Skinner (9 million per) played 11 minutes.
We’re not winning anything or going anywhere so long as he is on the roster.
One of your most skilled and highest paid players cannot be one of your laziest.
He doesn’t deserve to be singled out - but this dynamic is such a massive problem imo.

I’m going to need to hear UPL call this team out or something.

Greenway has played over 17 minutes
Thompson has played 13
Nothing about this team makes sense.

Detroit’s win over Columbus like I said….that will be looked back at as what saved their season when they clinch 8th.

Considering what he inherited - big pluses for Adams:
Developed UPL - stuck with him
Traded for Levi
Traded for Byram
Traded for Tuch
Locked up Tage, Dahlin, Cozens, Power - their best days are coming. Tage I have questions. But he’s at worst a 2C
Drafted Benson
Drafted Quinn
Traded for Greenway
Signed Clifton - he’s definitely come on the 2nd half
Places where his hands are tied
No one wants to come here
No one wants Skinner
Okposo was coming off a decent year they needed a vet he made the most sense
Terry wants Girgenson to stay
He wanted to do right by Eichel and Reinhart - but got good return.
Kane wasn’t signing hereGranato did lead a turnaround - but - fire him? He just signed an extension and..
Bad injury luck we didn’t need this year: Muel, Quinn, Tage, Tuch
Levi - would he have stayed at college if there wasn’t some sort of “we’ll give you a shot” deal. We could NOT lose him.
His mistakes?
Not mixing “toughness” with his youth. We get pushed around. We aren’t good enough to play with skilled veteran teams that are hard on the puck. We lack elite big forwards.
Our top forwards can’t take hits and don’t dish any out. They don’t like playing that way or coached not to.
This has to be addressed somehow. Greenway is a 4th line PKer on a playoff team. We need to play him in the top 9 because we’re so small and the forwards didn’t play defense
Overall grade from me is B-
Granato - C

Power is beginning to figure a lot of things out.
When he puts it all together this team can become what Vancouver is.
We don’t have the elite at forward right now that we do on defense and given where we were 12 months ago that’s stunning.
-
Vancouver has really played almost mistake free.
Completely locked in and well coached.
10 shots. 10.

Props to Greenway for setting up that Vancouver goal.
Great break out pass.

Overwhelmed but hanging in there… Need some attack and shooting… Get the message across, Coach
If I’m DG: *flips table* “F the Xs and Os, you just are flat out not hustling as hard as them, you don’t think you’re as good as them, you’re admiring their passing, you’re standing around when you don’t have the puck hoping someone makes a play, you pass the puck hoping it gets there - get your heads out of your ***es and play every shift like it’s the season. Because it is. I’m playing the guys that look like they give af.”
Actual DG: “You guys did a good job in those last 2 minutes to get a little more zone time. Excellent job. Just keep that up. My bad on the challenge that’s on me. Ok let’s go.”

Vancouver has lost 2 in a row. Knew they’d come out hot.
Just stay close.

That’s the kind of win that’s basically like yea they’re going to get in.

I officially hate Patrick Kane.
-
I hate Detroit.
Faceoffs matter.
-
3 penalties on Columbus none on Detroit who were out shot 20-5 in the first then the refs bailed them out.
Car up 3-0 on the Isles. -

What's the 7pm game tonight ? Devils vs Pens? But I want both to lose
columbus vs Detroit - too high a chance of being disappointed
only other choice is cheering for the Leafs. 🤮
whatever the game, I'll switch over to the Islanders at 7:30
The Flyers can easily get caught by the Caps and thus putting Flyer games in play.
We are 5 points back of Philly they have 1 game in hand.
Hopefully after tonight it’s 3 points.
Go Leafs……ugh.

The key to tonight's game: Byram/Dahlin v. Hughes/Hronek. Who wins their 5-on-5 time? Whose cuisine will reign supreme?
And now for the important part of the GDT!
Great, Terry! Don't get cocky.
I do think the only comparison across the board is the Beatles. They basically changed a generation's of American men's haircuts overnight, and continued the clothing, rise of drug culture, etc. for half a decade. The Mania, multiple films, an endless string of #1 albums and singles, spawning the entire Monkees (fabricated band, album, TV that became a #1 selling thing of its own), and inspiring a whole generation of regular folks into thinking "I could be in a band, too" on account none of them were musical virtuosos. They started their own record label, which James Brown was doing, but was he never going to get similar positive or massive publicity from it. And then there's the other musical side of it and their influence on taking the unordinary or new and making it instantly accessible and popular (e.g., ADT, tape loops, the "album" and its cover art as the centerpiece performance).
It helps that concert tickets are basically a minimum 4-5x higher in cost than they were in 2020, compared to just the general inflation over Elton John's career. It's a good time to be a live act.
I said to my wife she’s bigger than Michael Jackson. I think that’s the territory we’re in with her.
Bigger than peak Michael.

Do You Think We Make The Playoffs NEXT Year?

We need to replace a Greenway with a guy built like him but actually plays how he’s built.
We need to replace Skinner with a guy that is as skilled as him but tries.
Introduce Tage to the Deadlift.
Problems solved.
