Atop the Northwest


With all of this blog construction I've been doing lately, I figure why not do a quick early game avs post. Going into tonight's game in 1st place in the Northwest Division, and a win tonight will mean we remain at that spot. Sounds like the avs will be shorthanded yet again tonight, with the exception of Salei (pretty ruthless blackeye he's curretnly rocking). Budaj will be in net, bringing his 4-0 record versus oilers into this evening's game. I guess Jose doesn't play well against Edmonton.


It's been about a week since I've seen an Avs game, so I'm ready to watch this red-hot hockey team. With the crude winning seven of their last eight (and being just as red-hot), it should be quite the battle tonight... Come on Super-Avs!

Finger's goal was sweet - almost added a second tally the very next trip.

And thank you ATL Thrashers!!

do i even need to say it?

my main man, Wolski.

TroutDog said...

Feeling pretty safe now with the 5-1 lead. Lappy with a very nice pass to Wolski. He looked better on that non-shootout breakaway than he does with no defenders in persuit.

And we remain in 1st place....however, the way the NW is stacking up, it's a virtual tie. Going to be very fun watching all of these head-to-head games down the stretch. The playoff atmosphere will start a couple of weeks early.

wow. if the Wild hadn't been able to squeeze a point of their game, that would have been as picture perfect a night of hockey as one could have.

We need some cushion in the standings since I will be going to the game on Sat. Let's just say points haven't come easily with me sitting in the 350 this year.
