Well you’re slim and you’re weak
You’ve got the teeth of a hydra upon you
You’re dirty sweet and you’re my girl.

Burn Motherfucker Burn: Flames NationThe past few years haven’t been kind to the Flames. For a time, it seemed the Flames were only just finding a center for Iginla away from getting to the promised land. Then calls to start tearing the team apart (and usually rebuild around Iggy.. sometimes trade him) became more frequent. Sadly, the Flames are never quite bad enough to really justify a total re-build but certainly never good enough to actually have anyone take them seriously.
This year, things may finally be different though – They’ve got just a single win in 5 games and were most recently seen getting kicked in the dick in only 3 minutes by an Avalanche team that isn’t really scaring anyone. Could this year finally be the one where the Flames pull the plug and trade their captain? Does anyone still want him? Does everyone realize Iggy’s full name is Jarome Arthur-Leigh Adekunle Tig Junior Elvis Iginla?
Oh wait, of course it isn’t because their GM, Jay Feaster, puts detergent in his oatmeal everyday.

Screaming at a wall: Blackhawks 1 – Canucks 1 (Canucks Win Pepsi Challenge)
Ahh yes, the late game wrap the next morning. What a fun time these things are. The Blackhawks kept up their impressive point streak to start off the season but for the second time in a row.. fell in the skills competition.
For all the hype we may put on these games, this one turned out to be a pretty lackluster affair. There were plenty of runs on Keith (too be expected and pretty understandable), strong play from both goalies, lots of awful power plays and then a silly little shootout

I burned the place around you
I hit you with a rake
You piss upon my candle
So proving you’re a fake -

I pushed and then you stumbled
I kicked you in the face
You stare at me so hollow
Got to keep that killin’ pace -

I drowned you in the lake
You, a snake that I would trample

SEARCHING IN VAIN FOR MEANING: Nucks Misconduct, Pass It To Bulis
Oh right. These guys. How could I forget?
I think it’s just me, but some of the heat of what had been and might still be the league’s best rivalry has gone out a bit. Might have something to do with the last three season meetings coming after somewhat passionate playoff meetings, and this one doesn’t. Maybe it’s partly to do with both teams coming off first-round exits in last year’s playoffs, and no longer is the target to get past each other but everything is just more focused inward and what each team has to do to go farther. Maybe the rise of genuine threats in St. Louis and L.A. has spread the ire for both sets of fans a little thinner.
Though reading Nucks Misconduct today, I’m guessing they don’t feel the same.
