The shake up seems to the have helped as the Panthers have won 2 straight. Homlquist playing well for us making Manny Tradeable.

Woof!

For some reason Toskala will not heal, having played only 1 game in the last 7 days he still is a 97 CD (was only a 96 to begin with). With this in mind GM Drunk gave him another day off in the pressbox. Yann Danis took the reigns and led the Coyotes to a 6-3 victory over the Detroit Red Wings on Sunday.

Martin Rucinsky scored shorthanded with what is being called the greatest deke in hockey history. Captain Mats Sundin finally had a multi point game with 2 assists.

Filip Kuba is sidelined day-to-day after taking a brutal elbow from Jon Klemm (game misconduct) to the head that sent him awkwardly into the boards.

The Coyotes now fly to Canada's Capital to face the Senators on Monday.

The Predators got some solid goaltending today from Jocelyn Thibault, who was named the games first star, and beat the Dallas Stars 6-2. It was a well rounded effort again from the Preds who have now won five straight games.

Jaroslav Modry was sidelined day-to-day prior to this game and may return for the game against the Wings on Tuesday night.

I dont remember seeing checking from behind before.

Especially on a goalie??? What the hell kind of drugs is McCabe on?

Leafs edge out the Canes, 2-1.

Very even game. Shots were basically even, PP's were almost even. The game went to the third tied at one and Avery came through with the winning goal.

John Grahame was solid in his Leafs debut, against this former team no less. He earned the first star by stopping 26 shots.

Well thank you for the kind words Ravi, but I could have predicted this score.

The Oilers defence has been decimated by injury, and before this game Hamrlik (again) and Salvador were placed on the IR, Rachunek was an unhealthy 96 conditioning coming off an injury, and Jackman was down to 99 after playing over 30 minutes in relief the previous game. Thus the Oilers' lineup in this one consisted of Rivet/Berard, Babchuk/St. Jacques (both injury call-ups), and Rachunek/Jackman (neither of whom was 100%). As I predicted precisely in the game results thread yesterday, Rachunek was reinjured today (on his first shift, the second game in a row a blueliner has left the game on his first shift).

Also, Brodeur was a bit tired and I intended to start Lalime (although for whatever reason Brodeur started anyway--I am sure the result would have been similar either way).

Thus, the team that hit the ice today was hardly a healthy Oilers squad, and against the top team in the league there was little question as to the outcome.

Brutal weekend. Just brutal. I can't wait until I'm done school so I can finally sit down and get some serious things decisions with this team.
