breath though...
Patrick Lalime couldn't get it done against the Coyotes and was out-duelled by Dwayne Roloson (not exactly the battle of the heavy-weights here!). We drop a 3-2 OT decision.
In the AHL we win again, and somehow the "unknown player" snuck into the line-up. Not too sure what happened there as I try to be diligent with making sure to fill all of the spots...
Well another underwhelming performance, but we find away to eek out the win and avoid falling to 7th in the conference. Still the team is struggling pretty bad and it may be time to pull the plug.
