I think Vinik should withhold all the coaches paychecks until they come up with a PP that doesn't look like an old Laurel and Hardy routine.

Not scoring is one thing. Looking stupid while not scoring is worse. Both of those things with the kind of offensive talent this team has is unforgivable.

An ok first, hope to see them pick things up in the 2nd and 3rd.

Some team should just play ES like they're on the PK and watch our offense wither. :laugh:

That's the thing, if they take shots, instead of playing keep away, and really get around the net then at least the PP looks good and it's just a matter of time you pot one of those. They could not even get set up and when they did they pass out of the zone.

One big positive: The Triplets are getting in sync.

They're a 1/4 beat off right now. Passes are not on the tape / in stride to one another just yet. They are still dangerous though, despite it.

Killorn and Namesy are dragging their lines down. Killorn with 2 **** icings and his typical falling down and apparently he's given the bug to Namesy as well.

We thought 3rd line duty was more Killorn's speed but he can't seem to handle it so far. Really disappointed in Namesy. Paquette should take his spot soon.

Yeah, I really thought Namesy was going to be good this season. So disappointing. A strong breeze knocks him over.

PP time continues, I was hoping that they would play the 2nd unit since they scored last game but I'm not surpsied by this, though I doubt they score.

Gotta bury that, Stammer.

At least it's a solid chance, I guess. If Kuch can find Stamkos like that once a game, it'll be huge for us over the course of a season, even if Stamkos misses his share.

Refs have figured out we can't score on the PP. The conspiracy continues.

Legit call this time though.

Does any other team have their wide shots go all the way out of the zone as much as us?

Two pleasant surprises in roughly 90 minutes of hockey this season have been Filppula and Carle. Flip looks like 2013 Flip, and Carle just doesn't suck. So far.
