It's going to be a long, long 6 months

I recently heard they would have to go 10-3 to have a shot at the playoffs. They’ve just gotten the 3 losses out of the way early.

 

[Ace]

The worst part of feeling this way about the team today is knowing you’re going to feel exactly the same about them in October.

 

[SundherDome]

Time for the annual "start playing the kids" sans this game as it's the end of the west coast. Really would have liked to see this team play within a structure this year if they were going to miss the playoffs

I'd like to see Kulich in a top 6 deployment and PP1 as the RW shot option for a few games to see where he is at.

In the meantime, Calgary has been trying the retool on the fly. I'm curious to see what team they get tonight. The Vancouver game last night was pretty energetic, might catch them a little tired tonight.

They decided they would try to win at home for once.

[Panthaz89]

now that we are out of the playoff race its time to win should just tell the team they have no chance at the playoffs every game and don't tell them their record. They actually play well when they have no pressure on them to do well.

 

[SundherDome]

I'm surprised they go back to UPL after the EDM game.

I'd like that as well, time for his Litmus. I'd also like to see Weissbach get some games, I don't think they see him as anything though.

 

[5 Minute Major]

We’ll see.

I think what has the potential to drag us down is Granato and his staff. No changes there and I think we will be the same old team, regardless of player personnel moves.

Changes behind the bench will give me optimism.

Is this site slower than a turtle or is it just me?

Sure seems like someone forgot to feed the hamsters.

This site is slower rn than me when a lady hits on me

Yep, it's everyone.

 

[Ehran]

Yep, it's everyone.

Toronto must have done something.

 

[toddkaz]

Game 1 of our 10 game winning streak. Then we go 10-3 just like we planned

 

[Chainshot]

Nice burst from Rousek to make sure that wasn't an odd-man rush.

 

[Ralonzo]

Nice burst from Rousek to make sure that wasn't an odd-man rush.

He's a ridiculous skater without the puck but it's like he's half speed when he's transporting it.

 

[Chainshot]

Joki with another unforced error.

 

[Chainshot]

Krebsie!

 

[sabres4ever]

Krebs!

This still doesn't get you out of my doghouse.
