Scatch!

Good to see the vet get one on the power play… good on him for hanging out just off the crease.

More fun than a stick to the face!

That power play looked strong. Several good chances although the goal came just after the penalty ended. On pace for 48 shots in the game!

That was great by Klein to fire that puck right where Scatchard could redirect it.

Very similar to Hornquist’s goal the other night.

Crap...

Bad break on the equalizer by Columbus. Hamhuis played Nash well, and the loose puck skipped over Leggy’s stick right into the slot. Ugh…

Whoa

Is Marty on fire these days or what? I was worried he wouldn’t get that one…

Dag Nabbit!

Good play by Torres to bank it off Rinne

Yup, you just stuff it in there and hope for the best. Just like Erat’s first goal the other night.

Wow what a goal by Arnott

Way to lift that backhander over Garon’s glove.

Trotz complained about the 1st period being wide open, but the 2nd may have been even more so!

Yikes!

You hate to see a guy jump off the bench and get a chance right away, but Rinne held onto that shot from Vorachek.

More fun than a stick to the face!

OK, that's enough of the breakaways already

Nash scored on his, Umberger denied… that’s enough for one night.

I was wrong but not by much, its 9-10-11

by jerseypredsfan on Dec 10, 2009 10:35 PM EST up reply actions  

Whoa...

That’s a big win in the shootout, Garon’s one of the best in it. On to write the recap!

Great, great game. Thats what I call weathering the storm.

Loved the shootout lineup, didn’t like 9-10-11 using the same moves. Goc and Erat got him but Leggy shouldn’t have tried it.

Loved Arnott’s backhand goal. Didn’t like CBJ dumping Smithson and then the Nash picked cherry.

Anyway, great, great win over teams around us in the standings.
