What's worse than bad hockey?  Maybe boring hockey.  This team is officially ready for the Olympic break.  Too bad they've got four more games until they get to it.  The boys have not brought their best effort the last two games, and in honor of them, I will not be bringing my best effort to this recap.  That's right, as the Hawks go, I go.

So you're getting no good, no bad, and no ugly.  Cristobal Huet played a good game and Colin Fraser scored a goal, but the rest of it is hardly worth mentioning.  Unless you like ex-Blackhawks.  Do you like ex-Blackhawks?  You do?  What the hell is wrong with you?  Anyway, our old friends Robert Lang, Adrian Aucoin, Jim Vandermeer and Radim Vrbata were in town.  And hey, a shitload of ex-Hawks have landed in Phoenix: Dan Cleary, Tony Amonte, Keith Carney,Jeremy Roenick, Dave Manson, Brian Noonan, Jimmy Waite, Jocelyn Lemiuex and Jim Cummins.  That's right, I was so underwhelmed by tonight's game that I'd rather put together that list than write anything substantive about the game.

So, in conclusion, here's what you need to know: Huet was good, Fraser scored, the penalty killing was effective and generated more chances than the power play which was a clown act and the officiating was terrible for both sides.  Also apparently Adrian Aucoin is a shootout master now.

Oh, and some guy at the game really doesn't like Cam Barker.

But you know what?  I don't want to go to bed angry.  That's always bad.  So instead, I'll cheer myself up by watching Eddie Jovanovski get punched in the face again.  Now that's something everyone can enjoy.
