if you've ever seen staal in a shootout, you know he was exactly where he should have been.

Ward activated from IR, hopefully he's fully recovered from the groin injury.http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=259428&lid=sublink01&lpos=headlines_nhl

That was some 02-03 shit right there. No wait, it was worse than the 02-03 shit.

I really enjoy David Amber's facing off. He did his Q&A with Eric Staal.http://sports.espn.go.com/nhl/columns/story?columnist=amber_david&id=3764185

Great interview
12/13/2008 1:03:01 PM
Ward, Gleason, and Seidenberg should all play tonight.

lameWilliams, wtf was that
12/13/2008 9:44:24 PM
they lost when they couldn't score on the 5 on 3 for 2 minutesgood to see Cam is back to 100%
12/13/2008 9:45:14 PM
I agree, 5 on 3 for 2 minutes killed them. I think new changes need to be on the powerplay, we need to run a box with a screener. I think it is the only way to change this. Staal looked out to lunch a few times on the side of the net. I think we should just screw things up on the power play lineup and throw Bayda, Walker and LaRose together and just see what happens, can't be much worse than what's happening right now.By the way does anyone thing Eaves in the Eric Staal Bobblehead commercial sounds almost southern? I found it kind of funny.
12/13/2008 9:59:13 PM
They waste the powerplays, it seems. They just do a lot of passing. I mean, wouldn't it be better to just take as many shots on goal as possible?[Edited on December 14, 2008 at 12:19 AM. Reason : typos..tired...sorry]
12/14/2008 12:14:40 AM
yea, they are gunshy, none really want to shoot or they are trying to be too cute with the puck. they just need to start putting the pressure on the goalie. but it's been like this for the past two years.
12/14/2008 12:17:40 AM
lots of shots =/ better chance of scoring
12/14/2008 2:53:48 AM
we move the puck so slowly on the PP that there are no decent shots to be foundi wish i could go back to the pittsburgh game so i could see how many blocked shots they had on the PPit had to be at least 15, just because we were trying to force shots through
12/14/2008 8:18:19 AM
was at the game last night at the garden...thought they played really well actually (NY didn't have their best game)...just needed to finish on the PP
12/14/2008 8:53:19 AM
12/14/2008 9:44:56 AM
^^ Agreed. What we are lacking, and have been lacking for some time, is creativity. I still believe that it stems from Laviolette's beat them through pure brute force system. It works well at even strength, and you look at last night and we were the better team at even strength, but on the powerplay and in the shootout you can clearly see the lack of vision. Francis is the man who can fix this, and he needs to aggressively get on it.

BOGO with Brandon Sutter @ Crabtree! Holla

12/14/2008 5:22:51 PM
That's a good point, because Lundqvist is pretty much unbeatable down low. You have to shoot high on him.
12/14/2008 5:24:12 PM
that's pretty much what Lundqvist does is take away nearly everything low.
12/14/2008 5:24:40 PM
We were watching it with some lifelong Ranger fans so we couldn't hate too bad on them but they told us it was over once we got to the shootout...and guess what? They were right.
12/14/2008 5:37:52 PM
I'm sure every Canes fan knew it was over at that point as well. We CANNOT score in the shootout.
12/14/2008 5:42:00 PM
Got my BOGO voucher for Tuesday. Anyone know if you can hit up champions club with these?
