Another solid game. Most importantly he played therefore the injury must have been minor. Hopefully the minor injuries get some time to heal before the first playoff game. He should be a bigger force in the playoffs when he gets to play with Streit or O'Byrne instead of Brisebois. He will be able to focus more on his responsibilities then covering for Brisebois.

Tonight was probably the best game I've seen Hammer play since joining our team. He was a left handed Komisarek out there with bone-crushing bodychecks, and was a wall back there. That's why I had been wanting us to go get him for a few years now.

He played like a monster tonight!! I just loved watching him out there, like he was simply amazing! I hope to see lots more of this throughout the playoffs.

Basically he has been asleep for 82 games because tonight he raised his game 10 notches and threw his first real devastating hit wearing the CH.

he played pissed off, and im alittle shocked to tell ya the truth

ya.. that performance tonight was incredible. He was playing so physical and still playing extremely smart and not letting his emotions take over. Was amazing to see

He played tremendous and definitely laid the smack of the night, but he was far from 'asleep' for 82 games. That or he's a pretty good sleepwalker.

Normally he plays the type of game where he is a huge part of the team, yet never gets noticed. Tonight he made himself noticed in a very good way. Offensively, defensively, and physically he was great, probably our top dman out there tonight.

Agree with all the comments on his game last night -- best I've seen from him / absolute monster -- the Hammer!! -- putting licks on them Bruins!! :D:lol:

Hhhmmmmm???! Carbo (brilliantly) at work again? Starts Hammer and Brise and they respond with their best 'AAA' games?!!

outstanding in the crease, along the boards, and as an imposing physical presence.

the western conference side of him came out like gang-busters last night :)

Of mention:

I was watching the Clg/SJ game after the Montreal game, last night. I noticed how bad they were at moving the puck on the PP. I bet they really miss Hamrlik. They looked awful in their transition game. On the PP they couldn't even setup. Phaneuf is over-rated, and I had been saying well before Gainey signed Hamrlik that Hamrlik anchored that pairing. I'm very glad he's a part of our club!

He is so good and steady that I forget how good he is. He goes back. Takes the puck and player out. End of the offensive threat. The only time in weeks he looked bad was on the bouncing puck that resulted in the Sturm breakaway. No harm.

I actually was surprised that he got a star in the first game. But he did deserve it. The worst losing streak of 3 games was when Hammer was out with the flu. Let's hope he stays healthy.

hammer was my off-season pipe-dream (i thought he'd be asking too much money. we paid for him, certainly, but this season has been worth every penny). how happy am i?! :D

off topic alert:

in calgary's defense...(pun intended) they played a poor game last night. i'm sure they miss hammer but their first game against the sharks was much better; i'd even go so far as to say they dominated. game three will be a better indication of who will make it out of the series (i have hope for the flames yet).

I am SO GLAD we got this guy!! He really showed his dominance last night. I now have high hopes that if we make it to the finals, we can beat any Western Conference team. What a major league hit on Lucic!

Monster game from the Hammer. Our best d-man on the ice apart from Markov.

And let's not forget how brutal the team was earlier this season when he got hurt... Gotta love the guy. He wants to be here and he's a great performer.
