Over in New Jersey 1st year coach John MacLean made the baffling decision to make star signing Kovalchuck a healthy scratch.It didn't work as they lost and still haven't won at home.Devils GM Lamarillo isn't known for being patient and after getting into cap trouble to sign Kovalchuck I can't see him being pleased to see a fit player in the press box rather than on the ice earning his 6 million salary.I think MacLeans stay as Devils coach could be short unless things change quickly
Not the best way to use your most expensive asset, still can't understand why the Devils made the deal.
Hawks halt the slide with a 3-1 win against LA. Another great display from Turco the up side but the downside is an injury to Hossa, plus Quenneville not happy with the defensive work by the forwards. Last season Hawks outshot just about every opponent but this season are getting outshot themselves in fact last 6 on the trot, maybe why Quenneville pin pointing defensive effort from the forwards.
