Why were Donovan and Strait playing? I watched the shootout.....damn Frans is money. Ha, now I forget, but two guys had the flu.

What to watch at 7? Jets or Isles? Fortunately, I had no choice but the Isles. I don't have Sunday Ticket and a bar was not an option for me last night. isles were dominant from beginning to end, but Mason was awesome last night -- either he made a great stop or we misfired on the last pass before the scoring oppy. We controlled the puck and controlled the play. Donovan actually played a solid game -- though I hope CdH & Hickey aren't out too long. One night of Donovan is ok but I don't want to see him on a regular basis. This team has gotten so much better in our own zone than last year. Another well earned two points.

Isles played a great game, but I think they got too cute with passing the puck instead of shooting it at least a half dozen times.
Leddy started the first playing something awful. Two glaring turnovers. Got his head out of his ass the rest of the game though.
That was a good game to watch. I'm glad I DVR'd it, only watched the first qurter of the Jest game, and then watched the full Isles game. Infinately better than watching a jets game. Honestly, I don't think I'll sit and watch a jets game the rest of the season. If it's on primetime, I might check in once in a while to see the score. Otherwise, I've got better shit to do at 1pm on Sundays.

BTW, why is Boomer such a dick? I know he's a Rags fan, and he's a bit of a mega-homer, but he was usually fair to the Isles. This morning he went off, calling the fans classless, etc. What was his problem?

Just saw that the Isles are number 1 in the espn and hockey news power rankings. What a difference one year can make....it gives me some hope as a Jets fan.

Another home and home series kicks off tonight. Isles have been on a tear, so I wouldn't be surprised to see a L.
this is a game they should probably win. This years Capitals are not the Captialls of recent years.

I think Boychuk might be getting a breather tonight.
Edit. He sat out yesterdays practice. My bad.

Not a bad first period. A few mistakes, but still have a 1 goal lead. Gotta keep the hammer down.

Back to the unimpressive, unaggressive penalty kill. Bunch of standing around, not attacking the guy with the puck.

What's up with the lousy PK?
i fucking hate PKs where a team just stands around. Drives me nuts. I've seen better aggressive PKilling on Ivy league teams.
