PrintBecause nobody demanded it (and Joe threatened to hold back my allowance), it's another rip-roaring edition of the Internet's Most Useless Goalie Ramblings!!! And yes, I'm really going to stick with the roman numeral bit. I'm a nerd. Roll with it.
- I think we can all agree that this season's SPG race turned out to not be much of a race at all. There's a pretty clear dividing line between those who gave a crap (i.e. MacBond) and those who didn't (everybody else).
- Tony Granato makes a half-hearted, cliche-filled pitch to remain with the Avalanche next year. He also gives some props to recent call-ups Galiardi and Peltier. I personally like Peltier's comment about putting a better product on the ice for the fans' sake.
- Kurt Streeter on the left coast has a really good article on goaltending through the eyes of the Kings' J. Quick. With a name like Quick he has to be good, right? That's why the Avs got Mike Wall remember. Names mean everything.
- Free knowledge for the day: ACL stands for Anterior Cruciate Ligament. Or in my case: No hockey for three weeks...
- Al Strachan has a piece on tanking to rebuild. What kind of piece it is will be left up to the reader...
- Old favorite Marc Crawford had somebody ghost-write an article on the necessary ingredients for a Stanley Cup Championship team. How do I know it's ghost-written? Neaderthals didn't have a written language... *EDIT: Props to From The Point for putting up a Fanshot on this one.
- I imagine this book's first chapter is a page in length with the phrase "This page left intentionally blank" printed on it. The second and third, however, are only available in encyclopedic, 23-volume sets.
- My alma-mater has an ice hockey team. Here's photgraphic evidence:

I always thought ACL stood for OUCH! If something wrong happens to it anyway.
That Granato article is just plan sad…that is all

That's what my knee injury was
An ACL avulsion & fracture(Means ligament and part of the bone completely separate from the rest of the bone).
That was some major pain.

Granato
He already is part of the rebuilding, you cann’t have a rebuild without the demolition.

I disagree partially
on the SPG race.. Macbond didn’t try, he just submitted that the Avs wouldn’t score, this season that was the easy way out.
And is it just me, or is the link to Granato’s plea not working?
MHH: Like the Avs organization, we’ve now officially lost our minds.

Works on my state-of-the-art 3D modeling machine too. Maybe the intrawebs just like Oklahoma better?

It takes for every and I get a blank page…then again I am on a “School” computer at the moment.
