Last Night, It Was All About Sven and Nino. Sort Of.

The games: Islanders vs. Washington. Portland Winterhawks vs. Calgary Hitmen (WHL).

Why I chose them: I'm a season ticket holder for Portland, and obviously I must keep track as Nino's official NHL debut unfolds.

On the home front: We went down hard 5 -1 to the reigning 2010 WHL champions. But on a lighter note, Nino scored his first very pretty NHL goal.

And guess who scored the one Portland goal?: Sven Bartschi. With a little help from Ty Rattie and Ryan Johansen. But of course. Unfortunately it was a little too late in the third period, but it beats a shutout. You can read all about it here: www.oregonlive.com/hawks.

As for Nino: What else is there to say? You. Go. Boy.

I shall return later tonight with more highlights and the next installment of the CBA.
