Pimlach

I heard Imlach is tired of Mahovlich, give him a call.

Nice PK by McLeod who is somehow the 4C in minutes

Who says Adam's is even in trouble? Just us. Who will Terry get? Another disaster? We really need Adams to succeed so Terry does less.

Worst excuse for a power play right now. Terrible.

Ray said to “stick to the game plan that they haven’t been able to get to yet”.

Palmeiri retaliated but there is no call. It was only Benson, he probably deserved it.

Figures. We get the penalty. lackluster effort by Power on the PK.

If Benson does that he gets a roughing penalty.

Was Ray told to pump up Quinn’s Rep?

I’m confused. Why are these linesmen looking at it. What about Toronto?

Warm up the PK

Ugh. Martin of all people.

Competing for the Cup as a serious threat is a big step up from just making the playoffs. I will be happy if they grab the WC rung and make the playoffs. If they exit in round 1 it’s ok, we see how to shape the team from there forward We need to be realistic, make the playoffs - step 1

Good evening Teammates, Another night of Hockey in Sabreland. Lots to learn about them tonight. MUSCLE WEIGHT

Way to represent tonight Rico and I hope you can bring us a W. Quinn, JJP, especially Cozens, and even Benson ... I am not leaving any of them out. They are top 6 on this team, Adams went with them in this pivotal season so they need to show up. Reimer is a big key also but it would be nice if we had an offensive explosion tonight and a comfortable win. Me and my Woodford Reserve will be watching.

We have the roster to compete with the middle band of teams that fight for the last few playoff slots. Until we get there and see growth in the Core from it, I don't think we will see hungry guys that are hoping to get a Cup willing to come here if they have options. Agree we need help but not the GM will take any risky moves. McLeod for Savoie surprised me.

He has speed for sure. He forechecks when his line gains the offensive zone, and he hits and has grit. He has shown very little ability to finish so far. He has had enough looks for about 3-4 goals but he has just 1. I suppose that is why he is on his 5th team in 5 seasons? He is a 4th line journeyman type of player.

You would be a great lines man. (see what I did?)

I use MW for must win. The context of my response was to another poster saying this feels like a must win. So i just used MW. I did not know what you meant by "initialisms" either so I looked it up. We called all of that stuff acronyms at one time, but in todays world, were excessive and precise labelling is common, I now understand there is a difference between an acronym and an initialism. Huh.

He wanted to leave before the injury. The Krueger hiring and firing, and another rebuild, were the final straws for him. The injury was the vehicle to make it happen.

The Avs have a -7 goal Diff. They have had big problems in the net and on the defensive side of their game. A negative +/- is not unique to Mitts.

Kozak is a guy that Mike Peca really liked for some reason. He projects as a bottom 6, probably 4th line, but if he can bring some scoring to the 4th line and still hit and play fast that could help. Currently we get ZERO secondary scoring from the 4th line.

Which is why I voted yes, they are in it and its there for the taking. The Isles game will tell us a lot. They have to pull together, 1. heavy game opponent on the road 2. 2nd night of B2B 3. Reimer in goal. A strong team would get carried by its best players. Calling on Thompson and Dahlin to lead them to a W.

We lost two in a row at home. We need 2 points to keep pace. We need to keep the Isles behind us and catch the Broons. This is an MW. Time to beat a "heavy team playing a heavy game". Do it on B2B with the backup in net.
