So the offensive d man gets traded...not a single goal for the preds...yet the defensive d man got a goal for his team... explaaaaaane plllss
Some big games tonight. Even better, is that it's not two teams that we need to lose playing each other. Like, let's say, if the Blue Jackets ended up playing the Flyers. We all know that game would be going to OT :laugh
Pitt @ Detroit
Minn @ NJ (meh)
Dallas @ PHI
CBJ @ MTL
Caps @ Kings
Del Zotto isn't good and Slats probably made a good deal there.
Giroux now has 52 pts since Dec. 11, tops in NHL. Crosby is 2d in that span with 48.
Wayne Simmonds and the Flyers continue to roll. He's got 37 points his last 35 games. They lead Dallas, 2-0, through 15 minutes.
The Flyers best players are playing like their best players

13 PP goals for Simmonds. He plants himself around the net. He can't be moved. Second in PP goals behind Ovechkin.
Nash has 34 points in 53 games. Nash has 4 power play goals. If you bring up Nash as a disappointment,people make excuses for him.
It's amusing how Ovechkin always gets bashed for being a "Powerplay specialist" yet we bash Nash for scoring the majority of his goals 5 on 5.
