Isles at San Jose tonight, so Moulson and Murray can say "hi."

Isles at San Jose tonight, so Moulson and Murray can say "hi."

I'm not sure that Moulson will appreciate the way Murray is likely to say "hi."

Isles at San Jose tonight, so Moulson and Murray can say "hi."

I'm not sure that Moulson will appreciate the way Murray is likely to say "hi."

Or vice versa.

[Trotsky]

San Jose won 2-1 in a shootout; nothing on the board for either.  Moulson (17:07) was among the 5 Islanders who were +1, Murray (20:31) was among the 5 Sharks who were -1.

[Trotsky]

O'Byrne will presumably have his Avalanche debut tonight in Columbus.  Good seats are still available.  The 'Lanche website shows him wearing 3 at least until Colorado retires Émile Bouchard's number.

The November CHA Newsletter provides a handy run-down of where the alumni in the pros are playing, though it still has O'Byrne playing for the "Montreal Canadiennes."  (For some reason the list omits Joe Scali- CHL Laerdo Bucks and Blake Gallagher-ECHL Las Vegas Wranglers).

O'Byrne's 24:51 led all Colorado skaters in a 5-1 win at Columbus tonight. He was also a +1.

O'Byrne's 24:51 led all Colorado skaters in a 5-1 win at Columbus tonight. He was also a +1.

Indicating that he was on the ice for 2 of Colorado's goals since he got beat on the Columbus goal in the first period.

I caught bits and pieces of the Colorado pre-game interviews and they had a lot of nice things to say about OB. Coach Joe Sacco said that they really wanted to work on Ryan's confidence since he hasn't had much playing time at all this season. 25 minutes of ice time and playing solidly after a rough start to the game should help with that.

[sah67]

Ryan O'Byrne had 2/3 of a Gordie Howe Hat Trick last night in the Avs' 6-3 win against St. Louis, with an assist and a fight.  He was also a +3 on the night.

Murray did not play against the Kings last night due to a lower body injury. He left the previous game against the flames early.

From the ECHL transaction page, Doug Krantz is still playing and has been traded from Cincinnati to Toledo.

Michael Kennedy is still with the Florida Everblades and has 1G, 4A and is a +2. The Everblades are hosting Toledo this weekend.

My trips to Estero this fall have not been in sync with the Everblades home games.
