Add Pommer to the "Loves Miley Cyrus" List

by Anne

First Nolan Pratt, then Craig Rivet, now Pommer.

As per usual, Jason Pominville has given us basically a meaningless update on his blog that says nothing interesting or new.

I love Pommer dearly but his blog is terrible. If he stopped updating it once every three months I probably wouldn't even notice.

All I really took away from it is that he clearly loves Miley Cyrus' new tune as its title as also the title of his latest post:

The Pens lost today. TO THE ISLANDERS. In the shootout. Give Dan Bylsma a few more weeks to see if he can fix it and when he can't, the Pens will have to acknowledge that Miro Satan and Ruslan Fedotenko are not Ryan Malone and Marian Hossa and they screwed up with Roberts and Malone last off-season. Bylsma has done great things in Wilkes-Barre this season in the AHL and its easy to see why the Pens moved him up to the big time. However, I have a feeling that the Pens season may already be lost and if they make it to the playoffs it won't be higher than 8th and they probably won't even deserve to be there and will probably be crushed by the Bruins.

I'm excited to be able to watch the Kings game tonight without having to worry about class in the morning. Wooooo! Gotta love random four day weekends.

In other exciting news, my phone decided today it was going to just continually shut off without warning and I'm fed up with it so I bought a new one:

i love green
you should see my room

Tomorrow I plan to read and chillax at my sister's house with her cat while she's in Vermont. Speaking of which at a bar in Vermont there was apparently a huge picture of JP Dumont with no explanation as to why he was being honored there.

The Rest of the Pack

by Anne

I need to pick a Dallas Stars WCB because they clearly need my support.

No player needs my love more than one Mr. Marty Turco.

Poor, dear, sweet Marty is not doing well these days. His GAA is a TERRIFYING 4.20 and his SV% is a backup backup poor .841%. Ehhhhhhhh. Maybe the stress of baby #3 is getting to him?????

Regardless, Marty needs love, and I'm here to provide some.... from about 1300 miles away.

Marty! It's easier if you wear the pads!!
And stand in front of the net!
Try it out! That might help!!

Nashville:

I wanted to avoid the easy route of loving JP Dumont, but why fight my first French Canadian love?

JP, I'm an AWFUL skater,
can you help me??

And he has adorable little French Canadian daughters.

SABRES @ WILD TONIGHT!!!
Without Rivet
and Goose
and Hecht
and Timmy
COME ON PATCHES, YOU CAN DO IT!!!

Another Highly Anticipated Player Return

by Anne

I think with all of this hulabaloo over Brian Campbell, we all have failed to recognize the magnitude of tonight's game.

Standings? Bah. Points? Phooey. J.P. Dumont returns to HSBC arena for the first time since leaving to play for Nashville in 2006? Exactly.

You were also a part of that 2005-2006 team that I loved so dearly and for many years previous. I also felt the Sabres mishandled your contract as they did JKee's. You scored that overtime goal to win one of the playoff games against Ottawa, I don't honestly remember which game it was, but you rocked it out.

Welcome back to the best #17! (No offense Gragnani, but you've done absolutely nothing to be memorable except give that sheepishly adorable pre-game interview the other day.) Wait, Mike Foligno wore #17 for 10 years...ok it'll be a toss up for favorite #17 between Doom and Foligno. Upon investigaion of previous wearers of #17, Cunneyworth wore #17 when he randomly came back to the Sabres for like 17 games in 1999. Oh, who cares about Randy Cunneyworth? He's the head coach of the Amerks? Oh. Well, we're not gonna be associated with them anymore after this season so I'm back to not caring about him.
