Devils @ Panthers 2/17/09

After 4 straight wins at home, the Devils head to Florida for a 3-game road trip, on which, injured Paul Martin, Brendan Shanahan and Martin Brodeur are traveling. Will David Clarkson score two more goals? Will Baby Goalie shut out the Panthers? Will Brian Gionta run into another goalie? Will Jamie Awesomebrunner have a random offensive explosion? Please, let the hockey gods be in a good mood.

7:38 - Aannndd we're off! In a much warmer Florida atmoshphere, the action has begun.

7:40 - Jamie Langenbrunner is robbed by the Panther's goalie...awesome start, right?

7:41 - Crap, I forgot Richard Zednik plays for the Panthers! That might not be good news for the Devs.

7:44 - GRRRRR. Panthers score on a clearly unprepared Baby Goalie. Florida's crowd's is suprisingly loud.

7:59 - Roar. I'm bored.

8:01 - Three Devils in front of the Panthers net, can't hit it in. Passes to Johnny Oduya who fires one that HITS THE POST! GRRR!!

8:10 - No comment.

8:12 - Period 1 over. Grr.

8:29 - Period 2. Woo.

8:39 - The Devils are playing like it's high school hockey and I'm yelling at the TV. I hate life.

8:49 - AAAAGHH!! Panthers are evil!! 2-0!!

8:54 - eydaroija;eryoj36uq09eteoi I HATE LIFE! 3-0.

8:56 - Penalty to the Panthers. COME ON DEVILS LET'S SHOW SOME OFFENSE HERE! And Baby Goalie: LOOK ALIVE!!

9:04 - 2nd period over.



9:20 - And we're back on...



9:37 - Dear Devils, Tomas Vokoun is NOT a pinata. You may not beat him with your sticks, regardless of the score! Jeez.

9:45 - WHAT THE HELL?! Brent Sutter just pulled the goalie with 5 minutes left in the game and now Jamie is in the penalty box? FANTASTIC!! Because what more could we want besides a 4-on-4 with 4:45 left in the 3rd when we're down by 3. HOLY SUPER HAPPY FUN TIME! I'm going to hurt someone...

9:48 - WOW! PANTHERS SCORE! HATE! 4-0. This is pitiful.

9:53 - TV goes...green. We lose. I hate everything.

We couldn't have played worse. That was just...bad. I don't even know. We should've played Weeksie. Baby Goalie, while I adore him, was having one hell of an off-night. I don't even know.
