Another road game, another road win. We may have the worst home record in hockey along with the Devils but we do have one of the best road records so far. All three of our wins have come on the road and last night was against the New Jersey Devils who usually trap us right out of the building whether its there or here.

Last night was a good sign for a few players including Thomas Vanek who may have taken himself off my shit list with two goals including one on the power play and Tyler Ennis had a big game with two points including a goal.

Also, enough nagging about Tyler Myers I think many of us forget after the incredible rookie season he had as a 19 year old that hes only 20, hes still prone to some mistakes, but the thing I notice about his mistakes that people don't give him credit for is that generally, he makes up for them and at times even able to cover them up because hes so dame big and tall when he makes a mistake his reach can help to hide it.

So, a solid effort on the road, now we need that ever elusive first home win.

Stars: Thomas Vanek, Tyler Ennis, Rob Niedermayer, Mike Grier, Derek Roy

Useless: Tim Connolly,  I hate to keep piling on but as one of your top two centers don't you think he would have had one shot on goal or shown something in the stat sheet? Nothing, not even a + rating....And he played over 16 minutes so playing time was not an excuse.
