Florida Panthers at New Jersey Devils, Dec 11, 2009 7:00 PM EST
11-14-6 (28 Points) 21-7-1 (43 Points)
In Lou We Trust * Cats at Devils GameDay Central * TSN Preview
WELCOME TO THIS EVENING'S OPEN THREAD
You just knew it would come to this: Martin Brodeur brings his 103 career shutouts into this game; one more sets the all-time record. The Florida Panthers...there for you when you need them the most.
Please take a minute to check out our good friend (and very understanding colleagues) John, Steve, and the loyal crowd at In Lou We Trust for their typical excellence in Devils coverage.
Oh yeah: Like, duh...we've been saying this for eight months.
I'm REALLY freaking happy it's Friday. Go Cats.
Big thanks, JMarushin.

Happy Friday all
So how about this crazy Vokoun talk? Waaaay too early to speak of him getting dealt. But if he is shown the door – this far ahead of the trade deadline – does that indicate a housecleaning is on the way?
TGIF
Unless your facing Marty Brodeur!
How goes it gang?
Vokoun traded? Well apparently he’s about the only bargaining chip we have that can be dealt. At this point anyway. Who needs a goalie? Philly maybe?

its probably to dump that big contract and get talent in return i mean i would do it not saying i dont like tvo i mean i have his jersey but you must sacrifice to get a nice return so long as it has value
agreed. I like him as well. he has deserved better
by The Rat Trick on Dec 11, 2009 7:09 PM EST up reply actions
Wait a minute -
Isn’t Vokoun’s contract up this year?
by DarthDaddy98 on Dec 11, 2009 7:12 PM EST up reply actions
But any team taking him will demand to dump salary in return…that’s the kicker
by Donny Rivette on Dec 11, 2009 7:12 PM EST up reply actions
Shook his hand and got his autograph before he even got on the ice for FLA…that was kewl, cuz you just Didn’t Know
by Donny Rivette on Dec 11, 2009 7:17 PM EST up reply actions
Damnit
That’s twice I was beaten to it!
by Donny Rivette on Dec 11, 2009 7:17 PM EST up reply actions
Sure that’s not Humongous from Road Warrior? We’re on the same page today!
by Donny Rivette on Dec 11, 2009 7:19 PM EST up reply actions
Yeah…didn’t know they were scheduled. Should try television advertising next time around.
by Donny Rivette on Dec 11, 2009 7:20 PM EST up reply actions
They’re not great…but soon there will be more. Oh yes. Quite soon.
by Donny Rivette on Dec 11, 2009 7:24 PM EST up reply actions
Nice…as the little girl empties the remote into her grandmother. What violence on TV?
by DarthDaddy98 on Dec 11, 2009 7:30 PM EST up reply actions
Can they shoot a puck at the net? I’ll watch if they can score…
by DarthDaddy98 on Dec 11, 2009 7:27 PM EST up reply actions
says sopcast required…don’t know what that is, it’s for internet explorer and we don’t have that on mac
by alterego6487 on Dec 11, 2009 7:34 PM EST up reply actions
woh! way too technical for me. Not sure really. My daughter has a mac and she can get it.
by The Rat Trick on Dec 11, 2009 7:35 PM EST up reply actions
u know what this team needs is to borrow florida marlins scouts and player personnel lol because they always pick the right players bring them up and they become stars
they do but they almost always compete and they almost always have just as good replacements in the farm
and that’s precisely the problem with the Panthers, how many times have we heard this is the year we finally see “the kids” true potential
by alterego6487 on Dec 11, 2009 7:36 PM EST up reply actions
I throw that charge firmly around the neck of Mike Keenan
by Donny Rivette on Dec 11, 2009 7:36 PM EST up reply actions
easy. I like mike. goes back to my days on chicago
by The Rat Trick on Dec 11, 2009 7:38 PM EST up reply actions
Won’t be in NA until next fall earliest…under contract for remainder of the season
by Donny Rivette on Dec 11, 2009 7:37 PM EST up reply actions
is he really as good as advertised? i couldn’t find much video of him to see for mysefl
by alterego6487 on Dec 11, 2009 7:37 PM EST up reply actions
i don’t know if i like just “good.” hah.
by alterego6487 on Dec 11, 2009 7:38 PM EST up reply actions
but then again, he’s yet to play in the NHL so who knows.
by alterego6487 on Dec 11, 2009 7:39 PM EST up reply actions
True true, but I’ve heard the term “Best goaltender outside of the NHL” more than once
by Donny Rivette on Dec 11, 2009 7:39 PM EST up reply actions
No matter what he will not be a Panther this season
by Donny Rivette on Dec 11, 2009 7:37 PM EST up reply actions
It’s insane tho…go with Clemmer as the starter for the rest of the year? Who backs him up…Salak? Makes no sense this early.
by Donny Rivette on Dec 11, 2009 7:39 PM EST up reply actions
i’m only for it if it brings a good return at this point.
by alterego6487 on Dec 11, 2009 7:39 PM EST up reply actions
But we’ll have to take on immense salary in return, meaning another aging expensive forward on the downside comes our way
by Donny Rivette on Dec 11, 2009 7:41 PM EST up reply actions
then in that case play it like the Heat, get a guy with a major salary but that’s going off the books at the end of the year. i also agree that goalie is not the problem, been saying this for the last two yeras when my friends rag on vokoun. his GAA has been fine, we just don’t score more than 2 a game.
by alterego6487 on Dec 11, 2009 7:43 PM EST up reply actions
as long as he doesnt think he can get away with this here its all good lol

