Rinne playing way into full-time job

Pekka Rinne hardly is a household name around the NHL. But if he keeps playing the way he has recently, he might be soon.

The 26-year-old Finn was almost flawless in goal for the Nashville Predators last week, winning all three of his starts, pitching shutouts in two of them. Rinne blanked the Sabres 2-0 in Buffalo on Monday, then stopped all 32 Minnesota shots he faced in a 1-0 home victory Saturday -- a game he played only because starter Dan Ellis hurt his knee in the morning.

Rinne has won his first six decisions, matching the franchise record held by Ellis. He's played (and won) four of the Preds' last five games, and with a 2.24 goals-against average and .917 save percentage, he's going to make it hard for coach Barry Trotz to avoid giving him more playing time.

Satriani vs Coldplay

Being a songwriter myself it's easy to get influenced by other songs or songwriters. There are only so many notes to choose from after all. The similarities are damn close. I will say that the mashups between the two songs are pretty killer. Coldplay could really kick it up a notch by adding some killer licks from Satch!

From Guitarworld.com:
In court papers filed in Los Angeles on December 4, 2008, guitarist Joe Satriani says Coldplay's song "Vida La Vida" used "substantial original portions" of his 2004 instrumental "If I Could Fly," from his album Is There Love in Space?

Satriani, 52, wants a jury trial and is seeking damages and "any and all profits" for the alleged plagiarism.
