flames v. stars postgame: WHOAH

okay. alright. okay...

so i had to work through the game and missed it in its entirety (though i was able to watch the progressing eclipse, in stages). i also missed the whole vandermeer trade thing, but that's besides the point.

vandermeer: good trade.

game: good game.

in reading the shift chart, i was totally thrown off by sarich getting a puck in the face.
hale playing with regehr ??? regehr shifting with warrener like old times ??? i thought keenan (read: playfair, defensive specialist) had totally blown a gasket and forgotten how defensive pairings worked. the highlights showed a different story... is it wrong to say the disc of frozen rubber might've actually knocked some sense into #6 while it knocked out five teeth ? he seems to have played his best game in ages.....

other thoughts:

- if iggy keeps having games like this, we might honestly have to coin "the iggy pair", as opposed to"the gordie howe hattrick." a goal and a fight is nothing to scoff at, and our boy jarome has been chalking these up like they're going out of style....

- tanguay has either proven himself invaluable, or upped his forseeable trade return.... discuss


and for you folks:

there might be some interesting developments happening over here at hitthepost. stay tuned... ;)
