Coyotes are 5-2. The other two fans and I are pretty excited about this...

Why can't the Sharks have a decent start to a game? They are routinely getting outplayed and outscored in at least the first ten minutes of the game, and generally the whole first period. At least they are coming back.

Bruins have the same problem. When they lose they're out of it fast and fighting an uphill battle. Now they traded Kobasew and Lucic is out for a while

Maybe the trade and some young hungry blood can get them going. It better or it's going to be a long cold winter.

I think the wild will be done early this year. They look terrible so far.

It is for the Sharks as well. Nabokov has rarely looked sharp thus far this year.

Oh what a sweet victory last night... and that hit on Toews!

Panthers stink again, at least you can count on some things

Frickin' NHL Center Ice didn't carry the game last night

30 seconds into the game, and the Sharks give up a goal. Down 2-0, once again. That is not a recipe for success.

Even though it is still very early in the season, it is not looking like a good year. The landscape of Detroit sports teams is not looking good right now. I guess I have to hope the Spartan football team can continue their turnaround while I wait for Spartan basketball.

This is an amazing run by the yotes so far. Even with the prospect of bancruptcy by the franchise, the players are pulling things together. I would root for them but they're in the same division as my Kings.

Well, you got us last night!

I doubt that this team has enough firepower to really contend for an entire season, but it would sure be nice to get into the playoffs and see if we can get a little momentum built up for once.

A nice way for the Sharks to end up the road trip!

Between CBC, TSN and Center Ice, I have the Canucks season pretty much covered out here in the East. If they didn't have regional blackouts, I wouldn't even need center ice!

I'm still waiting for the Shirokov magic to happen. Grabner seems to be off to a steady start though since the callup.

...and now Luongo is out for at least a week with a cracked rib.

No kidding....

Last game with Detroit felt like the Chicago series all over again...

Why can't the Sharks start a game with any urgency? They got real lucky that good Nabby showed up last night, or they would have gotten crushed by the Kings. Still not a big fan of the shootout.

And just like that, back to Manitoba he goes...

And just like that, Grabner is injured too...

4-0 after 8 minutes of play? What's going on with the Canucks?

The Bruins finally won two in a row. Can I count that as a winning streak?

A very nice third period comeback by the Sharks.

Has anybody seen Sydney Crosby lately?

And after they were showing so much promise! But I am glad to see Luongo inbetween the pipes again.

This year's team is one of the most bi-polar I've seen.

He slashed a defenseman last night in the back of the legs.

The defenseman turned around and slashed him back.

Crosby then spent the next 40 minutes complaining to the ref.

Apply this to any Pens game and you'll know what he's up to.

...and in continuation of the bi-polar season, the 'Nucks throw an ass whoopin' on Colorado. Congrats to Henrik for his first Hat Trick.
