Makar said that the fall was his fault in the postgame interview.

I think they retain one of Jost or Girgs.
-
But by then, are Olofsson, Okposo & Girgs off the team? Are those the spots that the new guys take? It's probably gonna take 4 guys moving up to bump him off the team altogether.

Something you don't see every day: A shorthanded goal with 12 seconds left in a tie game.

It happened in the UK though; they're probably not as desensitized to the violence of hockey.

And/or: He'd work again, but only as a GM, and no team in their right mind would hire him as a GM. I think he and JBot could both work as an Asst. GM on the contracts side of things in the NHL; they both seemed to know that aspect pretty well. -

Not sure it would fit in with NHL guidelines, but I personally would not be averse to having the blue & gold away whites and black and red home goatheads on a permanent basis. As an old dude I have a fondness for the classic blue and gold but I think the black jerseys with red trim do make them look more intimidating. -

They got rid of Bogo and Kane. -

The thing is... depending on how he is with his personal finances he may never have to work again. -
It's also a question of roster spots. What do you do with Jost or Olofsson if you're carrying Benson and Savoie? Or do you waive one of the goalies? They're basically juggling the roster based on injuries as it is but at some point the injury music (hopefully) stops playing and everyone has to find a chair. And you can't just play Benson and Savoie in the AHL. Savoie is only there because he is on a conditioning assignment. After a couple weeks in ROC he needs to either move up to the NHL or back to the WHL; he can't stay in the AHL beyond that. And unless Benson gets injured he can't to to the AHL at all.

Three of the six penalties against were not, in my opinion, penalties: The two on Greenway were cases of players going in opposite directions bumping skates and Greenway was heavier on his skates, and the one on Benson near the blue line was a phantom call; he barely touched the guy and again it was incidental anyway. -

Watching it again, I would say it was more characteristic of Dahlin than Bryson. -

I think he was an analyst- a pure numbers guy. I work in a technical field and have worked with people like that. Can generate numbers left and right but can't tell what conclusion they lead to. -

Correct. That was my point. Instead of following the leaders brought in, they hung out with the bad influences (Bogo, Kane). Kevyn appreciates character and its affect on a young cohort of players better than XGMTM or JBot did. They just didn't "get" locker room dynamics. -

They tried this when Eichel was here with Gionta (=Okie) and Gorges (=EJ), but... it wasn't the right time. The culture was so fractured then. -
I think Benson gets his 9 games, then possibly Savoie,... then next man up out of Rochester.
