This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

That was a resilient effort. by wearendhockey
They had to adjust to a much grittier game and were able to do it. That is a sign of a good team. We'll win any way we need to.
Once again Morris was outstanding. The only puck that legitimately got by him was a knuckle-puck that bounced off Westlund's hand and then his stick. Dominic Hasak and Martin Brodeur could combine to clone a goalie and he wouldn't have stopped that shot. (ok my knowledge of biology may be a little soft, but you get the point...)
It's early, but this team seems to be showing all the signs of Jackson's best teams. They are poised, they play 200 feet and 60 minutes. They're deep. They kill penalties. Puck support is a way of life almost all game long. They have a great hockey instincts. It should be a great regular season.
