Yup. Howard left the game today with a LBI.

groin? knee? grundle?

i did. just can't stand that a-hole. as solid as a team game as the rangers play, i'm amazed by the amount of garbage they score night in and night out. 3 of their 4 goals today were gifts.

One short side softie by Tea Party Timmy, and a goal scored behind the goal line. Just unreal.

Filet of flopping fish was on the menu at MSG today.

the gaborik goal was a total gift from seidenberg. he passed it right to him off the back boards after 2 great stops from thomas.

i thought the winner was terrible.

Not sure. I didn't see it happen. When I picked up the game, I heard the Wings announcers mention he left early with an undisclosed LBI.

Very soft. Scuttlebutt is Rask is done for the year. So with no credible backup Thomas is going to have to play almost every game. He will be worn down for the playoffs. Horton, and Peverley aren't returning anytime soon if at all. I think the Rags obviously and Pens are more likely to reach the SCF than Boston.

watching the highlights now. i don't see anything that indicates a problem. he left after the first.

hmm... Maybe a slight groin pull. Not sure. I guess it's possible he could play Tuesday.

i think boston will have a very tough time repeating, let alone getting out of the east with their situation.

No question. I would root for Pittsburgh hard if they play the Rags.

For whatever reason, I have never built up a Devils, Rags, Bruins level of hatred for the Penguins. Not sure why.

Funny thing is Bryz and Thomas flip flopped places tonight, very weird

1-0 or 4-3. A win is a win.

interesting

Absolutely. I bet over their last 10 games, Bryzgalov's save % and GAA, are pretty close to what Thomas' are.

Anson Carter is brutal on NHL tonight, worse behind the desk than he was on the ice

Since the end of January, Bryzgalov has a 2.03 GAA and a .924 Sv %.

I liked him on "Rooming With Roenick".

You bet against Thomas in last years playoffs. I personally wouldn't bet against him. Boston has 18 games left. That would put Thomas just a handful of games over what he played last year. Not really a big deal.

Eskin is saying kimmo is out for a few weeks. Lower back, possible disk injury

Preaching to the choir

He's battled a sore back all year, not surprising. Hopefully, he can get some rest while he's out and come back strong for the stretch and playoffs.

What did he hurt right before the all star break that almost caused him to miss a game?

Pretty sure he was having back spasms or issues with the injury

Would suck, but this team can make the playoffs without Timonen. Having him for the start of the playoffs will be necessary though. Here's to hoping.
