Feels like Alamo mode, but they're mostly keeping them from getting really good looks.

They were still terrible last year with a lot of the same players. They ran Jarmo out of town on a rail because he was viewed as a miserable failure of a GM. It's amazing what the right coaching hires can do for a young roster.

And Eveson has them playing really well, the whole team. Love Lindy, but would rather have had Dean. I know his playoff record is bad, but...baby steps. He iced some really good Wild teams and now is doing wonders with a CBJ team with a ton of youngsters that was expected to be bottom of the league again.

Glad to get the W on Rayzor's night. Kulich is gonna be a good one.

He's an immensely talented player. We need to find somebody that can unlock that talent full-time, not just in flashes.

Rest of these guys must've filled up on bread before the game.

We need a few more Zuckers.

This team is so predictable.

Yeah, there's a time and place. That ain't it. I could be remembering wrong, but I feel like there was some booing of TP during RJs ceremony.

Just played a good game and beat the hated Bruins, the Preds stink - yeah, this feels like one they blow a 2-0 lead and lose 5-3.

This. If healthy and engaged, Pettersson is a top-20 player in the league. He has an elite shot and is an excellent defender. The sharp drop in production that followed signing his contract is very concerning. He has a reputation for being aloof. Did he get paid and now doesn't see the need to go all out? I don't know, that's pure speculation. The knee thing, I guess I don't know enough about him to feel too far one way or another about it. He's been very durable the previous 3 seasons. Sometimes guys just have an injury that disrupts a season then he's fine. If he's this unhappy in VAN, how's he going to act in Buffalo on a team that looks like it has a ways to go? Then again, maybe a change of scenery reinvigorates him. It's just a very weird situation. Last year, the Canucks quest to extend him was a big story, now 12 months later they want to unload him? Something is off there.

It this sludge fart of a season, I'll enjoy these little wins. On to the next one.

BENSON

WE WANT 7!

Damn, Benson almost had one. THIS is how you play with a lead. DAMN, UPL!

JJP! Dual hatties!

JJP

And when I come back the Bruins score. I can take a hint.

I step away and they scored again. Maybe this is the universe's way of telling me I should watch less?

It's been their M.O. all season and not seeing a shift yet tonight.
