Bad karma for taking a goalie out. What goes around comes around. Not worth it.

I hear both our goalies are awful, so does it matter?

It does matter. You wouldn't want retaliation in any form - even if it isn't now, but in the future. Hockey players, despite the head injuries, don't forget (thanks to the media too).

If Lundqvist is their MVP, then the logical retaliation from them is to eliminate the Sens MVP, and that could be Karlsson, Spezza Michalek or Aflredsson. Can't afford to lose anyone of them. And if Anderson was the recipient, joking aside, the Sens would be worse off.

Diddle it. Down with the King, I say.

Both Philly goalies are struggling. Pronger is out. Jagr is out. I hear Timonen may be out, too. If there was ever a time to have a home-and-home against the Flyers this may be it. Gotta hit Giroux hard and often -- that little conversation he had with Laviolette on 24/7 makes me think he may be susceptible to suggestions -- as in, back off or we will concuss you again.

I was at the game where we got creamed by the Flyers 7-2. Payback this weekend? Twofold?

Loved Anderson's tweet from last night:

Another awesome sellout #sens crowd! Gets me in #beastmode. Congrats to #prospect Mika Zibanejad on his GWG for the #wjc12 gold medal.

Hopefully he's getting back on his game.

Beastmode eh?

Heh heh.
