Showdown in Detroit
Tim Kennedy (earlier gallery) teams up with Nate Gerbe (earlier gallery) against his former Michigan State teammate Justin Abdelkader.
Kennedy & Abdelkader teamed up in 2007 to beat Gerbe’s Boston College Eagles in a heartbreaker for the national championship. Just to even things out tonight – former Eagle Patrick Eaves is on the ice for Detroit so each team has an Eagle & Spartan.
Okposo – mild concussion; Stoa & Kennedy score
Good to read that Kyle Okposo was able to fly home with the New York Islanders last night after a huge hit (hit comes around the 1:00 minute mark) by Dion Phaneuf in Calgary – Calgary Herald on reaction to hit; Newsday re: his condition.
Okposo’s former teammate with both the Minnesota Golden Gophers and Team USA (the two won bronze at the 2007 WJC in Sweden), Ryan Stoa, scored the gamewinner last night in the Colorado Avalanche’s 3-1 defeat of the Dallas Stars. From the Denver Post: “I just went in with the pump fake and they both went down, and slid it in there low-glove,” Stoa said. “I’m excited and I had a lot of fun tonight.”
Former Michigan State Spartan Tim Kennedy scored his first preseason goal for his hometown Buffalo Sabres (definitely this season; not sure if he did last year) cutting the Washington Capitals lead to 1 goal in their 4-3 defeat of the Sabres.
