Game 28: Kings At Avalanche, Preview And Open Thread

Los Angeles Kings at Colorado Avalanche, Dec 9, 2008 7:30 PM MST

Los Angeles Kings
   Colorado Avalanche
 11-11-4 December 9, 2008  13-13-1 
   Pepsi Center
 

 Denver, CO
 

"You know, I think they proved that they're a bunch of homers. I don't think they have the balls to play like that in our building, and, you know, they proved that."
Even though former Avalanche grinder Mike Keane spoke those words more than a decade ago, and after playing a different team, those words could have easily applied to the Los Angeles Kings after their despicable showing on November 22nd.  With apparent orders from coach Terry Murray, the Kings' fourth line, led by bush leaguer John Zeiler, hit the ice with every intention of hurting somebody on the Avs.  Unfortunately for Adam Foote, he was the "lucky" recipient of one of the worst boardings in the NHL so far this year.  Zeiler used his arm to purposely shove Foote head-first into the boards, injuring the veteran defensemen so severely that he has yet to return to the Colorado lineup.  He is reported to be skating again, but is still not ready for full contact.

Zeiler received a three-game suspension, which, when compared to the six-game suspension Sean Avery received for just being a douche bag, doesn't seem all that significant.  I suppose the league thinks purposely injuring another player's body is less of a problem than purposely injuring another player's self-esteem.  Such is the world in which we live, I suppose.  Zeiler's suspension has been served, but since he's a terrible hockey player and at least three Avalanche players (Lappy and the Codys) would be quite happy to beat him to a pulp, it's unclear if he'll play tonight.

ADDENDUM: Dater says Zeiler will play, and that he didn't mean to hurt Foote, despite all the evidence to the contrary.  That's nice.  Nobody here is calling for him to get injured, but to put up his dukes and face some chin music for his troubles.  Face-to-face, fist-to-fist, no cheap shots or anything remotely resembling the Bertuzzi Battery.  Just in case that wasn't clear.  (Hat tip to Dario.)

The Avs have won both of the two prior meetings between the teams this season.  They will look to extend that streak to three.  Peter Budaj will be in net (still on pace for 72 starts this year), with Jason LaBarbera staring at him from the opposing crease.  LaBarbera's last game was a 3-0 shutout over the Blue Jackets, which would be impressive if it hadn't been against the Blue Jackets.

I wish I could watch this game (or any game, really).  My last final exam is on Thursday and I'm a busy bee studying for it.  For the rest of you, thread the hell out of this one for me.  And I'm not just talking to the usual suspects (SlamDunkTheFunk, Savage33 and texacogirl).  I want to see some new names involved tonight.  Go Avs!

Av ".500" record

Real record: 27 points for, 33 points given away. Why even the suckiest of sucks don’t look so bad in Bettman’s watered down NHL.

MHH: Shagging Dater one contributor at a time.

by Bob in Boulder on Dec 9, 2008 5:39 PM MST reply actions  

By comparison

The Kings’ “.500” record represents 26 points for, 32 points given away. Or .448 awarded points earned (APE) versus .450 APE for the Avs. Hurray, we suck ever so slightly less than the LA fricken Kings! I should trademark the APE thing or something.

And this is just the reason for my comment. Last time I was on club level, some guy offered to “buy me anything I want” if I would just cheer less. In other words, he told me to STFU. I wanted to fight him right then and there I was so pissed. Is there some sort of rule against smacking fellow fans if they’re jerk-offs?

From the Av’s Farm Report:

The Chiefs currently lead the American North Division with a 17-6-1-0 record.

I love that we have an a farm team based on the original Chiefs (or Jets, as they were back when the movie was made). Too bad the Monsters are not faring as well.

What the hell

Anyone see this on the Avs site, Stoa got WCHA player of the month and Peter Delmas, the goalie, got credited with a goal. He’s already achieved more than Boods, why don’t we have Delmas in net instead of Boods, or atleast Raycroft. Then Boods could learn how to score and round out his game.

My six year old nephew met him last year when my dad took him to the Altitude Authentics store. Mcleod was there with his parents, who wanted to buy replica Mcleod jerseys, but the didn’t have them yet. He is the nicest kid off the ice, and while the encounter with my nephew was my nephews first time meeting a hockey player, it may have been Mcleod’s first time he met a fan, as it happened after about his 3rd or 4th game with the Avs.

the recipe said equal parts, but I made it more like 1,1,.5,.5,.5 The .5’s aren’t all equal either. Banana is real strong so I used a touch less and a bit more grenadine for the pink color. the milk also just really adds the creamy look. Have fun.
