I say bring the goons back

At least one.  How about that guy who was the MVP of the all star game.  Great Scott!

I'm completely serious when I say I agree with you.

The sentiment, or something similar, seems to be very strong today. Usually, people are like "there's no place in the game for that anymore" or "why?" Nice to see, but the people who promote softness will prevail here on the board within 24 hours.

There's probably a bit of "fool me once" going on, seeing as how Tampa took out a second player, now.

***** it. Burn it to the ground. 

[darksabre]

It's incredible that these people get to make so much money. I'll let Cernak kick my butt for a couple grand, gimme a jersey.

TB made this team its b!tch.  Not good atoll as Rob Ray would say.  

As much as I hate to create constant change, a shakeup is needed.  I’ve been a jbott sympathizer but I’m done.  This team is not good.  They are soft.  I’m concerned with the development of key young players.  We need someone like Lou to take control of building this team.  We’ve been hoping to hire an inexperienced savant but that has not worked.  Another season going down the drain after a promising start.

Let's say its yet again another tank....so what will we do?  Draft another group of soft fringe players who lack fire, grit and heart.  Wash, rinse and repeat.  

 

Quinton Byfield.

Which core player ask to be traded first?

For the first time ever, I’m losing interest to the point where it’s too painful to watch.  And I rode out the tank years.  This whole staff and fo has to go.  This thing is rotten to the core.  

I agree. For all intent and purposes it looks like they’ve tuned out the coaches. How can they be this bad.? How can they not have any toughness ? And I’m talking team toughness. Absolutely no grit.

Yep.

I was bad enough that it was Cernak that took a shot at Jack over in Europe and no-one reacted. Now he goes after our other tankfruit and nothing?!?!

Fire Botterill tomorrow.

Harrington, if he's on the trip, is all teed up for Hutton. This could be good, especially after the suspicious skate to the bench.

Harrington was, is. and will always be the Matt Ellis of sports journalism. It’s amazing people still read his drivel.

[Thorner]

@dudacek is the hero we don't deserve, but that the board needs right now.

Come make me feel better and wipe away these tears of frustration. 

[#freejame]

What do the #fancystats say about being a bunch of pussies?

It's not as egregious as Miller Lucic, but I can't see Maroon looking the other way if we elbowed Kuch.

I watched him in St Louis last year.  I can guarantee you Maroon would be there for any teammate

They don't have players with that in their blood.

Hutton was staring at the ice at a moment where he should have been expecting to be pulled. They had to shout his name a few times to get his attention. Honestly, a strong move from Botterill right now would be to send Hutton away, and not in a painfully slow manner.

Hammburglar time? 

What else could they do? The pickins are slim. 

 

 

[Claude Balls]

Not sure when I'll watch another game. Maybe the fans should boo when the team comes out on the ice, as Lehner likes to say. 

I've lost whatever little faith in Botterill I had. ***** this shipwreck.

[Scottysabres]

Yea, I'm pretty mich done with no responses to the constant liberties being taken on ice.

Someone, anyone needs to step in and intervene to fix this *****.

We're not pussies. As Betty White once noted those can take a pounding. We're balls, one hit and we're down and out.

He is the least of their problems

[darksabre]

I don't know how anyone let's the Dahlin elbow go in a blowout. What an embarrassment. I've seen beer league players give a bigger ***** about their teammates. 

[SwampD]

PA, please take note that none of our complaints right now are about the officials.

Quinton Byfield. 

Is he a thrower of hands?, or at least his body?

[Gatorman0519]

I just a decade our culture has changed so much it’s even made hockey soft.  This is a mans sport.  They need fighting back for reasons like this game.    Imagine Kevin MaGuire Back in the day or Rob Ray in the line up when Dahlin got blindsided viciously like that.

We will have heard it all before (not a knock on dudacek)). I think tonight two game-changers are the response to Dahlin and Hutton's behavior. It's bad. Really bad.

This team is individuals. Maybe a couple give a ***** but we're not a team.
