And off we GO! Opening Night!

Start of the 3rd and I'm charging the laptop because that too now has died. It's not my night for electronics is it? But it's interesting sitting here with Jim Baumbach and Eden Laiken from Newsday. So this is what happens up here. Interesting for sure. But poor Brian from The Fourth Period isn't going to be able to handle my screaming.

Okay, I'm going to go enjoy the game. Later all.

2nd period, so I go downstairs to say hi to everyone and hang out in the blog box and low and behold, within the first few minutes, JT scores his first NHL goal. I'm so glad I was down there. I screamed. Matt Moulson looked even happier than JT. It was beautiful!!!

6:35: And Mark Streit makes it 1 - 1 with a beautiful shot past MA Fluery. But then again, Big Angry Man always says "If you can't score five on 3, you shouldn't be playing the game."

11:10: And non other than Sidney Crosby makes it 1 -0. Never let sidney get near the puck. If he does, he scores.
Okay, wjy is Joel out there? He bumped Rupp and Jackman took care of things... um. . Sort of.

13:35: Matt Moulson takes a shot on MA Fluery that really should have gone in, and McKee takes a penalty. Okay, I guess this will be the MM show instead of the JT show tonight. They just congratulated Guerin on the Jumbotron. He is a good guy, and it was a good move for him. He should thank Garth.

JT back out on the ice behind the net.

15:35 Matt Moulson on his second shift with John Tavares take sa Goaltender interference penalty. Guess he's not as smart as we thought. (that's what someone up here said.)

Let's kill off this penalty. They have one more minute left.

The crowd is pumped, looks like Roloson will start in goal and Doug Weight came out to a rousing round of applause as he was introduced as the new NY Islanders Captain for 2009-2010. We finally made it people. It's John Tavares night at the Barn.
