I’ll grant you, Joe B. may indeed sport some–shall we say, “unfortunate”–neck wear from time to time. But when it comes to sartorial abominations in the Hockey Universe, nobody can hold a candle to “the Great Satan”, Don Cherry…

Liked the caption on the Orlov pic–LMAO! Agree with this post: this game stunk, but most of them won’t (we hope).

As for a new nickname for our current #1 goaltender, I offer these options:

–”Bez branek pro Vás: návrat do jednoho roku“ (Czech: “No Goal for You: Come Back, One Year!”)
–”Gut(s) Czech”
–”Why the $%*# do I have to keep skating behind the net?!?!”
–”Der Volkstorwart“ (German: “The Peoples’ Goalie”)
–”Brankář lidu” (Czech: same thing)Please discuss…

Welcome, Ana! Your recap was better than the game. Actually thankful for the back-to-back because hopefully a good game tonight will wipe out the memory of this debacle.

I agree, great recap, Ana!

17 shots ain’t gonna cut it! Systems or not, we’ve got too much talent to not be able to direct shots on net. #8 and #28 have always had their “spray and pray” games, but it’s becoming systemic to the entire team.
