[Lou is God]

Bastian was very good tonight.

Holtz will be a welcome addition next season

I think he's more than a year away. Foote's the guy you hope will be ready by next season.

and 25 years later that same coach would be let go for saying that to a player depending on the age of the player

The coach was hilarious. He was a tobacco-spittin' backwoods kind of guy who coached the scrub team. I think he was the woodshop teacher. I wrote a paper on UFO's and interviewed him because he saw one.

1. Defense looks very improved with Murray, Smith, Kulikov. We didn’t get pushed around nor look outclassed.
2. Our young legs are going to give other teams fits.
3. Scrappy team - just one game but I think this may be the personality. I love that.
4. Hughes looks so much more like he belongs - just physically holding his own, going into the corners, with Marchand, McAvoy, standing up to the other guys one on one. We may indeed have the franchise player we thought.
5. Blackwood.

PGT up with the telecast off

I thought he was the best player on the ice for either team.

I concur. I have zero negatives about Blackwood's game tonight. He was terrific.

You wouldn't have known he hasn't played in so long.
