Yeah, I know this game thread is a little late, but I was busy being angry and declaring people dead to me. You know how that goes. Besides, i've been busy fielding requests for interviews (not really) and invitations for therapy sessions (not really? Maybe.)
Tonight we head into game 1 of a 4 game roadtrip where we'll face the Minnesota Wild. Until recently the Wild have owned us. Last meeting we managed to come out with a win and hopefully we'll be catching Minnesota at the right time tonight. Special Teams will likely decide this game as Minnesota is really goo on the PP and the PK and we've be pretty terrible. Let's not let it cost us this one though okay?
Just a few notes since we're a little crunched for time.
-Kurt Sauer is out for 4 weeks, Stephen Goertzen called up from San Antonio Rampage to fill his spot.
-Tiki is out for at least a couple of weeks too. Garth Murray was here, but got reassigned back to SA and Daniel Winnik is back.
-Ilya Bryzgalov should be in net following that Dallas Shutout on Saturday.

The only way for Hale to get back in this game
short of scoring Panger, is to either knock Clusterfruck’s head off or fake an injury and stay off the ice… I’ll be good with either one

We need Jovo
to bark in his face to distract him and then DMo can just knock the stink right off that shit

If you whistle on a stage during any part of a production it's bad luck
unless, the script calls for it. But, if you stand on your head and sing “give my regards to broadway” it counteracts the whistle. Can we make a rule that whoever says the h-word needs to stand on their head and sing “Gretzky Rocks”?
Make 'em eat ice!
6-3
What happened to us?
Take care of the little things, and the big things will take care of themselves.
No, we just fell apart in the last couple minutes. Kill that power play beautifuly and went to hell for it.

that's it
Gretz needs a Herb Brooks moment

Seriously.
Positive points, but pretty pathetic goals against us. Our fault, most of them were way too easy.

If we make the playoffs we best hope we don’t get the WIld. They bought the Flames contract on us.
