Hurricanes @ Leafs - Jan. 21st, 7:30pm - SNO, TSN 1050

[ZBBM]

Bozak with a nice defensive play there with about 0:10 to go.

Millen says Kadri's been noticeably absent. He was on the ice with under a minute left in regulation.

Why is Johnson not our regular colour guy.  I think that would be awesome.  Millen is honestly terrible.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

A goal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[ZBBM]

well, J. Staal has been the best forward on either team tonight.

 

[L K]

Bozak with all kinds of awesome defense on that one.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

Seriously, kudos to all of us who watched that game in its entirety.

I actually hate Millen. He is the worst colour guy in the NHL. He always bad mouths Kadri and pumps Bozak's tires.

I honestly don't know how he has a job.

So best case scenario:

1 - 0 loss in a shootout where Reimer stops 42 shots.

So close.

 

[bustaheims]

Well, as hockey games go, this was one.

I guess the Leafs only get the 1st now.  No Aho.

 

[L K]

Reimer with 1 goal or less of goal support in 6 of his last 9 starts.

 

[Kin]

Objection, your honor.

Reimer with 1 goal or less of goal support in 6 of his last 9 starts.

Do you suppose the team might be throwing these games in support of Bernier?

Not to rain on the parade but wouldn't a better situation have been Lack getting blown out and not putting up a shutout.  We want Carolina to think they need Reimer, not that Lack is going to turn it around.

I thought about that angle.  I think Lou would handle it like this:

"Look Ron, I ain't going to lie to you.  We can't score goals.  Your goalie shutout a Junior team.  Now your team.  That team has powerhouse written all over it.  I mean you have Jeff Skinner on the third line."

 

[L K]

Reimer with 1 goal or less of goal support in 6 of his last 9 starts.

Do you suppose the team might be throwing these games in support of Bernier?

Probably.  I think it all stems from that confrontation between April Reimer and Elisha Phaneuf.

Or, should we do our best to hang on to a guy who's having a Vezina-convo season?  ???

Congratulations boys, you just became Special Prosecutors in the great state of Wisconsin.
