Am I a crazy homer for thinking the Hawks are for real this year? Just bought an 11 game ticket package with an option to buy playoff tickets. Patrick Kane jersey to follow the next time I'm drunk on th e internet.

Anyone see Nash's goal last night? Simply amazing..... might have made Crosby cry again. I've found a couple links for it, but none have the reverse angle (which gives the best view).

Played a wide slapper by Hainsey off the boards to the right of the net, grabbed the puck, put it between his legs and straight up into the net from about 1-2 feet.

2nd best goal in NHL this year behind Toews....

wow, gomez22 - old school SSNL.

yeah, i saw it - pretty incredible. Rick Nash seems like he's on a mission to get Columbus into the playoffs.

Man why are the Devils so terrible? What's going on with Brodeur. I understand they have a ridiculous road trip to start the season, but come on.

Someone has Brodeur on a fantasy team, I see.

The Devils are bad because their defense is Paul Martin, Johnny Oduya, Karel Rachunek, Andy Greene, Vitali Vishnevsky, and Sheldon Brookbank. For those of you counting, that's two guys who've been in the NHL since 03-04, one overage free agent, one guy who played overseas for two seasons in the middle of his career, one rookie, and one guy who's 27 and played 3 NHL games (or his replacement, a guy who's 29 and played about 30). Throw on top of that a new offensive and defensive system, and it's going to take some time to get used to how things are run in Jersey.

Kippur, Luongo, Brodeur, Mason are just a few goalies who've absolutely stunk so far. Killing me in fantasy leagues, Mason and Kippur are.

Hehe Bingo. At least I have Nabokov in my pool. He's somewhat counterbalancing Brodeur's general stinkage.
