And away we go NHL thread!!!!

The Wings will be looking forward to the Olympic break next year. They are going to need it to get healthy. I hardly recognize the team now.

i think the Rangers should take the olympic break and stay on it, just keep going, like to Tunisia or something.

And yet, even with all the injuries, you guys are what, 6pts out of first in the central? This weekend is huge tho, with home/home against chicago. basically 8pts at stake.

[Shawn Lutz]

they're 4 points behind Chicago right now but played 2 more games than them.

Normally I'd be stoked about the home and home with Chicago. I think the Hawks will blow them out in Chicago. The Wings play in Dallas on Saturday, travel and play Chicago on Sunday...so they have one more game to get someone else injured, how about Lidstrom or Datsyuk this time

What, to bless it and curse the flyers? I dont think the bruins need any help in this one.

speaking of underachieving, we've got a huge gutterball matchup tomorrow afternoon of the Flyers and Rangers. i don't mean to insult the flyers using their name in the same sentence as the Rangers but they're both tanking badly.

Looking forward to the Sabre's - Pen's game tonight. I'd be surprised if Ryan Miller isn't in net tonight for Buffalo. This will be a good measuring stick game tonight for the Pens.

[atomic charvel guy]

and where have you been Mr. Razely?

[Razor]

Working too much more than anything. Bought a new to me boat at the first of October, and that kept me preoccupied for a while too Pens - Sabre's has been a good game to watch so far. Lots of north - south rushes and some good hits on both sides of the puck. Looks like it will be an interesting third period.

[Razor]

How about those Rangers putting another nail in the Flyers coffin. You know it just pains me to see the Flyers lose

[atomic charvel guy]

without lundqvist it never would have happened.

[Razor]

King Henrik is a great goalie. Pens take another shootout win. That was a damn good game to watch. Score does not reflect how up and down the action was.

[clifffclaven]

chicago with their fourth straight win last night. Man, you can tell detroit is beat up right now.
