Game Thread: NHL Games - 2-6-15

Dash, too bad you guys didn't hook up against the Pens before Malkin got back, but fear not, I heard that the lady who holds the deck of Tarot cards put the voodoo hoax on the Pens by drawing the Death card on the first pick for the visiting team. Good sign that a blanket will be thrown over the top two offensive threats. Go Flames!

It's been 10 years since the Flames have beaten the Penguins, that's long enough isn't it?!?

We've waited far too long for a behind the shed ass-whoopin'.

Four score and two lockouts ago, our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal, flightless birds notwithstanding.

Larsson had the blast from the point. Gomez made the pass to him. More than anyone else the kid (Larsson) has improved tremendously since the coaching change. He's like a new player.

Thanks for the correction: I'm not all that familiar with the Devils' line-up, & am trying to follow along with the announcers as best I can.

How about Johansen and Foligno both getting their 20th goal of the season for the Jackets tonight? Man, they land a top player in this year's draft and with Bjorkstrand looking very good in Dub, this team will bounce back in short order.

Did the Tabasco Kid and Elliott switch teams prior to tonight's game?

That's possible. I don't know who is wearing Tabasco's gear, but it certainly isn't Curtis.



Nick Foligno has reached the 20 goal mark for the first time in his career. Two on the night.

Jackets head into the locker room up 5-1 on the St Louis BlueZ



This can't be real.

You can't trade Boll, he just registered an assist on the Jackets 6th goal.

Leafs score on the PP as both Devils d men (Merrill & Fraser) assumed Kessels shot went in and let the puck sir there for Bozak to tap in.

PLAY TIL THE WHISTLE BOYS

Bozak re-directs a Phil Kessel slap shot to keep Toronto from being blanked tonight.

I liked that Perron guy better when he was languishing in Edmonton.

In fairness who doesn't languish in Edmonton

We can't trade him because he's possibly the least talented player in the league and signed through 2016 for nearly 2m per.



Well, as good as the Jackets have looked tonight, it just wouldn't be a Jackets game without someone going down the Tunnel and not coming back. Johansen fell on Murray. Murray left.

He just needs to wrap himself in bubble wrap until next year.

Leafs pull Reimer early (2:45 left), turn the puck over at the blue line and Jagr buries an empty netter 4-1 Devils.

Jagr now 1 goal behind Phil Esposito on the all-time goal list

Watching the Devils on GLC with the NJ announcers. - Also trying to keep an eye on my puppy at the same time.
