Komets

Put 'em here.

I was big into Canada before I watched the last 10 minutes of tonight's game against Slovakia. Now I think the US will win 4-2 with a P.C. Drouin insurance goal.

Brad MacMillan scored by firing the puck from the goal line off the back of the Dayton goaltender and in, and then Colin Chaulk scored the game-winning goal by bouncing one off the goaltender's side and in as the Komets beat Dayton 4-2.

The win moves the Komets within two points of Port Huron for second place after the IceHawks lost at home against Quad City. The Komets have still played three fewer games than Port Huron and can tie the IceHawks for first place with a win at home tonight against Flint which lost at home Friday night to Bloomington.

Finland gave up before that game ever started. Their defensive zone coverage was awful, so how in the world did they get this far? A buddy and I were watching the game and we were counting which Finland guys were doing NOTHING in the defensve zone. No. 18, you should be ashamed. (Now that, Alan, was a spanking! LOL)

Also couldn't believe how slow Finland was all over the ice. Nobody moved to the puck, they all waited for it to come to them. Did they stay up partying last night? Teemu Selanne where have your legs gone?

One person thinks so.

How about considering Dinner with a Komet?

Komets finish up 5-1 in Quad City this year, out-scoring the Mallards 20-9. They are 9-1-1 against the Mallards overall with three games to go in Fort Wayne.

The Komets have allowed only six power-play goals in their opponents' last 65 chances against. With Wednesday's performance, they have passed Port Huron for the International Hockey League lead in penalty kills at 87.0 percent compared to the IceHawks' 86.8 percent.

They didn't give up any goals in nine Quad City chances last night.

You can watch them here.

Get the pun?

Anyway Komets won 4-1, stopping all nine Quad City power-play chances, including a pair of 5-on-3s. Komets end the season 5-1 in Moline this season. Dupuis, Thomas, O'Connor and Syroczynski score for Fort Wayne, and Nick Boucher makes 35 saves.

I'm feeling a flu bug coming on for Friday so I can stay home all day and night to watch hockey. Just warning you. Anybody else have a throat that's feeling kind of scratchy a
