| "twoadore" |
indulged in brooklyn local 2 last night while watching the sabres continue to ramble on this road trip...the twoadore thing?...ummm...the joker and i got a good laugh, is all...
clocking in at 9%, local 2 is a big belgian strong ale...w00t!...thoroughly enjoyable, as were the sabres last night...
btw, sabres players, don't forget to tip your doorman...patty lalime is one of the best in the history of the nhl...of course, please do it surreptitiously...
take thomas vanek's overtime goal vs. washington--where he found something extra at the end of his shift--and combine that with jason pomminville's short-handed overtime winner vs. the sens in the '06 playoffs, and you have a reasonable composite of drew stafford's overtime game-winner last night...
~~~~~~~~~~
jhonas enroth got the win last night...have the sabres unwittingly found a transitioning formula for young goalies?
they've got enroth getting plenty of experience in portland, fly him in for his one game, then it's back to portland...it's the second time with this scenario...they did it last back in february after miller's debacle vs. the islanders (7-6 ot loss)...miller got completely away from the game, enroth got the shootout win and lalime took his usual spot on the bench opening and closing the door...
miller came back and did not allow more than three goals during a 10-game stretch and the team went 5-3-2...enroth did his part once again and we'll see what happens this time 'round...
a quick note on enroth...paul hamilton asked him how he prepared for the game, if he watched tape of the team he was about to face...enroth said he didn't watch any tape, he just went in and took the game as it came...
~~~~~~~~~~
seven of eight points on this road-trip...wins vs. philadelphia on saturday and minnesota yesterday, without thier designated #1 center, derek roy...they're without a true #2 as tim connolly seems shot and is more a bottom-six...their #1 utility-man, jochen hecht, was out with an injury...recently acquired forward, brad boyes, has been shifted from wing to center....

ROB "FRIGGEN" NIEDERMAYER!!!
how does it feel?...choose a cliche', but the fact is, after 53 games without a goal, he finally broke through...can you see the relief in his face?...
