No one can say what he thinks. We CAN objectively say he doesn't care about communicating with the fans. The VP of tix got some quotes for the season ticket holder... sorry, season ticket member... letter. The rest of us? Zippo.
It really is bizarre. I wasn't even watching the Flyers who have lost three in a row. Thorny was spot on a while back. The only thing missing has been two or three more wins by the Sabres.
Dan's having a season where he either realizes he's there for life, like Rick, or knows he's getting fired.
I will never understand his methods, but he might just be the perfect voice for this group. Pretty good when he wants to be.
The Wings just have to lose one game in Florida. Boston has to help out with the Caps. Then if the Sabres win two more games at home they're two back of both Detroit and Washington.
What are the fancy stat odds of that happening? Probably not great but probably not extremely unlikely either.
But if it happens what are the playoff chances then?
It's like rolling two Yahtzees in a row. Not common but I've done it.
