    The more I see that play by Kucherov on Sobotka the more pissed I get. What a scumbag

    The ref was staring right at it too and had the nerve to tell Ralph he didn't see it

    I honestly don't know what was more ridiculous: that the dirtbag wasn't given a major and sent off or that he wasn't at least hit with an interference call because at the time he delivered the hit the puck was somewhere in Malmo.

    I had them in the 79-84 point range and adjusting for opponent I think they've played more or less to that level, at least in terms of how often they carry the play against which teams 

    If you are spot on with that projection then at 81 points there was a 5 point improvement from last year. By last year's standings that would be the 8th worst record in the league. If that happens certain people in this organization are going to have a LOT to answer for.

    Hank has a point.  It was a widely-enough believed rumor that it would have shaken me (were I in Hasek's skates) even if it just were a rumor.  And I'm not sure it was just a rumor.

    Even though at this point if it were true Hasek would very likely have done what Eric Wynalda did a few years back and verify that DC Scum Captain 4 Life John Harkes had an affair with his wife before WC 98 (Which led to Harkes being dropped from the squad) he has repeatedly said there is no truth to it whatsoever.

    First time in what seems like ages that whatever is needing fixing is not the coaching. That's been fixed I believe.

    I certainly believe it's far better than it was but two things I've noticed so far disturb me:

    1) The line changes have been a real issue. In addition to multiple too many men penalties it feels as if we constantly execute a line change when it either kills off a rush the other way or leaves us in a position to get toasted the other way. Haven't got burned bad by this yet but if it continues it's only a matter of time.

    2) It is painfully obvious that teams have figured out that when they hit us with an aggressive forecheck we look like chickens with our heads cut off. From what I've seen there has been no attempt to try and make a tactical adjustment to counter this. We all know there is a system in place, but if something isn't working you have to fix the problem.

    I'm hearing conflicting reports the arena store is sold out Adidas 50th jerseys. I know a couple local stores have them and quantities online are slim at NHL shop, cool hockey and ice jerseys.  Anyone go to the game last night and can clarify?

     

     

    I can confirm this is correct. Adidas distributed a set amount to the team store and will not be producing any more. The poor quality Fanatics replicas are still available (and I would like to say Fanatics taking over NHL merchandising has been horrible as the quality has plummeted while the prices have soared). Shame as that was going to be my birthday gift, maybe hit up Cozens junior team and get one of their jerseys instead.
