Hopefully you got a chance to watch the game last night, so that in 25 years, when Nathan Gerbe is getting inducted into the hockey Hall of Fame, you can tell your kids "I saw his first NHL goal!" Congrats to the kid, and I for one hope he doesn't get sent back down anytime soon. The rest of the game wasn't too shabby either, with Ryan Miller and the defensive corps shutting down Alex Ovechkin and the NHL's #1 offense.

Video: Revenge of the Randy Moller Panthers' goal calls | Puck Daddy
If you don't know Panthers radio play-by-play man Randy Moller, just know that he sometimes inserts a completely random pop culture line at the end of his goal calls, and the result is hilarious. There are a few of these videos floating around YouTube, but here's the most recent one from Puck Daddy. Bonus points for posting your favorite Moller call in the comments!

Hockey Gifts: Sabres Ornamanets
If your tree is looking a bit empty, perhaps some Sabres ornaments could spruce it up! You can find others online with a bit of searching, as these are more on the pricey side, but every hockey tree needs a Sabres ornament.

I’m going to try to do it for last night’s game. I have been more sick than I ever remember for the last 10 or so days and I have been slacking. I have like three posts that I have started and didn’t finish.

Agreed. It seems to me that the players getting called up (or placed on the active roster after being a healthy scratch) are really playing like they have something to prove (see: Gerbe, Ennis). Maybe they just fear the Portland winter…silly kids, haven’t you been to Buffalo in February?
