And Greening got his 19th assist as his Senators trounced the isles.

Scrivens with more accolades at the AHL level.
Toronto Maple Leafs
The American Hockey League announced today that Ben Scrivens of the Toronto Marlies has been named the Reebok/AHL Goaltender of the Month for March. Scrivens was 6-3-0 with a 1.40 goals-against average and led the league with a 0.952 save percentage and three shutouts as the Marlies closed in on a division title.

Injury Report: Scrivens figures to get the call again Tuesday for Toronto with both James Reimer (upper body) and Jonas Gustavsson (lower body) ailing.
Looks like another Miller-Scrivens clash tonight.

Yeah, I caught that. Each time Jeanneret says his name this game it has been pronounced incorrectly and a few different ways. He did have what looked like a good save on Pominville's breakaway during a Toronto PP.

Toronto was unable to hold the lead and lost 6-5 in OT. Scrivens mishandled the puck behind the net a handful of times, but didn't give up a goal on those flubs. I thought he was very strong in the 2nd against an all but absent Toronto defense. Definitely some weird calls from the officials, including a huge, lengthy scrum (I think everyone but Miller was in the crease) leading to Buffalo's tying goal late in the 3rd. It's hard to tell how the official saw the loose puck, yet didn't seem to call the goal immediately as it crossed the line. The Buffalo announcers also questioned a tripping minor called on Scrivens (which led to a Buf PPG), since his poke-check hit the puck before the player's skates. I have my patented Red-tinted glasses, but I think he played pretty well and isn't to blame for their loss.

I don't see any bias from your Red-tinted glasses in that analysis. I am a Buffalo fan so watching the game was interesting because each team at any given time was having its share of mishaps. I was holding my breath and shaking my head when Scrivens mishandled the puck a few times. Once, he passed it directly to Pominville. That was fairly egregious. I don't remember any such mental errors during his days at Cornell. However, the tying goal was absurd. Objectively, I hate when officials do that to goaltenders. I don't care if it's a team playing against Cornell. It was a mess. I think you are right when saying that Miller was the only one not in the Toronto crease. There is no way that the official could see the puck at that time. Scrivens said something to the official after, I am sure noting what a mess it was. Scrivens had a generally solid game, not nearly as uneventful for his play as the game he had in Toronto on Saturday, but good nonetheless because Buffalo did not and could not convert on the handful of errors that he did make.

That, sir, is because you weren't around his first year. He had this one terrible play where he went behind the net to grab a puck, fell on his ass, and the opposing player scored an empty netter. He learned to stay in the goal after a while.

In addition to the Community Service Award, Matt Moulson received the Islanders “Good Guy” Award, presented annually to the player who best displays professionalism, courtesy and cooperation with the media. The recipient is selected by the Long Island Chapter of the Professional Hockey Writers Association.
“Matt is a very accessible, very easygoing guy on a team with lots of good quotes,” Newsday beat writer Arthur Staple said. “He’s a real professional.”

Regardless of whether Bitz's punishment seems excessive compared to Weber's, it's hard to defend his actions. It seems he's trying to make his niche in the NHL as a more physical player than he was in college, and this is an instance where he's costing both himself and his team.Rita

I thought Bitz deserved 1 game, it was a mistake and needs to be punished. How on earth did Weber not get 3-4 games? There's no other conclusion than there's a different standard for star players in the playoffs.
I'm a big Brendan Shanahan fan, I think he's a straightforward guy without an agenda. He works out at my gym and his kid plays at the same rink as mine, I know him a little bit. I almost wonder if this was handed down to him from above? I'm generally not a conspiracy theorist but my goodness, Weber grabbed his head and intentionally smashed it against the glass.

Shanahan's explanation on why Bitz got 2 games (sorry, the insert URL button and my crappy PC are having issues today). I can see the rationale behind Bitz's suspension, but I'm still looking for an explanation why Weber only got fined and no suspension (besides the "star player" one).

Looking at the video, it did not look simply like an egregious hit from behind. Rather, Bitz appears to be trying to make contact with Clifford from the side. Clifford does angle slightly towards Bitz and is clearly aware of the impending hit.

Being more physical might work for him, given that he couldn't hit whatsoever (in my opinion) in college. Bitz had a lot of skills, but every time he tried to hit someone he'd kinda dive at them.

Thank you.
But I'm reasonably certain I actually shouted it during the second semi-final, when Sucks was facing Colgate. We'd already beaten Vermont in the early game, so we had the luxury of just hanging around and taunting Sucks and Colgate to our hearts' content.

A bit off-topic (but what are postseason threads for?), but my favorite was when we were playing UVM. I don't remember the exact working, but during a lull in play one of my friends called out, "Hey UVM! Only two states voted for Taft in his 1912 reelection campaign -- one was Utah, and the other was YOU!" I think the whole section turned around to give him this "" look. Priceless.

Other non-CU ECACers doing well include Andy McDonald. He is wreaking havoc on the Douglas Murray's Sharks. The fact that the Blues goalie, Brian Elliott, is also doing quite well does not at all make this series more palatable for CU or Sharks fans.

Shades of misogyny aside, someone shouting "we respect your decision to keep your maiden name!" at hyphen at the 2005 ECAC finals is still the best comment I've ever heard.
A bit off-topic (but what are postseason threads for?), but my favorite was when we were playing UVM. I don't remember the exact working, but during a lull in play one of my friends called out, "Hey UVM! Only two states voted for Taft in his 1912 reelection campaign -- one was Utah, and the other was YOU!" I think the whole section turned around to give him this "" look. Priceless.
Clearly, we need to break out the Robert LaFollette taunts the next time we play Wisconsin.

Right, but he died before the electoral college met, and although some electors tried to vote for him, congress refused to certify their votes.

If I was voting, I'd probably go with Campbell. To me it just seems harder for a defenseman to not get penalties than a forward. However I don't have any data to back that up.

Interview with Ben Scrivens after the Toronto Marlies swept Rochester 3-0 in their AHL playoff series.
I have to add that former RPI player Jerry D'Amigo was awarded the #1 Star in each of the three games with a total of five goals and one assist. The 'Tute certainly could have used him and and Brandon Pirri last season.
Edit: I apologize if the correct video doesn't come up with that link. It should be one of those on the page.

I see what you're saying, but playing defense doesn't necessarily translate to penalties.

I don't have any data to back that up either but during one of the intermissions in last night's Rangers game, they showed the Lady Bing nominees and the commentator said something like "You usually don't see any defensemen nominated for this one." That seems to support your theory.

I think you're both right, and I don't feel like looking it up, but a top pairing defenseman plays probably about 5 minutes more per game than a top line forward (unless the forward is Ilya Kovalchuk). I think defenseman probably average more PIM/minute on the ice also, especially if you exclude enforcers, but even if the PIM/min was equal, a defenseman would be expected to get more penalties than a forward.

Referencing the linked article, it has been 58 years since the last defensemen won this award. For most of those, I bet the NHL never announced any nominations, just the winner.

Campbell led the league in minutes played (partly because he took so few penalties). He's the front-runner, but Moulson isn't far behind given his prodigious scoring ability.

The 25-man rosters aren't final until later this week. But I don't think any more teams can be eliminated from the NHL playoffs before then, so it'll be interesting to see what changes are made.

That's one way to look at it. Another is that Gainey is there to take over for Nieuwendyk if the team isn't successful.
