It is beyond me why we would not want to just crush Dallas and boot them from the playoffs. Instead we start Mc Sieve and play uninspired hockey for 40 minutes. To make it worse here in Tennessee we only have the Dallas feed. I need some shine.........

And it's honestly a good idea. These games mean nothing in the scheme of things so getting people some confidence heading into the playoffs is a good strategy. The other thing would be to actually work on structure, but this is a trap game for the Bolts. Florida is tomorrow and the players know this and this game doesn't mean jack for playoff implications really.
I don't disagree with you, but players can also change their mindset after the end of the season and look at the postseason as a fresh slate where everyone's starting at 0. I feel like he'll go with whatever works.

It will definitely be interesting to see how we assemble our top 6 for the playoffs assuming Kuch and Stammer are ready Game 1.

Yeah, let's crush his confidence even more just before the playoffs. We won't need him then.

Why does it matter if we do that? Last year Joseph got sent back to Syracuse after a bad stretch of games, Foote get sent back this year, Stephens has barely played this season. Why does Cirelli get a free pass when those players had to either get demoted or benched?

Ok. Good to get the toxic stuff out of our system before the playoffs start.

Now is the time to try and feed Cirelli his token, dambusting, point.
