Rangers fired their coach, thats now 2 coaches gone in the past few weeks. I wonder if anybody else is going to get fired.

Hopefully tonights Stars/Sharks game will be a good one.

You, myself, and probably every other hockey fan! I missed the last one, but I refuse to miss this one, I'll make sure I get my school work done.

taltos,

They will eventually pull through. Sharks just went through that, and are finally just getting everyone back. Missing 1 or 2 players consistently, can completely change the tempo of the game for ANY team.

Went to the HURRICANES - SABRES game tonight. Wow!

Cam Ward was amazing... but Lalime was excellent for the Sabres as well (Miller is out.) 'Canes won... in a flippin' shootout! Sabres get a point, which ties us for the 8th spot.... but only 2 points out of 5th. Wild night in Raleigh!

The East is really tight, Joe, March is going to be a great month for hockey.

Probably academic, though... Detroit and San Jose are absolute beasts! Probably mow through the Eastern Conference. But there is a reason they play the games, isn't there?

While I think the West is better than the East, once in the playoffs, it can be a disadvantage. Last year I don't think the sharks would have had a chance beating Detriot after going through the flames and stars, just too many hard games in a short period of time though.
