I apologize for missing Friday. I was in Delaware and didn't get home until super late, followed by a day trip to Dallas for the weekend so time was not in high supply. I will do a make-up entry tomorrow. Additionally, I'm trying something new this entry: Video!
Unfortunately, it took a couple of tries to get things just right so the first game or two of this update will have sparse information. Let's just get started. First up, the Sabers at home.
Here is PMush scoring!
Unfortunately, that was the only good thing to happen to us this game.
Next up, Ducks on the road!
A well taken RF goal.
And there here is This Is A Stickup scoring, but only in picture form.
Those were the only highlights I managed.
Ok, on to this game against the Canadiens, where I have an actual lot of highlights to get through.
Diqnol leaves it for Asiina, who passes it back. Diq then looks up and sees PMush and hits a nice cross rink pass. He follows his own pass to the backdoor and when PMush spots him and gives it back, Diq is on hand to make sure.
The third period and overtime were uneventful so it went to a shootout which is presented here in it's entirety.
Final wrap up for this game
Glad that we won the shootout since I recorded it, ha. A nice performance all around.
Game four today is against the Ducks, who we played two games ago. We won the last one so I am hopeful that this one will go equally as well.
We enter this clip down 1-0
Ok, so we're down 2-0.
Uhhh... 3-0. He scored from the blue line, wtf bird???? This is not going like the last game...
Hey, a goal! With less than thirty seconds to go in the second period Murmur Twin brings it around the net and tees up busb. Busb hits a nice shot but the goalie saves it. However, the goalie isn't able to keep hold of it and spills it into the path of Murmur Twin, who was following up and taps it in. Great! Perhaps some momentum going into the third period!
Uh, nope. No momentum. We get caught with our pants down during an ill timed line change. Bummer.
Well, you win some, you lose some, it can't be that big of a de-
Uhhhhh.... okay. I'm sorry? This is the first time I have seen such an email. I hope I don't get fired.
A final matchup today, this against the Canucks.
Busb elbows a guy, takes the puck, and scores from an extreme angle. 1-0. Nicely done.
About the middle of the first period, it is 1-1. Within a minute of that last goal, the Canucks are up 2-1 against us. Bleh. The first period ends that way. On to the second.
Five minutes into the second, Poque snags the puck and slides it to Podima. Pod loses it but Stickup is the first to the puck. He skates around the back of the neck and puts it away.
Fisk wins the faceoff and hits the puck back to Keane. He lays it off to Pinterest Mom. PMom lays it back off to Fisk and a snapshot right at the goalie. The goalie spills it and Fisk races up and puts it in the net.
I didn't get this video done right but Fisk puts this one in the back of the net, too. 4-2.
From a faceoff, the Canucks take a quick attack the length of the ice and put it away. 4-3.
I missed the final goal, but PMush made it 5-3 with less than a minute to go, putting it away against an empty net.
With 17 games to go, we're 10 points safe from being left out of the playoffs. An angry email from the board aside, we're continuing to keep our distance. We have gone 6-4 in our last 10. The 9th place team has gone 6-4 in their last ten, so while we didn't gain ground to safety, we didn't lose any either. Also, 4th place has gone 2-7-1 in the same span, meaning we are only 2 points away from having a home playoff series to start.
Let's wrap this up. See everyone tomorrow!
