I think, if anything, it’s matchups like these that show that the Versus network is content just giving the finger to the western half of the country. No, they won’t go further west than Chicago for their games, but they have no problem showing a completely unremarkable team in Buffalo. QUICK, name a skater on the Sabres! Ryan Miller is a goalie.
Of course, the slate of games on Tuesday isn’t all that inspiring. Still, it would be fun to watch the Sharks play the Leafs, right? I mean, you get to see one of the best teams out west, and you get to see someone beat the piss out of Toronto.
Sorry LD
DRINK
… if you can feel the general sense of ennui crushing the entire arena, then…. Ah screw it.
… If you’re upset that Derek Roy won’t be playing.
… If Nikolay Zherdev actually passes the puck. He has 2 assists on the season, and a creepy ass picture on the team website.
… If Oskars Bartulis’s hometown is mentioned, drink from a McDonald’s Shrek glass. Finish said drink if Shrek is mentioned. You see, Bartulis is from Ogre, Latvia.
The Drinking Player of the week is the oldest ever… Sean O’Donnell!
Let’s see what the ladies at Talk-Sports have to say about #6 up there:
– He is apparently quite articulate and he reads all the time. Wait, articulate? 4 syllables? Is this really Talk-Sports? /checks URL
– According to one person that allegedly went to high school with him, he is a really nice person. Put that on a resume, Sean.
– There is a lot of commentary about people trashing his now wife, Laura, but it’s all been deleted. Apparently she is also one of the nicest people ever, and totally was not a stripper. Also, she didn’t marry him for his money. I could have figured that out, because he is Sean F’ing O’Donnell.
