Happy Birthday Paul Gaustad!

Sorry your gift included a loss to a team that I was pretty sure we wouldn't beat anyway. Sorry, but it's true. I can't help having that impending doom feeling coming into games against certain teams.

Andrej Sekera restored some hope in us when the game was just lalalala rolling along, and being overall boring. He played a really good game, and stepped up tonight to make people notice him.

Tim Connolly is still doing as well as he's been, starting a point streak all over again. His goal put us back in it to win it, but I guess it just wasn't meant to be after all.

Ryan Miller....oh man. I dunno, I just...hmmm. Not your best work. I know it is never just a goaltender's fault when a team loses, but, come on. Tyler Myers went out to battle for him though, which was really odd to see, but endearing also. He knew what he had to do to get the message across to Ottawa that you don't mess with our goalie, you just don't. Good job redwood.

Robi was out, so Rob Ray was in. It was weird, but I was agreeing with a lot of what he had to say tonight. It was just weird seeing him in that position behind the desk, but he did a good job and could do it full time just fine when Robi decides to retire or somethin. I saw Robi in enough commercials for the night to not miss him too much...haha.

Andrej Sekera getting interviewed after the game was kinda weird, he just didn't make eye contact. Maybe he is shy. Maybe he isn't used to getting interviewed all that often. All I know is that his accent is really cute. :)

And as to honor the occasion and the fact that NO ONE SEEMED TO CARE IT WAS PAUL GAUSTAD'S BIRTHDAY, I would like to give a list of gifts he may or may not have received today:

-really tall pants
-a furnace filter
-gummi worms (horror!)
-a gold medal for his good deeds
-his "A" back
-a bff bracelet from Ryan Miller
-a really long shirt

So, no points for us...arghhh. We host Carolina on Friday, and who really knows at this point what will happen. Things can only get better though right....RIGHT??! haha. Game on!!!
