Didn't even do it right. You're supposed to form an L with the dancing L's. Clearly you've never been in an NC State basketball thread.

We might.

Pens game: probably not.
CLB game 1: probably not.
CLB game 2: Front half of a back and back for them, so maybe.
Caps game: Front half of a back and back for them, so maybe.

Interestingly enough, both CLB and the Caps 2nd game of their back and back is @ Ottawa

Think Bob is already supposed to be in net tonight. Gotta think we'll face Murray vs. Pens, but frankly MAF has our number. I think the choice of goalie for the 2nd BJ game will depend on how he fares in the 1st.

We lost to Grubauer in a shoot out last time and beat the Caps handily in the 1st meeting. They are on a roll, know how well we match up against them, so I anticipate we'll see Holtby.

That's my thinking and why I feel we may see all #1s for a change.

new central scouting rankings are out and liljegren has fallen big time bc he had mono

As expected.

Not unexpected. I kind of wanted Ned to start Saturday, but as always Francis thinking about the long term. Ned gets to go back to Charlotte with a good feeling and 1.000 NHL sv% instead of getting potentially blitzed in the 2nd half of a back to back.

Hopefully that boosts his confidence and he has a strong 2nd half for Charlotte.

The Fainting Goat over his last two games:

7 goals against
50 saves

.877 SV%
3.5 GAA

I'm feeling confident....

I'm feeling quite confident that we will lose when we start Leighton against the Jackets. But if it means that Ward will be better against the Pens and Caps, then it's worth burning that game.

So I'm facing a quandary here. I want the Canes to win tomorrow, but as of late whichever team's jersey I'm wearing ends up losing the game. Do I wear a Pens jersey in hopes of continuing this jinx? Does realization of the jinx negate it? What to do?

The solution to the "jinx realization" is to burn the Pens Jersey. It is the only way. Thanks for taking one for the team.

What side do you want to be on? Do you wanna be the evil son-of-a-*****, uh, person who um wants to be the devil's favorite playtoy? Or do you wanna be on the side where you are God's disciple?

GP, there is a third option. If you're brave enough.
