ST. Louis Warns Wings From Game

Hockey Betting Lines

But by then it was too late for the Senators, who dropped their second consecutive game.

 

Ottawa's Zack Smith lit the lamp just 1:42 into the game, but the Habs soon evened the contest. With Tomas Plekanec in the penalty box for tripping, Eller fought for control of a loose puck in the neutral zone, used his size to hold off Senators defenseman Erik Karlsson as he approached the left circle, then ripped a shot to the far side of the net. The puck flew past Anderson's glove, bounced off the post and went in.

 

Montreal grabbed a 4-1 lead 2:03 into the second period when Leblanc scored during a 3-on-2 counter-rush. Subban's wrister from the slot ended the surge.

 

Game Notes

 

It was Detroit's 11th straight home victory. The Red Wings haven't tasted defeat at Joe Louis Arena since November 3, 4-1 against Calgary.

 

St. Louis, which had won the previous three meetings, scored a 10-3 victory at Detroit on March 30.

 

Kronwall moved the Red Wings ahead with a successful wrister from the left point as the puck just sneaked inside the left post at 12:15.

 

The Blues struck first on the power play 6:51 into the opening period. With Darren Helm serving a penalty for holding the stick, Kevin Shattenkirk sent a shot from the high slot toward the net and D'Agostini was in front to deflect it by Howard.

 

With under 12 minutes left in the middle period, D'Agostini had an open opportunity from the right circle, but Howard made an incredible sprawling save.

 

The Red Wings cut the deficit in half with 63 seconds left in the second when Lidstrom let go a successful blast above the left circle. It was a power play goal, as D'Agostini was serving an interference penalty.

 

Game Notes

 

Scott Hartnell's first-period goal was the lone offense for the Flyers, who have lost four of their last five.

FOOTBALL TRASH TALK

NFL Football Trash Talk

Trash talk has a place in every competitive endeavor (except baseball; those stirrup-wearers are too busy chewing on their sunflower seeds and their supplements to worry about what their opponents are doing).

Fantasy sports is no exception. Any intelligent discussion of the subject would probably start with a thesis statement or a definition of terms. Thankfully, this wont be an intelligent discussion.

Let me just say that I am happy to take a place in this space alongside my talented colleagues, even our commissioner. (You should see how she bleats like a demented paper boy about league fees on our fantasy site).

Trash talking, I would argue, is primarily about amusing your friends, their sheeplike demeanors and sloping foreheads notwithstanding. The best place I have found for football trash talking is at www.SportsAlarm.com.

Beyond the entertainment factor, though, I would recognize that the sophomoric ritual has one advantage, when properly applied. It magnifies your fantasy triumphs and mitigates your fantasy failures by transforming the eventual point total into an afterthought. Winning makes it seem like your opponent really is a truss-owning, lapel-pin-wearing nitwit. And in defeat, trash talk can be the air bag to break the fall from your hyperbolic heights. The plug-necked yahoos on your team, you can say, will be sacking groceries by the end of the season.

The best trash talk, in my view, is layered and nuanced. And it doesnt focus only on your opponents team. It picks apart your opponent. The idea is to create a shock-and-awe-scale blizzard of nonsense, and the goal is to make your opponent drop his hands from his keyboard in exasperation.

What team does your opponent root for? Accuse a Giants fan of having a Joe Namath pillowcase. Wheres your opponent from? Give a look of concern no matter his reply, then say, I'll try to type slower for you next time. Is your opponent into politics? Label everyone a tax-and-spend corporate shill.

Cap all that with a liberal application of irrelevance. For instance, dont just conclude by saying your opponent is a twerp who drafts like my grandmother. Say that your opponent is a sweater-wearing, eyebrow-plucking twerp who drafts his team about as well as Zsa Zsa Gabor gave acceptance speeches at the Oscars. By the time your foe makes sense of that, his starting running back will have had puppies.

But what about you? Hmm? Recall a memorable slam? Have a tried-and-true technique? Know someone who seems impervious to insult? Take a moment and tells us about it. Put together some (fit-for-publication) thoughts. You wont be too busy returning phone messages from your friends, Im sure, to reply.

In addition to the trash talking, the Sports Alarm has a huge gallery of high resolution pictures of beautiful women and models in bikinis. The most popular models are: Lindsay Lohan, Carrie Underwood, Alessandra Ambrosio, and Paris Hilton.
