I'm just going to casually point out that CHI is down 1-0 to VAN.

[columbia]

And VAN just blew a great opportunity for another goal.

[SolidSnake]

Chicago gotta lose sometime

[llipgh2]

Don't look now, but the Canadiens are first in the Eastern Conference. 5 straight wins.

While I'm happy for MT, I prefer to have the Habs as doormats.

Wouldn't the Pens love to face Therrien in the playoffs?

No.

What a move by Hossa.
Hawks are on a mission from God.

absurd goal by datsuyk

Guys from Chicago on a mission from God?

[nocera]

What happened?

@Real_ESPNLeBrun: Hoping Hossa is ok. Scary to see him on the ice like that after hit he took last year.

@Real_ESPNLeBrun: My take: it's a head shot whether there was intent or not on the play.... We'll see how the league views it though ...

[Lt. Dish]

VAN-CHI OT now!!!

Early in the 3rd, Jannik Hansen gave Hossa a head shot under the guise of going for the puck; his arm was up. Hossa had to be helped off the ice.

CHI ties NHL record with opening with 16 straight without a regulation loss

[Tim Thomasen]

Wouldn't the Pens love to face Therrien in the playoffs?

No.

Oh well if we do. Can't expect the team come playoff time to face nobody but lower seed doormats throughout. If were truly a good team like people say we are, we should have no problem taking on one of the best in the east and beating them.

Wow. I thought ROOOOT had horrible shoot out camera views. Chicago Sports Net is on another planet. A birds eye view, and a goal judge type view so far thru 3 shots

Holy **** the canucks suck at the shootout

Listening to NYC radio post-mortem of the Rangers game. Complaints include:

1. Listless and horrible crowd
2. Inept PP that simply tossed the biscuit around, instead of shooting
3. Under performing star center
4. Frustration at being shutdown by a tight defensive scheme

Those Rangers fans must post here.

Is there a reason Rick Nash sat tonight?

[DudeMan2766]

Is there a reason Rick Nash sat tonight?

I read he had a nagging injury. Not sure what it was, so I'm not much help but it's not like he was scratched or anything

Elbow to the back of Hossa's head.

thank god we don't have the rangers problems or else people around here would have to be put on suicide watch

[Puffymuffin]

Canuck country out in full force I see to yell as loud as possible that the hit to the head of Hossa was not intentional. There's no way that was accidental unless you have no control of your body, didn't he also slash someone out of the game earlier this season?

[brwi]

Not intentional??? Canucks are delusional.

[Rylan]

I usually don't get involved with intentional/unintentional, but that looked deliberate to me. I get he was going to grab the puck, but that looked like too much force behind that hit to reasonably say that was accidental.

[columbia]

As far as intentional acts go, that hit seems to rate.
wtf?

[Idoit40fans]

Bulin appears to be back. Of course I started him against Quick, who I benched.

[canaan]

i didnt mind that hit as much as a lot of people. i think he put his hand up to grab for the puck that was in air and wasnt in control of himself. i dont mind the 2 minutes, but the hearing is a little excessive.
