Good to see Ryan padding his stats in another meaningless game. He sure knows how to bring it when it matters.
I agree with this being one of the worst seasons I've watched, if not the worst. Kariya and Selanne were entertaining enough to make the late 90s enjoyable but I think this year is right up there with 2001-02 and 2003-04 as far as terrible goes.

Easily the worst, those 90's year they were expected to suck and lose most nights, after the Burke years of having an identity and being a perennial powerhouse year after year makes this team of cowards and losers tougher to watch. It was boring but it could have been avoided with a better GM
Another weird thread warp. Well, maybe no one will ever see this, but:
Quote:
“[Akim Aliu] did nothing,” Boudreau said. “One hit a skate and one hit him on the back of the [butt] and went in. His play was nothing to me. Nothing. He didn’t do anything.”
Aliu’s goals came off a pass toward Michael Cammalleri that banked in off the Ducks’ Luca Sbisa and a shot by Flames defenseman Jay Bouwmeester that hit him in the posterior and floated by Ducks goalie Jonas Hiller.
“He tried to get out of the way and tried to make a play in front of the net,” Boudreau said. ”Let’s not make a mountain out of a mole hill. He didn’t do anything.”
had to wait for today to watch the game... ugh, terrible. Wished I would have skipped it. Glad for FFwd at least.
My biggest irritation in this game is this Aliu guy, and the Ducks response to him. We had 16 minutes of penalties because of the guy, and nobody got a good shot at him at all for any of it. What a punk.
Good riddance to this season.. as the consensus seems to be, worst/most boring season in a long time. I agree. Gonna be tough watching them next year if this continues. I am moving to Washington State next week... please don't make me become a Nucks fan!
