Okay. We’ve all heard the stories… Blackhawks down = 8. Havlat, Toews, Wiz, Eager, Sops, Kadz, Williams and Bolland. Well that don’t mean a thing, cuz they still got some sting. With Khabibulin or Lalime in net and that kid no one ever heard of til he got his hattie on us, on the backice.

Oh yes children, the most dangerous animals in the wild are the wounded ones. And that Buffy kid bears some serious watchin… well we should watch that weak side back door anyway, who knows what might try to come in there if we aren’t vigilant. (Svatos really liked it when we left it open)

Look for Pat Kane and Patrick Sharp to try to step up and lead this team in their fearless leaders absences. No Havlat and no Toews means that there is a void and voids by their very nature need to be filled (nature abhors a vacuum dontchaknow).

In order to walk away with this one, we got to start hard and fast (whats new?) drawing first blood will sap any confidence these kids come in with. Continually pressuring through the neutral will frustrate them and hopefully our very much present PP can add to the barrage on their spirits. We have to break them… and break them early. These wounded warriors will take every gain as a sign from the hockey gods that they are still favored and give them life.

If Koci dresses we have issues. Please baby Yotes… do not engage with this insane madman. No amount of face saving or machismo is worth getting your pretty faces broken. And if this does ocurr, every Yotes on the ice BETTER step in and put that mad dog down. The only Yote that could possibly take on this ‘Thing That Skates in the Night’ would be Jovo. (no offense Boynk, DMo & Doan but this guy is way beyond your class weight/heights… and Weller, well you just got out of the danger zone so don’t you even THINK about it… if you are back in the game tonight.)

Anyway… I hope to tell you all another classic tale of glory and heroic battling tomorrow and if the indications are all true I will be able to. Oh and maybe some up close pics of Breezy’s helmet. Coyote on top, Coyote howling in front of moon on sides and scripted on the back are the names of his kids.
