Watched the practice at Toyota Center today about 2 hours ago. Make no mistake - scratches came on at 12:40; team @ 1:00pm. Hard practice, lots of passing drills, lots of boardwork drills. An interesting passing/one timer drill with the forwards lined up like a game of horse in front of the net. Dave Barr worked a lot on blueline defensive boardwork with Larsson and Carter. They were smiling and having fun. An interesting heated exchange between Cam and Boulton at the end when the scratches remained - but it seemed to simmer down. Kovy is noticeably labored in skating and shot speed. Lou watched a good portion of it from about 2 feet away from me while eating a chocolate bar. I asked him how he was holding up and he replied simply "OK". Larry was in a good mood and signed a lot of autographs later at the bus. TSN was shooting there and Dreger, Bmac, and Co. were all present. Most folks stopped for autographs at the bus except MB30, Elias, ZP, Yayo (got right on the bus) and Zubrus. I kept my distance to give the guys some respect and a wide berth given the situation. Surprisingly, not a tense practice.

Dude...you're going to say that Tallinder is average at best and then mention Harrold in the same sentence as Nieds!?!?!?

This country was founded on the premise that Kings suck! Win this one for the founding fathers and democracy. LETS GO DEVILS!

Just got my first tattoo today. What do you guys think? Even in our darkest hour, I still love the New Jersey Devils.

We only scored 3 goals in the first 3 games against the Rangers, hopefully our offense has just hit a rut and will explode over the next 4 games.

Kings were better than the Devils tonight. Kings were better than the Devils in period 1 and 2 of game 1. Devils controlled game 2's regulation by a significant margin. I'd say the series "should" be 2-1 Kings. If the Devils were lucky in game 1, 2-1 Devils.
