You know, I was just going to write a whole big rant about how annoyed I am with the Pittsburgh Penguins, but the New York Islanders took care of buzz-ness for me and scored two goals in like nine-millionths of a second to tie their game against the Pens at three-all on our Nation’s President’s Day.

Thank you, New York Islanders. You guys actually are good for something.

I love President’s Day hockey. It’s always good times.

I hope the Penguins lose. Seriously.

They’re winning too much. I don’t like it. Yeah yeah, from an NHL-this-is-good-for-the-league standpoint, I’m sure it’s dandy and all, but I’m a Devils fan damnit. My team is supposed to be the hot team, not theirs! Oh, I know, the Devils winning is more of a not-so-good-for-the-league type of deal, but boo. BOO.

Besides, as long as Marc Andre Fleury dons the Banana Pads, I reserve the right to be disgruntled. The NHL is not ready for a Stanley Cup goaltender wearing Banana Pads. It’s just not right.

Oh, the trade deadline is coming up. I still think there will be a few more trades than people think. Maybe not Devil trades, but trades nonetheless. By the by, what is up with Colin White? I’m telling you, anger problems create stress, stress creates sickness and injury. Give him Anger Management and he’ll be back in the lineup in no time. Otherwise, we might as well trade for Derian Hatcher.

…oh wait…
