Pilut's better with him. If there is a 50/50 puck on the endwall, there is nobody else I would want trying to get it (maybe Scandy). Dozens upon dozens of times a game, he gets it, slide it to his partner behind the net and they exit the zone (if the wingers don't wet themselves near the blue line.) Doesn't show up on any stat. It's not our defense that is the problem. It's not our defense that is the problem. Needed to say that twice cuz it's been true for years.

We're in this game because of him.

I just,… I mean I can't,… I,… just don't get it. Do fans of other teams get to watch their team score goals?

Are you ***** kidding me!?!? They can't even score with the goalie on the ice and a wide open net,… TWICE!

NICE!!!!

We don't clear the zone not because of our D. We don't clear the zone because our wingers are soft on the boards. Risto just saved a goal.

Who?

That happens all the time. There's no excuse for Olafsson there.

Proving my point.? See what happens when he passes? I actually remember that.

Not only is that funny, I bet it's prey accurate as well.

Each guy had someone. Olafsson was watching them score.

He tries, but he's usually met by three defenders and loses the puck. That should be two the uncovered guys. Where are they?

How do you mean? I've been converted on this issue. When he is away from the puck, he does look casual, but he is big enough and skilled enough to be in the right place while conserving energy. Watch McDavid. He does the same thing. They both kick it into gear when they get the puck. But my problem is when he has the puck, he doesn't use his line mates anymore (like he did at the beginning of the season.) I can't think of a meaningful pass not on the PP by him to a line mate in the last 10 games.

Goalie's gotta be your best PKer. Hutton ain't.

Apples to oranges. It's a different convention when it is one team's schedule and the list only has the opponent than when both teams are listed. The away team is always first, whether "@" or "vs." is used. Horse not dead yet.

The worst part is that I’m right handed,... and on really strong antibiotics,... I will say no more.

Sliced through about 80% of the tendon on my pinky on a piece of gear at work. It took 6 or 7 stitches to reattach that and another 7 or 8 to close it up. Luckily, it’s the one non bass playing finger I have. Still, no bass for a month.

This is going to be a track meet bag skate type game that we win in OT. Eichel and Dahlin with big games.

I'll say it. I like Mike Milbury when he isn't calling a Bruins game.

I’ve never loved eleven more.

Plays with lots of singing are called musicals. Jersey Boys is a musical.

Not a fan of Ronan. Style over substance.

It feels like Vesey just needs that first goal to get going. He's had some good chances.

I can't believe he is only 36.

They can skate with any team. It’s only the heavy teams they have trouble with. I like your predictions in the other thread, but I think they beat Carolina and could beat Tampa and Calgary if Scandy’s back.
