Once more into the breach dear friends...

This is your X-men update.

Highlights:

Ben Bishop lost 1, got hurt, came back and looked good in a win, but the REAL highlight was his response to a cup check...

Brad Boyes scored in 2 of his last 3 games. 

Matt D’Agostini scored the Sabres only goal in their 7-1 curbstomping by the avalanche.

Radek Dvorak hasn’t played since the 27th and it is rumored that the Canes are looking for replacements.

Lars Eller’s pointless streak continues.

Erik Johnson had 3 assists in Colorado’s Buffalo beatdown and ended up with 4 on the week.

David Perron had 5 points in the last week, with his second career hat trick against Vancouver and 2 assists against Buffalo. Edmonton has won 4 out of 5, which may explain the cold temperatures lately.

Kris Russell is day-to-day with an injury. Again.

Lee Stempniak is on a tear with 1 goal and 5 assists in his last 5 games. Calgary has won 5 in a row. THAT must be what explains the colder temperatures lately.

Tyson Strachan has been called up to Washington and has played their last 2 games, averaging about 15 minutes per.

Dennis Wideman has 3 points in 2 games.

Viewing guide for the upcoming week:

Nikita and the Blue Jackets beat Anaheim 4-2 yesterday...Root for them later this week in back-to-backs against San Jose and the Kings.

Watch Calgary and Edmonton see if they can keep their unlikely win streaks alive against the hapless teams in the metropolitan division.
