Sharks Ain’t Got No Teeth & Thrashers Ain’t Got No Game

I just love how in hockey two wins constitutes a “streak” and three losses are synonymous with a “skid”.

However, two shut-outs in a row including a win over the hated Sharks… I’ll take it and yell  “BOOYAH!  IN YER FACE!”  to all the canard haters out there.

Oh, and according to NHL.com, Hiller is one of the three stars of the week. 

After all my bronchitis and computer problems, that just makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

And OMG, I almost forgot, the DEVILS SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUK!

First, the Ducks turned the Thrashers inside out in a six to naught game (only trumped by the Toronto Maple Leafs 9-3 game on the same night) then we blanked San Jose 1-0 thanks – once again – to Jojo’s heroics.

Are we back on track?  One can only hope.  We’ve been down this road before and have regressed horribly, so who can say?

All I can say is watch the fun, enjoy it while you can, and have a nice, warming bowl of Shark fin soup.
