Doohickie

Bring it!

You've regressed to static giraffe, Tage. I hope you understand.

yay.

Embarrassing.

Blow it all up

Guys....

Not really, just something I could throw together quick.

It was maddening to watch the defense in their own zone, with full control of the puck and a clear lane to pass or at least clear the zone, but instead they pass it laterally and the Blue Jackets just take the puck away. This is like pee wee level stuff that they're screwing up. Everyone on D all the way up to Dahlin is doing this tonight.

Wow, that was awful.

le sigh

and again...

It was Lackawanna made Polish sausage and pierogies for dinner, by the way.

My son and daughter-in-law showed up for dinner so I'm just getting to the game. To catch up.... and

You're talking about acquiring a goalie; I'm talking about moving on from one.

Well then he's on the perfect line right now. 10-12 minutes for a few games until he gets his legs back.

most important player =/= captain. I don't get captain vibes from Dahlin. I don't think he wants it, I don't think the team would respond well to it. I think he sets a good example to follow but I feel that somehow making him captain would ruin that. I will also acknowledge that the vibes I'm talking about may simply be cultural differences. Cozens or Tuch act like captains to me, but maybe Dahlin would be better. I think part of being a captain is being a motivator and I think Tuch and Cozens exude that more than Dahlin. Overt motivation might be different from motivation by example and maybe a more understated style from Dahlin might still be effective.

To be honest I'd rather see Krebs on that 3rd line; I think he's more likely to be able to make that a scoring line than Jost. (Prove me wrong, Jost.)

...and how are these two things connected? Never mind. No need to explain.

I..... I don't know what this is supposed to mean. The bolded conditions guarantee us a loss.

We'll see. It's a bit of a gambit: Maybe Tage and Tuch won't look great coming off their injuries right away but as long as they don't suffer a setback, "rehabbing" in the NHL may get them back up to speed quicker, and possibly the same with Quinn. Are they rushing Quinn back? I've seen reports on Sabrespace that it's a 4-6 month recovery and he's right at 6 months now. Also, is the recovery time any shorter because Quinn is so young? I dunno, maybe.

I'm sure Brawndo will let us know.
