The Hawks made Ottawa look bad for extended periods on Sunday. Hopefully home ice will help the Sens put forth a better effort.

I'm not overly optimistic though.

Anaheim at St. Louis should be a good one.

Philly @ Tampa looks delicious. Take the over.

Same with Isles @ Colorado.

Oshie and Backes are both out and they've looked really sluggish - Ducks should win that game, imo

Noticed that too in my limited viewings of them. I wonder if Hitchcock's message is wearing thin. Hetends to have that problem after the first few years with a team.

Still think that team is too good to not compete with anyone. That being said, their goaltending is suspect at best, IMO. Allen is unproven and Elliott is... well Brian Elliott.

Actually, the flu bug has ravaged the locker room, that's probably a decent reason why they've looked that way

Game of the night - Arizona at Florida. They should be paying the fans to watch this one.

The Panthers are actually a fun team to watch - I like them and they're better than people think - imo they're better than the Coyotes, better goalie, better defense and I think their young offensive players should be able to step up sooner rather than later

Devils went down 1-0 right off the bat and it's been nothing but awful hockey since then by both teams. Hopefully they can get something going in the 3rd.

 

[Cobiemonster]

Marian Hossa is one point away from 1000

Blake Wheeler is all over the place tonight, guy is a player.

thank goodness, because if he was a fan it would just be awkward on the ice

Devils in the shootout

 

[Cobiemonster]

Devils win a shootout! Devils win a shootout!

 

[Nasty_Magician]

Devils finally break their 0-18 slide in the shootout, yes 0-18.

 

[Cobiemonster]

Scottie Upshall scores for the Panthers - 2-1 lead over the Coyotes in the third period

 

[Cobiemonster]

Congrats Marian Hossa!!! 1000 points!

 

[forty_three]

Awesome. Hossa has been one of my faves for a long time.

 

[mr.hockey4242]

Wild win the shootout 4-3.

That's the result I was looking for!

Hoss is just a class act, honestly. Pens fans made a big to-do about the whole Red Wings thing, and it felt good to win in his face of course, but I was really happy when he finally got his ring.
