    I discussed this tonight with my daughter and my wife at dinner. We came to the conclusion that Dallas losing while Vegas also losing while giving it everything they have knowing that Dallas lost, but they couldn’t do it against Chicago, would be the most pain inflicting scenario.

    We are good at figuring out the most painful scenario. We have the experience to get the job done.

    It's so funny too because when he started with Vegas there were all these interviews and talks about what would it be like to be in the playoffs finally and how would Jack do in the playoffs, like it was a done deal. And at the time they were competing for top spot I think . What a crash and burn. 

    Am I the only one who wants the Snooze to fly Hammy in to the next Vegas press conference just to ask a smarmy question about that?

    From the Buffalo News:

    Lessons from Lindy

    Devils coach Lindy Ruff was asked a routine question after Thursday's morning skate about how technology mushroomed around the game in recent years and had an interesting take on the proliferation of it on benches during games. 

    "I think the iPads sometimes are a distraction. Players are grabbing for iPads constantly," Ruff said. "There's times I'd just like to take the iPads and throw them away. I sense that almost everybody's looking at them.

    "Sometimes when there's a mistake, they're looking at justification, that it might not be me.  If you're barking out something we weren't good enough at, automatically somebody's reaching back and grabbing it and they want to go,  'Come on, that wasn't me.'"

    Sounds like a great President of Hockey Ops.

    Mitts and Krebs are a work in progress in their current roles.

    Wish each was showing at least a bit of a threat as a shooter.

    I'll settle for feeding the hot shooter right now.  When teams adjust then they will be open for their own looks.

    I somehow don't trust Buffalo to turn it into a "nice thing," but 40 years is a long time, and maybe we have matured as a people. I guess give it a shot?  

    I don't either. Left to Buffalo it will be an empty room with kegs of Cream Ale and open piss troughs.

    For $30 in the 300s, or for $whatever anywhere, you deserve all of this.  

    Also, ten-year-old me was scared of you adults drinking waxers in SRO at the top of the oranges.  I'm not kidding; you guys drinking and smoking did frighten me.  Keep that in mind?

    I was 14 up in the SRO at the time, and I'm suggesting an area not a total free-for-all.  Wells Fargo just made a nice thing at the top of the arena.
