Its almost 1:00 am and I am still stuck on which website to use to launch this whatever its going to be, so tonight I watched the CAPS vs. FLYERS, awesome fight right off of the bat between D.J. King (CAPS) and Jody Shelley (FLYERS) it was definitely an awesome, “Here I am” for those of us who have been waiting for DJ to comeback. The CAPS lost in OT about 1:06 seconds into it Andrej Meszaros shot it right past Varlamov. Neuvirth started in goal however, was replaced by Varlamov from the 2nd period on…rough :/. I wonder how many times that actually happens in the NHL, I have never seen that in the 100 or so games I’ve watched, same for BL she was shocked!!
The Captains for the All-Star game have also been chosen, Eric Staal of the Carolina Hurricanes and Nicklas Lidstrom of the Detroit Red Wings. I was pulling for Ovi but seeing how he really hasn’t rallied together as a captain, lets see how this goes. Depending on where Green and Ovechkin go I will have to see what team I am rooting for but, I do like Eric Staal so that may be a deciding factor.
· Do players have to play in the All-Star game do they have the option to not play? (David Steckle) How are they chosen, who chooses the teams and the Captains?

I also realized there is another term you should probably know that I don’t think I have explained yet and that’s a SHUTOUT, which is when a goalie doesn’t let in a single goal during the entire game. The Boston Bruins goalie, Tim Thomas did not let in a single goal when the played the Carolina Hurricanes, making this Tim Thomas’s 24th shutout. Congrats Tim!
