All I have to say about this game is: Brodie is the man.

Really excited about him going forward, very promising future ahead of him. You can just tell he understands the game so well for his age. The most promising thing i have noticed about him in the last few games is his defensive side of the game hasn't suffered one bit with the extended minutes he's been getting. You can even argue that its gotten better with bigger minutes. Very impressed.

If we played the Charlie Simmer "again" drinking game, we'd all be dead.

You have no idea what it takes and how much skill/tenacity/commitment/guts it takes to be a pro hockey player. Let us know when the search party comes back with your first clue.

Doesn't seem like they've iced the puck that much

Well if I'm paying a guy millions to play it I'd expect him to be able to pass the puck to one of his own players.

Backlund is a beast.

I've always thought he'd be this good.

Wow, a game thread with only 12 pages? Never thought I'd see that on CP.

You aren't paying any hockey players anything.

Blatant too many men on the ice...Marleau had the puck three strides before his guy got off the ice.
