"They came hard. They kept putting the puck behind our net — that was their game plan. They put it behind the net, then almost threw it blind in front of the net. That’s how they got their [game-tying] goal."
- Flames forward Olli Jokinen on his former club's effort Friday via the Calgary Herald
Unrelated: in case you hadn't heard, The Architect (of this contract) has been released by our friends in Montreal.

Why last night rocked:
- Ottawa over Pittsburgh, 6-4; Pens suffered 2nd straight loss
- Buffalo over Toronto, 5-4 (REG); only positive here is the Leafs failing to reach OT
Why last night jonesed:
- New Jersey over Dallas, 6-3; Devils grab 3rd victory in as many games
Why tonight is a Big Deal:
Huge day on tap, with three Southeast competitors in the mix...
- Boston at Philadelphia, 1 p.m.
- Vancouver at Toronto, 7
- New Jersey at newly-Martinless Montreal, 7
- Buffalo at Pittsburgh, 7
- Anaheim at Winnipeg, 7
- Tampa Bay at Columbus, 7
- Islanders at Minnesota, 8
- Rangers at Phoenix, 8
- Washington at Colorado, 9
Next up for the Cats:
- Hosting Carolina tomorrow; matinee game, with local TV. LBC Game Thread purrs on at 4:30.
