Good job boys! Wasn't expecting them to get a win tonight with all the injuries. Bad to see Ferland get hurt but we may have found a good line combination of Granlund/Hudler/Gaudreau. Of course Johnny Hockey was outstanding - amazing what sitting out a game can do.

Anyone know where to find attendance for this game? It seems NHL.com stopped posting attendance in their boxscores.

If I leave here tomorrow
Would you still remember me?
For I must be traveling on now
'Cause there's too many places I've got to see.

But if I stayed here with you, girl,
Things just couldn't be the same.
'Cause I'm as free as a bird now,
And this bird you can not change, oh, oh, oh, oh.
And this bird you can not change.
And this bird you can not change.
Lord knows I can't change.

Bye, bye, baby, it's been a sweet love, yeah,
Though this feeling I can't change.
But please don't take it so badly,
'Cause Lord knows I'm to blame.

But if I stayed here with you, girl,
Things just couldn't be the same.
'Cause I'm as free as a bird now,
And this bird you'll never change, oh, oh, oh, oh.
And this bird you cannot change.
And this bird you cannot change.
Lord knows, I can't change.
Lord, help me, I can't change.

Lord, I can't change.
Won't you fly high, free bird, yeah?

Who cares? Are you upset you didn't have tickets or why are you continually questioning the fans who were there or the ones who didn't show up?

Granlund had a solid game tonight, but I thought Ferland was a step above him until he got hurt. This isn't the first time Volchenkov has elbow someone (Marchand - last year) causing a concussion.

McGrattan will seeing the press box again unless they are forced to play because of injury. He didn't see any ice-time in the 3rd period from what I could tell.

I'd like to see the attendance, that's why I asked. If I didn't care I wouldn't have asked. We announced our first non sellout in over a decade last weekend, then we played the Habs which was obviously going to sell out.

Now I want to see if we go back to announcing less than a sellout, out of pure interest. Why the ****ing stupid response?

Because it's annoying as ####. Why to you care so much? Calling out fans for leaving early, not cheering to your standard etc., like you are some superfan it not needed.

Why do you care that he cares? You're being ridiculous.

But he's not. Every rink in Canada is the same. The fans come watch the game, cheer when there is a goal or fight and otherwise sit on their hands. I have no problem with fans watching the game and cheering when for good plays. To stand and yell or cheer for nothing is stupid.

It's just an opinion. I think our fan base has been pretty bad considering what we're accomplishing and how exciting the hockey is and the fact that we're a Canadian market.

If you have a counter point about our fans actually being better than what I'm describing than fine, that's what discussion boards are for, and I love debate.

But just saying my opinion is annoying and telling me to stop talking about it is just stupid.
