Mustache of God

Don Perry Tegula.

Here's a look at their first meeting together: "Yeah, so, everything you've done over the past 5 years....I probably would not have done any of that, because the results would look exactly like this."

"Now if you look at this slide of ticket sales, you can see how it appears to be plummeting as we go forward in time. However, if you flip the slide upside-down, sales are through the roof!"

What are the odds GMKA chokes on a ping-pong ball and we end up with a new GM by default?

Jacob Bryson is not a good defenseman.

I hope they go out there and lay a big sloppy ol' turdburger on the ice, a real paint-job, if you will. Philly wins 1-0 on a shot that goes off a Sabre and into the net.

It's better to see what Bryson will give you going into next year. If he has a few good games in Powers absence KA will be able to sleep well knowing he won't have to do anything in the off-season to address the D.

Ville Leino and it's not even close.

Take it with a grain of salt, but I went to the game over the weekend with someone who knows some of the coaching staff and we were talking about the Cozens trade. They said he's got a lot of talent, and his breakout year he was able to catch other teams off their guard. Once teams paid attention to him and started game planning around him his production died because he's "***** dumb" and has horrible hockey IQ. He was unable to adjust his game and that's why we've seen such a decline in his play. Other teams figured him out and he's a one trick pony work horse. As for the defensive coach being retained last year, which absolutely blew my mind, he as kept because Dahlin and Power both heavily advocated to keep him.

I'll be there, this'll be my first goathead game since the resurrection. my last game was at Colorado when they blew the 4 goal lead. Hoping for something different.

Do ticket prices on the secondary market plunge on the day of the game? I've got friends coming into town who are Lightning fans and they're going to the game. I'm planning on buying a ticket in their section but haven't pulled the trigger yet.

The team just crawled out of 16th place in the conference in his 5th year as GM. Even an anosmic pig can root up a truffle every once in awhile.

The simple fact that Kevyn Adams targeted Levi as a cornerstone piece tells me that he is not going to pan out in the NHL. Not because I don't think Levi is talented, but entirely because Adams has the Merde Touch.

Here's what Savoie's numbers look like this year for those who are curious as I was. Looks like he didn't do much with his 4 games of NHL action but he's playing well / as expected in the AHL.

It's kind of like a swiss army knife in which it's fun to look at and think about the different things it can do but the closer you examine it the less fun it is to take in as you realize it won't do anything right. The bolded has been the problem with this team since Adams took over 5 years ago. It's infuriating this is still the case and it's the main reason my head exploded when we preemptively signed Bryson to another contract.
