Canada Barely Escapes USA (Puckhead's Thoughts)

Wed, 07 May 2008 08:30:00 GMT

Team USA had about the best starts you can think of in a tournament. But Canada quickly grew a 3-0 lead before the United States roared back and tied them 4-4 in the third. That is when Dany Heatley buzzed a one timer past Craig Anderson (who replaced Tim Thomas in the third) with just 47 seconds left to play. Things got a little testy at the end of the game with a few roughing calls being

Not even the legendary Red Aurbach or the ring master Phil Jackson would be able to lead that team to the playoffs. Without Brand, it was another horrifically assembled Donald Sterling team that had no where near the talent to even say...

"They played in the regular season with the best power-play unit in the league."We can't take stupid penalties. We have to be disciplined, but we have to play hard.""If you look at their power play, it's not one-dimensional," Flyers coach John Stevens said. "They take advantage of the options...

NHL Separated at Birth (Steve Warne's TGOR Nation Blog)

Ahhh, Wade. The Flamingo Kid... Don't sign him in Phoenix, Wayne!! Phenomenal work by the folks at Sports Illustrated in their NHL stars separated at birth feature. My favourites are posted here. I especially love the Ovechkin look alike with James Bond actor Richard Kiel. Tim Thomas a dead ringer for Drew Carey. Iggy and Tyson? Who knew? The rest of the SI feature can be found here .

Boston's Tim Thomas is a good goaltender, but he wasn't great like Price, who had two shutouts and is giving Montreal a lot of hope that it can win a Cup. On the other hand, Detroit Red Wings coach Mike Babcock had to replace Dominik Hasek with Chris Osgood and that enabled Detroit to finish off Nashville....

Great Expectations (Sisu Hockey)

Wed, 23 Apr 2008 16:52:00 GMT

It happened awhile ago, but Game 2 really got me thinking a lot about shot quality. The perception persists that the Habs stole the game, that they were outplayed by Boston. Boston held the edge in shots, 39-31, and 21-14 at EV. That's where the positives begin and end for the Bruins. There were two breakaways (Kovalev and AKost) stopped by Tim Thomas. The Bruins had none. Letting highly skilled...

Tim Thomas stopped 30 shots for Boston, which fell short in its bid to overcome both 2-0 and 3-1 series deficits for the first time in team history.

The Canadiens made it 3-0 on a Kostitsyn-from-Kostitsyn goal, Sergei feeding brother Andrei for a shot from the slot just after time expired on a Chara penalty for holding...
