Well, I am totally outside of this Space Time Continuum thing. I watched the Avs beat the Senators tonight, but I still haven’t watched the Avs beat the Leafs from last night. I figure I will tomorrow morning, while doing some laundry. Mid-day hockey. Yum.
I want to give a Boo-yaa to Sherry from Scarlett Ice. She is one of the few bloggers out there who is blogging after a loss. Not during, and not ignoring the team when they are down, but AFTER a loss. It shows guts, and I can respect it. Over all, it took one goal to energize the Sens, and they really poured it on after bringing the game within one. There is no good reason they couldn’t have tied it up. And, if they had met the team they faced in the first period, they would have tied it, if not won. Simply put, the Sens were a good fight, and you can’t get two points every night.
The goal against Theodore was just a tiny bit faster than the shot. Theo got a little on it, but not enough. If there is a goalie in the league who could use a shutout, it’s Jose. He had to rely on position and reflexes to get the job done, and tonight he had both. Richardson with a shortie. Sakic with the garbage in front. Two points is two points.
Note: Tomorrow night is the start of the Battle of Colorado. The CHL season starts with the Rocky Mountain Rage visiting the Colorado Eagles. If you are in Colorado, tape this one. It’s going to be on Altitude.
BTW: I am so happy I don’t have to rely on just OLN for my games. I can live without Center Ice when I have a local channel that broadcasts all the games. I get every Avs game, with a pretty good call. OLN should take note. A balanced call, with the action being called, rather than drifting all over the place. OLN should watch the hunting shows they broadcast, and try to STAY ON TARGET!!! (hunter Versus deer, whatever).
And: From the I-hate-to-say-I-told-you-so-but-there-you-have-it dept: Peter Forsberg has been hurt for the 5.378th time. He sprained his wrist, and left the game in the first period. And people wonder why I never wept when he left. He is an amazing player, but this isn’t touch football. The TFL, next on ESPN.
One response to “Avs beat Sens, but That Was Now”
Well I’m glad someone out there thinks my obsessive blogging is actually a good thing. 😛 I’m surprised though, many people out on the Sens blog front have been really quiet recently.
I found that the Sens had some of the same trouble last year with keeping up the momentum during games. It’s especially frustrating when you know the team’s capable of so much more.
Good game, too bad the teams won’t meet for awhile.
