Thursday, March 4, 2010 at 1:50PM | IvanDaTerrible This is the birthday cake I woke up to this morning... enjoy.
I'll save you all a piece. It might be a good idea to mention that I'll be following Russell's example and tying the knot later this month. Wish me luck Groundhogs!
For the next 2 weeks, we switch our allegiances from our home town to our country. Before we head off on our break to watch the Canadians bring home the gold, where it belongs, we bring you one last show to catch you up on all the big news out of Ottawa this week, including:
Caps 5 - Sens 6
Sens 1 - Detroit 4
Sens 4 - Isles 3
After going toe-to-toe with the Mighty Capitals and coming out on top, the Sens went on to 2 sub-par performances but managed to get one win out of it. Let's mark it up to looking forward to the O-break. The important thing is they finished on a positive note.
There was lots of news off the ice this week as Murray had his option year picked up and signed on to be GM for at least one more year and this sparked a very well thought-out, intelligent, cohesive discussion. WE KNOW! We were surprised too!
Murray then went on to dispose of PEE-card and a 2nd rounder to, who else, Carolina for versatile veteran Matt Cullen. We all agree this was a solid move but we all also agree it must be leading to at least one more deal for a D-man. The question is, what type of D-man will Murray get and who might be packaged to bring him in? The future of poor ol' Cheech is also discussed as well as the likely plans for A-train.
Of course, we speak of the Olympics, the SU get together from last weekend (where we raised $270 for the Rene Faucher Fund), enjoyed some Beau's and made some new friends with the ground hogs. Stooli has the News, we have an e-mail and another voice mail from a British listener who sounds suspiciously like an old jewish woman from Florida.
Hockey Poolies, don't forget to get your subs in to Russell before the end of the Olympic break!
See you in two weeks. GO CANADA GOLD!
Seems like we couldn't stay on one subject tonight. This show was swinging back and forth like a banana hammock, something that Russell had his fill of down in Punta Cana. When will you Euros ever learn?
Yes, Russell is back this week, just in time to see the winning streak come to an end in sucky fashion to the Leaftards. But there were 2 other games in there worth talking about:
Coconuts 1 - Sens 3
Sens 0 - Leafs 5 (huh?!)
Flames 2 - Sens 3
Go figure they knock off some of the best teams in the league for a month then lose to the doormats. It always sucks to fall to those fools but there is a silver lining to the loss. We explain.
Of course, the Olympics are a topic this week and we look at who scares us, what to do about Getzlaf and why we're suddenly pumped-up about the coming games.
We also discuss the Kovalchuk and Lehtonen trades, Ovechkin destroying Hal Gill, another Ray Emery incident, an update on the Sens Underground get-together this weekend, StooLi reads the News and we have your e-mails.
Look at all the good stuff we give you, just not in an organized fashion this week! Sometimes we get distracted by the pretty colours.
Russell is away on his PIGMAN honeymoon and StooLi did WHAT?
Holy crap we are on a 10 game win streak and Jason Spezza is the teams GO TO guy? Who’s freaking Ottawa Senators are we watching?
Shredder and StooLi mourn the loss of Dion and as always ramble on over the Spezza goal streak, the Cowan Signing, Karlsons new Jesus status and as always the non-goalie . Oh yeah and the 3 wins this week
Sens 4 – Pittsburg 1
Montreal 2 – Sens 3
Sens 4 – Buffalo 2
Ya BABY 10 in a ROW! Bring it Vancouver, the Leafs suck!
One has to wonder what Russell is doing right now? Hmmmmmm
