Zacha has been hot lately. Let's play him 14 minutes.

I've defended Hynes for a while, but his personnel decisions this year have been everywhere from head scratching to downright idiotic.

team is 0-4-3 when tied with 10 minutes to go in the third.

part of me thinks its going to even out over time. a big part of me thinks the coaching staff is incompetent.

So long as Hynes continues to treat Bratt like he's still on a Camp Invite, this is what's going to happen.

When it's crunch time, you need your BEST PLAYERS out there and like it or not, Bratt is one of the BEST PLAYERS.

We haven't had the puck on our stick much at all in these OT's, it's been tough to get it back too when we cough it up. I'm ok losing possession after a decent shot or scoring chance but our guys trying to go through the other team 1 vs 2 all the time and coughing it up has been killing us.

I thought he'd do that the last time we played Tampa and just have him return against the Lightning, but he didn't do it then. Honestly it almost doesn't matter at this point except Keith's more likely to beat Florida, but they'll probably get walked by the Lightning again no matter the goalie.
That's another reason to throw Cory to them. I don't trust him against Florida (the more winnable team) and Luongo.

They have been getting points lately, which is better then 2 weeks ago. Baby steps in the right direction. I think theyll get better....
Maybe my streak of unpopular opinions will pan out.
1. Said kk would be good, not a popular opinion yrs ago, turned out to be correct for now.
2. Said mojo would improve, and score wed.. was off by 1 day on the goal but he got 2 pts wed, and has been better the last week, and I expect it to continue.
3. Devs will improve and make playoffs. (Finish no higher then 5th)

Final prediction.... Cory will get a string of 3 wins in a row and 1 shutout this season

We just lost to a team at home that had Stephen Gionta in the lineup today and has Lou Lamoriello as their GM..... In 2018.

The more we knock him the more his teams keep winning. It's just like the old days in a sick way...they lose their stars to FA and just keep on trucking.

Would have rather lost in regulation

Extra point that just lays a thin veil over the problems

The only reason I say I'd rather have the point (besides rather having the point) is maybe it'll help MoJo find some mo-mentum.
