NHL really is a bunch of idiots they have 3 games tomorrow, a weekend. So what do they do? Put 2 of the games on at the same time. Brilliant!
Drove to Brandon to watch the Lightning practice (props to the arena being booked for some butt rock show tonight) and stayed to catch a little of the Devils practice too. Lightning were definitely relaxed out there, lots of laughing and smiles (Girardi getting razzed after taking a puck to the "upper thigh" was a highlight) while the Devils were in super serious mode. Can't wait for tomorrow and if I get hit by a puck I promise not to sue anyone.
It would be pretty neat of the Preds to score a Big Mac goal (an actual fan promo) against The Hamburglar tonight. That would be a goal within the last five minutes of the second period.
this game is looking a lot like how I assumed the entire series would go. Lot of dirty bullshit / violence on both sides.
Scott Hartnell in the lineup tonight, because I don’t know. The fourth line could use some prayers right now.
He’s had a fine season, but the Avs bring the speed. He and Fisher on the same line against the Avs seems like an impending disaster, imo.
