Ottawa stops Chicago's winning streak by shutting down both Giroux and Couture. Blackhawks' dman are all fatigued, gladly taking a day off before battling the high-scoring Penguins.
Tim Thomas got his first start as a Jacket and was excellent in the 3-1 win while also receiving 1st Star. Sedin-Sharp-Thornton are really starting to click and it has taken us awhile but it looks like we finally have a solid 1st line. Plekanec chipped in on the PP which was nice but rumors are swirling that he might be on his way out of Columbus.
3 Stars
1 - Tim Thomas (CBJ)
2 - Joe Thornton (CBJ)
3 - Daniel Sedin (CBJ)
Massive win to take over the top spot in league standings. Gonchar was big in this one with 4 helpers and Skinner continued his hot start with another 2 goals.
wow, totally worked in that one, and just when I thought the team was coming around a bit. this was about the 20th time Pittsburgh and Buffalo have played this year, and I hope its the last for a while

Pretty crazy how many times we have played so far. Of the 18 games played 5 came against the Sabres and 4 against the Habs.
