Ugh. We had better win tonight.

My day just went from great to very, very depressing. Another game like last night would not be good for my mood.

Thanks, I hope it wil be soon. I found out today my grandmother has two brain tumors.

She survived breast cancer last year, so we’re holding a bit of optimism. But it’s still very scary.

one of the many stories of the season

by schtimpy27 on Jan 6, 2010 6:26 PM CST up reply actions  

Question:

I’ve been meaning to ask this to the community. Given all of the players available on the Stars roster and in the Stars system, what are your ideal D-man pairings? I ask, in part, because I came away rather impressed with Fortunius during his time with the big team.

by RPT on Jan 6, 2010 6:26 PM CST reply actions  

Easy.

Robidas – Grossman

Skrastins – Vishneskiy

Fortunus – Fistric

by Brandon Worley on Jan 6, 2010 6:28 PM CST up reply actions  

Already that disenfranchised with Daley, eh?

That to me has been arguably the most frustrating undertone of this season. Didn’t we all agree Crawford’s style should have been perfect for Daley?

by RPT on Jan 6, 2010 6:30 PM CST up reply actions  

I agree, I think sending Fortunus down instead of Niskanen was a BAD move.

I love the way Maxie plays.

Meanwhile, I concur with Brandon’s lines.

by Pat Iversen on Jan 6, 2010 6:31 PM CST up reply actions  

Well....

Niskanen can’t go down. Although it would be interesting to see how quickly he’d get picked up in waivers.

Defending Big D: A Dallas Stars blog on SBN: easy to use, free to join.

by Brandon Worley on Jan 6, 2010 6:33 PM CST up reply actions  

Huh. I thought Nisky was a 2-way contract. Guess not.

And yeah, he’d probably be picked up quickly. He and Brunnstrom are on my own personal trading block.

by Pat Iversen on Jan 6, 2010 6:34 PM CST up reply actions  

Well, technically yes.

But he’s played two many games, it nullifies the two-way part.

by Brandon Worley on Jan 6, 2010 6:35 PM CST up reply actions  

It's been amazing...

… to watch the evolution of the perceptions regarding that D-man class of Nisky, Grossman, and Fistrict.

That great first season might have been the worst thing to happen to Nisky. Has he even been CLOSE to reaching that point again since disappearing in the 2008 playoffs?

by RPT on Jan 6, 2010 6:35 PM CST up reply actions  

Well, I think he could've used a LOT more time in the minors.

Fistric really seems to have benefited from having that last year.

by Pat Iversen on Jan 6, 2010 6:37 PM CST up reply actions  

At this point, would losing Niskanen really be a loss? I mean, I know it would and I shouldn’t make light, and I still think he’ll be an able defenseman some day, but it seems like his growth has really hit a plateau. Stick it out awhile longer, or risk possibly losing him by sending him down to develop some more in the AHL?

Montreal has a spare goalie that could easily be a starter. They’ll need a back-up in return. Turco, frankly, isn’t much more than that now.

You said all I need to know

You probably have SBC as your DSL provider, right?

Westell’s usually are an older model.

And by resetting, what BW means is unplug the power cord from the back of the router, wait 30 seconds, and plug it back in.

It’s what us techies refer to as Power Cycling.

Oh sweet crickey! I just looked at the Star’s team stats: http://sports.yahoo.com/nhl/teams/dal/stats;_ylt=ArELLqwNXwEi1OUs.pIXcvRC2bYF

I had no idea that the B-Rad line dominated the scoring as much as they did. Last time I really looked, I thought the top two lines were pretty even. What happened? Where did everyone else go?

by schtimpy27 on Jan 6, 2010 7:54 PM CST reply actions  

and damn, B-Rad has got to work on the +/-. It has pretty much plagued him all his career, but seriously. he’s the only top 10 scoring player with a minus. You have to defend, too, sweetie. Ok?

that was always Mathieu’s problem (I went over that extensively on my blog once when i was really bored). I was about to attribute that to Brad, because there is a lot of truth to that. But looking at the rest of the top 10, they have as many or more PPP this season, and are way plus.

Totally killed my theory. =\

That was huge killing off that penalty.
