Yeah, my point is that's a bad ask for an LA game if you are wanting to watch it at 7 here. No one starts a game at 6 pm local time on a weekday.

Coming home 3-1 sounds a lot better than 2-2. Get it done boys.

I think Lack probably gets a shot at his former team. Probably why Smtih has been given a couple maintenance days already. That coupled with the fact he has had 4 games worth of shots in the three actual games he has played.

I wish this wasn't such a hangup for the NHL. I can understand that it's a gate driven league, and so the game needs to start at a time that's most convenient for locals, but on the other hand, they're tuning out the Eastern part of North America by having games start at 7pm local time in the West.

Would be fantastic if Eastern Conference games had 7pm local start times, while Western Conference games had 6pm local start times.

Fantastic for me, that is.

Play the #1 against a division rival I say. Smith vs. Canucks, Lack can have Ottawa.

Most games are 10AM for me. 14 hours ahead of Calgary. Have to spend all day avoiding the scores and only get to join the post-game threads, unless it's a weekend game which means coffee, brunch and hockey.

Anyways, did anyone ever hear who it was that GG got to visit the Flames before the Ducks game? Would love to know. Whoever it was should be put on the payroll since the Flames broke the curse.

I think my wife hates it more then I do. no...... I KNOW she hates it more then I do.

He'd better be playing Saturday. I have birthday tickets with my oldest son and my girlfriend.
