Always looking for an excuse to post a picture of Kovy...

So I guess there is a game tonight or something. Hope I wake up from my nap in time to watch it!

Leighton=stunned

No worries Leights, Cam is still out for a while. Like they're gonna start Peters? Pshht.

Poor Leighton, he had it all wrapped up. Then John Stevens called the Flyers pansies during the second intermission and they decided to make things interesting.

I actually liked the second period, because all the bullshit calls got the crowed riled up. It made the third period that much sweeter. The organist even played the chicken song riff so we could chant "hey ref you suck!" He did it at least twice, and possibly three times. He hasn't done that since last year's favorite game. This game reminded me a lot of that game.

I loved watching player interviews today, and seeing how they were still revved up from last night's game. Lupes said he had trouble falling asleep!

Next up, the Pens at home. Hope it's a good one!

How can you not stalk this guy?

I'm really not stalking him. It's just a joke! Honest. Here is Leighton with his dad during the Hurricanes' Dads weekend. Awwwwww. How cute!

I don't really want to say much about the Flyers right now....

The Pronger strikes again!!

This time it was Baby Pronger! His presence on a hockey card sent the Flyers into OT and an eventual loss!!! That's right, Soph and Jess brought me more gifts at the last Flyers game, including a Pronger card in which he isn't even a douchebag yet, and a Sexy Kovy card which I may or may not have kissed. (But I didn't lick it!!!)

As sad as the game was, and as happy as the gifts were, nothing compared to this:

(It's Michael Leighton, for those of you who aren't stalking him...)

And for those of you who are into Eric Staal, there is this:

my only picture from the Flyers Meet and Greet..

That's weird. Flyers don't suck?

This is like the only picture I've taken this season. Lugging camera gear to a game SUCKS!

I was surprised earlier today when I checked the standings...they've gone 6-3-1 in their last 10. So why do I feel like I want to jump off a bridge after every game?

1. They pretty much play like crap. They haven't played 3 full periods of hockey in any of the games I have seen (keeping in mind that I don't watch Devils games...).

2. Perhaps my expectations were too high coming off last year's post season?

3. I just can't handle the ups and downs of following a professional sports team.

I dunno, but even when they have a decent lead, it feels like they are behind...

Also, regarding Kovy's hit on Gagne: Um, yeah, not cool Kovalev, not cool. I know you want to hurdle over The Pronger to be number one on my list, but that's really not the way to do it. I do still love you though. Just work on the hair. And score some PP goals. You're killing my fantasy teams. (except for one, and we all know which one that is...)

A few in game musings...

I kind of love Carter's goal scoring celebration. Understated but still excited. Also, hot?
