  1. Reimer had a strong period. Like him as back up.
  2. We are just awful clearing the puck out of our zone.
  3. I’ll be damned. The worm is turning.
  4. Linesmen taking forever to find a way to give it to the Isles.
  5. Nice to see Tuch and Malenstyn each get in a good check early.
  6. My point was we don’t have the roster to compete for a Cup even if we get a playoff spot. Not a chance in hell unless Adams brings in missing pieces. Otherwise, we will continue after 13 seasons to compete for a playoff slot instead of compete for a Cup.
  7. Watching the losses to the Wild and Canucks at home after posting a 3 game win streak on the West Coast trip, think Adams needs to bring in a top Center and a forward, both under 30 with SC experience and term. Big ask, I understand, especially given likely NTC issues. Pegula would have to open his wallet. Ideally a couple hungry guys who were close to getting a Cup and who see the opportunity here for the next several seasons with the right pieces. He has several of his own pieces he can package to create interest. We simply don’t have the roster to compete with top teams should we get a playoff spot.
  8. Couldn’t agree more. The league is onto his slapper act. Thompson needs to get to the slot to unleash his shot at the top of the circles or take it in close with deft moves to deke the goalie with a backhand or tap in. He needs to use his size, reach and stick more creatively.
  9. Just listened to Ruff’s postgame comments. Our PP was 0-5. It was more than a little bit off, Lindy. Whoever is coaching and designing our PP is failing and needs to be replaced as the PP Coach. Ruff was asked about players getting to the paint and he implied it rotates and when it’s your turn you have to be there. You can’t miss your turn, he said. Ruff’s scheme stinks, imo. Guys can’t keep track of who’s turn it is apparently, so too often no one goes. No urgency in our game. No physicality in our game. Too much wondering about everything, and not enough Wonder and Awe about anything.
  10. Damn Got outplayed in OT. Too friggin “patient.” Canucks, like the Wild, wanted it more than we did, in our own building, no less. Instead of sending our fans home with a win, we send them home with a loss. There is no redemption in losing. Ruff owns this loss. He didn’t get them motivated to play to win until the 3rd period. Then reverts to his “patient” game in OT. We didn’t even touch the puck until OT was half over. Didnt aggressively go after the puck. Stood around in reactive mode.
  11. Good 3rd period comeback. We’ll take the point. Now get the other one. Let’s go!
  12. Great time for a PP goal. Get off the snide.
  13. Ha. Of course. Cozens. Boom. God has a great sense of humor.
  14. Look at Dahlin make a back pass inside the slot instead of taking the point blank shot from 15 feet. Unbelievable. Canucks go on to score.
  15. If this is the kind of “patient game” Ruff wants them to play, he needs Adams to replace 7-8 players.
