Last night was a great example of the old saying in boxing that that says, “Don’t let it go to the judges, knock’em out!” Last nights game went to the refs. Did they win the game for the sharks? maybe….did they steal the game from the Ducks? Possibly, regardless…the game should have been won in the 3rd period decisively….but a series of unfortunate events unfolded that were in the form of stupid penalties. the biggest one being the delay of game on Chris Pronger. It was a dumb penalty but in the heat of the moment, could not be avoided. those are the breaks. Is the season over for the Ducks….not yet, but the next 4 days are going to be very annoying. The Ducks will sit idle while everyone else passes them in the standing….or not. Something tells me the pressure will be too great for Nashville and St. Louis and they wont have favorable outcomes…but that’s just a hunch on my part.

Moving on to other news, I want to say great job to George Parros. He’s actually being considered for the Masterson Award for the improvement he’s made as a hockey player and as a humanitarian off the ice. Great job George, I’ve enjoyed your much improved play this season!

And finally…a word about FSN and Lindsey Soto. She has got to be the most annoying commentator on the FSN crew ever! Is she drunk? She sounds like she can barely finish a sentence without slurring her speech, and worse…she interrupts people after she’s asked them a question!! I was watching last nights telecast and Bryan Hayward could not get a word in edge wise without Soto cutting in on him. Hayward’s the Sports Illustrated color commentator of the year! You would think Soto would let him talk don’t you think???? Instead i think she is so hammered (allegedly) she’s keeping her little pee brain entertained by hearing the sound of her voice. I could see that Hayward wanted to strangle her with his microphone cord, but being the true pro that he is…he didn’t. She’s lucky Hayward’s built up a tolerance working with weirdos like Johnny “I love Pink” Ahlers! (Just kidding Ahlers!)

OK…I’m done with my rant….now lets sit back and watch what happens. As far as I am concerned, I will be rooting for Chicago, Dallas, Phoenix, Detroit and Minnesota all this week!

Go Ducks!!!
