I've decided on wearing my Hanzal jersey as an omen of good luck towards having him in the line up. Hopefully he's so hot right now

Will be watching from work tonight. Quest for 1K is going strong.

Hopefully we get another good game.

Coyotes eat ducks for breakfast, thats just science. A goose might stand a chance, those things are just evil.

A regulation win would be in order for tonight for the home team. Same refs as last time?

 

[GiveAFlyingPuck]

Just checked. Different refs, so we won't have to deal with non-calls from the previous set. May have to deal with non-calls from these, though.

Oh it's such a shame that I've come down with this mystery illness and I've had to take the day off. Guess I'll have to watch the game.

Id love to see Yotes earn 3 or 4 points against the ducks.

I'm all for that........as long as it's called evenly. Ducks have #1 power play in the league and Yotes PPK, surprisingly, is middle of the pack.

I'm perfectly happy with non-calls, so long as its even. Prefer it that way actually.

Since I'm the one that originally brought it up (actually it was Luke Lapinski, saying that - after scoring on Fasth - now Korpikoski is expanding his range in being able to beat goaltenders who aren't fellow Finns), I did a little research, and this sentence from the Wikipedia entry seems to sum it up:

"Sometimes the term Scandinavia is also taken to include Iceland, the Faroe Islands, and Finland, on account of their historical association with the Scandinavian countries. Such usage, however, may be considered inaccurate in the area itself, where the term Nordic countries instead refers to this broader group"

(which also explains why Boedker89 objected)

Correct. Off-topic, but I have a number of Norwegian friends who firmly believe Scandinavia consists of Sweden, Norway, and Denmark only. Their languages are similar, Finland is not.

Has this ever happened before a team playing the same team for 3 straight games? Or only happens in a shortened season?

Hopefully we get another good game.

Yes. Isles and Devils a couple seasons ago. There were 2 more teams that did but I can't remember who.

Why is Gangnam Style still playing inside Jobing.com?

 

[pacerhimself]

Slow start for the Coyotes shot wise but a few good breaks which is unusual.

I'm not sure who they put in charge of the music the last couple years, but yeah they keep doing that. That's not even the worst offender though, sometimes they actually bring out Kesha

 

[ClassLessCoyote]

Play is even right now
