Another Brilliant Goaltending Performance

Only one day after Luongo and Gigere's masterpiece on ice, the Buffalo Sabres and NY Rangers had a similar game of their own.

Goaltenders Ryan Miller and Henrik Lundqvist were spectacular but as we all know only one team can win. Miller got the best of Lundqvist and the Sabre's prevailed to take a 3-2 lead over the pesky Rangers.

I still wouldn't count the Rangers out yet! With the fight they have in them, they could easily pull off a win in game 6 and force a decisive game 7 for the right to move on. That being said, if Ryan Miller plays his next game like he did tonight, the Rangers don't have a chance!

Until next time,

Roberto was Dazzling, Canucks Still Fall

Even with the effort Roberto Luongo put forth this evening, it just wasn't enough. The Ducks were playing great but Luongo was absolutely stunning. It was one of the best goaltending performance I have ever seen and it is a shame that Vancouver lost such a heartbreaker.

The final score was 2-1 in double overtime, and if it wasn't for Roberto the game wouldn't have even been close. Luongo ended the night with 56 shots.

One more thing of note, Luongo had equipment trouble at the beginning of overtime and backup Saborin making a few very nice saves to keep Vancouver in the series. At the end, the great goaltending jobs just weren't enough. Full credit to the Ducks and their great play! They look to be going all the way, taking out Vancouver in 5.

Until next time,

Keyshawn to Land With the Giants?

Keyshawns' days with the Carolina Panthers are officially over (Likely due to the Panthers spending their second round pick on Dwayne Jarrett. Last season, the Giants tried to sign Keyshawn but he opted to take more money to go to Carolina.

Now that Keyshawn is a free agent, the Giants have again expressed some desire. Johnson's agent has already said his client has offers on the table and WILL PLAY this season. Let's see if the Giant's courtship for Keyshawn lasts another year.

Until next time,

Even With 8 Players on the DL - Jays Still Find a Way to Win!

The Blue Jay's finished their first month of the 2007 season with a winning record, despite having 8 regulars headed towards the DL.

Most of this is due to Roy Halladay who was dominant today YET AGAIN! He threw his second complete game as the Jays beat up the Rangers 6-1 Monday.

Starting pitcher Chacin is the latest victim to head towards the DL, joining Reed Johnson, closer BJ Ryan, and catcher Greg Zaun among others.

Still, given the Jay's schedule (having played the Tigers twice, Red Sox twice and Yankees) they had a pretty successful run. Can this streak continue with so many players missing time off?? The other players simply have to step up. There was no immediate replacement for Chacin mentioned as of today but Dustin McGowan (former 1st round pick) who is lightning it up in AAA ball is likely to get the call.

Why Cam Cameron and the Dolphins are Genius (shssss... it's a disguise)

Why is there such debate on if Brady Quinn is the better Quarterback over John Beck? Many Miami fans ripped Cameron and Mueller apart yesterday when they picked Ted Ginn (and later John Beck) over Brady Quinn. Since when are we experts?

Does everyone forget so quickly as to him getting Drew Brees and turning him into a pro-bowl QB?? A guy who just brought a then-horrible San Diego and New Orleans Saints teams respectively, into the playoffs?

How about trading Eli Manning to the Giants for Philip Rivers AND a 1st year pick. Yes I know this is ultimately the GM's (Smith's) decision but have no doubt when it came to QB's who they asked. Philip Rivers is a fantastic QB and 10 x the QB Eli Manning is (at least as of today)... If Cameron thought then, that Eli Manning was the better QB, this trade doesn't happen.

Cam Cameron knows QB's. If he says Beck is the best QB that was there, I have no reason not to believe him 100%!

As for Mueller, he drafted people like Joey Galloway and Donte Stallworth.... Ted Ginn is better than both of these players and that is a pretty exciting thought! Not to mention he was the mastermind in drafting Deuce (when they had Ricky Williams) and then proceeded to ship Ricky off to Miami for TWO first round draft picks.

Really... there is nothing for us to be upset or worried about!

GO FINS!

Randy Moss Traded to the New England Patriots

The biggest deal to go down on draft day was Randy Moss going to the NE Patriots for their 4th round selection in this year's draft.

I know Randy has all the tools and talent in the world... but do you feel NE was really reaching for this guy?? New England went out this offseason, signed 3 (count em THREE) Wide Receivers to pretty big pay cheques and in addition traded their 2nd round pick to the Dolphins for Wes Welker (and then signed him to an extention).

I don't understand the logic in this, even with Moss's talent. Not to mention his character leaves much to be desired. What will happen when Tom Brady spreads out the field (like he always does) and Moss doesn't get the ball enough? Is this going to be a distraction?? I just don't really understand this, especially after signing Donte Stallworth, Wes Welker and Kelley Washington. They had other places they could have looked to upgrade but got yet ANOTHER WR instead.

All the same, the Patriots has one of the better GM's in the league and I guess you can trust they know what they are doing. Given it was also only a 4th rounder - arguably a steal for a player of Moss's caliber. Still, I can't help but not like the pick. I think a team like Green Bay would have benefited much more than NE and that is for both parties (NE AND Moss).

Time will tell...
