Oh and a fun aside, Boston is still on the hook for half his salary next season. How Green is any worse than the skating corpse of Jeff Hoggan is beyond me.

Panthers dominate the first two periods and carry a 3-0 lead into the third period, five goals in ten minutes later and the Hurricanes are on their way to a 6-4 victory.

I do not understand Dave Lewis. I do not understand Dave Lewis. I do not understand Dave Lewis. I do not understand Dave Lewis. I do not understand Dave Lewis. Chara - 29:31 (first game back from injury, too) Mara - 25:11 (probably his best game in a Bruins sweater) Stuart - 25:09 (played well) Alberts - 21:52 (played well) Lashoff - 10:49 (2 shifts in the third for a whopping 1:38, 0 minutes in OT) Jurcina - 9:10 (2 shifts in the third for 1:47, 0 minutes in OT) I completely understand the top four getting big time minutes, especially Alberts who has played very, very well of late. But I think we can figure out now why the Bruins have been having such a terrible time holding leads in the third: THEY'RE EXHAUSTED. How long until Lewis realizes that in order for the rookies to be able to help you out in game situations, THEY NEED TO PLAY IN THOSE SITUATIONS. There is no excuse for Phil Kessel having less playing time than Jeff Hoggan, there is no excuse for not using Kessel on the powerplay either, especially when his one strong suit right now is offense. The thing you need on the powerplay. The thing that Petr Tenkrat and his 4:20 of PP time (0 shots) is not supplying. Ugh. That said, it was at least an entertaining game. Miroslav Satan will likely get his next month as well. Don't shoot after the buzzer, chief. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fairtoflair7 0 Report post Posted January 12, 2007 Satan definitely knew what he was doing when he shot that puck at the buzzer. Overtime was great with the end-to-end rushes with Ricky D making a few unbelievable saves, the point blank one on Murray being the best by far. That one Tukoinen (sp) made in the 2nd with his glove was pretty sweet too. B's had the 1 goal lead 3 times and blew it each time. You are not going to win by doing that. Kozlov had a nice game for the Isles. He's shooting the puck a lot more and had lots of skill. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

the max 0 Report post Posted January 12, 2007 Bruins v. Rags starts the NHL on NBC tomorrow afternoon. Thomas will likely make the start for the Bruins, who really need to figure out how to play 60 minutes instead of the usual 45 as well as an excellent defensive showing. Big Z trailing Jagr is more comforting than Ol' Molasses Legs Hal Gill trying to and being embarrassed. No word on whether Jason York is well enough to make the start tomorrow, but I'm sure that no matter who starts on the third pairing they're not going to get more than 11 minutes.

Guest Report post Posted January 14, 2007 Fuku's from the E, LaBarbera can't make it through re-call waivers if he gets called up, Garon and Cloutier are on IR, Brust has a black eye that makes it so he can hardly see the puck. Fukufuji really sucks, so he won't be playing much more if it's preventable. It's getting the Kings closer to being able to pick Pat Kane, so I can't say I'm too angry about it. There should be a move made by the Kings before the All Star Game. Cloutier's out for the year, so that's another positive. Fact is, Garon's the only goalie that should be playing in the AHL that the Kings have right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe Columbus and St. Louis....anyone know of a listing of player contracts by year? An efficient way? It'd be cool to see who might be available as trade start going. Baron and I discussed this quite a bit the other night, as to whether a second-line centre or stay-at-home blueline should be atop Montreal's shopping list right now. *pulls into the lead after the 8-3 performance of yesterday.
