I hear some howling from the NW part of the valley...

Ah-ha! The desert dogs scored!

1 to zero, dogs

If the world was perfect, it wouldn't be.

1-0

Winnik goal. Tanking is struggling

My body might be in Greece, but my mind and my heart is in Arizona. When the heck will I visit the Desert?

Who would have thought it

could be so much work!!

Did you catch that baseball game live stream on the 10th?

Yeah, I did

I enjoyed it, and after the 2nd inning I almost understood how scorings occured :p. Too bad other games weren’t streamed, but April is approaching…

Scored on a PP!!

I hate to break it to you guys, but building a 3-0 lead against Roberto Luongo isn’t usually the recommended tanking procedure.

Why not just ignore the tanking stuff, even if for one night, and enjoy rooting for your team to win? Trust me, it’s fun! :)

Same here!

Maybe they should have adopted Operation Tank a few weeks earlier as it seems to have the opposite effect.

“We’re going to be better,” Doan replied, before I even finished asking the question. “We are because we’ve got so much talent. We’ll figure this out. The next 13 games will be better. I guarantee it.”

A big key to turning things around, Doan said, is for every player to earn their spot in the lineup everyday. There should be no sense of entitlement in the room.

Um … I have a question for all the Coyotes fans.

Do bizarre things like that happen to your team often? Because that was really, really strange.

doesn't get much more bizarre then that......

usually, things like that go against us, NOT for us.

Desert Dogs – 4
’Nucks – ZERO

Poor 'Nucks

I feel bad for them, this really messes their chances of finishing 3rd in regulation, maybe even 4th

No worries, the Leafs have been beating to their own drum ever since the all star break. Their push for ninth place is almost intact.

But good to see the Coyotes pulling off a scoreline like this though. I know how much the boys needed a morale boost in such a difficult stretch of games the last month or so.

How have the ’Yotes been tonight? Their own good play (aside from that massive own goal blunder) or more Canuck down the toiletry for the beatdown?

Pretty good, imo.

Pressure all night at the ‘Nucks end, from the radio call I’m catching. It’s like a completely different Yotes team out there.

Bah, where was this in the last month! In any case, good to hear the ’Yotes have it in them to play a complete game…just need to build on this and finish strong.
