You know how I know they played well? Because not only did they win the game 5-1, they managed to take 28 shots at the Canucks goal, they only had six penalty minutes and Swayman had 19 saves over 20 shots. That's a save percentage of 95%.
That's a well-played game.
They're off now until Tuesday when they will be in Calgary to play the Flames. That game starts at 9:00 so I'll be able to watch at least the first period, maybe the second as well.
As for the Patriots, their game against the Cardinals started at 4:25 and the score is currently 0-0.
I figure I'll watch as much of the game as I can but if they start to stink the place up, I'll flip on the Steelers/Eagles game and watch that.
It's always better to watch a game where a team you are rooting for stands a chance of winning...
In baseball news, the Red Sox traded DFA'd Enmanuel Valdez the other day today they traded him to the Pirates for a minor league pitcher named Joe Vogatsky.
Not sure if this is good or bad. Valdez wasn't getting enough playing time to improve so him going to the Pirates might get him more playing time.
As for Vogatsky, I said he was a minor league pitcher but that might not be true. He got drafted last season by the Pirates and he never played a game in the minors. He's only ever played college baseball and summer league ball.
I guess we'll know more once he gets into the system and we see what he can do.
