And our Jesus really needs a hat trick. Would someone PLEASE get Shane Doan a hat trick? I have been to countless games where Shane will get two goals and he just can’t get that third one. He was close again tonight but he just can’t pull the trigger on that third goal. If I could give Shane Doan a hat trick, I totally would. That man deserves one!
I think our other players have found Jesus in the penalty box. They have been spending an awful lot of time in there. At one point we had two Czechs in there tonight. If Jesus isn’t in there, I am not sure why they all keep going in there. The only other option is candy. I didn’t see a hot girl in there so it must be Jesus or food.
Tonight’s game was disappointing but it had its moments. There were plenty of times I was sitting on the edge of my seat, grabbing the chair in front of me (good thing the guy sitting there relocated after the first). The boys could have played better in the 2nd but overall it seemed to be a good effort. There were a few players I wish would have had stronger games as they all but disappeared.
Thankfully this game Scottie’s girlfriend was not sitting in front of us. We were free to have our running player commentary and make fun of Scottie’s hair. And we didn’t have to watch him make goggly eyes at her before faceoffs. That was kind of awkward.
The best player on the ice continues to be Pru. He also had the crunch of the game. Go Pru!
Surprisingly I found my self cheering for Jovo at times. Well, just a couple of times. I can’t make that a habit. People will think I’ve become soft. I was so surprised. Jovo actually kept the puck in. I was truly amazed. I told him that earned him $10,000 of his six mil.
Yandle got some air tonight. He jumped to stop the puck and I don’t think I have ever seen a hockey player get that much height! Well, except Quick when he had to leapfrog over Scottie.
It was a disappointing loss, especially since it was to LA. I had commented after the Wings game to someone that Saturday was going to be a big game. I said that because LA is also hot right now and we always seem to be competing with them for last place. I thought it would be good to win this one as we will need as many division wins as possible and if we can prove we can beat the Red Wings (its about time), then we need to prove we can beat anyone. But you know what? We still play the Kings 4 more times this season and there is plenty of time for either team to implode and fade quickly. Hopefully that will not happen to the Coyotes because well, we need them to prove to the world we are not the joke they think we are.
Anyway… We are 6-3-0 right now. I will take that. We need to be more disciplined and stay out of the damn box. It’s going to be a long season but I still think we will make the playoffs. I think we are definitely headed in the right direction.
I need to go because my contact is killing me. Night readers!
