- Canes signed Dwyer, Flood & Jensen to one-year, two-way contracts. Which is good. I guess. Whatever.
- This whole Brett Favre thing makes me depressed beyond imagining. Thinking of him in a uniform other than the Green & Gold... well, I'm surprised they haven't put the whole state of Wisconsin under suicide watch. So what, you retired early. Go out on the top of your game, have everyone remember you for the greatness, not the mediocrity that will come with retiring too late.
- I'm so watching the VH1 Rock Honors The Who.
- Lecavalier signed a 11-year, $85 mil contract with the Lightning. Which means he'll be in the Southeast Division for his entire career. YaY. Not.
- You realize you can get 21,250,000 gallons of gas at $4 a gallon for $85 mil?
- The picture to the left scares the crap out of me. Why? Because it is getting increasingly hard to uphold my vow to never ever ever get a social networking account. Everyone and everything I know is saying "Be my friend on Myspace" or "Check out my Facebook". Y'know what? No. NO! I will never conform!
Canes lost 5-4 to the Avalanche last night.
From what I could tell on Chuck K's broadcast of the game, the Canes completely lost it in the third period. Heading into the second intermission, they were up 4-2, and before I knew it they were tied, then down 5-4.
Not cool.
So, yeah, I was glad that the game wasn't broadcast on FSN, because I was at home watching the Pack roasted the Seahawks 42-20. Although, from what I saw on the news highlights, Erik Cole's goal was spectactularly awesome, and probably would have been doubly that, had I seen it real-time.
Canes play Tuesday against Toronto. Some healthy players, a full 60 minutes of hockey, and a win would be nice in that one.
Erik Cole stats: 1 goal
On the season: 10 goals, 18 assists
Chad LaRose stats: 1 goal
On the season: 6 goals, 7 assists
Canes lost 4-1 to the Devils last night.
Missing in the lineup was essentially half the team - those who were not injured were struck with a nasty flu bug going around the team.
Canes didn't look that bad until the third period, where they just lost control - allowing two goals and putting little to none offensive pressure on the Devils.
The good news was that Keith Aucoin got his first NHL goal!
Next game is tomorrow against the Avalanche. I will probably not be watching all of it because of a little thing called NFL PLAYOFFS! Go Pack Go!
In other news, Eric Staal is going to his second consecutive All-Star game.
And, for the second consecutive year, the best power forward evah! was not selected to go... It's a travesty.
3-0 has a nice ring to it, doesn't it?
Sadly, I'm not talking about the Canes (who lost their third preseason game 4-1 against the Predators), but, instead, I'm going off on one of my forays into NFL-Land.
Yep, the Green Bay Packers are 3-0 after their win over the Chargers today. And Brett Favre tied Dan Marino's all-time TD record.
So, yeah, I'm pretty much in football bliss right now.
Anyways, back to hockey... Canes won their second game Friday against the Predators. I can't really remember anything important about that game... (even though I attended it...) Casey Borer, a defenseman, scored a goal and an assist... Um... Cam Ward looked pretty good... Final score 3-0, held Nashville to 18 shots... Lookin' good so far...
I really have to start writing this stuff down... That is a pathetic game recap.
Thoughts that have crossed my mind in the last 24 hours (bullet-style!):
- I can't believe I'm going to school Monday.
- I can't wait for fantasy hockey to start up.
- Canes players are once again congregating at the RecZone - a sign that hockey will be starting soon!
- Please have Donald Driver be okay!
- I don't want to go to school!
- I am so glad I went to this Baltimore Orioles game and not this one.
- OW! Fire is hot!
- I think I'm addicted to this game.
- Michael Vick is an idiot, and the judge should throw out his plea bargain.
- Once again, Canes get screwed over by national television.
- Blogger polls' effectiveness is sporadic. But that won't stop me from using it!
Have fun clicking on all the links!
