Around SBN: Steve McNair Found Shot to Death


Preview: Habs at Leafs

1355978652_0181b3e59a_o_medium

Fresh off a brutal loss last night in Buffalo, the Habs are going to be looking for blood. Hopefully they're just a bad team, and not a good team that played a single bad game and is ready to avenge their shootout loss by beating the cornbread muffins out of the Leafs.

Star-divide

The Leafs seem lighthearted and that's probably a good thing.

First, at a team dinner, someone crept under the table and poured sour cream on Wilson's shoe. Then, another guy in on the joke, called out "shoe check."

Grabovski's apparently become a fan of the Whopper while in Toronto:

"Just a regular game," said Grabovski. "Second one of the season."

Sitting a few stalls away, Nik Antropov – who has become Grabovski's friend – wasn't buying that.

"I know around the league, when guys come from teams they say how special it is when they play against that team," said Antropov. "They want to show what they can do and prove they were wrong. It's going to be a special game for him."

Let's hope that Grabs plays his head off tonight. The Tlusty, Grabovski, Hagman line was absolutely devastating against Detroit, and I think we'll see them together again tonight.

We're going to find out in a hurry if this team is actually a scrappy young group that's going to pull out wins against all odds, or if Thursday night was an oasis in a desert of terrible hockey. Either way:

Hollweg

is going to do something dirty tonight and intimidate them. Just like he did in BUffalo to Peters. I love it. We are going to alley cat a win tonight.

unfortunately

Hollweg is suspended for tonights game, if only he’d learn that you can’t check from behind he’d be able to intimidate the shit out of them by offering his chin to the first guy to drop the gloves

Can someone help me...

Why is it every time I think of Pavel Kubina, I think of either 1) vodka and waffles or 2)the show “House, MD”? I don’t get it.

Funny thing is

Kyle Wellwood thought about waffles every time he looked at Kubina too. Poor guy didn’t stand a chance.

Hope Grabovski shuts up the Habs fans but good

he and Tlusty were fun to watch against Detroit. They looked rambunctious out there and won a lot of battles. Go Leafs
