Chicago, IL |
T-10th in West |
The Avalanche visit former coach Joel Quenneville this evening in Chicago. Both teams are coming off of 3-2 road losses on Thursday - the Avs to the Predators, the Hawks to Detroit. It's Chicago's home opener and I would imagine the crowd will be a tad more involved than we saw in Nashville.
Craig Anderson will be in net for the Avs and we're assuming Cristobal Huet will be between the pipes for the Blackhawks. According to Terry Frei, Wojtek Wolski practiced with Paul Stastny and Milan Hejduk on Friday so chances are decent he'll be back up on the first line tonight. He doesn't sound very happy about Thursday's 3rd period benching ("Wolski repeatedly said, 'I'll pass on that one,' when asked about the benching."); anyone else concerned that Joe Sacco's might be riding some of these guys a little too hard?

Well, the last game I had a bad feeling about we won….

I wonder…how is Wolski, or the team for that matter, is going to respond to being benched in the 3rd…
Sacco said “everyone has to be held accountable”….man, he wasn’t joking.

No matter how well or poorly we do tonight, there is absolutely no way we can be as bad as Florida. I sat through the Carolina-Florida game last night (have to do something at 2am, and hey, Center Ice is free right now), and boy do they suck. When Steve Reinprecht is one of your top line guys, you are in deep trouble. No offense to the guy, I liked him when he was here. I think Vokoun may be the only thing keeping that team away from the AHL. Well, there was one other guy, but I don’t recall his name now.
Anyway, I might be here during the intermissions, as long as there are no Brett Farve interviews to distract me. Go Avs.
Get rid of the loser point
09-10 Avs- Nowhere to go but up!
The Panthers looked like they had better places to be last night…honestly, that team has no heart.

Too bad
Vokoun is, in my opinion, the most underrated player in the game.

I’m glad Wolski was benched for that one. He was invisible for the first 2 periods, which was typical of his play last year. Sometimes he shows up to play, sometimes he doesn’t. He needs someone to call him out….and if he can’t handle it, then he’s probably even softer than claimed by dobber.
I like the fact that a coach can stand up to his word.
I know Wolski isn’t a “superstar”, but if he’s willing to do that to a top line guy…it sends the message no one is safe.

Short term…it’s a LA win, but guys like Smytty…at his age, they start to decline quick, so in the long term, we will end up winning this deal. Q and Liles is going to make a killer power play combo for a while.

Sorry, personal bias here, but...
Good whiskey is not meant to be mixed with anything other than a little water. I could put Ten High in Pepsi and be happy, and it wouldn’t be any different than Jack or Gentleman Jack. Your brain may perceive a difference, your taste buds do not. I’d be happy to take the (pun intended) “Pepsi Challenge” with anyone who is interested. Any excuse to drink, after all.

After seeing the replay...
…it was the right move by Anderson to come out and challenge. Versteeg beat Svatos to the puck and had an open lane to the net. Unfortunately, 3 Colorado defenders got caught facing the puck and had their backs to Keith.

It’s pretty good. I figured it would taste exactly like Guiness, but it doesn’t. It’s stout looking, but tastes more like a Porter or a Brown ale.
I enjoyed it. And since the cute waitress at Old C’s put it as a “Specialty” I will be having it again. The only reason I hadn’t purchased it at the store yet is because it’s Oktoberfest/Marzen season, and that’s my favorite kind of beer which I always buy in the fall. Luckily the beer store within walking distance sells Sam Adams Oktoberfest, Paulaner Oktoberfest AND Marze, and one more which I have forgotten.
