Sittin' at the end of the bar...

It's a little known fact...

-- That Jeremy Roenick has six goals... and five of them are game-winners.

-- That almost half of Patrick Sharp's goals (five of his 11) are of the short-handed variety.

-- That Jason Blake has two goals...on 102 shots (1.96 percent). There are guys in this league who could do better blindfolded.

-- That the top three scorers in intra-divisional play are all Tampa Bay Lightning (Vincent Lecavalier (29 points), Martin St. Louis (23), and Vaclav Prospal (21)). Small wonder that Tampa has earned 17 of their 22 points in the Southeast Division.

-- Sergei Gonchar leads the league in power play scoring (3-13-16). Bet you'd have gone through a lot of names before settling on Matt Cullen as the number two guy (4-11-15).

-- That the worst three players in terms of giveaways all hail from the Los Angeles Kings (Lubomir Visnovsky, Anze Kopitar, Alexander Frolov)...any wonder why they are 9-13-1?

-- That Brendan Shanahan has only seven goals on 117 shots...but he's 2-for-4 in shootouts, and both goals were game-deciding ones.

-- That Joe Sakic is -5...doesn't sound like much, but if he keeps that up, it will be his first minus season in more than ten years (1996-1997, when he was -10).

-- That Pascal Leclaire is on a pace for 20 shutouts. That would eclipse the post-expansion era record of 15 (Tony Esposito, 1969-1970) and would be within shouting distance of the all-time record of 22 (George Hainsworth, 1928-1929).

-- That Martin Brodeur is on a pace to lose 36 games, based on the share of Devils' games he's played so far and his current record. That was almost two years' worth (37) the back-to-back years the Devils went to the Stanley Cup Finals (1999-2000 and 2000-2001).

-- Two goalies on the same club...one is 5-5-1, 2.90, .864...the other is 10-1-1, 1.66, .930. One is Chris Osgood, the other is Dominik Hasek. Which is which?....wrong!
