Seems like I was right. I called it!

CI got a lot better last year about not blacking out games that weren't going to be televised locally. That's my plan, anyways.<BR/><BR/><I>His comments on Andy Mac and Kariya are pretty interesting. </I><BR/><BR/>I've been calling Andy Mac a Kariya clone since the lockout, and now I think little Shannon is a little Andy Mac clone, a la Michael Keaton in Multiplicity.<BR/><BR/><I>Gigure's line from that Minny series is just mind-boggling...</I><BR/><BR/>Indeed. Many are willing to write it off because it was 'defense-first' Minnesota, but watching the games they had excellent chances. Certainly the Wild had no trouble putting lots of pucks past the Avalanche and the Canucks that spring.Earl Sleekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15843720035500316419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27850362.post-1161372475275052082006-10-20T12:27:00.000-07:002006-10-20T12:27:00.000-07:00Gigure's line from that Minny series is just mind-...Gigure's line from that Minny series is just mind-boggling...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27850362.post-1161367880329105862006-10-20T11:11:00.000-07:002006-10-20T11:11:00.000-07:00When it comes to playing the better than average t...When it comes to playing the better than average teams so far, the Ducks have really gotten the short end of the stick.<BR/><BR/>Since they get to play them fresh and gunning for them, whereas San Jose gets the "Sloppy seconds". I like both teams though, and it's always neat to watch teams go through the "gauntlet" of California.<BR/><BR/>Excluding the kings though. Last night they went scoreless on a SEVEN MINUTE POWERPLAY. Oh lordie.<BR/><BR/>On another note, wondering if anybody read this:<BR/>http://sports.espn.go.com/nhl/columns/story?columnist=buccigross_john&id=2627943<BR/><BR/>It's pretty much a play by play of the Ducks/Stars game last week.

The Ducks played very well in Wednesday's game against the Wings. Hopefully they can pull of another game like that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
