Nightly Recaps

Minnesota 1 @ Carolina 2 (SO): In the 2nd game of a "home and home", which actually took place in Helsinki, Finland, the Hurricanes came away winners in the 1st shootout of the '10-'11 season (lone goal by rookie Jeff Skinner. The Canes swept the Series as the Adjectives (Wild) fall to 0-1-1.

San Jose 3 @ Columbus 2: Another game taking place overseas this time in Stockholm, Sweden had the Sharks cough up a two goal lead but then win the game on a Logan Couture 3rd period goal. Joe Pavelski continue his hot streak which started in the playoffs last season adding 2 assist.

Dallas 4 @ New Jersey 3 (OT): The Devils wasted a great effort by their star 1st line, Travis Zajac with 1g 1ast/Ilya Kovalchuk with 2 ast/Zack Parise with a goal, and fell to Dallas who had their game winner by Loui Eriksson. Eriksson scored when he was on an oddman rush and took the shot when it seemed Martin Brodeur expected him to pass.

Anaheim 0 @ Detroit 4: The Red Wings absolutely kicked some Duck tail in this one, but when you have 19 HOF'ers on the ice it's to be expected, but seriously Detroit didn't even play (biased comment there haha) that well hence they couldn't convert on the PP (0-7). To me this game showed just how bad Anaheim is as I had predicted in my article. Out shot 43-21 7 PP for DET only 1 for the Ducks and granted Jonas Hiller faced a lot of shots but he allowed 4 in the first 19 just not acceptable. Mike Modano finished the game with 5 SOG and scored on his 1st.

 Buffalo 2 @ Ottawa 1: Everybody saw Jordan Eberle's only competition for the Calder trophy tonight in Tyler Ennis who started exactly where he left off in his 10 GP last season and assisted on both Buffalo goals. Derek Roy who was the lone Buffalo scorer is going to really enjoy a full season on a line with Ennis not to mention a PP with Ennis and last seasons Calder winner Tyler Myers. Oh and Buffalo also has some Ryan Miller guy in goal who stopped 25/26 shots. (Ed. Note - what sweet threads Buffalo has now)

You'll notice we're missing the Atlanta - Washington game. We'll have it later tonight or tomorrow as the 'PKLC Game We Know NOTHING About'
