Ongoing NHL Thread

IGGY!!!!!

"Does fighting still have a place in today's NHL? My answer is a qualified yes," Iginla wrote in this week's issue. "I temper my response because I don't know of any player who truly loves fighting. Ideally it would not be a part of the game. But the nature of our sport is such that fighting actually curtails many dirty plays that could result in injuries."

Finally nice to see someone other than a "goon" come out and say fighting is needed.

Michael Latta's first NHL goal ties it up in Detroit 3-3. Good game between Caps and Wings. I expect the Wings to win however.

Montreal's mayor will like that. Desharnais scores in the shootout to win for the Habs.

It's coming around. 8 posts hit in the last three OT/SO losses. But it's points in 4 straight. Keep digging, boys.

Congrats Habs. Good solid game.

Bruins with an uncharacteristic collapse in the 3rd in Ottawa.

Yeah, it's been a nice seesaw battle tonight - some really good hockey.

Caps will take the Metro lead if they can find their way to 2 points.

Wont Pitt still be in 1st since they won tonight?

Seidenberg elbows Bobby Ryan. No call. Ryan leaves the game.

Fast forward 1 minute and Iggy makes a pretty clean hit on Conacher that happens to catch a bit of his head and whistles go off. Make-up call bullshit. Why not just call the actual penalty.

BAHHH!!

At least the Sens stormed back with 4 unanswered to beat the Bruins 4-2.

Backstrom is a bawse. Caps win

Wooo! Backstrom is the only skater to cash in during the shootout. Caps win!

Caps lead the Metropolitan! (ugh, hate saying that division name)

Pens won earlier tonight, so still 2nd.

 

[hokiehi21]

Yeah Pens still in 1st by a point. Wow Carolina is in 3rd, the hell did they come from?

The South.

Wild squeak one out against the Panthers. Another two points. Huge.

Oh... right... I thought they weren't playing tonight. Man, I am f'ing not on my game today. Gotta get some rest and feel better.

I often wonder how many times Johan Franzen has used the line "so, you wanna find out why they call me the Mule?" on the ladies.
