Huge blow to the Fins. Still think they'll come through. Selanne vs. Alfie one more time.
I think they'll be ok. They're merely replacing a great goaltender with another great goaltender. :fist:

I had mentioned to another hockey fan in my lab about setting up streaming on our projector in the break room today at noon. His response: "I'll bring the beer. I'm only slightly not serious."

Wonder what the deal with Martin is? They can't just be scratching him for Justin Faulk.

One report says Martin was 'in a cast after practice' yesterday. Not at all confirmed, even body part. #TeamUSA

Makeup calls are dispicable. Call the game, if one team is stupid more then let the penalties show that.

Illness being reported for Martin. Also he left practice yesterday with a wrist wrap. Tim Benz reported him wearing a cast.

When I think of great goalies, he doesn't come to mind. Doesn't mean he stinks or I don't like him.
