  1. Ahhh, spiced rum. I really miss the overproof appleton from the old days. That stuff was really tasty! I've got some good tequilla left, maybe that will help swing our luck. And if not, I won't be able to tell.
  2. Unfortunately, it looks like Manny has been teaching the art of faceoff. He's going to be a good head coach one day.
  3. Ruined my score call, so we might as well go for the biggest come-back form behind of the year. This night will then be know as: "The night we broke the streak of not winning at the center of the universe"
  4. Green could have rotated more guys from the Taxi squad. Even Loui probably would have looked fresh at this point.
  5. I expect this game to be the final nail in the coffin. The coach will re-play the same tired guys back to back, while leaving rested bodies on the taxi squad. Tired out of sync hockey vs well oiled machine in the wrong timezone is a disaster. I will surprised if this isn't a really bad blowout.
  6. Yeah, there are several problems here. We need Petey, and Beagle back. We should have kept Tanev and Toffoli in the offseason and let Schmidt and Virtanen go. And now we just have a bunch of waiver wire plugs being evaluated instead of playing our own talent. This isn't even fun to watch. I don't really care the reasons for any of the moves... it's not fun to watch as a fan, so I'm out.
  7. Came to check the start... nothing but Afternoon games and back to back just not our thing.
  8. What a stinky effort and total collapse in execution. Got to rotate those guys out of the taxi squad to stay fresh. Even Loui might have helped at this point. Schmidt was a giveaway machine for the other team all night. I can't put my finger on it, but I think the style isn't working. They need to stake the puck in instead of dump and chase. They just don't have the gas to play that way right now. On the upside, I thought Motte, Horvat, Hoglander, Pearson and Miller looked good. Miller in particular looked more like himself with a little more jump after a few quiet games. Edit. Holtby was great again. I'd never fault a goalie that let's in 2 or less goals a game. It's all you can hope for.
  9. No amount of facepalms could describe that period. Not bringing it. Too many bad passes. Standing around while on the power play and they grab the puck rushing the other way. Error after error exiting the zone. Long shifts.
  10. I guess most of us just want to know if Lind is in the lineup. Would be weird to recall from taxi squad and not play him.
  11. No pre-game practice or lineup yet? I guess we will find out shortly.
  12. He totally did lol. Thanks for the winning vibes again. We are moving toward playoffs!
