Damn Devils. They blow a 2-0 lead in the third period in about 1:20.

Maybe the Bruins can make it 2 in a row for the first time all season since they're playing Washington tonight, but then again Washington has been decent so far this season so it's more likely it'll be another blowout and we'll have to pull Thomas again.

Devils beat the Senators tonight 3-2. Parise with a goal and two assists. He is playing much better this year, which is good to see. Devils have the Leafs tonight, and the Devils have struggled on the road this year, so hopefully they can change that.

well, buffalo sabres are on a roll I see, as are the red wings, so it could be between the two. If I could pick a team, it would be the sharks, very aggresive and determined as witnessed last year. If any of those teams, or Lightning take the Stanley I would sport their avator for 5 months.

Devils once again have trouble scoring, but thanks to Brodeur defeat the Leafs 2-1. Langenbrunner scores again, as he has been on fire as of late.

sweet red wings/oilers game last night - first time I sat through a full game in the past couple months (only 1 tv in thee house and others). Alot of shots on net by the wings but Roloson was on fire, like the dives. Oilers win 4-3.

They are fucking scary, agreed. Really don't see how it can be anything but a Sabres/Ducks Stanley Cup Final at this point.

^ Yeah Fernandez has not played well as of late, plus Gaborik has been out. I think they will be fine, and still have a shot to win their division. If not they still should make the playoffs.

Don't get your hopes up for playoff match-ups just yet, cause the "new NHL" is pretty unpredictable. As evidenced by last year's playoffs, "hardworking" or "gritty" teams are sometimes able to wear down speedy/skilled teams over the course of a best-of-seven series. (ie. the Edmonton Oilers marching to the Cup Finals)

Do you think he's got enough gas left in his tank to pass Jari Kurri (601) for most goals by a Finnish-born player?
(he is 36 years old) |

If he could have one really big goal scoring year again soon (this or next year) then maybe.

Yeah, it's doable I think. He seems like the kind of guy that would want to break it.
Anyways, did any of ya'll see that beating Brashear put on Vishnivski or however you spell it? Blood all over his face and jersey..all over the ice. That's what you get hartley when you try to goon it up. |

Devils put up a pretty lethargic effort in a 3-1 loss to the Coyotes. Gomez came back, but he did not look good, as well as the rest of the team.

You guys really don't think he's got three 30-goals seasons left in him after this year?

20 is the new 30, that's part of the problem. Goal scoring may be up, but not like was anticipated, in fact it's down this year over last years. If he has a big year this year, he should be ok, but if he does not, coaches will start to play him less and the like because they'll assume age is slowing him down.

Goal scoring is down. Selanne is getting older and he is still 100 away. I would doubt that he would get to 600. He had a great year last year, but I don't think he will be able to repeat that. He only has a few years left, so I do not see it happening.

It really has to do with a combination of amazing chemistry and blazing speed. I honestly beleive they are the fastest team in the NHL. |

Yeah the Sabres are probably the fastest team in the NHL. I love watching them play.
ANYWAY, back to Selanne. I dunno why you guys seem so convinced that he has no chance of getting to 600 goals in his career. He has 8 goals in 23 games so far this year. If he stays healthy and remains on this pace (which is below his capablities btw), he will score around 28 goals this year, leaving him with a total of 520 by season's end. For argument's sake, lets say he plays three more years after this season. In those three years, he would need a total of 81 goals to tie Jari Kurri's mark of 601. That amounts to an average of 27 goals per year. Is it really out of the question? |

nhl 2k7 is more realistic to what you might get in the NHL today. But the gameplay on 07 is fantastic. The ability to control how you stickhandle makes it immense. Plus the graphics are better.
The soundtrack for 2K7 is tops though. Anything associated with sub pop is good. I have both, and you wont go wrong with any. Although I was never thrilled with the way 2K7 plays. I prefer 07. The gameplay puts it over the top. Habs destroy the Sabres. |
