Salo is actually a Finn ;)

I hope it goes better for us in a couple of months in Turin. Hopefully Forsberg won't fake a injury then...

you get a "goal" for every category you're ahead in, so if you're leading in 7 categories and your opponent in 1 (the rest tied) you're up 7-1

that's why having good goalies is key since they can affect 4 out of 11 categories

He's been good in his 8-game NHL career, but he's not even the starting goalie on his team yet.

That's because Renney is a fool. He has dominated in the Swedish league for years, he's a damn good goalie. Will be ranked as a top 10 goalie next season.
 
Just how good are the Habs this year! :D

Probably true that, they're a class apart this season.

So are the Red Wings in the West.
 
from sportsnet:
Jiri Fischer collapses on Red Wing bench

The player survives total heart stoppage, and the remainder of the Detroit-Nashville game is cancelled.
DETROIT (AP-CP) -- Detroit Red Wings defenceman Jiri Fischer suffered a seizure and had his heart stop on the team's bench during the first period of an NHL game against the Nashville Predators on Monday night.
Fischer was given CPR at the bench by team physician Dr. Tony Colucci before the 25-year-old native of the Czech Republic was removed on a stretcher. He was taken to hospital and listed in stable condition.
"His heart was stopped," Red Wings coach Mike Babcock said. "They hooked up the auto defibrillator and shocked him."
Team spokesman John Hahn said Fischer was taken to Detroit Receiving Hospital and was stable, breathing on his own and responsive.
"It's our understanding, the reports from the hospital, that he is fine and he will be fine," Babcock said.
Play did not resume and the game was called with 7:31 left in the first period. Nashville was leading 1-0 at the time.
Fischer was worked on by medical personnel for several minutes before being wheeled back toward the Red Wings dressing room.
Play was stopped after the Wings alerted officials to a problem on the bench. The teams were immediately sent to their dressing rooms, but some Detroit players remained near the bench and looked on while CPR was administered.
"First of all, everybody is definitely caught by surprise," Red Wings captain Steve Yzerman said. "We turn and see Jiri laying between the boards and the bench and we're not sure why.
"You fear for the guy's life at that moment. I can't remember anything like that."
Yzerman and Brendan Shanahan stayed on the ice and helped Fischer's fiancee, Avery, across the surface to be with him.
"Obviously, she was very worried and concerned. She just wanted to be next to Jiri," said Shanahan.
The decision was made to resurface the ice then, and the remaining time was to be added to the second period.
The game was later called.
"It was obvious to everybody involved that it was the right decision," Predators coach Barry Trotz said. "It was very disturbing to both sides and I think the NHL recognized it, the players recognized it. To be quite honest, the game became very secondary. When a friend or a teammate was in danger like Jiri was in, then the decision was made for everybody to reschedule it."
It was not immediately clear whether the game would be played in its entirety or resume from the point of the stoppage.
"Our primary objective is that Jiri is taken care of," Trotz said.
Fans at Joe Louis Arena were not immediately told what was happening and many were shown talking on cellphones. An in-house PA announcer later told the crowd that Fischer was "alert and responsive" more than 40 minutes after play was stopped. A loud cheer went up.
Fischer, who played for the QMJHL's Hull Olympiques, is in his sixth NHL season and won a Stanley Cup with Detroit in 2002.
He was diagnosed with a heart abnormality in September 2002, causing him to miss two days of practice. The problem was found on an electrocardiogram as part of a routine battery of tests during the Red Wings' pre-season physicals. When the result was abnormal, Fischer was given a stress test that he passed.
"There is a little abnormality, but nothing that will stop me from playing," Fischer said at the time. "It's nothing that will bother me emotionally."
He said that his heart essentially is a little thicker than normal.
"I wasn't scared about the abnormality," Fischer said. "But I was scared about not playing hockey again. That was a shock for me."

that's the spirit! get well soon!!! :(
 
Hope he's ok. I've seen some of the footage and it's quite scary. As long as he pulls through, and they find out what caused this. It puts hockey into a secondary position.

Ryan Flynn for the Kings (Goon-esque FW) got in a fistfight with a Hawk, took a punch, got thrown to the ice, and was knocked unconscious. Game delayed for 5 minutes and they had to stabalize him on a stretcher - blood everywhere.

I love this game!

The Ducks could give us more of a game, at this point, btw.

Svatos(Avs player) got 3 more points yesterday, he's close to Ovechkin and Crosby now in rookie points. Ovechkin and Crosby was picked first in the draft Svatos 216th something :D
