We Win, Canes Lose, We Win, Canes Lose...

after being shut out last night (i'm trying to forget about that), we won 3-2.

Patrik Elias and Johnny Madden wanted to be like Brian Gionta, so they were out tonight with groin injuries too. Gio was placed on IR and two of my favorite Lowellers, DAVID CLARKSON and ROD PELLEY, were called up. neither had a point, but they both did awesomely, Clarkson with quite a few shots and several hits, and Pelley also with a few shots and nearly all of his face offs won. Clarkson was on the 2nd line with Zach Parise and Travis Zajac in place of Jamie Langenbrunner, who was playing on the first line with Gomez and Rasumssen. Pelley was on the 3rd line in place of Madden.

:39 into the first, Gomez decided to be useful and scored the 1st goal, but the canes tied it up soon after. no scoring in the 2nd, but the third saw a goal from the canes and also goals form both Erik Rasmussen and ZACH PARISE. so we won.

Langenbrunner, Rasmussen (Gomez)

**Brian Gionta was placed on IR, counting the games since Mar. 6. he'll play a max. of 5 games before the playoffs. Elias and Madden should be back after a game or two each.
