I feel robbed. No Captain, no Great Dane, an emergency call up who didn't hit the ice until the second period (note to The Euge: spring for the chartered helicopter or hire faster limo drivers) and the rest of the team literally blowing chunks between shifts. I feel robbed.
Put the whole team together and this one isn't even close. Instead, we're faced with the infuriating bag of fail that is Leaf Nation gleefully smashing their keyboards with their faces and making grunting noises as if the leafs had any hope in hell of doing anything but sucking the balls off a syphilitic donkey. But hey, a hockey game was played, a score was kept, a result was determined and their team emerged the winner. Who am I to begrudge them their victory, Pyrrhic as it may be, or their heroes' lack of opposable thumbs?
But yeah...put the whole team together and we wax these asshats. See you again on the 16th, fuckoes.
The Dizzying Highs:
Self awareness is for losers: I realize I was a little hard on you Pascal, but your outstanding performance last night really proved something to me. Yep, that stolen point you earned us really made me realize something. Namely, you're very good at accepting constructive criticism. All in all, a very admirable trait.
I'm sorry. What part of "STFU!" did you not understand?: While the reason for bringing him here remains a bit of a mystery, Andy Sutton now has a toe hold on my Man Crush Mantle of Bobble Head Worship. Crushing Jamie Lundmark (twice) and flicking Phaneuf to the ice like the piece of chicken shit he is will do that. Not bad for a rental.
This just in, that Einstein dude was pretty smart: I'd like to congratulate Matt Cullen on being the most notable (and noticeable) Senator on the ice. This was, by far, the best game he's played as a Sen, regardless of the fact that he couldn't get on the stat sheet. Of course, seeing as he was the only guy in red not running at half speed (when they weren't running to the can in a comical "Musn't shit myself!" fashion), this is a rather relative assessment. But still! Good job.
Molly Maid ain't got nothin' on this guy: It's really none of my business Bryan, but if I could offer a suggestion, you might want to find the poor bastard charged with mucking out the bathroom stalls in the Sens locker room, and give that man a raise. And some Purell. And maybe a tetanus shot.
The Terrifying Lows:
Mark Bell and every single one of you idiot fucktards who cheered as Alfie lay concussed on ACC ice beg to differ:
“In the Olympics, you get a 10-minute misconduct and possibly kicked out (for a similar hit),” said Maple Leafs coach Ron Wilson. “Those are the hits that we’ve got to do a better job on, or have a penalty for a hit to the head.”
Seriously, somebody help me out here. Does this asswipe EVER stop whining??
Three shalt be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shalt be three: What exactly were you trying to say, Colton? You have three nipples? Three is the IQ of your average admirer? If you've going to show boat, make sure you did something worthy of said show boating. Coming off the bench to administer a series of vigorous head noogies to Matt Carkner's helmet at the very end of his shift is not one of those things. For the record, the card now reads Orr 2, Carks 1, 1 Slew Foot To Hide Colton Orr's Crushing Mommy Issues.
The Creamy Middle:
Losing to the leafs sucks. Flu, no flu, playoffs, regular season, preseason, whatever. It sucks. Always, and without exception. I would rather have booster cables attached to my scrotum while being water boarded by Dick Cheney than lose to the leafs and have to endure yet another round of tired, inchoate bleating from The Nation (read the comments...if you dare). That said, we'll be playing hockey on April 11th. They won't. Again. This makes me very happy in the pants.
Up Next:
If the cockroach imposed pay freeze weren't enough, this week's productivity throughout Cubicle Land is sure to nose dive as the boys embark on a mini-road trip through the Badlands starting Tuesday in Edmonton. Stupid time zones. (9:30pm EST, SportsNet with the local).
Behind Enemy Lines:
Eternal optimist and fellow Bloguineer, Low on Oil in da houzzzz... I'll take Two Teams Ass Raped by Dany Heatley for $1200, Alex.
Go Sens.

And those were the only ones i caught.
But seriously, with good effort for 60 minutes, good goaltending, getting past the flu and getting alfie foligno and...kuba the marshmellow back, who can play 3rd line from now on sutton backs karlsson better, we should absolutely take it to the leafs and out work and beat them in the last meeting of the season, and once those 3 things happen, the goals and wins will come.
3 things i didnt like about tonights game.
1:Alex kovalev...that is all.
2.Spezza's 5 blind passes. two of which on the pp he passed up the middle CLEARING THE ZONE...damn it.
3.Chris neil chirping to Orr when he wont ever fight him. Neil does stupid shit to rial people up all the time.
Cudos to him for K.O'ing that guy, and by the by, thats a clean hit and leaf nation should shut their face. One day we will do it to Kessel ala Mark Bell style and all of leaf nation will call it dirty.
Sutton is here to give us a bruiser past phillips and a-train.
A-train hits bigtime.
Phillips, plays physical but doesnt open ice it.
Carkner isnt strong enough of a skate to open ice hit.
Karlsson needs a physical line mate.
We also needed a huge dman to hit, battle, and clear the net. I lmao when i saw him smash that leaf into the net the second he touched the puck to get a whistle on the pk. Suttons more mobile than i expected as well.
