    It is tough to watch. They are playing well but this is their best which barely holds an even game...no room to slip up or relax. They aren't driven like the Panthers. Best team will win.

    a minor miracle just occurred in Canada

    Fan but definitely no expert. I saw this as a close game. Bobrovsky was very tight in net so that is our biggest challenge as bringing the puck to the net was no problem. Shots were close. Our defense was a little too over packed playing ultra-safe which worked against us. Not the best but...

    Well...first game feeler??! Let's hope they learned something and go Bruce Lee on the Cats. Love the new kid Knies though...brilliant goal but always great energy.

    Sad news - Gordon Lightfoot passed yesterday.

    The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald gripped me in Grade 5 when I first heard it in class. Blown away as well. Funny that is the song my daughters all know and love him for too. Eerie classic.

    Broken throttle arm plastic bracket on my old Johnson. Wouldn't justify $55 for a NOS replacement. I made it instead. Works like the original and I can make it again if needed. Enjoy the fabrication porn or not!

    Straight up man! And too, Samsonov has turned a new page with his steady and stellar consistency and performance after the disaster of a first game. IMHO, keep Holl out of defensive like they did in the winning game and we are stacked.

    Sad news - Gordon Lightfoot passed yesterday.

    Like a lot of bands and artists, there is a time to let it go and let us remember the songs sung the way they were made. The loss of voice, tone, raspiness and new artist direction on classics is typically a no-go in my books. Example: always a Tragically Hip fan (especially after seeing them...
