  1. Offense? where?
  2. So much for the "attacking" style of offense we heard about during the summer. Don't even get me started on the powerplay....dreadful!
  3. How about fixing the powerplay...going from #1 to #30 is not due exclusively to the D, but rather serious coaching issues.
  4. Holzinger at least had a little speed.
  5. Sam will never have an "edge" to his game...he is highly contact-averse and will not be the type of player who will initiate contact on the forecheck. Add to that his lack of speed and there is no chance he can be anything close to Kane's style of play. Decent hands yes...somewhat effective camped in front also.....but a minimally effective player in today's game. Trade him while you can get something for him.
  6. Seems to me he is right more often than wrong. Sometimes the truth hurts.
  7. There's a reason nobody is actually wearing the "C" on their shoulder....there is nobody on the roster who has the qualities to lead and hold his teammates accountable.
  8. I miss the power play from the previous coaching regime. That was one thing they got right! I don't think this coaching staff has a clue on special teams.
  9. At some point Okposo's contract will be problematic.
  10. I think you're correct. Vesey checked him into the boards around 4:48 left in the 1st. Not a cheap shot, didn't look that bad really. Bogo's back was to the camera, so don't know if his stick got into his own mid section or not.
  11. I would rather they bring back the cool Black/Red/Silver ones. They have not achieved squat since bringing back the Blue & Gold
  12. Kane was a little snake-bitten last season but IMHO is much more noticeable on the ice and difficult to play against than Okposo. I would rather see him stay than being sent away under-valued in a trade.
  13. They got their top 4 D-man, now onto getting Lucic (reunion with the GM).
  14. Agree....something I like in the highlights is that he uses a WRIST shot. I think too many NHL forwards depend on a slapper which end up being off target or deflected by the opposing defense....in other words missed SOG's and scoring opportunities.
  15. IMHO - from an offensive standpoint, John Van Boxmeer had the best shot from the point
  16. My guess is that if this were a republican president, with any of these "minor" scandals you would be calling for his head.
  17. Nice of Pomminpuff to wave his stick at the guy as he flew by....waste of a captain.
  18. He's accomplished more this game than anybody on the first line. At least they notice him when he's on the ice.
  19. Hard work, talent, compassion......maybe we need to have the guys from Cellino & Barnes suit up.
  20. Sabre Dance??? Please NOOOOOO! It's old, outdated, uninspiring and creates about as much excitement as watching the Bill's offense. Those wanting Sabre Dance are too attached to the name vs. how dull & boring the song actually is.
  21. Ugh....Sabredance....yawn! Just because it has a name recognition factor does not mean it excites people....fine during intermissions or commercial breaks, but not when you're trying to set a tone and get players and fans adrenaline going. Rock & Roll works best here.
  22. Something Rock & Roll played LOUD! AC/DC: You shook me all night long!
  23. Max is the other guy who usually shows up....unfortunately not a possibility tonight. One minute to go...thank goodness this period is about up.
