Game 17: Coyotes 4, Wild 3

Bad loss. Bad, bad loss.

1. Manny got sieve-itis on a couple. I hope this clears up soon.

2. Gretzky's nose is getting longer.

3. Martin Skoula needs to take the body. The game winner for Phoenix was not entirely his fault, but if he moved someone out of the front of the net we'd be looking at overtime. I'm still waiting to see the Skoula that played so well for the Avalanche a few years back.

4. Boogaard had a nice run. LaRaque wins their fight and proves he's the NHL's strongman. LaRaque can also play some good power forward. What a badass puck controller he is.

In Nashville on Thursday. When will this stinkin' road trip end?

By the time Skoula's tenure in Colorado was over, he was being booed by fans and was a whipping boy of the media. He's too slow and he's too soft.

When friggin useless Oleg Saprikin scores 2 goals on you, you know you've had a bad game.

Minnesota is still very solid and will be a playoff treat.

The Dads have left the building, at long last.

My memories of Skoula were of the Stanley Cup winning ilk. I'm appreciative of the reminder of his latter days in Denver.

Oleg Sprikin's bringing sexy back.
