Let's Do a Little Recap

Well effing highlights won't work for me this morning, anything to piss me off I guess. Guess I'll recap or something.

PBURGH
The Pens played the lowly Thrashers, legitimate MVP candidate Shrek had 4 points, 2 goals, 2 assists, while Fleury came back from Vaginitis and made 28 saves on a bunch of nobodies. Crosby had 2 assists, but was a -1 on the game. Interestingly enough, he logged a minute less of ice time than even Jordan Staal did. 4 minutes less than Malkin. If anyone can find a video of Crosby punching that guy on the ice, I need to see it, I hear it's hilarious.



ILLADELPH
Flyers went up to Montreal and faced their backup goalie, Halak, and got smoked early. A 3-0 deficit in the 1st isn't conducive to winning Antero. Anyways, that Russian Queen Kovalev met some milestone, but no one outside Quebec gave a damn. Apparent MVP candidate Simon Gagne put up bricks across the board except for that -1, same with Carter and Richards. Atleast Arron Asham was there to pick up the offensive slack!


B-LO
Sabres were off partying at Temple.

D.C.
Washington hosted the Blues, who are about as terrible as it gets right now. It's gotta be Lightning, Atlanta, St. Louis as the worst teams out there. At least St. Louis has injuries as an excuse. Semin got hurt again, after he was on the ground he got cross-checked in the back, pretty much the exact spot of his prior injury. Looked like it hurt like a mother. Uhhhhh, MVP candidate Alex Ovechkin scored another goal. Hershey Bears goalie Simeon Varlamov got the start at home and won in his home debut. Tomas Fleshlight also scored for the Caps, he's pretty fun to watch. Kudos out to my boy, random fat black scalper man, who went and found us some tickets after the game sold out on Ovechkin bobblehead night. Oh yeah, I've got an Ovechkin bobblehead, missing tooth and all.



One more I guess, Detroit thumped San Jose. Sweet.

Goat of the Week coming up, should be an easy guess for astute hockey fans.