Ahhhh…another playoffless spring for the Mighty Whale
by Donny Rivette on Dec 11, 2009 7:55 PM EST up reply actions
Referring to the Whalers not making the playoffs in 1996.
by Donny Rivette on Dec 11, 2009 8:02 PM EST up reply actions
long story short, Pens fans weren’t too nice to me in the bathroom because i was sporting a Lindsay #11 jersey. this big man took my side and later told me he was Laus’ father…and brought us to meet the team after the game. i guess thats what makes me still sit through these debacles year after year.

my crap computer skills won’t allow me to copy and paste a photo, so I must be stupid, or missing something
by The Rat Trick on Dec 11, 2009 8:20 PM EST up reply actions
I honestly think that the better teams get overconfident against us and step-down their play. The comes back to bite them if the Cats bring their A-game.
by DarthDaddy98 on Dec 11, 2009 8:11 PM EST up reply actions
It's Topsy-Turvy Night...
We’re two up on the Devils, who are in 2nd place in the east.
The Hartford Whalers Hurricanes are two up on Washington, who’s in 1st.
Make that we’re up 3-0. WooHoo…
Unfortunately that didn’t work for the Oil in Boston circa 1990
by Donny Rivette on Dec 11, 2009 8:35 PM EST up reply actions
ok, then let’s have the building collapse.
by The Rat Trick on Dec 11, 2009 8:37 PM EST up reply actions
Sadly ...
… the power has gone out at Chez OldDave (and the surrounding homes as well). I’m here only until either the UPS quits powering the WiFi router and DSL modem, or the laptop battery dies. They are racing each other to the bitter end.
Oh man…what happened? Mynocks chewing on the power cables again?
by Donny Rivette on Dec 11, 2009 8:44 PM EST up reply actions
Good thing for the Everblades that we only have a few bodies there
by Donny Rivette on Dec 11, 2009 8:46 PM EST up reply actions
BTW…I departed and arrived from the top of the building on the left in a helicopter – first production Sikorsky S-76. Pretty overwhelming for a 7 year-old.
by Donny Rivette on Dec 11, 2009 8:56 PM EST up reply actions
Since I'm listening to 790/Panthers radio ...
Memo to Randy:
Investigate noise-cancelling microphones.
cause gary roberts was traded, then he retired
by The Rat Trick on Dec 11, 2009 9:05 PM EST up reply actions
was definetely a class guy and a real leader
by The Rat Trick on Dec 11, 2009 9:07 PM EST up reply actions
OT - on my power outage:
We have identified a power problem affecting your location.
The problem is with a main line and it affects 74 customers.
We estimate your service will be back by 12/11/2009 at 10:30 PM.
Hope my batteries hold out a few more minutes…
