What a great 3rd period against Detroit!

Man, that was great! If only we could play like that every night and every shift.. but then we'd be really tired.. and bruised. I laughed when Alain commended the team for picking up their offense. Wasn't this the coach who said that we do better playing a 1-2 goal game rather than a 3-4 goal game?

Willie Mitchell did a radio interview yesterday and he hemmed and hawed at the question of "Don't you ever want to take the puck and just SCORE??" Poor guy, restricted by his role and the team's defensive identity.

A big hug to Markus Naslund for reaching his 1000 NHL game milestone!
And welcome back to Trevor Linden, who finally made an appearance on the lineup after 3 games.
