Pretty crazy depth when you have a player the quality of Higgins on your 4th line... and we still need a 2/3 center and a top-6 winger by the deadline IMO.

The line up alone makes this game extra interesting.

Then there's that undefeated (in reg. time) Chicago thing.
Less Canucks embarrassment please.

Gotta think this is a tough one for the boys to win. The shit-hawks are on fire and we've looked weak the past few games. Hopefully VCRs excellent road record will factor in and they can out skate these guys.
Should be a good one and looking for BOOTHY(ohhhh yes RD, BOOTHY) to be a factor.

I call BOOTHY with the OT winner

Hmmm, using a Booth to bait a bonehead... cruel and devoid of challenge, but I like it.

BOOTHY is his last goat...unless u count re-cycling his anti-crush on Kassian.

This is Schneiders big chance to grab the starter reigns and not let go. If he can come up with a huge game it'll go along way towards securing his job. Coincidentally, another weak effort brings more doubters out of the woodwork. Personally I think he's going to be just fine. He has the right attitude and demeanor to play as a #1 goalie in this league.

Note that last year he got quite a few of the big game starts and turned in excellent performances. I think he has the ability to raise his game when it matters the most which has more or less eluded Luongo in his career to this point.

If played properly tonight, Keith and Seabrook will be seeing the same doctor tomorrow.

Can this team's powerplay get any worse?

Our point men make such poor decisions with the puck and none of them can make a pass under pressure.
