Running 2007 NHL regular season thread

I believe you are correct. Also, three out of four games tonight went to a shootout.

 

FSN's Jim Watson congratulates Kopitar on his game-winning goal ... in overtime. Dude, it's a shootout goal, not an OT goal. Brutal.

 

Jim Watson's outta there. Jim Fox (who I met at Riviera Country Club at the Nissan Open earlier this year and was very cool) is now providing the analysis. Much better.

Here's a funny video compilation of the "worst announcers in the NHL". Tampa Bay's Dave Mishkin is a lunatic!</a>

 

Oh dear, Jeanneret is just awful ... thinks it's friggin' soccer.

 

Oh Christ, Mishkin ... this is painful.

 

He's an acquired taste.

His May Day call (on Brad May's series winning OT goal over the Bruins) is one of the greatest calls in all of hockey.

Here's the TSN Top Ten...MayDay is #1 of course.

And now he's got Harry Neale in the booth with him

 

From the Calgary Sun:

"You'd think that we'd learned from that (Nashville) experience," said Flames head coach Mike Keenan, who was asked if they got too comfortable with the wide margin over an explosive Avalanche team.

"There is no explanation for it without that explanation. They quit playing."

 

Mike Keenan is a certifiable dick.

 

Amen.

But he's right. They did quit.

 

It's my fault, I was out covering a volleyball tournament and as soon as I stepped in the door of my apartment to turn on Versus, the Flyers scored twice within a minute. This team/franchise/organization/city needs an enema.

 

And poor Canadiens. Huet is brilliant, holding up a 1-0 first period lead. Florida scores with 10 seconds left and then wins in a shootout.
