I had at least a couple of miscues -- the 4 minute major and not giving Kotalik an extra assist (check my math there). I made the changes and appreciate the comments.

Great write up !

One minor editorial comment - there's no such thing as a 4 minute major. The penalty on Pisani was a double-minor because he drew blood with the high stick on Del Zotto. (I'm sure a few people gasped when they saw MDZ's head snap back and he dropped to the ice.)

Saturday's game against Calgary will be more of a test. Hopefully we'll see Dane Byers back in the lineup, more ice-time for Avery, and Higgins continue playing loose and scoring. Something on the scoresheet from the Captain would be a nice bonus....

Terrific post GMantis...the ambulance zamboni pix had me in stitches..

I wonder if you all felt bad for Tom Renney, as I did watching the game. Not only because he was having to watch a bionic team with strengths that he was never able to manage (well...the leftover six players from his team that is..), but moreso because he was THE ASSISTANT coach of the Oilers -- second in command. If you watched the MSG feed that I did, they kept painting this picture of 'how Renney was going to feel' or 'the return of the RANGERS' and putting him on the spot with the camera.

Is it just me? How friggin abusive was this behavior? MSG fired this guy and they taunted him with nostalgic memories of GETTING FIRED...

Anyhoo, the Blueshirts looked good last night...a complete game and still continually impressed with the young'ens..

Hoping for 2 of 3 on the west coast swing..
