Whoa. I had no idea Mike Modano married Willa Ford. I also had no idea she was still alive. I kinda thought my rocking out to "I Wanna Be Bad" was in memorium rather than still being relevant. (I know that either way, it's not cool, but thankfully for me, I'm comfortable being the outcast).

I'm now considering TPL to be not only my go-to place for A+ hockey analysis and humor, but also for pertinent celebrity gossip.

Pure pleasure perusing purple prose!

Your comments echo those of Baroque on the Friday Morning Jo post. Everyone's waiting on Leino's explosion, and you can both add me to the list. I would really like to see the kind of production he seemed to be capable of last year in his few games with the big club.

Can you picture that spin-move goal, his first in the NHL? I just don't even remember that version of Ville Leino, though I know it's still in him...

I hope you're both right and this is a big game for Ville.

I'm just glad that the Stars don't have anybody named Rick on their roster. That would make calling out Mark Fistric's name awkward.

This is another "shouldn't lose" game. I'm pulling for a big day from Leino. I'm going to keep pulling for him until he has a two-game stretch like Bert did to get people off his back.
