Cam Atkinson 19 seconds into it and then the Test Tube in the third. Atkinson with his second of the night to ice it with a minute to go.

But Bob absolutely stole the show. I usually don't like to be "that guy" but he just earned a Vezina nomination tonight, IMO.

Seriously, I've watched this game and studied goalies for a LOOOONG time. And when you look down the list of goalies who have had that "you're not gonna fucking beat me" swagger in big games, there are some biggies.

Bob had that tonight.

The Isles are getting ready for those injury riddled Penguins in Round 1. Stay injured my friends, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD STAY INJURED!!

The new page really broke that up.

Crosby's cleared to practice, brother!

Good for him & your team. I know my team will need a MIRACLE, however the Isles BELIEVE. A team can do AMAZING things when they BELIEVE.

The Penguins struggle with good team speed. I don't want to face the Isles.

Sorry if you didn't get the BELIEVE reference. It was taken from what Jim Schoenfeld said after the Volek game winner. He went on about how Al Arbour believes & that he instilled that belief in his team. Lord knows nobody else gave them a chance.

This will likely be the case in this series. Which is fine. A John Tavares led team with NOTHING to lose. Should be fun. At least I hope so.

Shame about the Jets missing the playoffs, but their management did very little to improve the team at the trade deadline. I'd be a little pissed this morning if I were a Jets fan.

Sven Baertschi is currently working on a 7 game point streak (final game of the season tonight against Chicago)

To be fair rolleyes, Ray Shero did take all the good pieces.

What a cruel fate it is, having to rely on Edmonton tonight.

Howson with one final chance to fuck the Jackets tonight.

This fits the Oilers mantra perfectly.

Wild looking to clinch a playoff spot tonight. 19-1-0 past 20 at home vs EDM

Edmonton showing they mean business by playing Khabibulin in net tonight.

Jarmo once again with a solid signing: Columbus Blue Jackets - Blue Jackets re-sign Cam Atkinson - Columbus Blue Jackets - News

So far he's got The Test Tube, Scut Farkas and now Cam for two more.

Those three contribute more than you ever see on the scoreboard.

Looks like Pominville needs more time to recover from that elbow to the face: Carson McMillan has been called up from Houston.

Kane that cabbie slapping punk bitch puts the Hawks up 1-0.

Damn, 2-0 Hawks. I know the Flames are terrible, but the Hawks are a damn good team. I really don't see anybody in the West beating them in a seven game series.
