God, the Sharks :censored:ing SUCK. Up 4-2 with less than two minutes to go and they lose to Dallas in OT 5-4. They gave up THREE goals in less than five minutes. I'm sorry, people here were ripping on I think it was STLfanatic for saying how much Niemi sucks, but he was dead on. This guy actually almost makes me miss Nabby. The days of this team winning the presidents Trophy went out the window FAST.

The era of the game-changing goaltender is over. More than ever, goaltending is a function of defense, and Niemi excelled in a system where he wasn't asked to do much behind the league's best defense. Of course he's going to blow with a blueline that consists of Dan Boyle and assorted crap. I'm not sure what you guys thought you were getting.

♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫

Thanks for the gentle reminder that Vancouver is currently paying $10M this season for a function of defense.

The way Carey Price is playing now is making people feel like PG won his gamble in between the pipes. It's such a great thing because it helps to heal what was the most painful trade I have ever felt in my life. Still lots of pressure on Price. Not only does he have to play really strong to help the team, but he also needs to do it so that the GM doesn't end up looking like the biggest douche on the planet.

Ladd is their leading scorer, dillweed.

So, the leading scorer equals your captain? Talent doesn't make a captain, and just because he's the leading scorer doesn't mean he's captain material. Skilled yes, captain material. I don't know about.

10 minutes in, the Thrashers are up 3-0 on the Caps. Caps just pulled their goalie.

Talk about results. :P

EDIT: While I'm at it, this is a TERRIBLE game to watch, as far as uniforms are concerned. Thrashers are in that ugly red alternate, and the Caps are the Caps.

To add on to the terribleness of the game... If you're watching on NHL Network, you get the soothing sounds of Joe Beninatti <_<

You said he was "playing poorly" and "part of the problem"!

Well, he was considered one of the better character guys on the Hawks, and he's been sent to a team that's so far behind what the Hawks were doing that it can practically be considered a Peace Corps mission. I don't think he was a poor choice at all, but that shouldn't stop you from making another wholly uninformed rant.

I enjoy Joe B tyvm, the terribleness begins and ends with the play of the Washington Capitals. Little better in the 2nd but not nearly good enough.

The 8 game Regular Season losing streak to the Blackhawks is finally over! Jarome Iginla with a Hatty to boot, Big 2 points and now it's on to the East Coast for a 5 game roadie.
