I used to have a poster of the Avalanche coach's sister on my wall.
That’s something I’d never thought I would say.

Climie showed his strength and weakness in one save.
Great reflexes, poor control of the rebound.

Stars are in full test mode:

Cammi Granato
Ha! I love it! And Duh on my part, did not put 2 + 2 together. Or should I say Granato + Granato.

2nd period about to start.
I’m actually hoping for more Avs shots, want to see climie get tested again.

Neal with even more oppotunities right away.

Climie with a HORRIBLE play of the puck
But is bailed out with a whiff by the Avs player, and a nice little bounce in front.
Defending Big D: A Dallas Stars blog on SBN: easy to use, free to join.
Niskanen back in the penalty box.
PK time.

The clock seems like it's running faster than normal.

Well, the Stars are getting some good chances.
Not seeing a lot of Ribeiro, Modano, Morrison, Lehtinen. Tippett is really playing the youngsters a lot on special teams, which is great to see.
Defending Big D: A Dallas Stars blog on SBN: easy to use, free to join.
Wow, Climie barely got a piece of that one.
Defending Big D: A Dallas Stars blog on SBN: easy to use, free to join.
Keep playing the youngsters!
I was hoping Tipp would do this with these last games. I was also hoping it would be a little more exciting. But Climie probably thinks it’s been exciting enough.
Supporting your local ice troll, 24/7/365
I think the Stars are getting some decent chances, but honestly I'd like to see some better passes near the net.

Well, that was bound to happen eventually.
Defending Big D: A Dallas Stars blog on SBN: easy to use, free to join.
So far.....
Four of the goals Climie has allowed have been deflections.
Defending Big D: A Dallas Stars blog on SBN: easy to use, free to join.
Honestly....You'd have to think Ribiero could really do some damage if he was on the ice more.
Gotta admire Tippett for sticking by his plan.
Defending Big D: A Dallas Stars blog on SBN: easy to use, free to join.
Another really quick period.
Stars down 1-0 after another deflection on the PK.

To be as boring uneventful as this game has been, it has gone by really fast.
Supporting your local ice troll, 24/7/365
Yeah.
It’s been interesting. Feels like a preseason game.

PP for the Stars!
Need to see more big shots from the point by Vishnevskiy.

Budaj just stoned Eriksson in front after some nifty passing.

That was all caused by some SICK moves by Vishnevskiy

Vishnevskiy was channeling Zubov on that last PP goal.

Good to see Wandell showing some class after he hit him in the face.

Vishnevskiy is having one hell of a game.

Vish has had a pretty special game.
But he could be a liability on the blue line against better teams. But man is he confident. Wow.

Wow what a great save that was.

Awwww DAMN.
From a bad angle off Climie.

Looked like that went off the defenseman.

Yeah, its frustrating.
it’s like the equivalent of a pitcher who throws 103 mph, but can’t come near the strike zone with a ten foot pole.

by Brandon Worley on Apr 9, 2009 10:13 PM CDT up reply actions
I wouldn't say it's that bad
Because a pitcher without a tad bit of control would never make it. It’s more like he’s a nibbler with an 87 mph fast ball.
Ok that may be a better comparison.

OT here we come.
I want to see Vishnevskiy just unleash at the net.

Ivan with another big shot.
And then he made the great defensive play!

Yup.
He’s had a great game. But this has been the equivalent of an AHL game.

Except with a bigger shot.

He's really stood out.
Great puck handling, good speed, incredible vision. And he can make some defensive plays every now and then.
