If you can make the argument that Dallas is a better team without Stankoven tonight than with, please make that argument. Being good to your players by being straightforward, ie Yes you're in, no maybe so, maybe not and we'll bring your parents to not watch you play is just dumb and bush league.
I have no issue that they want Duchene in the lineup. I have a serious issue that they think Dellandrea is a better choice once you've gone and made the callup. Either don't call Logan up or play him. Anything else is Mickey Mouse.
