Bertuzzi, Up To His Old Tricks

Petr Puck scored 2, but the Rangers gave up a late goal to the Canucks and lost 3-2. I tried to follow the 'play-by-play' of the 3rd period by getting the text feed from newyorkrangers.com. What a strange way to follow the action: getting a browser refresh every 20 seconds or so, and scrolling down to see terse one line descriptions. I've followed a baseball game that way, which isn't so bad, because baseball is a much slower game, what with all of the cleat-tapping, chaw-spitting, protective cup-adjusting, etc. that goes on between every pitch.

Here's the last 3 minutes of the 3rd period:

299 3 19:37 SHOT NYR EV 14 WARD, Slap, 49 ft

Anyway, the New York Times had this photo of S.O.B. Todd Bertuzzi, being his usual thug self.
