A Friday/Saturday double win for the Devils.
A 4-2 win over the Senators on Friday, followed by a 5-4 win against the Thrashers after seeing Brodeur pulled at 3-1 down after 20 minutes. Even the greats have bad days.

And what happened in Toronto tonight shadows?
First thing... ESPN-UK actually showed the game!!!
And then I was able to watch the Leafs score twice and record a shutout.
After their collapse in last night's woeful 5-2 thumping by the Sabres, I wasn't expecting them to keep the Bruins at bay for 60 minutes. Just imagine where you'd be if Gustavsson hadn't had the heart problems/surgeries this season. Does this mean more bench time for Toskala?

Sorry, Jen bad night for Flyers against the Rangers... of all teams.

But good news for ila, a 3-0 win at the Islanders. Must've been down to these rookies the Habs used for the first time tonight.

At last Montreal broke their losing streak. It was happy dance time. A win at the Islanders is even sweeter.

I see you've found Montreal's new lineup.

Brodeur now has the shutout record all to himself, and for it to happen in a 4-0 Devils' win over their closest division rivals (Penguins), makes it 'happy dance' time for this Devils fan.

No happy dancing in Philadelphia or Toronto , but in Montreal the new rookies are causing quite a stir, back-to-back wins for the Habs and those cheeky rookies show that when you come from behind late in the 3rd period, even an OT win deserves a happy dance.

I think shadows may be wishing Toronto had picked up Brodeur a long time ago.

The attached picture looks something like my happy dance.

Thought a word on the Bruins was in order. They won last night, and Milan Lucic says he may be able to skate for a while in the Winter Classic on New Year's Day at Fenway Park!
