2 -0 looking like another loss is on the way. Darcy needs at least a trade of some sort doesnt matter who anyone but Myers and probably Miller.

You haven't heard? Darcy isn't so worried about this year. His picks are continuing to develop nicely.

I will see Darcy wed night in Raleigh I think I will point blank ask him why the hell he isnt doing anything to get this team better

I'm sure he'll politely point at your ticket stub and say, "That's why."

EDIT: ...then head off to his luxury box and free pretzels.

So I thought the BJs were getting the penalty there at the end but with them chatting with Roy I'm not so sure.

 

They did. Called interference -- looked like a wicked elbow.

Though the Pittsburgh and Ottawa losses were tough to take, last night and tonight are the real signs that something needs to change. When you lose to top-tier teams, it just means you aren't at that level yet...but when you lose to cellar-dwellers...yeesh.

 

Many are calling for a trade...and while I agree, I wonder if Darcy's comments in the paper the other day weren't a little bit of posturing. Despite a great and unexpected start to the season, no one except Miller and Myers has really been memorable. It makes you wonder if Darcy's comments aren't a blustering attempt to build up the stature of his own personnel...because none of the other GMs are interested in our players at the moment.

 

People throw out trades like Lecavalier, Kovalchuk, etc...but honestly, if you were a GM of one of those teams, would you want to trade for Pomminstein, Roy, Hecht, etc. with their inconsistency and salary? Even if someone like Gerbe or a draft pick is included?

Since when can a linesman call a penalty?

interpretation of any incident that may have taken place during the

game.

The Linesman may stop play and report what he witnessed to the

Referees when:

(ii) Articles are thrown on the ice from the players’

bench or penalty bench

Rule 75

(iii) When team personnel interfere with a game

official

Rule 40

(iv) When a player who has lost or broken his stick

receives one illegally

Rule 10

The Linesman must report upon completion of play, any

circumstances pertaining to:

(i) Major penalties

(ii) Match penalties

(iii) Misconduct penalties

(iv) Game Misconduct penalties

(v) Abuse of Officials

(vi) Physical Abuse of Officials

(vii) Unsportsmanlike Conduct

(viii) Double-minor penalty when it is apparent that an

injury has resulted from a high-stick that has

gone undetected by the Referees

Rule 20

Rule 21

Rule 22

Rule 23

Rule 40

Rule 41

Rule 75

Rule 60

Should a Linesman witness a foul (above) committed by an

attacking player (undetected by the Referees) prior to the attacking

team scoring a goal, the Linesman shall report what he witnessed to

the Referees, the goal shall be disallowed and the appropriate penalty

assessed.

Welcome friend. Yeah, the handling of the goalies is an absolute mystery.

 

Thanks for the welcome, PA.

 

One can only hope that Lalime plays one of the next three games to give Miller a little more rest before the Olympics. If it were me, hell, I'd play Miller against Boston and then Lalime against Carolina AND San Jose. But though I like Lindy's decisions most of the time, this is where I constantly shrug my shoulders and ask where he's coming from.

That's Darcy's dilemma in a nutshell. She doesn't have anything to offer.
