Why last night rocked (and man...did it rock):
- Detroit over Tampa Bay, 4-2
- Colorado over New Jersey, 6-1
- Anaheim over Montreal, 4-1
Why last night jonesed:
- Not technically a jones, but no clear winner for FLA in the standings as Boston doubled up Toronto 6-3. Then again, what do we care if the Northeast contenders continue beating the tar out of each other?
Why tonight is a Big Deal:
- Pittsburgh at Washington, 7 p.m.
- Rags at Carolina, 7
- Phoenix at Winnipeg, 8:30
- Ottawa at Dallas, 8:30
- Montreal at San Jose, 10:30
Next up for the Cats:
Tonight at Los Angeles (WQAM, FS-FLA); Game Thread opens 10(!) p.m.
