And the Oil are down 3-1 to the Wings at the end of the second.

Let's go rally caps!!!

Rally caps for teh winnah in overtime!!

 

The Oil went up five three on four unanswered goals in the third only to watch the Red Wings tie the game with five minutes left. A stoopid penalty by Kirk Maltby leads to a 4 on 3 after regulation, to which Jarret Stoll says 'stop this Chris Osgood stoopid wanker with all your teeth who eats yogurt when he's backing up' and goes forth to let a fairly innocent shot burn him for the win. (w00t) (w00t)

 

Shawn Horcoff ties an Oiler record for potting four assists in one period. Ryan Smyth managed to pass Paul Coffey for fifth in the career goals scored by an Edmonton player.

 

Boo Yak A Sha!!!!

W00T! Detroit lost all three games in Western Canada!

[mkreku]

I checked out Alfredssons projected numbers. According to those he would score 87 goals this season if he keeps up this pace. Naturally he wont, but still.. Going over 50 goals this season doesn't seem like an impossibility! One embarrassing fact about swedish players in the NHL is that no swedish player has ever scored more than 50 goals in one season! H

[Volourn]

And, the Rangers' fall continues!

[Delta Truth]

Well you should be happy the Rangers are even in first in their division at the moment because I don't know how long they can keep ahead of phily and Jersey,

[Volourn]

Rangers will likely finish second last in their division, and miss the play-offs.

So Kovalchuk gets two goals and three assists tonight. But what suprised me more is a Philly player had a breakaway and he caught up and made a beautiful defensive play to prevent a shot. Talk about the maturation of a player.

 

And plese God let the Blackhawks be exhausted for tommorow nights game against the Oilers. Far too many years we were the first stop on opposing teams road trips. How are you liking them apples now, Calgary? "

[Delta Truth]

And Fedorov gets his first point hahaha

 

Anyone else surprised how well Dallas is doing I thought they would have taken a larger step backwards then this.

Them apples are surely rotten I tell you

I am guessing noone's upset over his contract issues anymore. I still think he's worth the hassle and the money. The russky is a hockey god!!1

Hey, I'm upset. Not only did I not pick Kovalchuk for that very reason, I also made a point out of laughing at everyone who did for the first week. Now, sadly, I sit in 5th and 11th place in my hockey pool

All these die hard leaf fans with no idea what good hockey really is! hehe

 

And finding a decent hockey pool is next to impossible!

Tell me about it. I've got another year minimum before I can move away. These leafs fans are crazy I tell you! Just because I walked down the sidewalk wearing a Canadiens jersey... "

[alanschu]

My favourite thing about Leafs' fans (not the mkreku kind...but "those" kind) is that they full on expect their team to win the cup, and are completely taken aback when they don't

[mkreku]

Speaking of the Leafs.. Fourth straight win tonight against Kovalch.. er.. Atlanta! THE CUP IS OURS!!1

 

Edmonton has 15 minutes left to score 4 quick ones to beat Chicago.

 

Oh, and Forsberg is going to turn Gagne into a trophy winner at the end of this year. The Maurice Richard Trophy! Mark my words.

Them Leafers are always planning the Stanley Cup parade every year

[Delta Truth]

Well Oilers fans your favorite blueliner has been traded to Florida

 

Alexei Semenov to the Florida Panthers Saturday in exchange for a conditional draft pick

Sportsnet

 

Well he was pretty crappy for you guys this year

In 11 games this season, Semenov is a minus-3 with two points (one goal, one assist) and 17 penalty minutes.

 

So you is gonna take his place ?- Perhaps you guys want Marchment back "

[alanschu]

No one "takes his place" as he wasn't really on the active roster.

 

Though I wouldn't be surprised to see Syvret stay up.

[Kor Qel Droma]

since there was not a lot going on this tonight in hockey ( except for Jagr adding six points in two games) here's something I shamelessly stole from another forum

http://www.justwide.com/files/wronggoal.wmv

[alanschu]

What the heck?

 

Did he forget that he was playing defense? It doesn't look like a simple swing, but indeed an intentional shot.

 

I think he even throws his arms up to celebrate for like a millisecond.

[Kor Qel Droma]

that kind of reminds me of that one Oiler game a few years back where Janne Niinimaa took a shot on his own net

[Hurlshort]

Maybe he was aiming for the boards? Pretty odd...maybe he's also just throwing his arms up in anger? I wish we could understand the announcer.

[mkreku]

That footage is actually from a game between Denmark and Japan. The guy scoring the goal on his own goalie is from Japan and he actually did think he had scored a game winning goal or something, before he realized he had scored on his own goalie. It's been in the sports news in Sweden a couple of years (months? can't remember) ago. It's hilarious. The japanese player said he had never had as many journalists showing interest in him before..

Today I recieved my Stan Mikita Blackhawks jersey. My hands were shaking as I took it out of the package
