Jagr gets a penalty for hooking.
And a rather wild second period has come to an end. Spacek beaned Prucha in the nose with a puck, Paetsch gets a stick in the face from Betts, Tutin sends someone summersaulting backwards over the wall, and Jagr trips a guy with his stick.
...and Straka gets slashed twice in the fingers. And a Sabre shoves a Ranger cleaninto the goal. Still 3-2 though.
Third period has begun and Prucha has not returned.
And as soon as I type that, Prucha returns...
I wanna know what' up with Lundqvist. Is he injured or something? He hasn't been playing for awhile and has been replaced by Kevin Weekes temporarily. Maybe the shark bit him...haha no, I was joking.
YES! Pominville ties the game 3-3 with 11:47 left! The Sabres are known for coming back and tying late in the last period, but considering their fiasco against Boston a few days ago, 11:47 is pretty soon!
Oh yeah, by the way, while we're on commercial break, let's go back to the Caps-Thrashers game. The Caps lost 4-3 :( It was Ovechkin vs. Kovalchuk--may the best Russian win. (And it turned out to be Kovalchuk...). The Caps played the Flyers last night but once again, despite the fact that it was an away game, it was blacked out to local viewers.
Still tied at end of third period. Going to OT
Briere scores in OT, Sabres win 4-3.
Sabres win it in OT...
Darn...Buffalo is just awesome so far this year
Yeah, even without Afinogenov they still won
Jagr fell on his shoulder, sort of tripping over his own feet, and now he's in pain too, adding to the already large number of patients teams' doctors will have to be seeing...
I tuned in with 2 minutes left in OT and watched the end.
Toronto beat them 4-1 last night..
They bounced right back today with the comeback win.
Yeah, and the Rangers were a pretty tough team to beat. Do you know what happened to Lundqvist? He hasn't been playing lately...Weekes has taken over temporarily.
I haven't seen any Ranger games till today. Go to the teams website and check what they are saying--

Well the elections were a disaster and FReepers are depressed, but maybe some hockey will cheer us up. Red Wings vs. Oilers tonight, 8 PM EST. I'll be back to post then.
In other hockey news, Jagr got hit in the mouth with a stick and might lose some teeth. I guess, for a player of his skill level, it wasn't possible to go through an entire career without losing any teeth. And Danny Markov got his shoulder injured somehow. What is it with these Russian players injuring their shoulders? First Malkin, then Afinogenov, now Markov...
Yes...Red Wings just scored! 1-0.
Red Wings won last night 3-0!
Leafs and Bruins tonight
