CBJ @ CHI: 1-0 SHUTOUT WIN

Why isn't Pascal Leclaire in the All-Star Game again?

Eighth shutout, baby.

Boll with his fifth goal, in front of his hometown crowd. Way to go, Bollsy.

And while I'm at it, because I suck, a big giant YAY to Kris Russell for his two goals the other night, numbers one and two. Here's hoping for many many more.

In conclusion, the Jackets rock, and here's to All-Star Weekend! :D

So basically all you need to know...

About my first foray into Atlanta hockey is:

-Hemmer saw my sign and shook his head at me.
-Souray saw it as well and yelled 'HEY YEAH HEMMERTIME!' and I cracked up.
-Philips Arena was out to kill me because I'm an Oilers fan, not a Thrashers fan.
-I was in literally the TOP row of the arena, and my section hated me for loving that the Oilers won.
-Pictures are here.
-Final point? I'm good luck for the Oilers, apparently.

Final Score?
4-2 Oilers WIIIN.

So basically.

The Jackets rock, Nikolai Zherdev is still sexy, and life still hates me when it comes to hockey.

That said, I'm going to my first Thrashers game on Sunday, against the Oilers (I'm sensing a trend. I always go see the Oilers.) and I have made retarded signs for Hemmer for during warmups (because my brother is cheap and did not inform me that I was getting NOSEBLEED 400 seats for Christmas). One reads "STOP! HEMMERTIME!!" with the footnote of "My sister sign is in Kalamazoo, MI!" And the other is imploring him to grow his damn curls back.

And don't even TALK to me about the damn All-Star Game.

Also? It snowed in Atlanta. Like, snow accumulated (true it was gone by the morning, but it was there, I swear.). This is comparable to hell freezing over. I shit you not. People were going 35 miles per hour on the highway. I love the south sometimes.
