In NHL 10 the slap pass is a very effective way to score goals.

And the thing was he shot it as well.. Sure he may have been looking pass, but if you have nothing, throw it on net and get rebounds.

Nah...
I won’t fault Fabian for that… he had a nice shot, got a little too over anxious with the stick.
Didn’t hurt that there wasn’t going to be a call until Gilbert acted like he was shot by a guy on a grassy knoll.

Please let that change to Cogliano's goal.

I don't get it
In October the score would have been 5-2. Can anybody remember the last time the Stars scored 4+?
Know what the Stars 4th line misses?
Sutherby.
He seems to be the glue for that line.

agreed
not sure why he sits sometimes, yeah i know he has been injured, but sometimes he is a healthy scratch.
I'll have to look at it, but I'm pretty sure he's been one of the better players
When it comes to peripheral stats. Brandon B might have a better idea though. I could be wrong.

The moral victories are killing me
Why does it always seem to take soft goals and overtime for these guys to win? Don’t get me wrong, I’m not turning on my boys but it’s frustrating.
True enough..
I’ll take repeated one point OT games until they get right. At least they are moving in the right direction standings wise.

See what I mean about Daley?
Right there… He had the puck low.. he was backed up… And he gave the puck of instead of taking a shot because it looked like he realized he was too low for OT.

Daley and Ribeiro
Are easily my most frustrating players. It almost seems like they think too much
Meanwhile...
Niskanen almost pinches low too much..

I must say
Marty’s glove is looking like the one that stoned Campbell in the 2nd round two years ago.
Skills contest to decide the game!

I know I (wrongfully) ragged Fabian for his defense, but christ give him a chance to show his offense.
Damnit!!
He had it… and it just got past him…

well it sucks that we only got one point
but at least James Neal seems like he’s back on track. Benn is looking good too. We just have to learn that we need to sustain the attack for a full 60 minutes. Playing “not to lose” usually winds up in losing.
I must have this thing for hockey boys from Whitby with the initials JN.
Please let this be the last year for this sham
It’s a joke. The teams that get extra points because of them almost always flame out come playoff time.

YNWA Because do you really want to root for ManU?
Nah...
Most owners love it as well… Because for all the bad the extra point does, the one thing good it does is keep the playoff races tight… And tight playoff races for the 10th, 11th, 12th and even 13th place teams means more money at the box office from fans who haven’t lost interest.

Went the last 45 minutes without a goal
Clearly didn’t deserve the win.

Unrealted...
But in the shootout…which has nothing to do with hockey….at least test the goaltender. They had Neal (missed shot), Ribeiro (just lost it), Morrow (hit the post)
At least put some rubber on the damned net, for the love of the hockey gods.
You know
I caught grief from some of our readers for suggesting Neal needs to either find another move, or Crawford needs to find another player to fill his spot in the shootout.
I stand by that opinion.

They need to think outside of the box and try player that may not be the first ones you think of.
Sorta like when they threw Robi in there.
ding ding ding
score … a direct hit! if only…

GO STARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GO STARS!!! Man I miss fox sports sw. There are way more commercials on the oilers channel and the announcers suck! They said the stars got a penalty when they had the puck! How can they have a penalty when they have the puck at the same time lol. Missed you ralph and razor!
