Hopefully it stands

No reason it shouldn't

If the only rule is you can’t punch it in.

I've seen weird calls before

Never certain about something till they say it

Lehtinen

Nice shoulder deflection. I wish I had that kinda skill.

That was all started by another great play by Ott

I'd buy that for a dollar

Positive stat

2nd best winning % after the all-star break, only behind the Red Wings.

We do always seem to play better the second half of the season. Hope it holds up

Thats close

Could be a penalty shot there…….

What is going on here?

by hiafex on Jan 27, 2009 7:55 PM CST reply actions

We need to get at least a goal out of this

Ugh

Don’t know what they could have done any different on that PP.

That Modano/Conner/Neal line looks peppy tonight

I thought we did too in that Buffalo game

But we gave up 3 in the 3rd. Come on Stars, you can do it!

I’d like to see a gif of Rob Schneider saying that…

by hiafex on Jan 27, 2009 9:08 PM CST up reply actions

So...

Where can we get some more commentors at? Should we kidnap some from the Stars official message boards or what?

by hiafex on Jan 27, 2009 9:04 PM CST reply actions

It’s slow going. The net is watered down with Stars blogs. It takes a while to really build a following. The best we can do is keep spreading the word and I’ll keep pumping what I hope is good material.

Can barely stay on for more than a couple of minutes before it goes out

That sucks.

Here’s a run down: The Stars are a lot better than the Thrashers and Turco and Lehtonen look awesome. The end.

Who all sees the leprechaun in the trees say "Yea!"

This game just needs to get over.

The Stars are clearly better, but they have a tendency to let up….Just win, move on…..

How'd the 3rd period go?

Sounds like you were keeping yourself pretty entertained Brandon. I’m glad to see that Turco got the shutout, it’s been a while since he’s done that, eh?
