thanks to everyone who took the time to vote on the first of many future planned "whaddya think" forums. thanks again to those exact same people for not voting twice... it's amusing to me how much time i've spent, over the past week or so, testing different free online web polls (to get one that would show results without bounching to another site, and offer customization in colour and font), only to have most of the comments go down over on the open ice.
thanks for stealing my thunder, dave. i expect it from ST, but not from you... :P
dave's main beef with poll#2 below (bertuzzi handily leading in votes for "most disappointing") is that nobody should have expected anything from the aging veteran. with no expectation, there should be no disappointment... i absolutely agree, which is why i voted for the currently-godawful cory sarich.... anyhow. it seems a couple of other people didn't like the question cause more people voted on poll#1...
tonight, a tired flames group will roll into one of the toughest arena's in the NHL. unfortunately, they played hard and fairly well in montreal (final score notwithstanding) and may not have much left in the tank for a matchup against the always tough redwings.
i was heartened last night by a screen shot of keenan, immediately following a typical own-zone bad pass at the blueline (leading to a turnover) by bootuzzi. iron mike was shaking his head in disgust, pacing, and shovelling that crushed ice into his face. the body language screamed out, to me, that big todd might spend a little time tonight on the fourth line... wishful thinking ?? we'll see....
a win tonight would be nice, but currently i'm just hoping for a not-blowout.

bert returns to detroit to play his former team. this is a great time to step up....but he won't.
Aww, c'mon, that wasn't necessary...
Oh wait, yeah, it probably was... : P
I don't understand, WI. Peter Loubardias said last night that Cory Sarich was putting in "another strong effort." Are you saying he's misleading me?
It's all Leanne's fault (the comments thing). She was whipping me all the way from Calgary to post something, and I was drawing a blank until I saw your poll (and its lopsided results) that compelled me to comment.
So as usual, it's all her fault. Please accept her apologies.
duncan:
i can see by your comment that you also nearly spit out your beer due to laughter at that comment.
Yep. Poor Peter's getting a case of the stupids from having to set next to Charlie Simmer all the time.
OK, that's just mean. I take it back.
A case of the bad announcers.
duncan: since when are we trying not to be mean ? i thought honesty was the key... does that mean i have to stop calling him bootuzzi ?
ST: nice ta see ya, buddy. :)
