Faceoff specialist (it'll work... it'll work)

I didn't jinx him! I didn't!

Arbitration! And entertainment!

Just singing old Lennon songs?

Our overconfidence is our weakness...

This I would think is inexperience. He's a puck-moving D and doesn't have an older experienced protector to rely on (think Tallinder for Myers). This is the most games he's ever played in a season... probably getting worn down a bit.

We got a participation certificate and get to draft again next year?

This is ridiculous. If a team is hurt by the media, then they're not professionals. Now... if a team is weak, I can see them being easily swayed by a good home crowd. This team plays well on Saturday afternoons/mornings (with lots of kids) so maybe they respond to an exuberant crowd. But the team needs to make its crowd exuberant, not rely on it. (Football excluded, as there are only 8 home games.)

Sigh. So... we're incapable of overcoming an injury to our 4W (Okposo), a teenage defenseman (with any of the other 8 NHL-caliber defensemen), and a rookie winger (I mean, sure, Olofsson is great). Other than that, we're playing with a backup goalie. Playing the injury card excuse is: denied.

So, do we have any stats on that PP? One faceoff (the initial one), how many times acrost their blue line? how many seconds of O-zone time? No shots?

Deesa baby booff-alllo issa gonna die. Oopsie day! wait, wait, wait, no , that's Jar-J not RJ.

Do you think Rick Jeanneret would make a good nature show host... like Attenborough or Marty Stouffer?

Who's the more inept... the team that tanks, or we fans that follow them?

This season is getting worse all the time. (it's a paraphrased quote, I'm not predicting an Eichel injury! Knocking on various spaceship frame composites)

Eichel injury while still scoreless?

Looks like the last-second goal didn't have any carryover to the second period.

I guess giving up constant odd-man rushes wouldn't feel so bad if we were pressuring/threatening in their end... they were getting a great save/bounce and then springing the breakaway. But no... they're just taking the puck away easily in their zone or stopping us at their blue line and instantly converting that into a rush.

Can he score goals, too?

All too easy...

You can't give up last-second goals in the period... I really hope that rattles the 'Lanche.

We went 14-21-6 in that stretch.

... in the locker room, about 3 minutes earlier?

All the space!

The refs have let a lot go today. Jack's been grabbed and stick-held at every opportunity. He's working hard but it's frustrating because there''s no space and a lot of jersey tugging. But there'll be space in OT.

Lazar is now with Skinner and Mojo.
