correction and fearless prediction
Game’s on 97.1 FM, Vandy basketball on 104.5
I have a good feeling about tonight. Don’t have the pregame jitters at all. (of course, we’ll probably lose now).
I think our power play does well again, and the good guys win 4-2.
I need a lively, informative game thread tonight fellas, I’ve been demoted to 4th line status AKA GameCast….

Should be fun tonight
Big crowd, lots of Olympic buzz, too. Wore my Swedish national jersey in honor of Hornqvist.
More fun than a stick to the face!

Excellent work, you predicted your own jinx! Have you considering a career in the expanding field of WITCHCRAFT?

I'm looking for an inspired game from Tootoo
He has been slowly amping up his energy and he just inked a new contract. It would be nice to see him make a big impact on this game.

crap
That means Belak.
Would you concur we won’t see Wilson as an emergency call-up?

There you go Chris
Although it was Shelley not Staubitz. I’ll give that one to Belak. He landed a nice uppercut.

I was just about to say good PK
but Arnott takes another penalty for the Preds. SJ os too good to give them a lot of chances on the PP.

Pretty good flow. Both teams generating some offense. Pretty chippy but no cheap hits so far. IMO J.P. has been the best Predator by far. Hmm, I wonder why that is?

Arnott is also playing pretty good, except for the penalty he took.

Philly tied with Minny, Flames up by 1 over TB
pretty much only significant games other than the Yotes getting smoked, right?

Staubitz is a P
What a lame play. Boarding and then another hit after the fact. Lets make this PP count.

looking at my box score
I can see why Staubitz scored. Tootoo, Jones, Smithson, Hamhuis and Klein on the ice. FAIL.

Thank goodness a fight broke out because SJ put it in the net.

would they have scored without the fight?
by Great Paperclip on Feb 6, 2010 9:29 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
The puck did go in the net.
But the ref waived it off because of the fight that was going on at the other end. Not sure if Rinne knew the play was gonna be stopped and gave up on it but it did get by him.

belak
This is why we have to keep him around. Some teams (SJ, DET) just deserve a good beating.

Yep he and Shelly again
Belak was defending Toots because he got thrown to the ice. Shelly jumped in to stop Belak. No real major punches thrown and then it fizzled out and the refs stepped in. Draw.

All in all he's played pretty well
I think he didn’t see the first goal as he didn’t even get a piece of it. He was kinda out of position on that last goal though. A shot went wide to the short side and caromed off the boards and right back out the other side to a Shark. He dove across and made a great save off the first shot but the rebound was poked by him.

6 and 4 shots on goal. Thats what I’m talkin’ about.

Even though he gave up 3 goal. This hurts.

3 stars for me
1. Nabokov
2. Heatley
3. Dumont or O’Reilly…
Honorable mentions to Marleau, Thornton and Ward…
