Late Night Recap: Marty "BEAST of the night" Biron

This one goes out to all the insomniacs out there

  • Chris Campoli churned out 4 assists, Bill Guerin made it rain hats and Bryan Berard had a goal and an assist playing like he had two fully functional eyes. The Islanders defeat the Capitals 5 - 4
  • The Boston Bruins were able to hold the Lecavalier, St. Louis, Prospal line to zero points. Marco Sturm chipped in with two goals and Patrice Bergeron had two assists. Bruins 4 Lightning 1
  • Atlanta responds to Bob Hartley's firing by pumping out 5 goals vs the Rangers. Marian Hossa had two points for the Thrashers. Kari Lehtonen left mid game with a groin. Thrashers 5, Rangers 3
  • In tonights episode of The Office, Jim and Pam stay a night at Dwights beet farm. Dwight tries to get over Angela, and Michael is out of money. It might just be me but the new season of The Office hasn't impressed me much.
  • Back to hockey: Marty "BEAST of the night" Biron records his 2nd straight shutout, stopping 38 shots from the Devils. 38 shots from the Devils, that must be a franchise record. Flyers 4 Devils 0
  • In All-Star Randy Robitaille's Sens debut, Nick Foglino scored his first NHL goal. The Sens over the Canadiens 4-3. The media took overhyping to a new level when the Senators signed Randy Robitaille signing. It really wasn't news at all.
  • Nik Antropov scored with 27 seconds left and Bryan McCabe responded to unnecessary criticism by scoring a goal. The Leafs knock off the Panthers 3-2. If Bryan McCabe wasn't obviously overpaid, would people boo him? The guy never deserved the money in the first place, Leafs fans should be booing JFJ not McCabe. Was he supposed to decline that fat contract because he didn't think he deserved it? Give Bryan McCabe a break.
  • Daymond Langkow scores his 500th NHL point as Calgary gets the lead and is able to keep it this time in a 4 - 3 win over Los Angeles.
  • Oilers 4 Phoenix 2. These teams are both awful. Oh yeah, Raffi Torres scored 2 goals.
  • Chris Osgood gets his 3rd win of the year for Detroit and Henrik Zetterberg nets two points. The Detroit Red Wings spear the San Jose Sharks 4 - 2.
