It's results like this that make me wonder what people are on about when they lecture me about Bo's supposed leadership. This team has played 11 games, this team has had one full 60 minute effort against the Penguins. Like Ian MacIntyre said on the post game, some teams wouldn't blow 5 two goal leads ALL YEAR, we've have done it in 5 out of 11 games. Do you think Sidney Crosby would let his team do that?
If we are signing Bo, sign him expecting a winger who is good in the faceoff dot. He can not puck distribute, that's why JT Miller is here. I'm so sick of this 'we signed the wrong person this summer' argument. He's got 7g 5a in 12 games, he's a ppg, but apparently according to Rick Dhaliwal we need to find someone to take his contract? You would think he was donut on the season, not a point per game!
As for this game, what's to say? A $10 bet on the Canucks after the first period would have paid $10.03. We know it's a sucker's bet.
Demko is fighting the puck hard, I don't know if enough has been said about this, but he looks like he has little confidence. He needs to be our best PK'er, but we've been getting caved in short-handed all season.
