Just totally sad. Depressing.

Purely on a hockey level, zero chance Botterill moves for a forward now. Gotta be full healthy for that, apparently.

Weak response from Ralph. At at bare minimum call the hit trash.

If botterill ***** says anything about d depth now that Dahlins hurt, well then I will become the conductor of the fire botterill train.

He was talking about keeping the D-depth before the injury took place so I doubt that changes. 

Zero response on ice. We'll see if GM JB has any response off of it.

GMTM would have used at least one hundred different versions of F Bombs to the off ice officials to describe his feelings about the no call

The NHL's response will tell me everything I need to know.

It's the NHL. There is a zero percent chance you will be satisfied with the outcome. You literally have to attempt murder on the ice to get any sort or real suspension.

Botterill told us this summer that he was okay trading D for a F because he liked our depth. He said that if he had to play Fitzgerald or Borgen in the NHL due to injuries, that would be fine and wouldn't stop him from making a move. 

There is a glut of like 6 guys insulating them at this point, and he's still talking about "retaining depth for November." 

Things aren't consistent

Apologies to PA and the rest of Team Stormcloud. I was on your side back then.

But I felt this hard tonight.

If this team has even an ounce of pride that New Years Eve game will be an Isles-Pens Fight Night style bloodbath with Tampa players being beaten all over their ice to the point they go crying to the league like bullies who can dish it out but can't take it.

Unless you apply the “we’re not ready yet” Occam’s Razor. 

Admittedly, the one thing that doesn’t seem to fit is the Skinner extension. Though perhaps they foresaw the mutiny that may have arisen had they let him walk.

I’ll give Bogo a pass for not stepping up on Cernak only because he just came back. Larry and Lazar have no excuses. Whatever happened to physical Risto? I don’t see him fighting but crushing someone in the corner would’ve been nice.

As am I. There’s something seriously wrong when management is all on board with being soft.

There is something wrong when you stockpile 27 defenseman knowing help is needed at forward, and do nothing about it since June.

Yeah and I’m sure there’s tons of excuses. Salary caps and whatever else. 

Let’s just waste another season away, waiting for everything to become perfect.
