Finally.

I don't wish him a serious injury, but hopefully it's severe enough to keep him out of the line up for a few games.

 

[WHY LIE GUY]

The quietest ironman streak ever? I've watched a few Penguins games over the past few seasons and can't say I've ever noticed him playing.

Exactly.

He should have been scratched a long time ago but he was a big favourite with Bylsma. I guess he saw a lot of himself in him.

 

[Will Hunting]

The main reason why he was playing should be over now, right... RIIGHT??

 

[Common Sense]

319 straight games of Craig Adams. That's absolutely embarrassing.

He's been better under Johnston mainly because he's getting about 9 minutes a game compared to the 12.5 minutes under Bylsma .

The fact that Craig Adams has even played 319 games is astonishing to me.

I feel bad for being happy about it, but Farnham playing over Adams should be happening anyway.

It wouldn't be out of the question for him to end up with 1000 games (he's already at 1000 if you include playoffs).

 

[Big McLargehuge]

He should have been scratched in about 250 of those games.

Thank god

Adams has played 912 NHL games.....you read that correct, 912!!!!! A player like him should not even have half of that.
