K-9

As the father of a just turned 15 year old daughter, that's the reaction I had as well. Creepy as hell. If I were the father of one of those girls and present when Trump said that, I'd have gone off on him. Did he really think he was just being charming or something? Has been surrounded by yes-man and sycophants so long that NOBODY takes him aside and tells him how phucked up he sounds?

When is Doris Day, anyway?

Just re-watched the first period and these guys came out skating in mud, passed like crap, turned the puck over like it was going out of style, and had no energy. Like they were feeling sorry for themselves. That's on DD. A good coach can make the Eichel injury a galvanizing event that the team rallies around. I got the impression DD coddled them instead of challenging them. Not surprised because DD was in hangdog mode himself all afternoon after Jack went down. I fully believe that motivation and attitude, etc,. are personal responsibilities that coaches actually have little control over in their players, but that doesn't mean coaches should exhibit their lack of confidence and that's the impression I got from DD last night. Others much more knowledgeable can argue the merits of his systems, but I don't want a coach that feels sorry for himself and I think DD did that last night.

Nelson and Franson were a train wreck all night. DD cannot pair them together again. Ever. I am losing faith in DD's "plan."

Him and Nelson are a trainwreck together.

Yep. That's his only niche.

I find your mocking of Rob Ray's grasp of the language quite luderous.

Some wha?

Counsel is out of order.

Miller!

That's unfair.

Way to go Matty Mo.

I vaguely remember Ennis having puck possession skills. Am I imagining that?

Risto, I think. EDIT: Never mind. McCabe.

Kane sucks on breakaways.

Skating like we think it's impossible to win with a few guys out of the lineup. Gotta wake up. DeLo needs to mix it up with somebody I think.

Nelson pu$$ied out behind the net.

ROR definitely not moving like usual.

I didn't think that was possible, but yeah. He is the snail on the back of the turtle that yells, "Wee!"

Franson needs to go.

Lost half of what he had left yesterday.

I bow to your dedication. I remember seeing you on TV at that game and thinking how cool it would be to have that jacket. I didn't put the memory together with your earlier pic, but as soon as I saw that crowd shot from the TV, I remembered instantly. Great stuff.

Can't believe you ruined that jacket like that! Or I can't believe you ruined that logo like that!

Derek Grant. Remember that name folks. He simply won't be denied.
