Its always next year with this team.

Can he score on a regular basis in the A ?

Everyones equally bad?

I seem to remember the internal competition mantra from the preseason. I’m not sure if any of that is being applied or if it was a feel good story to make us believe this team operated like every other team in the league. Jimmy Vesey to me seems like every other average to below average fringe player. Its hindsight but I’m not thrilled with what he brings. Change my mind Jimmy.

Yes. Yes he is.

Ok. I’ve done enough whining. I’m still breathing. Life is good. See you all Saturday.

Who cares how we tied it up Marty we lost.

I think Ralph is starting to like the losing

Losers

Sam shut your trap. You highsticked him.

I didn’t convince myself that ROR was a cancer. Heard it bandied aboot here off n on. Of course the return JBot got was fair value for a locker room cancer, not a Conn Smythe and Stanley can winner.

Why did Skinner not give that puck to Jack ?

Well. Not sure why I expected any different.

In the new NHL players 30 or over are a fools game. Lord no to Ladd.

One first line and three fourth lines. This team is bound to win some games. Go Sabres !

These bottom 6 guys are what they are. None of them except Okposo have ever been expected to produce offence and Okposo only ever did it while with the Islanders. Frankly getting any offence out of any of these guys is a bonus when it does happen. E-Rod=fringe, Vessey=Meh, Okposo=DLD(done like dinner),Larson=defence, Girgs=defence . Until JBots upgrades the 2nd line the 3rd will continue to suck and so on. So its a waiting game. Sucks to be us.

2 games in 2 weeks is crap. I miss hockey.

Yeah me too. Where are ya Deluca ?

They’re soft. They can’t score because no one wants to pay the price. No one goes where ya gots to go. Ya gots to get dirty. Crash the friggin net. Quit with the perimeter shite. And quit with the fashion statements. Get rid of the damn fancy scarves and the wingtips. Bring yer friggin workboots. Roll up yer sleeves and get back to work. ok I’ll stop. But damn that felt good.

I seem to remember Ralph saying something to the effect that we’re not going to confuse these guys with too much structure we’re going to let their genius ( that was his word ) and hockey instinct take over. Imo when you are playing a team that has structure and has been playing those structured systems for a number of years pitting a team of players who’s only structure has been losing and saying we’re going to let these mostly young guys fly by the wire and figure it out as they go, I’m not sure that will work. With real experienced players maybe. I think this may be a weakness of Ralphs plan.

Yeah I picked that photo off facebook and it was a meme/joke going round. They are actual broadcasters and they are good. I’ve seen them interviewed and they are diehard hockey guys. Good for them.
