Hi all!

Hoping for a real grudge-match type of victory here at the BAC.

as an Isles’ fan, what’s your take on the “fishstick” thing? I’ve been asked over and over about “pucky the whale”.

The Litter Box: Your SBNation Florida Panthers Blogging Colossus

In a word, inexcusable.

If they’d been an expansion team starting from scratch, then it’s a nice concept. But not after what we’d been through, all that tradition. It was just one of many short-sighted moves by a series of here-for-a-buck owners.

Confession: I liked the wavy theme, wild numbers, and attempt at lighthouse iconography. But I knew that couldn’t last either.

No, that was new to me. I’ve listened to that show here and there when I can — they’ve been doing it a surprisingly long time, and very regularly. Had the Isles beat writer on, Kuklas, an Isles radio announcer.

Some how I don’t think the Isles are going to be able to pull off what the Pens did and come back and tie it with 22 sec left in the third. Just a hunch.

I was right.

Great teams find a way to overcome. Ta da… someone goes to the locker room a loser.

That was tense. Yay! Back to 3 over the Pens!!!!

Happy Birthday and a WIN

And that’s the way you should spend a birthday.

Sorry, I disappeared there. Not a great win by the Panthers but a win none the less. It’s nice to see Booth back in the lineup.

Awesome!

I’m out, peeps. All the best to ya.
