Friday's Quick Facts:
Tonight wraps up a back-to-back meeting between Lake Erie and San Antonio. The Rampage squeaked out a 4-3 win in overtime last night. Wyatt Smith, David Jones and Philippe Dupuis all scored for Lake Erie. Mike Wall started in goal, after Tyler Weiman got called up to Colorado earlier in the day, and posted 36 saves on 40 shots.

Rookie right wing David Jones is riding a nine-game point streak. He has recorded 12 points (5G, 7A) during that time.

After just joining the Monsters on January 22nd, Philippe Dupuis has scored in the last three straight games, as well as added two assists during that span.

what a terrible game. awful all the way through. the monsters could not mount an effective offense, even when they had power plays. defense fell apart and there was just TOO MUCH GOONING! Love was off his game after going face first into the ice in the first. Sacco needs to get him playing hockey, he's fighting too much.

the refs totally sucked hard. someone took a butt end of the stick into the mouth and there was no call. it wasn't accidental, either.

"i'm blind, i'm deaf, i wanna be a ref"

frustrating game all around, and to make it worse i was sandwiched between the most obnoxious jerks! hey jerks - it's club level, just order your nachos from the nice lady instead of getting up eight times while the puck is in play to get more food to shove down your maw while you miss the game you're supposed to be there to see!!

My neighbor went to the game tonight and I'm going to the game next Friday and sitting in Row 9. Anyone else going?

yep. i'll be there friday and saturday next week.

Same here, both nights in 125.

As bad as we played tonight, it's good to win games like that, we've outplayed alot of teams and still lost. Nice to see we're only a few points away from moving up the standings. David Jones was an animal. Wall was great again. Boychuck had a nice game as well.

For a team that's missing Mccormick, Hensick, Weiman, Cumiskey, Mcleod, and just lost Friesen and Hussey, I'd say we're doing alright.

Had a gig last night.
Wife and Nephew used the tickets...
Will be there Friday Nite, then Saturday, have another Gig, so will miss again...
ONLY MISSS 1 more game after that...!!!

I watched this game on tv at school and it was very boring for the 1st and 2nd period. The 3rd period seemed like 2 different teams and was very exciting. Love came through and gave the team energy while Jones was a beast in front of the net. Great win for Wall too!!

Would anybody be willing to sell me a copy of the game that was on FSN so I can watch on my computer. I live in Michigan. Will pay for shipping and your cost.

Thanks Bill (embs@chartermi.net)

Sorry, I erased it. You can catch them on the B2 network. I think I paid $6 to watch a game...
