Rock opens at 5pm tomorrow? Also, is there anyone who doesn't think we're better with Mueller in for Lovejoy?

Yeah this is a really dumb take. The PK is also at 25% with Zajac on it, should we scratch him too? Should we scratch Coleman?
we need lower line players that can make something out of nothing and Grabner does that.
I don't really care if Stafford, Grabner, Gibbons, or Bratt is in the final spot. None have been very good and none will log many minutes. But you keep trying to relitigate the trade. Like if Grabner keeps playing bad that makes it a moronic trade. It doesn't. The trade obviously hasn't worked, but that doesn't make it a bad move on paper or the wrong decision at the time. It just didn't work, oh well. I'm gonna enjoy the playoff run, I don't give half a **** about a 2nd round pick or some Russian.
Those complaining about Grabner should point to their posts made at the time of the trade about how they saw Grabner’s game not fitting stylistically or that he wouldn’t provide any offense and his penalty killing wouldn’t make a difference.
Except it does.
Grabner has a been a terrible disappointment in terms of putting up points, but there's no denying he has been fantastic at killing penalties. As advertised, he's an elite penalty killer.

Nothing on the Nico spear? Whether he got injured or not that was a bit vicious. Deserves at least one game.
Looks even worse from this angle
On a more serious note, hope he's ok
Nico was definitely pissed when that happened

Rule 635 | SpearingWould be harsh to suspend someone for that one in the playoffs IMO. Should - however - be a minor.
ehh, I love Hall but that's not entirely true. He had a few defensive breakdowns last night that led to Tampa scoring chances.From The Athletic article "Dissecting Devils-Lightning Game 3: Taylor Hall does the heavy lifting in victory":
"Hall doesn't have the benefit of playing close to 100 percent of the available minutes like a basketball player, or the segmented, broken-down one-on-ones in baseball.
But every time Hall hopped over the boards in Game 3 it seemed like the Devils were playing in the Lightning's end and generating scoring chances. When he was on the bench, not so much.
(...) There are so many times Hall leaks out and I kind of wonder if he's cherrypicking or flying the zone too early, leaving his team shorthanded. But every time I further inspect, it's always a case of a measured, strategic chance being taken.
(...) Hall was a marvel to watch on Monday night. If it seemed like the puck was always on his stick, it's kind of because it was."
Dissecting Devils-Lightning Game 3: Taylor Hall does the... (Paywall)
Hedman's a star, he wont be suspended.
Were it XYZ average dman who did that, the NHL would toss him for a game.
truth. NHLs stat page has a breakdown for shot attempts yesterday. hall was on for 10 shots for and 12 shots against.ehh, I love Hall but that's not entirely true. He had a few defensive breakdowns last night that led to Tampa scoring chances.
I mean, I didn't expect him to receive a suspension, but to admit to reviewing it and basically flip it off.... **** the league officeAnd there you have it, hot off the presses.
