Maybe disappointed, but certainly not pissed. I’ve been extremely impressed with what KA has done to fill this roster and farm system with young talent…for having an honest to Abe plan, not just some free-wheeling, fly by the seat of your pants, go for the quick fix by bringing in some mercs to “win now” plan. He’s aiming to build a winning team and culture by doing it from within. He knows where we need help and I’m certain he’s working on it, but I’m also pretty certain he won’t overpay or get fleeced just to make a move. He has his plan, he’s sticking to it, and I’m fine with that.

I’m guessing the reason he hasn’t been moved yet is the asking price is too high. I almost wonder if this is a tactic AZ is deploying so they can keep him while showing him they tried. I’d be all for adding him if the price is right. His injury history concerns me and I’d imagine many of the GMs that may be interested in him.

That's a damn gritty win. Went out there and took one without 2 of our 3 best players. Nice to have that kind of depth. And AT HOME no less!!!

I don't know that he'll ever match him skill-wise, but Krebs could well be our Marchand...chirpy little guy that mixes it up and gets under everyone's skin. Hopefully less licking, though.

Mitts is a popular whipping boy, but he's quietly putting together a pretty damn decent year pacing to finish with 50-55 points.

On top of 4 points, Cozens has won 60% of his draws today. Nice.

First NHL Gordie Howe Hat Trick?

I frickin' love Cozens, man

Quinn's play over the last several games has been magnificent. I kind of had the impression he was gonna end up being a bit of a one-dimensional player offering decent goal scoring and not much else. That was flat wrong.

Need to keep scoring. There isn't a lead I feel is safe with UPL right now. He's been a mess since the break.

Random thought after 1 period: We have TNT and Cozens locked up at what are going to look like bargain contracts. Hell, TNT's contract already does. UPL really needs to work on his rebound control. It's to a point that every time there's a SOG with him I wince. I really cannot wait until we don't have to be tortured with Bryson and Clague. Our defensemen really struggle with clearing the puck out of our zone. I really love Mangos, but wish they weren't such a pain in the arse to eat.

We have a pretty damn good team right now and still have the #1 farm system in the league. Just don’t get people’s issues with KA. Imagine this team 2-3 years down the road…and they’re building towards long term contention.

Not even close. I was a big KT fan back in the 90’s/early 2000’s. That apple fell waaaaay far from the tree. My favorite was how he used to try to antagonize the Oilers until Zach Kassian bludgeoned him after which he’d simply turtle if Kass even glared at him.

So, much of the fanbase melts down after the TOR game, then the team goes down to Florida and takes both games in a back-to-back. Overreactions like that make you look like a knob. This is a young team learning to be a young GOOD team. Of course, the same fans will be all over social media calling for Meatballs’ and KA’s job the next time they lose. Anderson was PHENOMENAL tonight. Just outstanding.

Tkachuk is such a fake tough guy. Tries to start *****, as soon as somebody stands up to him, notice how he backpedals. Been that way his whole career.

Skinner empty netter for the Hattie, plz.

Alexa - Play “I Wanna Dance With Somebody”

GET THE FACKING PUCK OUT OF OUR ZONE

I don’t wanna do Alamo again tonight.

Okay, just go get it back, lads.

It really is astonishing how much better these guys are on the road. They’re like a totally different team. Now, go win the third…

BOOOOOSHHHHHH HAHAHAHA Well deserved!
