Strome isn't going to look great in scrambly, sloppy friendlies with a whole new team. Thats probably not going to suit Dvorak as much, either. The Crouses and Fischers of the world? It should be fine.

Looked like the LA kids wanted it more.

Hopefully Chychrun plays tomorrow and that makes a difference. Wonder if he's nursing a minor injury or something and that's why he's not playing though.

Hopefully he hasn't signed in Russia. That name is awfully...Slavic sounding. That or maybe Welsch. He hasn't signed in Whales has he?

Dvo has looked really good, though. Best for either team. Strome has had moments, but I agree. This sloppy kind of game isn't his style and certainly isn't what NHL hockey will be like.

You can tell why we moved up to get Chychrun and why the DeAngelo acquisition was necessary. On one play the D had nobody on him and everyone skating up ice and he fired the puck behind the net off the glass. Mike Spilleresque.

The situation is so bad new people are signing up to point out how bad it is:

Hey our d-men can pass. Pass it right to the other other players stick.

Welcome :P

Perlini played like he didnt want to get hurt again
Perlini was a giveaway machine...wonder if Strome struggled from having him on his wing. Perlini may have been the worst forward on the ice.

The key other guys: Dvo, Fischer, MacInnis, Crouse and even Bunting....provide reason for optimism.

Lol took me a sec to process the post. No I didn't sign up for that reason (although it would be a good reason too) I'm just shy for no reason, I had to come out of my comfort zone to point the d-men problem out though.

I say for the next one move Bunting to Strome's wing.

Bunting/Strome/Garland
Crouse/Dvorak/Fischer
Perlini/MacInnis/whoever
scrub/scrub/scrub

maybe have the D understand which jerseys the boys are wearing before they're allowed out on the ice.

I'd rather take Garland off Strome's wing. I like him less every time I see him. Holds the puck way too long and puts little to no effort in defending. He has a lot of work to do.

Crouse and Mac in front of the net on the PP units too.

I really hope some of the people I sat around tonight are not affiliated with this site. My god you hear some of the dumbest **** at a hockey game. Half of them had no idea what they were watching.

Anyway, not much stood out to me. We were faster and far more physical tonight than we have been in years past, at rookie games.

Worst part was them busting out the "hey goalie you suck". :facepalm:

It's terrible, man. I heard a guy yelling the most ignorant stuff at the refs. Almost every time there was no call to be made, incredible. Of course his cronies chugging Budweiser and smelling like the Marlboro man were laughing like they were at a comedy show.

The worst. Zero manners. Saw a lady that had to have been tippin the scale at 3 bills wearing a crop top with blue hair with her boyfriend in tow that looked like he crawled out from under a garbage dump.

Well, if we want to grow the popularity, we need to welcome the ignorant and slowly teach them as they come back for more and more games.

I've got no problem for people going to games, I encourage it, but at least have some manners and where with all about you in a public setting.

It's not the ignorant, its just that the people I've seen are just plain weird, its just kinda strange.

I guess anyone who has stuck with this team is bound to have some sort of issues though... :P
