1. I hate the Rangers.
2. It was clearly amateur A/V night. For starters, the video was so fuzzy that I thought maybe I was watching a replay of a 1970s game. The person running the main camera clearly had never shot video for a hockey game before, and I am pretty sure had not watched much hockey. The camera was behind the play almost as much as it was on the play. For approximately 5 minutes of the second period, there was almost no sound - just an odd rushing sound with a hint of the play call in the background. Then they began to broadcast the radio call, with the label "audio difficulties" over the poor video of the game. I would have thought the real "audio difficulties" would have come when there was no sound. And I really did not need the label to know they were having "audio difficulties." I would have preferred to have full-view of the crappy video.
3. For the Sabres ONLY goal, both of the guys I chose in the pick em league from the Rangers were on the ice. There's -20 points. I guess that is my punishment for picking Rangers.
4. At one point, Pominville got hit and sent to the ice. The camera zoomed in on his face, showing him laying there with his mouth gaping open like a fish and looking surprised that he was hit. Apparently, he forgot he played in the NHL. From the way the rest of the team played the game, I'd say they all forgot they played in the NHL.
5. Vanek SUCKS! Watching him play for 8 million or whatever it is the Sabres are paying him is so frustrating.
6. The Sabres, of late, seem to not understand two fundamentals of hockey. Fancy passes mean nothing if you NEVER get a shot on net. And a power play means you have one more guy on the ice than the other team - you should be playing in their offense zone.
7. The Sabres lost.
8. Did I mention that I HATE the Rangers?

I don't hate the Rangers, but I do hate Sean Avery. He got into a pre-game shoving match with one of the Leafs a couple of months ago (Jason Blake or Bryan McCabe?), and I wanted the Leafs player to beat his ass.
And speaking of hockey, did you see Rick Nash's goal against the Coyotes last night?
You can find a good video here:

I saw that on SportsCenter this morning. I'm totally gonna have to do that at BUNS this week.
I think that is Nash's second highlight goal this week. I am pretty sure he was the one who put it through his legs and up into the top of the net a few nights ago. I told Phollower that if that is what you have to do to score I goal, I will never score a goal!
Yes, I saw that other Nash goal, too. Pretty amazing!
I had a student from Columbus a couple of years ago; she lived there when he first started playing for the Blue Jackets. She freakin' met him at a party in some guy's basement!
I just about shit when she told me about it. "Yea, and I met some really big guy, too, named Rick Nash or something. Have you ever heard of him?"
Apparently he didn't really know anyone when he first moved there and ended up hanging out with some of her friends somehow.
