Wow that is quite a day!! Fun and painful all in one!

Hopefully there is some type of Hieracrchy. Gm is responsible for "x". Head coach is responsible for "y". Assitant Coaches "z". Captain is responsible for "C". Creating an organizational structure brings accountability. We are having issues with the locker room. The team isn't doing well on the powerplay. Why do we start off slow.

Rocky Thompson, Bob Probert, Josh Gorges, Niklas Kronwall, Patrick Sharp, Shwan thorton...

Well at least we know who the next headcoach will be in a couple of years.

I hope his play is half as good as this interview. Agree, he seems like a special person, night and day difference from Diggs.

I heard on the radio, draft pics are like lottery tickets. I tend to agree, look at the success rate of #1 drafted QB's.

The Dallas / Colorado game seemed different than most of the other playoff games. Appeared to have more open ice, less physicality, or was I drinking too much?

Similar fate as head coach's which lead to their firing. From a Newark Newspaper "This wouldn’t even be a thought if the team did not spiral under his direction. The Devils, just a season removed from what looked like a meteoric rise, failed to win more than three games in a row this year and surrendered the first goal in a game 45 times in 61 games under Ruff." Interesting comparison. Both teams battled with injuries.

The outfits these draft picks wear? or I am just getting old?

Just happen to have this on hand,

FYI - average age of the roster Lindy had with the 112 point Devils was 25.2. Three players over 30 - only one with any type of contribution Tatar with 20 goals. Defensmen

I am hoping his calm and gentle demeanor shown in the press conference will help inspire and motivate a team needing encouragement, heart, and toughness. The message he sends in practice shows up on the ice during live game competition. Will they be tough to play against, relentless forecheck, trap/shut down defense, physical around the net, or fast pace north and south skill team? I hope he blends the personalities and skills of each player into a unique and exciting team to watch. Like putting a puzzle together, and having a team play 60 minutes - end to end. Regardless if they are young. I have my fingers crossed and hope that is what Lindy brings.

Yawn, how inspiring! His excitement is off the charts. Sounds like a Grandpa. Was looking for more.

defense coach would assume some responsibility for PK

Penalty Kill for Blues ranked 20th and was a -11 in gf vs ga. fyi

New uniforms for the Adams / Ruff Era:

The key (from the article) to all this, finding the correct people or person. Bills have Josh, Beane and Sean. Sabers have what? Young prospects including a goalie.? Sabers appear to be put together from the boys club.

You could always do this:

I always liked Scott Stevens as a player. Would be a pipe dream.

I hope so too. One reference that gives us fans a glimmer is Ruff took a rebuilding New Jersey Devils team to a 112-point season in 2022-2023.

I can go both ways.

Buffalonill called it!
