This guy is desperately trying to get Ty Conklin to say something inflammatory about the goalie situation in Detroit.  Some of Conk’s best saves were in that interview.

And Hossa with the empty-netter.  If he’d been hooked, would the refs have given him a penalty shot with no goalie?

That rates up there with one of the funniest mental images lately.  Speaking of mental image I gotta go back for that pic, then go to the bathroom.

I know when I want to drive my boyfriend a little bonkers, I can just sing O, Canada. For some reason it annoys the hell out him… lol.

Jenn you can come over and sing O Canada to me anytime like you’re north of the border, and I’ll go south of the border.

oh shhessh just cut it out already. <smacks own forehead>

Don’t look now gang, but Lils is en fuego, from the Globe and Mail:

Lilja now has four assists in his past three games after recording just one helper in his first 14 games of the season.

Looks like Mondays game against the’Nuck might be a little less stiff of a contest:

An injury to Roberto Luongo put a chill into the Vancouver Canucks’ hot streak.

The two-time Vezina Trophy finalist hurt his groin less than five minutes into Vancouver’s game against Pittsburgh on Saturday

Lils isn’t the only Wing on fire, check out Happy’s #‘s:

19g/p,  7g,  11a,  18pts,  + 1 in 12:31 TOI/g!!!!  Hossa leads with 24 pts, but plays 18:16 TOI/g

See what i mean?  With gems like that J.J. is prime candidate in a small group of “deepest thinkers” of The 19, Throw in AndrewinAnnArborinStockholminBerlininMoscowinSomeGirlsPants, and now we’ve got at least two.

Oh, also Chief, about 2 weeks ago I was fishing around for illegal music downloads on Limewire (note, not really of course, legally speaking) and somehow there seems to be a logical jump from Grank Funk (Railroad) to The Guess Who cause in a matter of minutes I had half a dozen tabs opened up, each one leading to another song to download - theoretically, had I actually been LImewiring illegal mp3 copies of songs.

Hossa is also +9.

If that happened, Hossa would be awarded an automatic goal.

From the comments on this thread, I guess I missed a pretty interesting game.

I took the night off to see one of the World’s finest fingerstyle guitarists live, and
of course put a couple of micro-brewery’s on overtime.

I taped 2 broadcasts of this game.  After I snooze thru the CBC tape, I expect to
see an entirely different game from the local Fox feed.

Checked the box score, make that scores.  Good to see the Wings come alive,
finally, 5 on 5, but IWO’s 3 game ave. of 22 SOG has taken a turn for the worst.

Kinda sad what is going on in the Great White North.  Looks like the only sure win
for a Canadian team is to play another Canadian team….or the Av’s.

My fingers are sore…..
