Game 2 of 2 (Nashville won 3-2 in a SO on 11/01/08)

The final game before Christmas is upon us. I've been lagging over the past day, prepping for an out-of-town trip leaving EARLY tomorrow from Ft. Lauderdale. Not even my airport! Point being: The Box is going to be updated a bit less frequently over the next few days; I'll bang out what I can when the opportunity presents itself. Meantime, feel free as always to make use of the FanPosts and FanShots, and have a wonderful holiday!

The logo (don't believe this one's still in use) isn't terrible...

The Cats aren't the only organization specializing in cheap publicity stunts celebrating women.

SOUTHEAST STATE OF MIND

Stand back: The Thrashers lost at home to the Leafs Monday night, by the modest score of 6-2.

This evening, Atlanta travels to Long Island in a battle for ineptness, while Washington visits Madison Square Garden and the Rangahs, attempting to right the ship after the weekend's 7-1 debacle. The Lightning (remember them?) make a stop in Pittsburgh, and Carolina visits the current state of Marian Gaborik.

In essence, attention Ranger and Wild fans: you have allies in South Florida, if only for the evening. The Panthers are the only host club of the night.
