I'm not so sure we'll even need to stuff the ballot.

Humiliating effort for the Ducks.  Niedermayer is a -4 (and make it -7 combined for the family).  Ouch.  My Michigan rookie friend Matt Hunwick gets an assist on Bitz's goal and a goal of his own after coming back up to the B's from the minors.

Apparently not; Bitz is currently sitting at ~64%.

He finished at 69% and beat out Savard and Ryder for the weekly honors. ::rock::

The pregame talk was all about how well he's transitioned, done what was asked of him, and rounded out the B's 4th line.

Sawada's a healthy scratch in Dallas today.

Bitz just got a small feature on Coach's Corner between during the 1st intermission in tonight's SJ/Mon game.  Cherry talking about how he plays the game "right".

I was going to make a comment to that effect but was too lazy.

And cheating by with dirty stick work.

Sawada was sent back to the AHL today to make room for the Avery recall waiver move. Even though Avery will never play for Dallas again they still need to make room so Ray was sent to Manitoba. Word is, he's still on the team plane headed to San Jose for the game tomorrow and might play on their road trip this week still.
