  No interference tonight, I guess...

  Haha. What's the saying, 'Karma bites in the arse'? :-)

  Ha! I wanna see if Sens fans will complain if this goal counts.

  I always thought Jimmy Howard was good because of the great defensive system in front of him. New found respect for him this year, regular season and playoffs. This guy is an unbelievable goaltender.

  I understand what is meant when people say it Jedi, I'm just pointing the fallacy in it. I'm pretty sure teams win a 2-0 lead end up winning the game more often than teams with a 1-0 lead. So if there's such a thing as a dangerous lead, it is a 1 goal lead. Players might get comfortable with a 2-0 lead, I agree. But they still win more often with that kind of a lead, so it can't be the most dangerous. Having said that, it's fun saying it all the same.

  I'd like to see the stats that show teams with a 2-0 lead lose the game more often than they win. No betting man here, but I'd bet my house that the theory is boloney. It makes no logical sense, when you know that most teams with a lead (any lead) tend to win the game. How can a team with a two-goal lead be more likely to lose? We shouldn't even be debating this. I brought it up because Darren Pang was pretty serious in arguing the game wasn't over, especially because it is a 2-0 lead. Well, it's not over because there is one period to be played and a 2-0 lead isn't insurmontable. But that 2-0 curse is rather laughable. To me this is like saying the early Ole Ole chants cause opposing teams to come back and win at the Bell Center. Just because it happened on a couple of occasions doesn't mean there is a cause-and-effect link. It's superstition more than anything.

  Most people say 2-0 is the worst lead in hockey as a figure of speech, Pang seems to really believe that is true (hehe). I don't know any cliché that is more stupid. How can a 2-0 lead be worse than a 1-0 lead or 3-2 lead?
