SJ game recap:http://sports.yahoo.com/nhl/recap

I watched the Jackets get blanked by Detroit at Guido's Lounge in Mt. Adams (Cincinnati), while the World Series started and Illinois was getting trounced by Penn State. From across the bar towards a small tv in the corner I could only see flashes of red and white striped hockey players out hustle the blue players. Only Adam Foote sticking up for himself and his team in the last two minutes remained in my brain the day after. We've got another shot at these guys tonight , so maybe we'll play one like we're professionals.

I missed the SJ game entirely. Typical.
