Oooh man...... big game big DARK game....

Benching defense...... holy moly. Can we afford to do that?

gotta figure that out.

Should be fun to watch.

Hoping we show a bit more gumption.

The Habs are starting their backup. Maybe the Soilers will have a faint chance tonight.

Top pairing:

Nurse - Koekkoek

From December:

"In Edmonton, he'll (Koekkoek) provide some depth on the blueline and will likely serve as a reserve most of the time. However, he should be the first man in whenever there is an injury."

Is this going to be a massacre?

Not to mention the 2nd pairing, 3rd pairing, 3rd line, 4th line, or the goalies....

I agree with very thing you have said. Are they rushing Bear? It seems he’s not ready. In that 5 game qualifying series against the Hawks, he lost a lot of puck battles and did not look good at all...

Overpassing and not willing to shoot won’t get you many goals.....

That's just too funny Bessie, you have such a way of putting the best happy face on it. Truly I love it.

Bear got a BIG $$$ contract and it's gone to his head!! IMO...Sitting him out will definitely give him a good re-start....He seems to be that kind of person

Team has to be cursed. I have no idea how this group of players could be so bad otherwise. It’s insane that year after year, it’s the same issues. Only explanation at this point...

Well that didn't take long.... how many games is it? Give them a chance to warm up. McJesus can still save them, this is the year!

This team is like my 92’ Mazda truck

Ya gotta give her time to warm up.

But when she’s good n ready.... she’ll go go go!

I’m liking Laggeson so far.... keep it simple D

Show sum grit.

Out third line is getting better...they needed to remember they gotta skate like their butts r on acid-fire ( not just normal fire... more urgency)


It’s comin boys.... you jus watch!
