No hamhuis at the rink as of yet.


in other 3rd 4th line news:
- Lapierre has been on for ONE goal-against this entire playoffs
- Hansen has had one game in which he's been a minus player.

they were both game 4 vs. Chi

- Lapierre has been on for ONE goal-against this entire playoffs

have you seeeeeeeeeeeen the man they call raveeeeeeeeeeeen lapierre

the power of positive thinking

Was there an extra feel for you knowing that your line was on the ice for the final minute of the game? Did you feel something would happen?

“I thought Jannik [Hansen] and I thought [Maxim] Lapierre had a great 60 minutes. Jannik third period was probably the best I’ve seen him play and Lapierre has been good this year. He was everywhere. Maxim had a few chances to bury it, but at the end of the day it was just one of those things where we kept saying to ourselves on the bench that it’s our line. I think Maxim might have said probably 15 times on the bench that ‘We are getting one tonight. We are getting one tonight. We are getting one tonight.’ Just thinking good thoughts and like I said there really wasn’t much for me to do, but just get open and get to the net. Obviously with Ryan Kesler’s great play and then Jannik with the pass and just getting it home

Farhan says they are skating as the 4th line?

edit: and Murph agrees. suggests Manny looks like it's a go for game 2.
I had a feeling they'd do it on home ice for that extra jolt.

AV said he'd like to get the 4th line out there a little more.

Murph saying his eye looks "more closed" today

Kuzma and Sekeres on radio said he did have that drainage procedure surgery ... one final surgery awaits malhotra and that has a 6 week recovery time ... apparently it can wait til offseason and there is no fear of perm damage in putting it off

Did Ballard play enough games in the regular season to get his name on the Cup, if we win it?

alll he has to do is play one game in the Final regardless of how many he played regular season. BUT this is WAY too early to even think that. I dont like these thoughts they are like stats useless until the season is over the goal is achieved.

It was more the fact that unless we get hit hard with injuries (please, no) that I don't like Ballard's chances of playing this series.
