Around SBN: Raiders' GM Begins The Purge

Memo to Guy Carbonneau: Keep your mouth shut

From SovSport via OFB

SovSport: The whole team played a very emotional game.
 
"We wanted to prove to Montreal that we must be respected. Here are Carbonneau's words that he said after the game in Washington three weeks ago "
 
Ovechkin pointed to a piece of paper that was put on the wall where Carbonneau's words about luck and not really testing Theodore were highlighted. And then Ovechkin added:
 
"What now? What will Carbonneau say after tonight's game? That we were lucky again?"

That’s great, isn’t it?

In fairness, though, the quote was taken out of context in some places (if I recall correctly, Carbo said the Caps “were lucky, but you make your own luck,” etc., but it only appeared in some places as the Caps “were lucky” – Carbo was giving credit to the Caps for outworking them).

Whatever – still nice to see the Caps take motivation from it.

And still a dumb thing for Carbo to say.

OT Hockey 2/8
Evgeny Kuznetsov hams it up as he joins the Russia men's national team for the "Sweden Games" leg of the Euro Hockey Tour in Helsinki, Finland.

There's a bit of controversy as their game against the Finns is scheduled to be played in Helsinki's outdoor Olympic Stadium.   Where the daytime temps are currently approximately minus-15 degrees Celsius, with periodic heavy snow.

This interview with head coach Zinetula Bilyaletdinov is fascinating, as he frets about the weather and especially when the reporters press him on the leaked reports that Kuznetsov will be centering the top line for Team Russia, just weeks after his 20th birthday.
