NYR/NJ - Gaborik and Nash both a minus 2......with too many star players crapping the bed on a nightly basis, this Rangers team needs to get it together quickly. Not having Callahan in the line-up hurts the Rangers on the right side. Their special teams are garbage.....with all that skill they went 0-5 again....incredible. NJ plays their system with little star power compared to the NYR, but it goes to show you, Devils do all the small things, whereas the Rangers are really lacking the team concept.
Pens/NYI - Isles were 0-7 on the PP, Pens PK was the diff tonight. Pitt brought the physical aspect tonight and its something you have to do with this Isles team to be successful.
Leafs/Caps - Didnt want much of this one....Ovechkin once again was just terrible......man he looks soooo slow out there, a minus two and was a non-factor. Scrivens was solid in the Leafs goal.
Kings/Jackets - Didnt see a minute of this game.
Flames/Wings - Man, Calgary is very successful at the JLA, dont know what it is but the Flames play very well in Detroit. Wings without 3 d-men and it is starting to show big time! Flames got secondary scoring tonight and 2 timely PP goals.
Sabres/Sens - I thought Anderson fought the puck a bit tonight......but it was good enough for the win. Vets all got in on the scoring.......and they needed it considering their offensive production the last 2 games. Alfie, Phillips, Neil and Karlsson all scored....when they have all 4 lines rolling.....and at home too boot they are a tough team. Enroth settled down as he didnt allow a goal for the 2nd half of the game, but by then it was too late having given up 4 goals. The one glaring stat that stands out for me in this one......faceoffs.......Sens won 37 of 52 faceoffs.......that number is outstanding!
TB/Philly - Didnt see any of this one either, sorry.
Preds/Blues - Elliott pulled after allowing 4 goals on 11 shots........Perron/Backes/Oshie each a minus 2. Preds had the legs and on their 7th game on the road in 15 days......incredible. It should have been the opposite.
Panthers/Jets - Really thought the Jets looked flat for huge chunks of the game. Jets were off the 3 game roadie but had 3 days off.......I expect them to have more energy with the Leafs in town on Thursday. In all honesty, a pretty boring game with a ton of mistakes on both sides. Jets score in OT, after a horrible display on the PP, but Little scores a beauty top shelf!
