It happened Sunday, but I can't get enough of this highlight clip. You have to watch this video. You have to see this goal. Not only is Pierre-Marc Bouchard's power play-defender splitting move absolutely ridiculous; he scores. On the backhand. It was in yesterday's post of amazing goals but of course it shows up in NHL.com's NHL Best of the Week as well.
Unbe-freakin-lievable. Oh - and check out Toews' goal against the Preds as well.
Enough of the past - that game was two losses ago, and the wind has long since left the Wild's sails, I'm sure. Moving on. I went 5-1 in my picks in last night's game polls; let's see if I can come close to that tonight.
Lighting @ Islanders: I'm going with the Islanders at home against a struggling team.
Sharks @ Flyers: I'll call the Flyers on this one; but I don't know if it's more out of hope than it is faith...
Thrashers @ Hurricanes: Thrashers win this one; quite possibly in the shoot out. I'm using reasoning with this one that only Tom (tpowell25) will understand.
Sabres @ Maple Leafs: I have no idea...I'll go with the Leafs at home.
Penguins @ Canadiens: I'll go with the Penguins in this game. For some reason I actually think this will be one of the most exciting of the night.
Blue Jackets @ Senators: While it may seem like a no-brainer to pick Ottawa, I think we can all agree that their inconsistency this year is a great reason for calling an upset here. That said, I'm going with the Sens.
Bruins @ Panthers: I'll take Bruins for $1.00, Alex
Canucks @ Predators: If one of the 'Nucks can pull a Toews or Bouchard against the Preds, I'm going with Vancouver. If not, I think the Predators take this.
Blues @ Kings: The Kings haven't gone on a lonnnng losing streak since September. They've lost 2 in a row; I think they win tonight.
Leave my logic alone; I'm workin' here.
Great slate tonight, people...let's Q it up here!
