Bad but physical teams are easy to play against. Talented teams are hard to play against.

He's 22nd among centers in points per game at .78, ahead of names such as Kuznetsov, Johansen, Giroux, Bergeron. Toews is at .83. He's giving us 94% of Toews' production for 71% of the cap hit. 3rd best CF% on the team behind Reinhart and Moulson (lol easy minutes), 2nd best GF% (again, lol Moulson minutes). All while facing the toughest competition. And who cares about cash payout? The only thing fans should ever care about is cap hit.

You can't pine for those teams and laud their making of the playoffs all while excluding the coach. Thanks for playing, though.

Mike Harrington, that you?

I've been letting my imagination get the better of me lately (see: musing about Tom Brady retiring after this season), but when is it time to shift the conversation from whether Bylsma is back next season, to whether he finishes this season? First beer on me at the SS meetup if you can get a "fire Bylsma" chant going that's audible on TV.

You're gonna need more than bleach.

One can be critical of the team and unsatisfied with where it's at without pining for Ted Nolan.

I'd rather watch this period on loop than baseball in March.

Karl Alzner is the absolute last thing this defense needs. The complete opposite of what we're missing. I don't know how you could be willing to give up anything of value given Murray's injury history (I swear I thought this before he lasted about 5 minutes tonight :lol: ). What do you think the right price is?

Have we reached maximum meh?

No, because whenever Gorges tries to pass, it misses the mark by 5 feet.

They save the Philly announcers for when we play them on NBCSN.

Give it time. Mehsery loves company.

We may finish worse than the season immediately following the tank. I don't find it odd that people think we shouldn't have taken a step backwards in year two.

It's official: LBJ has lost Cronkite.

I'm so meh about this game, I didn't even know it existed.

Meh.

DON'T KILL MY DREAM SO QUICKLY DAMMIT!

*dons tinfoil hat* They refuse to trade Garoppolo. They go big in free agency and trades, which is very un-Belichickian. Is it possible that Brady has hinted internally he may be retiring?

Nothing would scream this season louder than beating Columbus on the back of Deslauriers and Gorges creating offense.

Well played :lol: I really think Dunleavy will come into his own once it's his gig.

No, he's a center. What's that you say, he hasn't played center until a week ago? Doesn't matter, he's a center. #bylsmalogic

The only thing I want to know is who the four crazy people who want Gorges back are. I think even old man lover* Dudacek is ready to toss him overboard! :p *Not that there's anything wrong with that.

1 win in the last 8. What if we finish the year something like 4-11? I'm not saying I bet it, but it's not crazy to think we could end up with fewer points than last season. In the event that comes to pass, I'd say there's a real chance he's canned.
