As expected, Nick Boucher is in net for the Komets in Game 5 of the Turner Cup Finals, which Fort Wayne trails 3-1 to the Port Huron Icehawks.
I'm watching warm-ups and it's not good if you're a Fort Wayne fan -- the Komets are strolling out there. They might be nervous or they are just dispirited, tough to tell.
The only way I see Fort Wayne winning this game is via a great individual effort, like if Boucher turns in a shutout or if Colin Chaulk or Luciano Aquino just takes the team on their shoulders.
The referee is Bob Langdon, who doesn't call hardly any penalties, so the Komets would be wise to come out physically and set the tone. But they haven't done that in this series.

Justin please try not to read into warm-up's look at the first 5 minutes of this game to draw from that. That will be the sign to the game.

JC, from where you are sitting do you who where the PH play by play guy is? I want to see if he looks as goofy as he calls the games.

sorry for the multiple post. phone is acting up.

Yikes. You are Conley Triple. I will let him know that he is no longer needed to double post.

Great. Langdon. Might as well not even bother worrying about getting a penalty. Just throw down at the faceoff. If they're not physical tonight there will be no tomorrow.

Please keep us updated Justin! Stuck at home listening to the radio. If (knock on wood) Komets get knocked out tonight, as least I have the honor of listening to Chaser.

If we can't take advantage of Langon letting physical play go, then that is our own fault. If they don't hit, then Cohn was right.

Dennis is to my right, your left. Don't throw anything; it would ricochet off him and hit me.

Please let him know that I have actually loved his play by play in this series. Hope that is 3 more games!! :)
Posted by: Jerad Shaw. | May 08, 2008 at 07:41 PM
thanks. from where I am in section 202 I think I would end up hitting Randy or Tim.

Red Wings 2 Goals on 2 Shots on the same possesion. Only one counted though!!!
Posted by: Jerad Shaw. | May 08, 2008 at 07:49 PM
B2 Very choppy for me
Posted by: Jerad Shaw. | May 08, 2008 at 07:55 PM
Goal Curadeau, but then we scored 1st last night. And another PP as Cowan goes for a slash. Missing lots of chances apparently.
Posted by: Rob | May 08, 2008 at 08:01 PM
Red Wings score again. 2-0.
Posted by: Rob | May 08, 2008 at 08:08 PM
Solid 1st period by the K's they applied a lot of pressure on PH. Finally a PP goal and we are at least trying to take the body...Keep pressure on their D-men
Posted by: ToeBlake | May 08, 2008 at 08:10 PM
I missed the goal, but they are replaying the goal on b2! What song did they play after is the question???
Posted by: Jerad Shaw. | May 08, 2008 at 08:15 PM
B2 is sucking tonight!!!
