Komets

So I'm not going to be able to post direct links to all of our stuff for a while.

I'd ask you to please consider picking up a copy or 10 of the paper today because I promise you it will be worth it. We worked our tails off last night, had an awful lot of fun and I'm very proud of what we were able to produce. Make sure you check out Reggie Hayes' column which is about, well, you. Nobody does it better.

From Chad Ryan who could probably use a day off.

If you haven't heard, Komets won 4-1... How about those posters?... Guy Dupuis suffered a broken right hand when he was slashed on his last shift... Hope everybody remembers to cancel their hotel reservations in Muskegon... The Lumberjacks have lost seven games in a row and nine of the last 10 Jim Hawthorne has been the referee... There probably won't be a full-fledged parade, but there will likely be something before Tuesday's fan party... Give Danko Mironovic all the credit in the world for taking on Robin Bouchard in front... Was there any doubt on the MVP?...

The Komets have taken a 2-1 lead on a goal by Mark Versteeg-Lytwyn off a Colin Chaulk pass at 13:57 of the second period. Rick Varone for the Komets and Dan Boeser for the Lumberjacks scored in the first period.

Lots and lots and lots of penalties called by Burgee's favorite referee. 10,480 fans in attendance, and what I can't get over are the empty seats from what I'm guessing must be corporate season-ticket holders. Plain and simple, those bosses should be fired! Hung in effigy! Forced to wear Icy's Nutcracker tights!

Can anyone out there do me the impossibly large favor of taping Bob's broadcast tonight? I cannot pay you for it, but I would be eternally gratefull and would be willing to trade some autographed copies of the books for a copy of the championship game.

The Komets have placed P.C. Drouin on injured reserve and will have Olivier Legault skating in warmups.

Jim Hawthorne is the referee tonight.

I'm wondering how loud the "Let's Go Komets" chant will be during warmups?

On former Komet Kevin Kaminski can be read here.

You can read the story here. It just amazes me the matter-of-fact confidence this team has. It's not cocky by any stretch, but of a feeling they know they'll do what it takes to get the job done. They'll be going to the net HARD early on tonight.

Have  you guys seen this picture? It's of Shaf after he scored the game-tying goal in the final minute. I just love this picture that Chad took.
