OT - horrible injury in the Panthers game

So I was briefly watching the Panthers v Thrasers game before the Stars game. The Thrashers score and Ballard (a Panther dman) goes to whack his stick against the goal post and hits Vokoun (the Panthers goalie) in the head. He goes down, blood on the ice and was just carried off the ice in a stretcher. It’s bad enough you have to worry the opposition hurting you but this was awful and not even necessary on Ballard’s part.

If he starts scoring on these great chances, he’ll definitely be a Calder contender.

But as it stands, I don’t care if he wins the Calder. This kid is ROCK SOLID going both ways and I’m beginning to rethink my original position of wanting him to play in the AHL for the year.

One thing I do like about Wings broadcasts...

Mickey Redmond

Old guy is greatness. He’s constantly ripping the one piece sticks…

He always sounds like that though!

I watched a Wings game the other night and he sounded just like this! Everything was a lame penalty… One piece sticks were the work of the devil… When he was playing they had to walk to St. Louis and then only if they won they were allowed to take a rickety old bus home…

Stars maybe should get angry, go more attack mode, or should they stay patient? What do ya think is needed to change momentum?

by KStars on Nov 30, 2009 8:03 PM CST reply actions  

It's all about finishing.

Howard made several big saves, Neal missed an open net, Richards missed a goal….and the Wings have capitalized on theirs.

Agree… the need for finishing on all those chances would not only help us out of these situations, but prevent the Stars from falling into the hole early.

We need to bury the chances in the third, though the Wings will be a quagmire in the third!

I remember..

Mike Ribeiro chopping Chris Osgood. Its sort of like Keith Ballard except Ballard hut his teammate. I think he should be suspended, even though it was his own teammate

Florida has had some bad luck with that

I remember when Jokinen got his skate up and sliced Zednik’s neck. Zeds skated to the bench with the blood pouring out of him. It was nasty. But that was during the play of the game. there wasn’t anything Ollie could’ve done about that. But Ballard – well all I can say is hopefully he’s learned a valuable lesson about always being in control of your temper and your stick.

But seriously, I wouldn’t suspend him. He has to feel terrible enough already.

Now, Ovie? He needs to be sent up the river.

The one thing I especially hate about the Stars' inconsistency..

Is how we can make ANY goaltender look like Patrick-fucking-Roy. Seriously. Dan Ellis isn’t a stellar goaltender by any stretch of the imagination. Opening night was a DISGRACE. Remember we hung 5 on him a few nights later? Seriously! Rinse and repeat with a bunch of different teams. Remember everyone saying how well Toronto’s THIRD STRING goaltender was? Holy shit.
