Didn't really notice Jokinen except when he was giving away the puck, but maybe that's how they play hockey on his planet (I still contend he looks like a space alien).<BR/><BR/>To not be totally negative, Moss, GlenX, and Nystrom are running around trying hard to fill the Lombo "high energy" role (yes I know WI, not nearly as prettily or doe-eyed). Fun to watch though.<BR/><BR/>Can't wait to watch tonight's game, and I sure hope to be able to lord over the canuckle heads in the office tomorrow. Unfortunately, I'm not convinced. Still 17 butts on the bench, so-so offensive performance, barely satisfactory goaltending, practically no PP, and apparently we're playing junior hockey on defence.<BR/><BR/>I turned the channel during intermission to avoid Mr. Brophy's "analysis"; no idea what went down. Here's a little of my own "inside dope" though: Tonight's winner will definitely be the team that leaves it all on the ice, plays solid defensively, and gets more pucks in the net.<BR/><BR/>GO FLAMES!<BR/><BR/>p.s.

AND we get to have him sucking up the top line for another whole year.<BR/><BR/>god i miss lombo.walkinvisiblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08874510508773958406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5853674483927136845.post-61817854412771877852009-04-07T16:44:00.000-06:002009-04-07T16:44:00.000-06:00I had the same unfortunate thoughts last night abo...I had the same unfortunate thoughts last night about OJ. But I'm also willing to think that he's been sold a bill of goods about his "role" on the line with Iginla, that he has to carry the puck around and try to find Iggy and/or Cammalleri. Which is stupid.<BR/><BR/>Notice how Iginla was on together with Langkow and Cammo for about 15 seconds last night, and it led to a goal? Iginla and Langkow work well together, period. Cammalleri and Iginla create room for one another. They should be on the same line. <BR/><BR/>Jokinen should work with, I don't know, Moss and Lundmark? I don't really care. Just please, for the love of everything, separate Jokinen and Iginla.duncanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16433163316485435724noreply@blogger.com
