Malkin says: "Yes, I'm back!"
Eric Godard is out!
Brooks Orpic @ $3.75 talks big but will play a little lighter!
Sent their scorer, Chris Conner, back to the baby Pens!
Sidney is sleeping...getting rested up for the Olympics!
The Pens like us when we are hurting and disorganized not stacked and rolling!
Marc-Andre Fleury will be Brian Elliott's next victim!
There shall be some "Home Calls" but they are not insurmountable for our team on this run!
The "Igloo" is a great place to play/watch a hockey game!

We are what we are!
We are what we are...with the exception of the Washington Capitals we should kick the tar out of everyone else in the Eastern Conference and that includes you, you Pittsburgh Penguins!!
Martin Brodeur, stole a goal from Milan then looked only ordinary for three goals...still handles the puck beautifully!
Lou Lamoriello, don't call it a concussion, call it a mild head injury and the New Jersey Devils are cooked with out Patrick Elias...they looked terrible!
I think we are the worst change on the fly team in the league and boy do they like to call us!
Only one "Straight One!" tonight committed by Carks no damage done!
Dean McAmmond looked old and slow but hey Dean ya can't play forever!
Fish had 4 good scoring chances tonight...1 blocked, 2 wide and 1 broken stick sand wedge...between him and Cheech they should have had about 6 goals...what a game Nick Foligno had!!
Alfie and Alexei...our leaders...Superb!
Brian Elliott just another night in the trench, shut out...excellent...just win baby!
Note: Our Brodeur doesn't move in the warm up either...cool!
Chris Kelly might be one of them "Masochists" cause he sure does like to take a hit while carrying the puck!
Enough! Let's go to Pittsburgh!

Marty Brodeur the Key!
Marty Brodeur, our great Canadian and Olympic Goal Keeper, is wearing down...getting tired and is having issues with his foot work, basically stumbling around in there so Alfie you know the drill "Keep'em down!" shoot low, on the ice even...we have all seen him when he starts to look at his feet!! Jason, you give him that "on the goal line, top corner job!"
Zubrus is back, all 6'5"/225lbs, playing with the "Jerk" Peters so expect some fire works!
#9; #19; #11
#26; #43; #27
#71; #12; #41
#73; #22; #25
On the surface this seems unfair to Fish/Nick but the fourth line needs Chris Neil, once #41 gets a shift to keep his feet warm Alfie and Alex should be double shifted with Fish every third cycle...Foligno will think he's died and gone to heaven!
Remember on paper these guys are so bad they are good...very good!

Anton is cool!
Anton is cool, his agent is not...Bryan is cool, the Sens fans are not!
The "Slippery" Agent (Jay Grossman) always wants to get it to free agency or July 1st!
Anton wants to stay but has already taken one hometown discount for the last 3 years! Good reporting by the Cross Bar we want to see more of that in the future!
Bryan Murray knows from experience that it does nobody any good to bid against yourself.
As we said as much as a year ago, it's 4 mill for 4 years or 3.7 mill for 5 years.
Forget Kuba this brings him in line with Chris Phillips, who will be facing similar numbers next year.
The heart and the engine in this machine are superb but there are a lot miles on the body...Someone may offer him more but they will be over paying...Note: And they better have a Phillips for him to play with!!
I think he stays if he is as smart as I know he is!

Great show...six in row!
Alfie...clutch! Superb!
Brian Elliott...better...steady...just win baby!
Philly with the "Pup"...let's let Volchy take care of #17!
Shannon with his speed and covering Lucic, our best defencive forward today!
Carks look so different...confident, playing with Pic...#39 knows where to go and that he has to take care of him...
Picard in the Neutral Zone is still our best D-man with the puck!
Jason...nice shot...the winner!
Coaching issues: #17, you have been beat wide a couple of times now you refuse to stand up...with your size and reach, stay up...so stand up!
The "Straight One"...a break out pass from around our own goal line straight up the ice that allows everyone on the other team to have a shot at the puck or our forward (receiver) resulting in a goal against or a "Dead" forward. Featured by both Carks and Philippé this afternoon so "Stop it!"
Brophy and the Tranna guys would give their left nut for Kovy so STFU!

The Bruins @ the Boston Garden! Afternoon Two!
About Game ten (10), Bryan Murray just visiting, let a sheet of paper slip from his clip board in the door of the Coach's Office. It contained the following numbers...
#9; #19; #11
#26; #43; #27
#71; #12; #25
#73; #22; #41
Well it's wrong, wrong headed and CiCi reverts to these lines every chance he gets!
Any coach, scout, manager or equipment man knows you don't change the forward lines on a 5 gamer...and especially to the old lines that were individually and collectively slumping.
Ya can tempt fate once too often...changing a D-man was/is a work in progress but this one could start a fight in the dressing room...players vs coaches...this is bad!
Remember this term...the "Domino Effect!"

The "Real" strategy meeting!
Eugene: "Bryan, you boys are so hot ya better watch that your ass doesn't catch on fire!"
Bryan: "Mr. Melnyk, I think we got us a chance here, right now, this year!"
Eugene: "Bryan, have you seen the parking lot, you can shoot a cannon around out there, we are bleedin' red, man!"
Bryan: "How about I spend a million and make you four...how about I spend two million and make you eight!"
Eugene: "Murray, you are a good man, but it's not there for us this year...talent or revenue wise...so keep your eye on the ball...we go deep this year, make some money, sell some season tickets and really roll the dice next year!
Bryan: "Yes Sir! You are the boss!"
