TB wins their 3rd straight. 6-4 over the Panthers.

Malone had 1 goal and 3 assists, St. Louis had 1 goal and 3 assists, Lecavalier had 2 goals and 1 assist, Stamkos had a goal, Artyukhin had a goal, Jokinen had 2 assists, and Matt Smaby picked up his first NHL point

good game, with some bad reffing
 
Back after a hiatus! Excited like crazy to have Sundin on board and here's hoping Bobby Lou comes back soon! Hope to stick around longer now!

Blue Jackets top the Coyotes 3-0. I love to see the Blue Jackets win, but like I said before, I'm probably the only Canadian that wants the Southern America teams to do good. It really dissapoints me to see Phoenix loose, cause everytime it just seems like a nail in the coffin to me. :dunno: They are in a playoff position right now, but I don't think that even making the playoffs will save them.

Dude, with the way the Canucks are going, you are going to be too busy cheering for them then to come on here! :rofl:

Good win by Tampa. They really need to work on their game, though. If they could play like they do in the first period of their games all the time, they would be the team that everyone thought they would be last year.

Let's see how they do against the Canadiens. Hopefully they can turn this season into something respectable.

Welcome back Nikki! :glugglug:

The Canucks will cause more surprises this year :thumbsup:

Montréal 5 - Florida 2

Another hattrick tonight: Maxim Lapierre, our 4th line center, scored his 5, 6 and 7th of the year to help the Habs wins in Florida. Lapierre is playing the better hockey of his career since 2 or 3 weeks: it's nice to see him having the lights as his role is often less flashy.

Guillaume Latendresse, which was a healthy scratch in the past weeks, is still playing with intensity. Not flashy but effective. He could have been the 4th star of the game.

Craig Anderson, one of the hottest goalie in the league since the start of the season, failed miserably tonight and been retired after the 4th Habs goal.

Montreal @ Tampa Bay tonight , man I hope the Bolts win that one. For me its almost like a Nordiques vs Canadiens game , the Lightning have to win. If they play like they have in the last 3 games they have a very good chance I think. Go Bolts GO !

we got a bit complacent against the Panthers at the Times Forum and were lucky to have been able to score enough to win. we'll have to play more like we did against the Penguins to beat the Canadiens. we need to shut their offense down like we did to Crosby and Malkin

oh, and let's see if Artyukhin will continue to play like the beast we know he is ;)

I would love to see Arty in a fight with Laraque :D
 
when hocky first started the goalies would throw off their gloves and go at it for about 15 minutes before the game begin. Anybody have any thing on that?

took a few months longer than i thought, but a hit thrown by Artyukhin broke the glass. he put Tanguay into the boards and cracked the pain in half :nanner:

*sigh*

Smith still stinks in the shootout and we still can't take advantage of our power plays...

Tampa needs a new goalie. Smith is too damn inconcistent in his plays, you can't rely on him. As soon as you think he's playing good, he fucks up. Tampa needs a goalie that can play a whole game, and not just the first two periods. I promise you that, if Tampa had a good goalie, they would be in the middle of the playoff race, if not fighting the Caps for the Southeast title.

Same here. Laraque is injured and stayed in Montreal. Next game! :D

That was a legit check. Of course, im sad that Tanguay was injured in the event (sounds like a serious shoulder injury, i should get better info this morning on the radio)... but i have to admit that i would love to have a Artyukhin or Lucic in my team. Last time i have witnessed such kind of bodycheck, it was in the '70s when Larry Robinson crashed a Philly player throught the glass.

and Artyukhin pummels Kostopolous into submission. bad idea to start that fight by Tom

He had to. After the hit on Tanguay, someone had to step up. A very courageous decision by Kostopoulos: he was aware he was gonna be killed but did his job. I really admire the courage of Kostopoulos and Begin: those guys are really selfless team-players with a huge heart. Tom conceded 5 inches and 45 pounds to Arty... and he faced him regardless. Kudos.




It was a good game overall. You guys are really lucky to have a player like Artytukhin in the lineup: that guy is a beast, somewhat like Lucic!

I've been impressed by the overall game of Steve Emingler too. That guy is a well-hidden secret in Tampa, right?

My team won but... i think Tampa deserved the win. A very impressive defensive performance by your team guys.
