- Friday night at Joe Louis Arena, San Jose scored the game-winning goal after the puck had rebounded off the protective netting. In a response, the National Hockey League reminded us all that at Joe Louis Arena, the protective netting, scoreboard, rafters, Sid Abel's banner, that big-ass flight of steps outside and Mickey Redmond's forehead are considered "in play"...
- During NBC's Flyers/Rangers game on Sunday, analyst extrordinaire Pierre Maguire commented that he "Helped make Chris Pronger" during both's time in Hartford. Call me crazy, but isn't that a bit like the 4th Hebrew in line saying that he "helped Moses make the Red Sea part"?
- While perusing the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, I found the following classified ad: "FOR SALE: 2 sets of red goal lights. Taken out of box and installed, but never used. Call JD at 622-BLUE if interested"...
- What happens in Pominville once the Sabres' season ends? Does everyone move away willingly, or is the town evacuated by force?
- So which team's fans would welcome losing more? Fans of Toronto, wanting the 1st pick overall, or fans of Eastern Conference teams looking for a first round match-up with the Southeast Division winner? I mean, what would you rather do? Finish 5th and play Ottawa, or finish 6th and play the 9th best team in the conference?
The town of Pominville is likely to be evacuated by force. Pierre Maguire's ego could probably singlehandedly force the residents into exile.
Nice one BF.
depending on the Sabres' playoff success or lack thereof, Pominville will be reduced to a shanty town or hooverville near the HSBC arena parking structure.
