You called Sammy getting a goal, we should have assumed that Lilja (!) would get one too.  For the Poultry.

These 5-3s are killing us

They’ll usually kill any team.

Datsyuk and Hossa in a pile on the ice.  There’s your scary Halloween moment.  Yikes.

Ya know, I’d actually forgotten how much I hate the Ducks.  I really did.

Looking at Neidermeyer’s face right there reminded me of the look on his face after he and Pronger drove Homer’s face into the boards.

How does franchise killer Niedermayer skate away from that shaking his head?

I’ll have you know that our franchise-killer’s name is Pronger.  The shambles he left in Hartford, St. Louis, and Edmonton…  ?  I have nightmares.

I refer you to Zetterberg vs. the Pittsburgh Penguins circa 2008 Stanley Cup Finals for the exceptions.

That call on Niedermeyer was kinda weak,, but we’ll take it.

I think May is done for tonight, looked like a shoulder to the ribs.

Had a chance to go, have been many times now… but this tear out the carpet for the new carpet thing.  Been to the Tank many times now… like 5 I think. It’s always loud as sheiot there.

Voox… notice I said… usually kill ANY team. Not ours…. THE KILL WILL LIVE ON. “We mostly spoke Swedish”  as Hank said….
We’ve not been killed by them tonight… yet….

Now that Jiggy’s got three deflections from the right wing on his mind, you think the Wings will try it again only to fake it and pass to the left so that whoever’s there can slam it into an open net?

Just one more period to go against the Dicks. Hang in there Wings.

Kunitz interview on FSN:

Q: What do you think about three 5-on-3’s so far in this game?
A:  Well, this day in age the refs get them right so we just need to take advantage.

Riiiiiiiiiight.

To be honest, I’d just blow off tomorrow’s result.  It’s two teams that likely will meet later in the spring when it matters, but that moment is hardly now.  Let the Sharkies overblow tomorrow’s importance.

Jennifer, you are clearly not my wife… you like hockey, you’d let me blow off the carpet install another week (I’ve blown it off 2 weeks already…?)....

Am I the only one who thought maybe last year in the SCPO’s Murph sounded like he’d been into the boze a wee bit a few times at the end of a couple broadcasts?

BTW, as the proprietor of BoC I have very little access to any information, but one thing that I do know is that Brian Hayward writes his own “questions from the fans” and makes up fans’ names. 

When will Versus make him a full-timer and free me of this menace?!

John Keating just telling us that this date back in 1970, Gordie became the first player to record 1,000th assists.  Nice!

My challenge to this team is tonight and tomorrow, like back to back playoff games. Let’s see what’cha’ve got. Win’em both & sweep. I know it’s early and all but this is good shit here… 
B-e-e-r-r-u-n-. Ice cold Canadian coming up…..

It’s just you, MOWings.  He sounds like that most games…usually by the second intermission.  And he gets red and puffy. It’s pretty awesome.

Classic.  I have zero doubt that half the beat writers who do the Mail Sack do the same thing.
