I like Nasreddine. Maybe he’s not fit to be the coach, whatever, but he’s very insightful when he speaks and my impression of him is that he’s really trying to make the most of the opportunity and not just be a placeholder. I respect that. If the team manages to finish with a respectable record, I’d like to see them keep him in some capacity.

There was the one player that Lou got rid of after he allegedly showed up to practice one morning really drunk.
Deron Quint.
It took me a minute to think of his name. He was a nobody though and his career ended with him being a nobody.

I don't think he was as bad as an assistant and most thought he was.
Our PK was also usually very good since he's been here and I'm pretty sure he coached the PK every year he's been here and until his promotion.
Oddly enough, our PK started out terribly this year and drastically improved fairly recently, which seemed to almost coincide with his promotion to head coach, when I think Peter Horachek took over as the PK guy.

Goal review:
1st period
- Coleman gets a good feed from Gusev at 15:10 and Andersen saves it
- Zajac faceoff, Severson shoots it into shin pads, which leads to turnover, retreat and subsequent icing
- face off win, pass back to Rasmus Sundin, shot from the blue line, tipped by Tavares from middle slot
- Butcher screws up a puck headed towards the Devils zone then loses a board battle with Spezza
- Gauthier is circling from the corner back to the middle of the ice when the puck squirts out to him
- He gathers and beats Domingue with a wrister
- Power play, Sundin releases another shot from the blue line and Hyman deflects it
- failures to clear but a hell of a tip down from Zach
2nd period
- domingue tries to pass it up the board...video froze, but I think everyone flew the zone expecting an exit
- Simons not handlin a bound, tip from Nylander
- poor d coverage from Subban and Greene
- Power play, marner to matthews planned tip
- Lou with a pretty open short side
3rd period
- absolutely disappearing act from defense
- Hischier maybe gassed?
- 2 men go one man, mismatched coverage and easy one-timer
- Vats with a shit pass leads to a turnover and easy Matthews ENG

I think Butcher is the one who should be gone. He skates like me and doesn't have enough positive impact.

Does Bingo's year end before ours? I ask because I'd wait until they were done. Don't want them losing out on major development minutes down in Bingo.

I prefer him over a clearly over the hill Greene and Mueller who is complete trash.
They can’t toss all three LD. Who do we ice next year?

I really don’t want to call kids up unless they are going to get sizable roles. They are getting big roles down there and are finally starting to gel.

Bingo's season is over. The big team's season is over. I have no problem with Joey Anderson coming up here and playing on the 3rd line for a stretch.
Throw the kid out there and see what can do. Give him another taste. Then bring the next guy in.

Yeah I think we were too hard on Nas. We definitely were too hard on Ward.
Hynes looks like the king dumbass

We'll agree to disagree. I'd rather have Greene than Butcher.
It’s refreshing to see that the loss tonight was just a loss and not symptomatic of a systemically sick team. They pushed back and didn’t completely fold. Yes it was mostly Coleman’s line but Nico showed some hustle and a few others as well. As long as they give a good effort they will head in the right direction.

The AHL regular season usually finishes a week or so after the NHL regular season

Imagine you could weld Wood's heart to Zacha's skating and skill. It looks like Zacha needs ANOTHER code-red.
I feel bad for him. Has he considered a sports psych?

Okay, then leave them down there unless top 9 minutes open. The only spot there that could open is Simmonds. Then you make the decision to bring up Bastian, Anderson or Mikey McLeod.

He is such a frustrating player. Not sure who is more frustrating, him or Severson.

He really isn’t that good and is made of glass. He will not be worth his next contract, that’s a virtual certainty.

I'll almost guarantee he gets dealt at the deadline. We'll get a 1st for him.

Even more so when you see Subban producing now and that stupid 23-game scoreless streak mostly under Hynes.
