Dear Coach.  In all your years involved with ice hockey perhaps you haven't noticed that the key to effective power play is rapid puck movement.  You have an advantage and someone is always going to be open to shoot.  Get the puck to that individual and have him fire away.  You won't give him that optimal opportunity unless you move the puck quickly and locate that guy.  Try it; you might like it.   

It was why ROR was good on the PP up at the top of the circles with those quick give-and-go and flip the side of attack passes. Mitts, too, for a few games in the past few weeks while he was on PP1.

Crazy thought, but maybe a PP without Skinner will force a new strategy....which may also still fail miserably, but at least the coaching staff has to make an adjustment.

I’m more concerned about 5 on 5.   We don’t have a first line without Skinner.   Playing Sam with Jack ready hurts the 2nd line.  

5 on 5 is most effected.

I want the Sabres to answer, accident or not, it's freaking hockey, they just broke your stars ankle, it's time to get even, I just watched Jack do another fly by and it's nauseating 

They're going to say they're still in the hunt and need wins.  They have no time to head hunt.

Pomminstein is keeping up with Eichel today.

Did they show the replay in the arena? It was no accident.

Thank you, I'm glad I have somebody here to remind me of the proper way to follow my sports team.

Anytime.  No. problem.  

The game is not over, neither is the best season we have had in 10 years.  Enjoy.

Didn't look dirty to me. Unfortunately in hockey injuries happen. Head hunting becomes reciprocal.

I haven't watched more than the replays they showed on the TV feed.  It didn't seem to me intentional.

He placed his stick in the perfect spot and applied force. What kind of hockey play is that?

The trip may have been no accident but the intent did not look viscous.  Hard to know what 62 was thinking.

Gotta keep the contex of what a pest Skinner is and the enemies he's made.

Deliberately put stick in there, then a twist of the blade.  But still,  62 did not look like he was doing something viscous.
