Who would be crazy enough to complain about being put on a line with Lecavalier and St. Louis? Didn't that McGill education do anything for Mathieu Darche? Mad Matt was all smiles in the dressing on gameday in Jersey telling me about his 'hot-streak' with the Lightning 2 seasons ago. "I was on an energy line with Halpern and Michel Ouellet, and one day I come in and I see on the board our line is broken up. I thought 'why would coach do that? I've got 13 points in my last 20 games'. Then my buddies told me to get over it. I was moved to the line with Marty and Vinnie." Darche sure isn't complaining about getting on a line with Gionta for his first goal in bleu, blanc, rouge. "Have you ever held a broom in your life?!" I ask Martin Brodeur, who suggests if he could play any other sport at the Winter Games he'd try curling. Curling?! "Less effort," laughs the FHoF'er. But you've never touched a broom in your life, Marty! "That's true, and I haven't moved to many rocks, either!" he fires back as I leave the Devils room.

So Dags is challenging Benoit Pouliot for Designated Enforcer status on the Habs now? Michael Cammalleri tells me he feels D'Agostini's willingness to drop the gloves helped spark the team in the 3rd. Sure, but wouldn't you rather Dags get the hands going while still holding his stick?

Wouldn't you have loved Mikael Tam to come out and call for severe punishment and criminal charges against Cormier? I know, would have been been unfair to expect a teenager to settle the debate for the Hockey World, but who does the Q-League think it is...VANOC or Communist China for stifling free speech?

Has Jim Popp already hedged his bet on the possibility of losing Keron Williams, Jermaine McElveen or both? Former Baltimore Raven and Carolina Panther Lorenzo Williams signed Friday with the Als. Blink and you missed him on the practise roster for a few weeks in 2008, but the Panthers wouldn't have given him another look if he didn't have some talent.

You wanna know my NFL PICKS? My head says Favre vs. Manning in the Super Bowl. My heart says Sanchez vs. Brees.
