The league board has suspended Edmonton Oilers player Sheldon Souray for 7 games for injuring Matt Duchene of Colorado Avalanche. Duchene gone for a month, Sabres on the wrong end this time and my boy Richards takes down the 1st star again. That's a wrap! http://www.ehechockey.com/EHEC.zip

Damn Radim Vrbata. I want him to suck so I can bench him but in limited icetime the guy is straight up getting the job done. So far he's put up 6 goals, 7 assists, and a plus/minus of +6 in 21 games. With Tikhonov and Boedker knocking on the door I might have to pick a different floater to scratch.

Martin Hanzal's been a monster so far this year. As much as I love Shane Doan, I think Hanzal has actually been the team MVP thus far.

Bah, what a disaster. Connolly breaks through in a big way, the PP is fantastic, but the PK sucked ass. Figures, the last few games the offense has been lagging and the defense stellar. Polar opposite tonight.

At least Portland picked up a shutout..

****ing Souray, what a little *****, taking out an 18 year old? Wow. Nice work big guy.
