The first you can't really fault him for - that was Daley again.

But I wonder what Miller is doing at the other end, particularly when he went sprawling on Otter’s goal. That almost looked like a Marty Turco move.

After I moved, I found the program from the first Stars game I attended last year. In it was an article about Sean Avery with some of the most glowing comments from Brenden Morrow and Marty Turco. I’m not entirely sure about Brenden, but I know Marty despises the man.

There was a proposal at the GM's meeting

of adding something similar to the NCAA tournament where the bottom teams play for the right to be the 8th seed

Harry Neal is crazy

Rob Ray talkin top 16 teams in the LEAGUE play eachother. Would have to be 3 game series and would still go until July!

Buffalo

is clearly the glue-huffing capitol of the league.

Perfect the way it is.

I dont like the idea of adding teams, it would water down the firat 2 rounds

by stnlycupchmps99 on Mar 10, 2010 7:49 PM CST up reply actions  

That seems to be the general concensus from what I've read.

If you earn the 8th seed based on points, you are the 8th seed.

Hey guys

Anybody know what channel the game is on Time Warner?

Buffalo Announcers are geniuses

They just stated that dallas weak area is on defense.;

Besides, more exciting this way.

He’s taking up all the slack he can grab.

He has to have it

He probably knows we will Leht. pretty much the rest of the season if they drop this one.

by stnlycupchmps99 on Mar 10, 2010 8:15 PM CST up reply actions  

i wouldn't say its that crucial

its a road game against a top 3 east team and we have a 6 game homestand coming up. yea it is important, but i dont think we are giving up if we lose this one….

Not saying we will give up

But at somepoint you do have to see what we have in Kari.

by stnlycupchmps99 on Mar 10, 2010 8:17 PM CST up reply actions  

Yeah, definitely

Though Crawford will probably play the last winning goaltender from here out.

by laurenb on Mar 10, 2010 8:18 PM CST up reply actions  

Yeah, but if the defense is going to keep letting through 40+ shots a night

I don’t think Lehtonen can handle it right now.

And you can’t really pin this one completely on Marty. Too many times getting hung out to dry by the defense again.

by TracyJean on Mar 10, 2010 8:16 PM CST up reply actions  

I dont put this one on turco

He has played well, not sure any of the goals are all his fault.

Once again

The defense hangs him out to dry.

This team will not get better until it improves their play in the defensive zone.

by Brandon Bibb on Mar 10, 2010 8:28 PM CST up reply actions  

No matter how this season plays out

we need to acquire a #1 defenseman in the offseason or we can only expect the same thing next year.

They worked pretty hard for 0 tonight

Blerg. But it was an interesting game. :)

by laurenb on Mar 10, 2010 8:28 PM CST up reply actions  

I actually thought they would go 0-3

I’m mildly surprised they managed to pull it out in Washington.

I feel bad for Marty, though. After he saved their asses repeatedly on Monday, as Razor put it, he did everything he could again, particularly in the 3rd, to keep them in it and the team let him down.

by TracyJean on Mar 10, 2010 8:29 PM CST up reply actions  

I feel bad for him too

And I feel bad for Lehtonen… let’s hope he’s well conditioned, because he’s likely to get a hell of a work-out next time he starts.

by laurenb on Mar 10, 2010 8:32 PM CST up reply actions  

Apparently, not as well-conditioned as they'd like yet.

And, unfortunately, he’s had issues with conditioning in the past. I really hope he’s put those behind him.

is it the fact that our defensemen are just not talented enough to keep up?

or are they making too many mental mistakes that could partly be put on coaching?

-Steve Lavin on Mizzou v. Illinois

by Mizzou12 on Mar 10, 2010 8:33 PM CST reply actions  

Both, if you ask me

I’m leaning more toward base talent, but the leaving guys open in the slot over and over and over again has to be on the coaches as well.

by Brad Gardner on Mar 10, 2010 8:35 PM CST up reply actions  

yea i mean im just getting kind of annoyed of everyone saying we just need a #1 D man and our problems will all be fixed

its gotta be a deeper problem than that
