(Late) Congratulations to Jeremy Roenick



… for scoring his 500th goal two night ago against the Coyotes. The goal itself was unconventional: shot from center ice, bounced off the back boards, bounced off Alex Auld’s back and into the net. Roenick joined the ranks of Mike Modano and Joe Mullen as American-born players with 500 career goals.

In another scheduling quirk, the Sharks face the Coyotes again tonight. If the Sharks can keep up the play from the last game, then there should be no problem notching another win. At least I hope.

[UPDATE] Sharks pounded the Coyotes 5-0. I wish FSN broadcasted the game so I wouldn't have to watch the carnage that was the 49ers/Seahawks game. Flat out terrible. Eh, I might as well do a little odds & ends link dump.
