Lithely, leisurely, he swam
That strange fish, part vulture, part wish
and feared by all of man

Video highlights: C.J. Yoder first goal, flying slide tackle, C.J. Yoder second goal (PP), O’Kane interference penalty, Beilstein game winning goal (PP).

Battle of California still remembers you Pro Beach Hockey. Loved the banked end zones and beachside viewing. Who wasn't a Los Angeles Salsa fan?

PS - I think that is Rudy at the 52 second mark. I might be wrong.

Top 3 Sleek rumors overheard at the NHL draft -- in a band called Sleek and the Sleestack's -- it takes Sleek 20 minutes to watch 60 minutes -- is more interesting than the most interesting man in the world, but prefers Pacifico to Dos Equis.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, tone-deaf noise bad. I took a stab at breaking down Niemi here with less musical accompaniment. Biggest key to the series is getting to the Hawks rookie netminder a la Jimmy Howard.

Here is a slow-motion video from CSNCA of Douglas Murray's third period hit on Johan Franzen. It was a clean shoulder-to-shoulder check. Franzen complained to the Detroit media that there should have been a 5-minute major penalty called on the play. It looks like he was trying too hard to draw a call.

Photos from game 5 are up here. Neil Young and Metallica's James Hetfield were at the Tank last night.
