The highlight of that Jets game:

During a 5 on 1, they pulled out the Flying W.

Ron Wilson is fired, Randy Carlyle is the new coach for the Leafs. It was only a matter of time honestly. Hopefully this can turn their season around, even though theres only a few weeks left.

Anyway, intense game right now between the Hawks and Sens. So many good chances between both teams, hopefully the Hawks won't choke and we can grab this win, but thats asking a lot for them.

What a terrible break for the Bruins. Not only do they lose as a result of horseshit-grade officiating from both the referees and linesman-the latter of which missed an obvious Icing call that led to the winning goal being scored-Tuukka Rask left the game with about eleven minutes to go in the second period with what appeared to be an injury to his left leg.

Rask had to be helped off the ice by two of his teammates, during which he wasn't putting any weight on his left leg whatsoever.

I saw this play before I went to work, and I couldn't tell if he hyper-extended his knee or some sort of other leg injury. Since the injury wasn't updated after the game, I can only hope that it isn't serious, but it doesn't look like that's going to be the case.

So a week or so ago we bring in Quincey because we want more depth at the blue-line. Since then we've lost Ericsson, Lidstrom, Quincey for a couple (although he's back now) and now Kindl. With Pav and Howie out as well and both Bertuzzi and Zetterberg playing through injury we're not having much luck right now. Still, we've had next to no injuries throughout the rest of the season and everyone who's out at the moment is due back comfortably before the post-season. Hopefully we're just getting them all out of the way early.

Three assists from Bryan Little helps the Jets beat the Sabres 3-1. Keeping the point difference between the Panthers and them at two points. Hopefully they keep this up.

Nice to see the B's win back to back games for a change.

Montreal beats Edmonton tonight 5-3. Still doubt they'll make the playoffs.

Jets lose to the Canucks 3-2. Close game.
