Oh crap!

I haven’t posted since the 11th?!?! What on earth is wrong with me? If last night’s game was a preview of what we can expect from the Winter Classic, I’m more than happy to stay home and sleep through it on the couch like I normally do. Balanced scoring is good, but it’d be nice to see some action from the top line too. Is it just me, or is this team still figuring each other out? Hopefully three games in four days will help the chemistry get going a bit. Oh, the Habs won too, but it was against the Isles with Biron in goal. Does that still count as a win?

Okay, that's more like it!

There’s the team we know and love! Get out to an early lead, take foot off gas in third and blow it. Thank goodness they’re back, I was starting to worry! And seriously, what’s with our shootout strategy? All three shooters go low? Uh, what?

who says Pens fans are stupid?

Flyers fan in car to Penguins fan in crosswalk on the way out after the game: “Penguins suck!” Pens fans response: “So do you, that’s why you’re leaving!” Uh, we’re leaving because the game is over….nice comeback, George Costanza!

You can't win em all.

(Bruce Bennett/Getty Images) I’m not gonna lie, The Pronger’s water ritual during warmups is the highlight of the game. The honeymoon is over. Ryan Parent is this year’s Randy Jones. What the hell was wrong with Coburn? What the hell was wrong with the D? The Pronger hulking out on Kunitz was my favorite part of the game

Oh good, the Pens. We are so great at beating them.

Clicking my remote into the wee hours of the morning brought me a little gem: Sudden Death was on last night. You know, the one where Iceburgh gets killed? I’m not gonna do any voodoo rituals on my stuffed Iceburgh today, because that hardly ever results in a win for the Flyers. The Pens lost last night to the Coyotes, and if you saw them play, you know that they were just saving their energy for tonight’s game. They even started Brent Johnson to give Lil flower some rest. I hope to be at the game tonight

Game of the year candidate

heh. listening to HNIC Radio on Sirius and Jeff Marek just called the Caps/Flyers game a “game of the year” candidate. Nice. So, my tivo recorded the game, but without any volume. My tivo has a terrible track record of recording big games. If you ever left a game and said “Wow! I would love to watch that game again tonight, and over and over again through the years,” chances are that my Tivo didn’t record it. Two and a Half Men, no problem. Epic hockey games, not so much.

money well spent (the game, not The Pronger!)

More on the game later, for now I gotta go watch it on tivo. Great game.

Get Ready for Knuble's first hat trick as a Cap!

You know he’s gonna punish us! Just accept it now! Questions for tonight’s game: Should I wear my Pronger shirt that I wore for the first two games? Should I wash it first? Which socks will turn out to be lucky? How many margaritas should I have? Will I be removed from the Wachovia Center in a wheelchair due to said margaritas? Will I be able to take pictures, or will I be rendered frozen by The Pronger?

Home Opener Eve

This blog is not funny. Pick a team. I don’t know if I’m going to be able to sleep tonight! I took the day off of work because lord knows I wouldn’t be able to concentrate. (That, and going to a game straight after work smelling like cheese really stinks…) Tomorrow, I will be in the second row of section 106 to watch the Flyers take on Ovechkin. My plan originally was to shoot warmups from my sweet seats in 106, but after all those Pronger teasers on Versus tonight, I think I’m in the mood for some swooning. I’m thinking I’ll try for my old seats over in 119 so I can get a swoonful look at The Pronger. And what was up with The Pronger’s ensemble? Striped suit, plaid-ish shirt, paisley tie?
