boynton Stories - Litter Box Cats
The Beach speaks (am I the first to make the connection? Am I?)
A computer-generated image displaying Nick Boynton in his new togs.A rather vanilla but nonetheless an "IT'S SOMETHING FROM NOTHING" few words out of newly-acquired defenseman Nick (henceforth, The Beach) Boynton, regaling us via the Arizona Republic's Jim Gintonio with such rich bromides...
On the Glass - Saturday: Belak, Booth, The Beach & Ballard
Looks like Wade Belak, he of no points in 17 games, brings far more to the table than sheer offensive numbers, his bench boss says. "We want to make sure teams know when they're playing the Florida Panthers that it's not going to be an easy two points," said Panthers coach Peter DeBoer."The...
Quickies: End of One - Cats up 1-0
Goal by Boynton, even strength, eeeeearly, off long rebound from crossbar. His second of the year (had 3 all last season!).Notes: Panthers look much more poised than Thurday. Shots appear a bit more focused. DePietro shaky - lots of rebounds - in first start since March. Power play absolutely sucks...
End of Two: Blues up 3-0

Something's got his goat, something bothersome enough to warrant his taking a penalty - while on the bench - for jawing at the officials. Later, he sought to go to war with Cam Janssen, trying in vain to egg the former...
Jokinen on Florida: ..."And I hear they finally have a good coach."
Boooooyah! Care to volley it, JM?No surprise to those of us Illustrious Twelve who follow the Panthers closely, but it does bear repeating: Phoenix hosts Florida tonight (9pm, FSN-HD) and a few eyes around the hockey universe will be cocked in the direction of the Jobing.com Arena (the what?).Lots...
D-Man Welch moved to forward...
...for Sunday's practice, as reported by the Miami Herald. Given the shockingly low number of healthy up-fronters, someone had to fill the holes(s). I'm presuming defenseman Nick Boynton - who was replaced by Welch in a game last week - remained on the blueline. Too bad for me: I saw the name...
Belak Clears. What Now?
PantherNation applauds the retention of fan-favorite Belak.Popular Panther Wade Belak cleared waivers today, though it remains to be seen what direction his relationship with Coach DeBoer might take. Again, they're professionals, so I don't anticipate a further escalation of hostilities in this...
