Columbus BJs 1/11/04

LA Times says Martin Gerber in net vs Columbus.

That's fine. They suck, but we'll screw it up anyway.

2-1 Ducks.

We're going to win this one with the worst team in the NHL just to put them at the top of the race for Ovechkin and us out of the race for the first four picks (so bye bye Barker).

Can someone le me know???
thanks

What about reading that one?

I merged this thread

Denis has started the last few games, and Brathwaite has been sucking his last couple of starts. Even though it would be his third game in four nights, I wouldn't be surprised to see Denis in net. If Freddy is in, however, should be an easy game for the Ducks.

why predict scores?
it never helps..
we have to start winning our games.. dam oilers won theirs..

If the Ducks can't win against the worst team in the conference who played the night before and should be tired...then I will be 100% certain that there are no playoffs this year for Anaheim.

For those who can't watch, the only changes in line combos for this game is an all-new fourth line:
Burnett-Martensson-Lupul

Similar to last game so far: a million shots and no goals.

Burnett almost had one there. I'm glad he kept playing, rather than costing us a power play by trying to avenge the hit on Fedorov.

The game's still young, though.

*sigh*

We dominated, Andy was a madman, but it's still scoreless.

Krog deserved this healthy scratch. Good to see Martensson back.

Wow. No one there for the rebound. I'm amazed.

This is a boring period. Nice defensive play by Fedorov. Then he ruined it by ALMOST driving to the net but instead dishing off and heading for the perimeter.

OH! Vish on the backhand. Holy crap.

Sweet move by him and Lupul both.

Awesome play. Who got hurt from Columbus, i didnt catch his name.

Sanderson did on the play with Salei, if that's what you're thinking of.

why start gerber tonight? babcock hates my fantasy team :cry: :joker:
seriously though, that doesn't inspire much confidence in jiggy after he got run out of the crease in the last game. what gives?

Zherdev's hurt now, too.

Time for Gerbs to get a start, that's all. He's a bit more steady, anyway. You don't lose anything in the substitution against a low-level offensive team like Columbus.

Man, do I feel smart for passing up on Jiggy and taking Clouts as my goalie instead. I have Gerbs on my team as well, so that makes it even better.

Rucchin provided a perfect screen for Zherdev, there. I don't know where the hell he was going. I don't know where the hell Sauer went, either.

4th line draws a penalty. They've been pretty good, obivously.

Big fat F on the power play again.

Simpson=sniper. 3 goals in 3 games!!!!!!!!

That is hilarious. 4th line again, too.

Simpson=sniper. 3 goals in 3 games!!!!!!!!

Maybe he is a decent player after all.

No fear, Simpson will rescue us again.

Riiiiiiick Naaash!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

lol, NOW there's a call. Never mind, it's not even remarkable anymore.

This is where our PK will choke I think.

No chance for them to choke as the refs even it up.

booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! The RallyKiller cry of disgust. 4 min power play in OT and zippo.

Do any of you still think that this team is good enough to make the playoffs?

Gotta give credit to Denis, unbelieveable in OT. About your question, I've been optimistic but thats starting to fade. We need to go on a big run and very soon.

I can't believe that this team was one win from the stanley cup. It is tearing me up inside. :mad:

Not all that unbelievable. Everyone and their mom knew Fedorov was the shooter. It takes less time for the goalie to slide two feet to his left than it does the puck to travel the 40ft from Havelid to Fedorov.

I was trying to be optimistic about this team for a long time...well thats over...You can't tie the last place team in your conference on a night when that team is tired from playing the previous day...

No playoffs this year guys.

I was watching the game with a couple of friends. When the Ducks went ahead 2-1 in the 3rd period, I told them the Ducks would find a way to screw it up. Sure enough.

We had a lot of chances on the PP in OT, but couldn't bury it. :cry:

:cry:
at least we got a point.. ;)

Doesn't really matter, because this team is not making the playoffs anyways.

WoW we can't even win at home anymore. The powerplay in OT was terrible. After the timeout you would think we would change the approach a little. I was hoping chistov would get a chance. He could go down low and try to work the across the crease pass, if it doesn't work atleast we have denis guessing a little. Then have Feds in the middle point and try sykora on the other side. So when chistov goes down low so does sykora. This way we have rucchin, chistov and sykora down low with feds out for a one timer, if nothing is there. But Babs sends the same guys out to try the same play which clearly wasn't working. All I'm asking for now is a few wins against the kings, one against the aves. As for the playoffs, I am losing hope fast.

there's still hope..
"HELP ME OBI WON KANOBI... YOU'RE MY ONLY HOPE...."

Pass it to Fedorov!

pass it to whoever,as long as the puck goes in,geez..2 goals on 43 shots :dunno: ..im not giving up yet,when their officialy out then not much u can do there

Riiiiiiick Naaash!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:D
