My favorite character is George, Sr.

YES!

I have no clue how this one will shake out, but if we can beat Luongo here then it will be just about the best situation imaginable. Not only has he been shown that his team and coaches have lost faith in him, but the reason that he came on in relief was due to injury, not anything that Schneider did wrong. Thus, if…

You can't write drama this good.

To not score on that 5 on 3 is disheartening.

Agreed. It caught the Seattle scene right when it was breaking and then just sprinkled in some Westerberg/Pumpkins for good measure.

I really like "Seasons" from the Singles soundtrack, too. For me, that song is pretty close to the apex of what he's done solo. Didn't hurt that he was actually in good bands at the time, so he was probably in a pretty positive place musically.

This beat puts me in a very pleasant trance.

Yeah, I was the same way when it attacked my ears. The thing is, I feel like he knows this stuff sucks. I saw him live in 2007 and you would have thought he never released anything post-Soundgarden. At least 80% of the setlist (I just rechecked it) was Soundgarden or Temple of the Dog.

Jesus. Talk about the puck falling right to someone. These goals have all been sloppy, poor clearances, etc.

That goal is a pretty good example of something that might not have happened against Luongo. Goalie either got too cute or just wasn't in sync with his back line so his man got clobbered and the puck fell right out front. Then again, I doubt Luongo would've stoned Kane on that breakaway so it's probably even.

"It felt so good when I got it in a thick one."

I don't know. I feel like it's kind of win-win for us. He could just as easily get back on form and send us home tonight, so I'm not going to get too upset going against what amounts to the backup goalie.

Fantastic game. Fingers crossed that Luongo continues his annual meltdown.

Had Hennepin earlier. Now drinking something called Name Tag Lager from Trader Joe's. It is by no exaggeration the worst beer I've ever had.

As opposed to former pitcher Kaz Tadano, who exacted some revenge by literally fucking the white man.

They could just as easily be trying to avoid being swept today as opposed to going for the sweep. I don't think I've ever seen a team play this consistently bad and be up 3-0.

Perhaps now he'll understand the importance of sharp cuts.
