Give Numminen a rest

Now that Tallinder is back, (hopefully for good) it's time to give this old warhorse a rest. Send him

to Florida for a few days or something. The guy is going to be valuable down the stretch but

he should be relegated to a role similar to James Patrick when he was playing. Don't forget, he's 38, with a heart ailment, and it's tough enough to keep up with these 20 year old kids. Paetsch is capable enough to play on a regular basis.

i like paetsch on wing, too (hell, i like the kid more and more no matter where he plays) -- but zed's right: you have to rest teppo proactively in february and march -- don't wait for a pulled groin, etc. to happen before realizing he needs a break.

Teppo needs a full playoff beard... rest him now so he has a chance to grow one... Not no stinkin Woolley Goatee either! I want a Grizzly Dumont Beard!

After seeing last year's playoffs, Teppo can't really grow a good beard. However, his was better than Briere's peach fuzz.

 

I know that's really harsh, but Briere had as much facial hair as I have fingers and toes.

 

BTW, regardless of what you think of Mike Commodore of the Hurricanes, his was one of the best playoff beards I've ever seen. (Is he related to Carrot Top the comedian?)
