Pog?Pogge?Gerb?Gerbe?


Oh I'm sorry you meant Pogge, man are those Versus guys bad or what. Calling Gerbe, Gerb almost all night, though someone must have told him the correct pronunciation sometime throughout the night. Maybe it was Chris Simpson climbing around the bench in her heels to ask Nathan, seriously how annoying must it be to have her around, its one thing to have Ray between the benches, but to have those love bags prancing around the bench, come on Versus leave the coaches and players alone they have better things to worry about, keep the interviews for intermissions and post game. Third hit on Google for "Christine Simpson"Christine Simpson's Cleavage.

On a hockey note, Sabres didn't play that good in my opinion, they got completely out worked in the first before that power play, good goal by Staffy putting a puck to the net out front. Pogge really should have had that save short side but all night he was covering the pipes like the rookie he is. Paille on the second goal looks good for once by going to the net hard and getting a sick pass from Timmy, Pogge had no chance at all on this one. I have always been against rule 78.5 that Pominville got his goal disallowed by, honestly I feel that you should be allowed to score a goal by "directing" your body to move the puck, as long as you don't grab the puck with your hands. Really I mean even kicking the puck is pretty hard to do, why not allow that as long as you do it in a relatively safe manner. Why were the announcers praising Macarthur's play? In his 14 minutes of ice time I can't recall anything that stands out.

Good news is along with the Sabres win, Boston knocked off Carolina 5-1 which really hurts the Canes' chances of slipping into the playoffs. Florida won at home against the Devils which puts them also at 66 points with the Habs,Rangers and Sabres. Panthers and Habs have a game at hand over New York and Buffalo. Rangers play the Islanders tomorrow and Montreal heads to the Capital to face off against Ovie. Buffalo plays Philly on Thursday and expect Goose and Hank to return to the line up.

Also, the boys over at First Time Long Time did an intro post about my blog, make sure you check them out.
