I'd love to be on the sideline to hear what the heck the punter's explanation was

Apparently the OneBuffalo app is a dumpster fire

I'm coming around on Hutton. I still think that if they give him too much workload he'll falter, but he's playing better than his contract at the moment. I love his stick work. A goalie who can move the puck is hugely important to this team.

The only thing I expect from Everton is that they'll Bills it up. They didn't Bills it, which makes it a very nice win.

It's that Mittelstadt line that is killing me. Casey, though inexperienced, has shown great playmaking ability. Girgensons is incapable of cashing in on anything that Casey will give him. It's a complete waste of Casey's talent.

I would almost rather have Larsson on that line rather than Girgs. And Mittelstadt needs to swap with Berglund.

Uhhh

I don't like these lines.

Aaaand Everton finally gets back to back wins. Good win today over another middle of the pack squad. Maybe things are finally coming together.

I'm expecting a completely different game from Jack tonight.

You take that back. The goathead is wonderful even if it's wrong. But the slug is reprehensible in its entirety.

I wanna say like...$15? It was reasonable for arena food given the high quality.

I had a polish sausage with waffle fries. It was better than anything I've ever eaten at KBC. And their craft beer selection was very nice.

The food I had at the Honda Center in Anaheim was funkin excellent.

I think the players picked the song that the fans chose during the vote. And I would be. But maybe that's just me. I tune in with my environment pretty hard.

Didn't they pick the goal song?

I'm right there with you on Eichel. I mentioned in the GDT that last night was the first night I've allowed myself to feel a little sour about Jack. I've been patient because I know he is still growing as a player, but I feel like he's been in the league long enough now that I'm reaching the end of that grace period. I need to see him do the kinds of things Bergeron or Giroux do on a nightly basis. It's high time for him to be a complete player.

I think a Mike Peca on the bench would have a much greater effect than a Ted Nolan behind it. I'm coming around to taking a non-neutral stance on Phil, but I'm having trouble not looking to the players as well. Jack specifically. His effort was tragically poor last night for a guy wearing the C now.

I was thinking this last night when I saw all of them reaching for pucks when a little body contact was right there to slow the opponent down. They play like it's a no-checking beer league, like it's Da Beauty League. It's not good enough.

You could just pay a few more bucks a month to solve that problem...

I think you and I saw the same positive things, but for me the glaring omission is Jack. He was largely missing from the game in any positive respect, which at this point should not be the case. I should never walk away from a game thinking that Eichel didn't do his job.

I think this is worth noting. He took a lot of flak for the vets last year and it would be a very telling sign from him if that doesn't continue this year. It would say to me that his expectations are much higher and he's not afraid to put blame on the players.

I know you're joking, but tonight was the first time I've allowed myself to get a little sour about him. I'm beginning to have doubts.
