Good stuff Shiv, the Sidney Crosby vs. BJ Crombeen injury analysis got a chuckle out of me.

[The BBKL Insider]

good write up shiv


man, NSH has a 10 game advantage on me....poop

[Robin Hood]

Yea NJD has a 6 GP advantage on me. I'm hoping the guy in the bottom left corner of my banner can pull a win out though haha.

[The BBKL Insider]

with a 10 game advantage mik will take points, his team is full of offensive threats.....i gotta hope i take most or all of the periph cats to stand a chance this week.

[Shep]

Good luck Josh. You certainly gave me a good go around 2 weeks ago.

However this time, I hope I rape your face.

[armandtanzarian]

Not excited about facing Kareem again......

[The BBKL Insider]

Not excited about facing Kareem again......

Thom you mean

[Sensfanjosh]

Thanks, good luck to you too buddy.

There is no doubt in my mind that Semin will be a factor this week in whether or not I experience rape this week.......(that was a stretch)

[armandtanzarian]

Not excited about facing Kareem again......

Thom you mean

No, I meant Kareem, but yea...Thom.

[Robin Hood]

Not excited about facing Kareem again......

Bonino, Ullstrom and maybe Joensuu would need to be added to my injury list.
Erskine may be back though, that would provide some needed help.

Yawn

LOL, you're the heavy favourite for this one no matter how you slice it..

and i wish i really had that 10 games advantage..
it's not clear who will play among my guys.. so i might lose 4 games with Zett, 4 games with Erskine, some more with Wellwood/RIchardson/Nyquist/ect depending on healthy scratches...

it's been that way all year between injuries and HS (heck, a team like Calgary has *63* more games played than mine), and it looks like this playoff week may follow the same script as well.

[Lee]

Nice Shiv.
